Hah, this is very like a question I just asked.

Um, christianity and belief in evolution aren't mutually exclusive terms.

Darwin was none of those things and it's well documented that he was a country gentleman and loving father.

I've never heard that Darwin was addicted to heroin or cocaine; what are your sources? Besides, Darwin wasn't even the first to put forth the theory of evolution. It was being circulated for decades before his book came out. He was just the first to put it forth in a popular form.

Here is my point why im not a Christian with no disrespect to the religion. It's just my thoughts and so i would like to share;
1) How can a man be son of god? And suffer for humans?
Would your boss suffer for you? highly unlikely.
2) The Bible are written by different authors. Somewhere there must be different interpretation and so affects the originality of the bible.
3) The way they pray is in the church through singing? someone pls explain me the origin or how it came about pls?im beginning to wonder whether they enjoy singing more than praying.
4) And they confessed their sins directly to their fathers/or their priest... shouldnt we confess our sins to GOD directly? why do we need a third party?
5) And they hung their statue of Jesus, potraying him nailed to the cruxification .. to me that's a sign of disrespecting someone ....
Ok im sori what ive just typed , but like i said no disrespect to any religion but ive done my research and that's the reason for me not becoming a christian...

Persecution of Prophets

The great Prophets of religion have always been, at Their coming, despised and rejected of men. Both They and Their early followers have given their backs to the smiters and sacrificed their possessions and their lives in the path of God. Even in our own times this has been so. Since 1844 A.D., many thousands of Bábís and Bahá’ís in Persia have suffered cruel deaths for their faith, and many more have borne imprisonment, exile, poverty and degradation. The latest of the great religions has been “baptized in blood” more than its predecessors, and martyrdoms have continued down to the present day. With the prophets of science the same thing has happened. Giordano Bruno was burned as a heretic in 1600 A.D. for teaching, amongst other things, that the earth moved around the sun. A few years later the veteran philosopher Galileo had to abjure the same doctrine on his knees in order to escape a similar fate. In later times, Darwin and the pioneers of modern geology were vehemently denounced for daring to dispute the teaching of Holy Write that the world was made in six days, 199 and less than six thousand years ago! The opposition to new scientific truth has not all come from the Church, however. The orthodox in science have been just as hostile to progress as the orthodox in religion. Columbus was laughed to scorn by the so-called scientists of his day, who proved to their own satisfaction that if ships did succeed in getting down to the Antipodes over the side of the globe, it would be absolutely impossible for them to get up again! Galvani, the pioneer of electrical science, was scoffed at by his learned colleagues, and called the “frogs’ dancing master.” Harvey, who discovered the circulation of the blood, was ridiculed and persecuted by his professional brethren on account of his heresy and driven from his lecture chair. When Stephenson invented his locomotive engine, European mathematicians of the time, instead of opening their eyes and studying the facts, continued for years to prove to their own satisfaction that an engine on smooth rails could never pull a load, as the wheels would simply slip round and round and the train make no progress. To examples like these one might add indefinitely, both from ancient and modern history, and even from our own times. Dr. Zamenhof, the inventor of Esperanto, had to battle for his wonderful international language against the same sort of ridicule, contempt, and stupid opposition which greeted Columbus, Galvani, and Stephenson. Even Esperanto, which was given to the world so recently as 1887, has had its martyrs.

Because you're thinking is distorted in just your own question...this is just made up garbage and why people like you help us think Christianity is wrong and full of liars like you...

IS? You do realize the man has been gone for a very long time, don't you? He is no longer "is" and he no longer is thinking...

Calling it an "idea" is a bit misleading. Its more a carefully studied and systematically examined scientific theory. Unlike religion, of course...

I believe in G-d, but be careful not to discount science. There are a multitude of ways in which you can reconcile the two without disavowing your faith or ignoring fact.

Human beings do not like absolutes. Christianity is an absolute. Father God is absolutely right all the time and only Jesus is the Way to Him. This is not acceptable by people who are enamored with their own importance.

Not every body who doesnt agree with Christianity believes in Darwin.I personally don't agree with either one of them. I DO believe there is a Supreme Being, but that doesn't mean that it is Christ and or his father.
So don't lump all of us together (the ones who doesn't believe in Christianity together.

I am a Christian and I assume you are to. We should not be dismayed because the Word of God says it would happen. The 'world' has hated Christ from the beginning. It is nothing but an attack of the enemy. But you know, sometimes we 'Christians' are our own worst enemy. Well I will say some 'so-called' Christians. We ought to live our lives in a way that will not bring reproach on Christ but also draw others to Christ. Jesus said that if we lift Him up, He will draw all men unto Him. Let us continue to pray for them.

You know, you should really provide proof when you make wild accusations. It will really cut down on the times when you make yourself look like a complete jackass, like now.
