I don't see why evolution is a problem to the doctrine of Original Sin. God allows us to evolve to humans, and then gives the first groups of human beings souls. They originally live in harmony with God. Then, they decide to do their own thing. This is the Fall. What is your opinion of this? Do you believe this contradicts Christianity and the doctrine of Original Sin?

Evolution most definitely contradicts the Bible. Some people who call themselves theistic-evolutionists don't realize that staunch evolutionists laugh them to scorn because even they know this fact. Death came after the fall of man, evolution teaches death was around before man existed. The Bible is quite clear that God created the universe from nothing in 6 ,24 hr days. Evolution goes against the loving character of God. We don't evolve to humans, the Bible teaches, we were created humans from the beginning. The fossil record is looked at, mistakenly, by evolutionists as so called proof of evolution. The Genesis flood better explains the fossil record. Evolution teaches everything -the origins of the species,galaxies etc- came into being from nothing by accident all by itself. The Bible teaches the Almighty God created the universe from nothing. There are numerous other differences, too, but I think I've made my point. See the resources listed below and try yo lay your hands on them and read them

Our world in the present day is not evolving, in fact its dissolving. Global warming, etc. Man is not evolving, we are becoming farther away from God. Evolution is just a theory that the deceiver came up with to draw people like atheists farther away from God.

Evolution doesn't consider that the first humans were created by god. But since evolution is proving absolutely right, the church needs to adapt its stories to match reality, now that they cannot burn us any more.

If You believe in original sin, then you have to believe God made Adam and Eve and they immediately defied Him.So I do not see evolution in this at all.

i grew to become into raised (yet have when you consider that had perception in a very distinctive religon) and grew to become into taught there grew to become into no 'unique sin'. Catholics and another sects have faith in this unique sin concept. i don't have faith unique sin is ever stated in the Bible. The church and clergy coach it to objective to instill worry and shop people coming to church and 'shop 'em in line'. Jesus grew to become into supposedly born by ability of immaculate concept not Mary. He grew to become into born in the sinful international as a human guy yet to be waiting to be the 'son of God' He in basic terms had a dull ringer for a guy. He could not of had the dna of earthly mothers and dads if He grew to become into to ascend to heaven. I now have faith Jesus grew to become right into a non secular messangerand not area of a Trinity. issues are continuously evolving, so evolution is a fact. This occurs so slowly that for the time of our lifetime we will not brazenly observe something. people stay longer, are taller, and so on. and so on. plant life and animals are additionally changing and adapting or they die out. Evolution and faith can co-exist & you have faith the two however the favourite public of people % one or the different.

Technically, nothing CAN prove God is non-exsistant or that evolution is right... because God could have set everything up for us to find and make our own decisions. Science can't really PROVE anything! It's so conffuuusing!

If you forego literal reading of the bible, eating from the Tree of Life is the spark of conscience, when the concepts of good and bad replaced consequences as motivation for behavior.

Exploring the metaphorical meaning of scripture is perfectly valid-only the literal interpretation of the bible needs to be rejected out of hand.

Ooooh be careful KC! Start believing in that "evil-ution" and might get your named blocked out of the Yam's book!
Pssst--by the way, trying to use critical thinking skills and reason is not going to please Sky Daddy! Remember the whole faith being its own evidence thing?
