Did God transform the grain into the mouse. Is that evidence of creation?

One of the classic spontaneous life examples used for evidence of creation.
I like the irony.

No, God did not 'transform' the grain into the mouse, and you 'know that' is not what really happened. What you did, though, was 'god-like,' and the mouse was VERY GRATEFUL, at least until he had eaten all of that grain and snuggled down in those rags for a nice nap ... then he might have realized that he 'could not escape the jar' until/unless YOU turned him loose again. THINK ABOUT THAT.

A few years back, we were tearing down the old wilderness cabin, and camping outside as we worked. One evening, I spilled a large can of popcorn on the ground and just left it there because, let's face it, I wasn't about to crawl around for popcorn kernals that I wasnt going to eat.
The next morning, prior to breakfast, we noticed there was not one kernal on the ground. The days' task was to rip up the floor in the cabin. Lo and behold, there was this huge pile of popcorn kernals under the floor! It took the mice less then 8 hours to move it all, all the while there were dogs running loose.
Mice are very ambitious and can move a lot of food in a short amount of time. In your situation, as the mouse could not make it back out of the glass jar, I'd guess he ate until he could no longer move.
To think there was a transformation made is worth of a giggle, but certainly not anything to call up a league of scientists to say you have proof of the creationism theory. If nothing else, it makes a good story. Have a good day eh! :-)

What happened to the rags?? And what do your neighbours think of these strange goings-on??
No he transformed the rags into a mouse and the mouse eat all the grain.

Well, this is the type of logic that went on before the Scientific Method. "Spontaneous generation" was one of the terms used.
Similar - I left a piece of meat out on the counter for two weeks. Suddenly it sprouted maggots. Therefore the meat spontenously made the maggots.
Since that point, we have learned to record neutral evidence, and so we learn that mice probably ate the grain and stole the rags, and that maggot eggs probably were laid by the flies that visited the meat.
So no, the evidence would not point to creation.

No, the mouse ate the grain. Indirectly the grain is still in the jar, it's just in the mouse in the jar.

I just think that you had a really hungry mouse and those rags kept him good & warm after he ate all of the grains.

In an round about sort of way, the answer is yes.
The grain will be transformed into the mouse just as that roast beef sandwich I ate for lunch will be transformed into me.
God is pretty darned amazing, isn't (s)he...

How could that be creation if the grain was already there? Maybe it means you forgot to put the lid on the grain.

"The mouse ate the grain." Ridiculous! Everyone knows mice eat CHEESE! And that "Spontaneous generation" theory is just crazy, grain can't grow fur!
It's very obvious. You, my friend, have an infestation of Pixies!
