Evolution?

Question

I was looking at a bug today as it obeyed it's survival instinct and burried itself to get away...

I couldn't help but think even if evolution is true Evolution had to start somehow... That somehow is God.

I personally think that Gad created everything... how he did it? I dodn't know.

What do you think?

Answer 1

You are explaining something that "has to have a beginning" by using something ELSE that has to have a beginning. That solves nothing.

Answer 2

I do not see why the 2 sides fight so hard. The Bible says that a 1000 years is but like a day for God. God is responsible for all creation, but when we look at it from our point of view, it looks like what some call evolution. We can never have the type of long range vision God has. Maybe these people should both be more worried with obtaining the Peace of God than in being right.Really guys, would you rather have Peace or be right? In the end, not one of us can ever really have proof, "god works in mysterious ways". Quit putting his handiwork in the limits of your finite mind.Maybe then you can get back to Awe & true Peace.

Evolution is god's experimental workshop. That is where all the things that will work and won't work in this universe is tested. It kicked in immediately after he created the universe through the "big bang" and built the universe from the substances that come into being at that instant. It is still working on building the universe. It kicked in where life on this Earth is concerned when the first spiral, unstable, self replicating molecule was created (by god) and released on Earth. It tests all of the possible combinations and recombinations of this moleclue (DNA) producing all of the creatures that can be produced from it. Many of these were supporters of the environment which is necessary for humans to exist and continue on today. Many more proved to be unsatisfactory and unnecessary and are now extinct. The end result of biological evolution, humans, has now superceded biological evolution and is now in charge of all genetic progress of of all life on Earth in the future. These humans are now tackling the job that that humanity was designed to do, creating enough new knowledge to give it conrol of the universe so the universe can be prevented from self destrucion. The design of the DNA molecule caused it to build the entire environment in which humans now live, the oxygen in the air, the protein for food that is extracted from rock and soil minerals necessary for animal life, fossil fuels that is of such controversy right now.

Answer 4

you assume that it "obeyed it's survival instinct" - you do not know for certain, it is simply an empirical assumption and possibly based on a quite faulty educational system.
whether evolution or creation, both require faith and assumption - it boils down to which makes more sense...
i don't think that 'Gad' did, he happened to be a patriarch of a tribe in the Bible.
However, i do think that Elohim spoke and it was so...

Answer 5

You had that kind of effect on a bug? I suppose it recognize you as a predator. ah! just kidding !!

Most evolutionists will tell you that evolution has nothing to do with the origin of the universe, the origin of Earth, nor the origin of life (on earth or elsewhere). As far as they are concerned, simple life WAS here. Evolution concerns itself with the mechanism by which that simple life developed to ALL the life forms on Earth today. That leaves the most important question unanswered, doesn't it?

Answer 6

I and millions of others agree with you.

The Catholic Church does not take the stories of creation in the Bible literally. Catholics believe the book of Genesis tells religious truth and not necessarily historical fact.

One of the religious truths is that God created everything and declared all was good.

Catholics can believe in the theory of evolution. Or not. The Church does not require belief in evolution.

On August 12, 1950 Pope Pius XII said in his encyclical Humani generis:

The Teaching Authority of the Church does not forbid that, in conformity with the present state of human sciences and sacred theology, research and discussions, on the part of men experienced in both fields, take place with regard to the doctrine of evolution, in as far as it inquires into the origin of the human body as coming from pre-existent and living matter - for the Catholic faith obliges us to hold that souls are immediately created by God.

Here is the complete encyclical: http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/pius_xii/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xii_enc_12081950_humani-generis_en.html

The Church supports science in the discovery of God's creation. At this time, the theory of evolution is the most logical scientific explanation. However tomorrow someone may come up with a better idea.

As long as we believe that God started the whole thing, both the Bible and modern science can live in harmony.

With love in Christ.

Answer 7

Personally I think God created the world in seven days.

Answer 8

Of course God created everything, but not all at once. God created the Rocky Mountains, but we understand the geophysical processes that were involved, processes of His design and creation. Likewise God created all living thngs, and we understand the biological processes involved, processes of His own design and creation.

Answer 9

God did. There is NO WAY that gases just came together and made the world. If you put acid and bleach together, does it make another Earthj?!?!?!?!?!?!??!
And if we came from monkies, why are there still monkies today?
They(scientists) found evidence of God's story but nothing about the monkey thing.

Answer 10

I think you've got it. I do believe God created everything. He even told us that He has power enough to just speak things into existence! That's the powerful God I serve!

Answer 11

I believe that the fact of the holy spirit dwelling inside of a christian making him or her a new creation is evolution at work. What do you think????
