If your feeble THEORY of "evolution" were real, don't you think God would have included it in the Bible?

Question

God created everything. How do we know this? Well it's in the Bible. The Bible is the word of God. God is infallible and Omnipotent. Therefore everything in the Bible is true. It's a fact.

If God wanted us to believe in your THEORY, he would have put it in the Bible. But he didn't. He told us exactly how we came to exist in the Bible, man came from the Earth, and woman came from man's rib. It's simple science. Why is it science you ask? Because God said so in the Bible.

He didn't say we were monkeys in trees eating bananas and playing with dinosaurs, no... He told us how we were made. So if evolution were real, don't you people think that "Origin of the Species" would have been included in the Bible?

God put in other theories to the Bible, like when the fall of the temple is described, that's gravity right there. And the eclipse of the sun, that's quantum mechanics, but no sign of evolution.

What is with you atheists using logic and reason all the time in your arguments!?

Of course COMPUTERS aren't in the Bible, as they were invented by Man. But if God invented computers, then they would obviously be in the Bible.

Answer 1

lmao, apparently these people haven't seen your answers. I see the theists in here don't question your statement of atheists being the ones using logic and reason, lol, this is rich.

Answer 2

Surely you jest. Surely you cannot expect any reader to take your "question" seriously.

"God created everything. How do we know this? Well it's in the Bible."

Your first statement is an assertion, not an argument. As to whether or not the poetic words of Genesis are intended to be taken as literal descriptions of physical fact, you need to learn what *midrash* means. Midrash was the usual way of telling stories in first century Judaism.

But even if you imagine the words of the ancient Hebrew myth refer to literal fact to be taken at face value, since when does finding words in a book prove the validity of a descriptive claim? A statement is true if it correctly describes facts, not because somebody says it in a book.

"The Bible is the word of God."

So is the Koran, the Book of Mormon, the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, etc., so which Bible is "the" Bible to you? Why?

"God is infallible and Omnipotent. Therefore everything in the Bible is true. It's a fact."

You need help with Logic 101.

"If God wanted us to believe in your THEORY, he would have put it in the Bible. "

Why? Does God have to obey your rules?

"But he didn't."

How do you know? Prior to 325 AD, there were hundreds more books than the ones adjudicated then to be the canon of Scripture. Do you think the Council of Nicaea was authorized by Jesus of the Apostles?

"He told us exactly how we came to exist in the Bible, man came from the Earth, and woman came from man's rib. It's simple science. Why is it science you ask? Because God said so in the Bible."

Why not accept instead the Mayan creation story? Or the Hindu ones? Isn't the test of which one is correct, not religious belief, but the evidence of the natural world?

Answer 3

Basically? Because people wrote the Bible, not God. That makes everything in it a myth as much as Harry Potter is (aside from a few historical references).

The Myth of creation was written to compete with other cults around at the time. Since they had no science nor facts to find out how the world was created, they told a tale. That tale became an oral-legend and later was put in writing.

I'm ready to believe God created the universe some 14.5 billion years ago if someone can back it up with actual, tangible proof. But I'm not going to believe that Earth was created 6000 years ago (knowing that Mesopotamia is 10000 years old doesn't help) in 6 days and that Earth is the center of the universe.

Answer 4

If you really think about it the Bible couldn't be the work of God.As you and others like to remind us all God is a very rational . pragmatic individual that intentionally created a very rational universe.In essence God is an engineer. The problem is that the Bible was not written or inspired by an engineer. An engineer would not have entrusted a message for etenity to paper- he would have carved in in stone. An engineer would have left many maps and diagrams explaining the universe. The Bible has none of those things so it couldn't have been written by the same person who created the universe.
Three hundred miles or so from Jerusalem are the Pyramids of Giza which vividly show exactly how an engineers brain would handle delivering a message to eternity.

Answer 5

You're not too bright, are you?
Do you think it is insulting the atheists when you accuse them of using "logic and reason" all the time in their arguments? Maybe you should try it some time!
Don't you think that creationism is a feeble theory? If God is so mighty and powerful, then why did he need a day of rest, especially when all he supposedly did was speak the universe into existence?
Why does everything in the bible have to be 100% accurate to have relevance to christians? If your mentors would face this possibility, then maybe christianity wouldn't seem so far-fetched. You can follow Christ's teachings and example without insisting that all of the ridiculous stories are literally true as well. Wake up!

Answer 6

Well first of all not every thing in the bible is a fact, and second: YOU'RE USING CIRCULAR LOGIC! Any argument that uses circular logic fails instantly. You can't say that (a) must be true because (b) says so and we know that (b) is right because (a) says so. Humans didn't evolve from monkeys, monkeys and humans share a common ancestor. Was electromagnetism in the bible?, no you say?, then everything should then fall apart by your logic. Believe in the bible if you want, just don't use circular logic.

Answer 7

I don't accept the bible as anything but an old text which formed the basis of two religions. It contains zero scientific validity and shaky historical validity at best. The only reason you accept it as the "truth," is your parents taught you to believe in it. If you grew up in a muslim family, the koran would be your "truth." If Tom Cruise was your father, scientology would be your "truth."

Stating that the bible describes gravity and quantum mechanics is so laughable that I'm wondering, on second thought, if you're just a troll.

Answer 8

firstly God didnt write the Bible - a bunch of people wrote it.. and several stories were disregarded when it was finally compiled as one work... even then it was mis-translated wrong in several places, and re-edited and re-written over time to serve the purpose of the times (eg King James version is most famous for many changes from original text).
monkeys didnt eat bananas and play with dinosaurs becuase dinosaurs and monkeys didnt exisit at the same time..

Evolution is obviously real - look at a dog and you have proof - ALL dogs from the tiny Chihuahua, to the Dalmation, to the Great Dane - ALL evolved from the WOLF!!

I could go on and on - but sadly people are often blinded by religion and the fear to investigate other options..

how can you beleive in something that doesnt allow you to check out other options without the threat of "you will go to hell"?

Answer 9

And God created the earth in 7 literal days and it's 6000 years old too. Oh by the way, it's flat too. Science proved that wrong didn't it?

Notice that mammals all have a similar body structure and design? Notice that Neanderthals buried their dead and had a clear sense of a God of some sort and an afterlife? We are not Neaderthals, but clearly they were human and we are related to them.

Evolution didn't happen as Darwin said, for it was guided by the hand of God for the explicit function of producing human beings, our physical bodies, however, it did happen.

Not Creation OR Evolution, but Creation AND Evolution!

Answer 10

are you Mormon or something?? lol ok joking aside the theory of evolution quite isn't that loopy or accessible or disagreeing with the bible. All it fantastically plenty says is people evolve over the years. are you able to argue with that? NO people get smarter, people in Africa are black, why is that? cuz of the sunlight. it quite is an stepped forward trait. people in less warm climates advance greater hair. Why? cuz it is less warm there. people and animals evolve to climates and outdoors impacts over the years. over a protracted long long term. in comparison to you are able to placed a funds in a zoo at present and that's a infant day after today. i'm christian and that i do extremely believe in evolution. And to be effortless its Christians such as you who turn people faraway from Christ. perchance you will possibly desire to attempt being a splash greater open minded and not so judgmental...what does the bible say approximately that one? i believe its someplace alongside the traces of do not choose that's what God is for??

Answer 11

The bible is a book that was written by man.. which is ultimately corrupt...
The bible has many mistakes and contradictions which make your so called evidence irrelevant...

Now on the the evolution part...
How is the bible fact? it is a book? Is it because it is a THEORY also?

You bible thumpers are so naive it is amusing to no limit...

Now about the Facts... Evolution is just that, a theory, it isnt fact... it has factual evidence, yes, but is yet to be proven, along with your so called god...

Evolution does not mean we came from monkeys...
Clearly you are mistaken...
Scientists alot smarter than yourself clearly state that they have done genetic research that proves that homosapiens and Hominoidea which are monkeys, came from common ancestry... where does that state that we evolved from monkeys?
It says that we evolved yes, but we evolved similar to monkeys...

I think that instead of letting your life be controlled by some falsified book, which has no evidence whatsoever of truth, you shoud live your life your own...
