This is a question for johanrhdr and other christians?

Question

Do you really believe god made the earth only 6000 years ago and sent his son 2007 years ago to perform magic tricks and tell people that they should be nice to one another? Do you really believe in something that has the factual evidence, scientific provability, and credibility, of a Grim Brothers Fairy tale? Christians like to rant about the problems of evolution and scientific explanations, but fail to see that their version of events is completely laughable, completely lacking in any logic or any evidence what so ever, and insulting to human intellect!

Please excuse this rather arrogant and militant question. It is a rather agrovated resposne to the rather aggressive manner in which evangelical christians push their religion onto you...Please, tell me though, what makes your theory of existance, creation, more real, more right, than evolution which is based on science. Even if evolution is wrong, what makes YOUR version, involving Jesus Christ, right?

Answer 1

its not insulting to human intellect when its feasible that man himself will eventually become creators and understand how to manipulate matter and make lifeforms from scratch .. in that view subscibing to evolution is ludicrous ..

Answer 2

hmmm, forstly, the clocks were switched to zero, the world thus honoured the saviour, that time began at his birth, we are actually in the year 4007, but know it as 2007. So we start on a glaring falsehood, accepted as all religions accept the Christ. The Eastern Scriptures were written 4000 years ago. I am loathe to get into this debate, I feel it distracts us from truths and wisdom.Niether you or I could entirely prove or disprove timescale, and how would iether certainty avail us in any way.

These derisory blasphemies against the Christ I find alarming too. Fear God, for there is much to fear, those who fear the Lord fear nothing else, and they who dont live their lives in fear, antagonism and defenciveness. Should He, as fate, fortune and goodwill, reciprocate and turn on theheathens, your lives will feel the void far more than he of the absence of infidels.

You vitriolic tirade is equally laughable. When someone offers conjecture, If i disagree I always do so on the premise of an alternative view for them to ponder upon. Do not loot the populace of their only hope, trust and belief in a greater power presiding over us,.if you have no alternative to offer them. Yes a free speech but not at the expense of innocents and vulnerables.

I too have fallen out with God, sometimes it shows. His greatest defendant, following the slow and painful death of my beautiful, godly, virtuous and giving mother, the suffering of the good can be dismissed as a likelihood of a misdeed and punishment. I loathe with a venom, for the inexplicable pain of one who took all in her stride. I am
my fathers daughter.

However I will find my way to peace again. the comfort and peace of relinquishing all responsibility and placing ones faith into the hands of our creator is a luxurious comfort only the righteous are afforded.

The west is already spiritually impoverished. Dont destroy the last remnants of humanity, goodness and faith for the lack or anger you may have against your maker.

Answer 3

Who is the true fool?

The one who sees the order of the universe ranging from the macrocosmic to the microscopic and closes their mind to the evidence? The one who daily desperately hopes that the Christians aren't right about God, judgment, Heaven and Hell?

Or the one who sees the wonders of the universe around us, who sees the hand of an intelligent Creator in the order of the universe, and honors the One who created it? The one who based on this evidence believes in the words of the One who created Man for His pleasure and companionship?


Look at it this way. If we Christians are wrong, and there is nothing after death, what have we lost? Nothing. We have lived a fulfilling life.

But if we are right, and we will stand before Jesus Christ to be judged as to what we have done in this life, having rejected Him what have YOU lost?

Answer 4

I believe in God, and I DON'T for one minute believe that the earth was created 6000 years ago. I believe that is was closer to 5 billion years like most scientists attest. The bible describes 7 'DAYS' in Genesis chapter 1, but 'GENERATIONS' at the start of chapter 2. It is clear to us that God does not measure time the way we have. Reading the story of the creation in the Bible follows exactly in order the events that played out in Darwin's 'natural selection' studies. It's interesting to note that in Genesis, it says God created man on day/generation 6 of creation, then on day/generation 7 he rested. Then it was AFTER that where it mentions God planted the Garden in Eden, and placed Adam in that garden. To me that is clear evidence of prehistoric man.

I am Christian, and even I find it LAUGHABLE, that most christians deny the existence of prehistoric man. Yet there is so much evidence. So to me, I prefer to make my beliefs in God, and the scientific evidence of the world come together so that they agree with each other. It's quite easy to do if you look at both sides of the story, logically.

Answer 5

Well, a Creator is the only logical answer.


Btw, the greatest achievement that science has produced to date is the Atomic Bomb. And now our great intellect has produced nuclear weapons that are a thousand times more powerful than the first Atomic Bomb. At least, we, ( humans )
will all die knowing how smart we are. Good deal, eh?

Answer 6

What's your point?
Religions are based on faith. We all know that "faith" is believing in something that common sense and facts can't prove.
If you don't believe it, that's fine. But you don't have to trash anothers' faith just because you can. Does it make you feel better?

.....
In addition: Faith can't be explained by science. Based on science and physical findings, faith can't be proved. And solely based on that it would show that evolution would be more scientifically right. For those who don't have that "faith" in God and the Bible, it is very difficult to explain why we feel the way we do. We just "know" and have been touched in such a way that we "believe" it and don't need scientific evidence.

Christians are not niave or uneducated anymore than someone who solely looks on the hard facts. We know the facts and that creationism is pretty much impossible to prove, but we don't need them to have faith in what we believe. We just "know" in our hearts. And that is just as hard to explain than anything else.

Answer 7

Got a major problem with your question, dude.

My gf is a very definite born again Christian (yes, I used a capital 'C').

The problem that I have, however, is that I'm in your camp on this one. Love her to bits, would kill for her if necessary, she does not push the Christian thing with me (too much), and is as foxy as you could believe. But I also have issues with the whole 'who can confirm this' thing, ie, nobody.

So, I love her, not because she is a Christian, not despite her being a Christian, just because she is who she is.

So, to recap, she believes, don't think I do, but love each other to bits.

Where the f*ck does that leave me? Please! lol ;-)

Answer 8

Quite simply it is more likely. And yes I do believe that the world was made by God and Jesus was there when He did it.

Answer 9

My goodness. I think your hatred toward God spews everywhere.

Nonetheless, you should really check out this sight below. Also, check out "articles" in this site. I have whole video set. For years he has put out a challenge that he'll give any college professor $250,000 if they can show any real proof for the theory of evolution. (not micro-evolution which is just variations. Which is a bad way of saying adaptations of the same species.)

It takes more faith to believe in evolution and all it's disproven evidence than it does to believe in a Creator.

Answer 10

thats where faith comes in. you have to have faith to believe in the Higher Being as our Creator. Christianity is the largest faith in the world, so you are only one out of not a lot who don't believe in this. you better start believing or have someone save you a seat next the A/C in hell. (btw, only a handful of people are going to say something about how God didn't create everything, so you are better off deleting this q)
