Isn't "spin" a way of distorting the truth, i.e., lying!

So smoking is a sin?

And I think maybe you misunderstood, I don't have to smoke to relieve stress. But if I smoke, it can release stress.

Yeah, which is a sin. So why does religion try to lie about evolution?

I didn't say smoking is a sin. I just didn't say it wasn't? What real good is gained from it?

God created the earth, all creatures as well as man. We did not evolve from apes. What makes you so sure that man didn't lie? Men lie all the time? What makes you so sure that the Bible is lying?

It can create stress too if the police caught you with that "dime" bag. Or however they sell it nowadays.

Um, because evolution makes a hell of a lot more sense and there is pretty damn good evidence that the theory is fact.

Because the Bible told me so in the Book of Genesis 2:7.

Not nearly as weird as it sounds to say that something that could be as fictional as Charlie Brown created everything. No mention of how, why or with what, but "he" just did it.

I'd say that it is fact that the earth has been here for some time. I remember learning about the oldest human remains being found at Oldivai Gorge by Dr. Leakey. However, he didn't excavate all of Africa and that does not eliminate God from creation.

So, I will continue to place my trust in God.

LOL, evolution doesn't have to be proved by humans--even though it basically is. It's real. But it doesn't matter how real it ever gets, because it destroys everything you believe so you'll never accept it.

Yes it does, he spoke it into being. "Let there be...", and it was!

That is the power of God that you just don't understand!

Perhaps the work, the love, the omnipresence, the omnicience, the omnipotence, of my God destroys everything you believe so you'll never accept Him!

If yes, did God create other live in this universe?

If Jesus is God and God was the Creator then how was the Earth around and inhabited by human beings (among many other things) long before Jesus was born.

My God is your God too! Whether you accept Him or not!

Yes, he created the universe. I'll have to perform some research regarding the question of life elsewhere in the universe. Our focus right now is living for the Lord here on earth.

True! However, Jesus is God on earth clothed in the "flesh" of man.

No he isn't you simple minded douche...He is a person who died long ago, and the reason you have a religion is to have "faith" that he exists in some after life
