I didn't contradict myself at all, you mistake a conceptual theory for a scientific one. They are very different things. A complex being like myself is the result of the six main elements of life, its the result of billions of years of evolution. If you say, "there is a higher power", its your job to prove that the power you talk about [i]does exist.[/i] Yes, if gravity were stronger, life on Earth as it is wouldn't exist. We would be too weak too combat the stronger pressures on our bodies. However, that doesn't mean other life wouldn't exist. A planet with higher gravity would have life adapted to it. Life on that planet would evolve to have stronger bones and muscles to combat the stronger pull.

Let's put it in the perspective of the whole world, not just humans. Do you believe that everything that had to happen in order for life to exist was just a coincidence? Everything around this world has a creator. I know it's not a great example but take a look at your phone. Computers, cars, dogs, cats etc. We manipulated to how we wanted everything I mentioned above. I don't think know one will know the definite answer until we die. Until then, we can have these friendly debates.

[/quote] It could have been, I don't see how that would be a bad thing or make me question the validity of my point. I would like go hear more about this from your point of view. [quote]Everything around this world has a creator. I know it's not a great example but take a look at your phone. Computers, cars, dogs, cats etc. We manipulated to how we wanted everything I mentioned above.[/quote] Everything that we have evidence to have had a creator indeed has a creator (phones, cars etc.) So, if you are walking through the woods and find an IPhone, you know it has a creator for 2 reasons. 1: We have evidence of Iphones being created, 2: Iphones don't occur naturally. If you make the same analogy except instead of saying IPhone, you say tree. The analogy doesn't work. Why? Because trees do occur naturally, trees don't have evidence that they are made by a creator.

Brava! Your analogy was well put I have to say. The thing I have a hard time understanding is this. How did the very first forms of life came to be? For example, the dinosaurs or a bug. I'm not very sure on this but has earth always been habitable?

The question of how life came to be on this planet is one I can't answer. It's something scientists are working on, its called abiogenisis. However we have created in a lab, the building blocks of life from non life. So essentially, life from non life is very possible. This question doesn't effect evolution though because evolution is a process that life goes through [i][b]after it already exists[/b][/i]. Just something important to keep in mind.
