The Bible doesn't support evolution. It says God created the heavens and Earth as well as the animals in it in 7 "days" (which isn't to be taken literally, these days can vary in time) with no mention of evolution. So it's not even a theory to me. It's wrong.

    Why is the bible true? Evolution is just as much of a theory as gravity is. The bible doesn't mention gravity either, so it must be wrong too by your logic.

    You are partially correct. And took my statement out of context. The [i]effect[/i] of gravity is obvious and without a doubt there. How it works...is the theory. And believing in evolution would contradict the Bible in that it says in Genesis that God created animals along with humans. As far as why the bible is true, I have done what you likely have done and weighed both possible realms of possibility. Both that if there is a god and if there wasn't. I've studied the Bible ([i]The New World Translation[/i]) and everything matches up accordingly. For me, it seems more logical that there is a higher being than us than to believe we are here by chance and serve no purpose.

  • Evolution has more evidence and a stronger foundation than the theory of Gravity, you only accept it because you can drop an apple and see that it falls. However, evolution doesn't work like that. Scientific research on chromosome 2 proves we share our closest ancestor with chimpanzee's. It is a fact that we have a common ancestor with them, and all other life on Earth. It is a fact that species change over time, and species evolve into a new one over many many years. This has been directly observed to happen with Darwin's Finches, salamanders in California, and even more for certain with fruit flies.

  • Thanks for providing justification. Now while I don't agree, I am glad you can think about it and are respectful and tolerant for lack of a better term. We can continue this tomorrow, Good night.
