Creation Or Evolution? Vote!

I hope there is other species on other planets so that we can be frinds! And go to Inter Galatic Wars against each other! All that fun stuff! Orcs are a true space race...

Someone asked for a SINGLE sample of a snake with legs:

A story about scientists x-raying an ancient snake fossil and finding hidden legs.

I've found your sample of a snake with legs. Now, find me a piece of evidence supporting creationism that wasn't written in a book by people that still thought that demons were the cause of disease.

Evolution.

I believe in evolution. I do believe there is something, or someone out there that created what we now call Earth. Not Earth in it's entirety, but in some forms, a template. I used to believe that God did create everything, and that evolution was a load of total crap - however, as I've grown older I've developed on the idea, and I do believe that evolution happened.

The big bang, and all that crap is false I believe, and merely some stupid excuse for scientists to claim they've discovered how everything was made - I don't believe a single word of it. The part of evolution I do believe, and agree with is that every living thing has grown from single-cell organisms to what it is today.

I don't believe in God. I don't believe in Allah. I don't believe in any god, but I do think that something did make the world, as a base for what it's become. Everything has grown off of this template, and become where we live today.

I'd be of the opinion that they are both right.

Maby "God" decoded to put us on the earth to inhabit it and we evolved into what we are today. Maby we came from microbacteria.

The one thing that science and religion agree on is that there sí too much order in the world fore there not to have been a hand in it weather by some great deity or some other unseen hand.

[legoman144 17]

The reason we dont easily see evolution taking place is the fact that evolution takes a huge amount of time and a reason to adapt like for example climate and enviromental change, in the how many 200? 300 years we have been looking for signs of evolution not much has changed.

Just my thoughts on the matter.

Thanks Alpha. I thought I was in the wrong movie here for one second.

Maybe not all in Evolution Theory will turn out to be right, but I rather go them. There is just too much evidence to disregard natural selection for any other theory.

The bible is a 2000 year old book, designed to teach people moral values. It barley a accurate history book and it's definitely not a book of any scientific significance.

Actually, there is not agreement in science that there was an "unseen" hand. This implies that there is a god-like figure. By this logic, there would be no sch things as atheist scientists.

Also, Creationism covers a massive range of beliefs. If your answer is "both," I would love to hear more details about your beliefs, as simply saying "both" is anything but clear.

I will not release my beliefs, I have always felt that via the Internet, we find more confidence to bash others belief; an ignorant concept. I do not get myself involved in religions, whether made up or from IRL on here and I see a bit of an irony. We have worse fish to fry than what someone believes, those beliefs whether evolutionary or creation-based do not really play into how we deal with the issues in the World.

Perhaps he answers both so he does not get stigmatized by both argumentative and self-fulfilling atheists or holy-roller Christians.

I'd really rather not go into detail about it, but I'll just say I believe in a creator from a scientific point of view.

And really.... Why would you -1 this? It's not like we are all yelling how one thing is better than the other, or one thing is "more right" than the other. It was asked maturely and I'm just confused as to why people still -1 things that are of no importance. Yeah... I know rep doesn't matter but Gosh. This grinds my gears.

I'd say evolution. Realistically, there's no way a person named God can come out of no where and create everything of which we see today. When I hear stories of how God created the Earth, then the scientific stories, the scientific stories always seem more realistic. It's hard to believe that there's a person named God flying around in space right now creating a billion other planets, unless the person we name God is an alien of some sort.

I used to believe that aliens helped develop the human planet, and that they contacted the Egyptians etc... but now I've grown older my 100% opinion is definitely for evolution.

(*Don't read the following if you're easily offended*)

To me, God is just a money making business which has been around for years. Think of it, how could men from around a billion years ago keep stories on a man who created the earth. Think of how unintelligent we would of been then to even realize what we where? IMO the bible was written by man.

---------

Think of the future, in 100 years, Earth will be a type 1 civilization which means we will be almost 'unstoppable' to anything of which could cause the end of civilization itself. Think of how intelligent and advanced we will be. We will be flying around space ourselves, helping new planets begin life.

Think of how lucky we are to actually live our selves. We are the perfect distance away from the sun. If we where any closer, there'd be no water, if we where any further out, our sea's, ocean's would be ice and We rotate perfectly. why would God create it this complicated?

This is just MY opinion.
