That’s funny. We knew a kid that believed in evolution, big bang actually. So Hubby finally said “If I put a stick of dynamite up the tailpipe of your car, will it come down as a BMW? It’s a big bang. How about your watch in a box of rocks? Will it come out a Rolex?” LOL
I believe in The Big Bang Theory.
I believe God spoke and BANG!, it happened.
I have more books in my library on religion than anything else. I stand by my statement.
You can think what you will of me; you have your philosophy, I have mine. I have no doubt that you think I am doomed. I believe in my own way.
“Fringe” is an invective that we have long since outgrown. It is quite mainstream to challenge socialism and fascism. It is quite mainstream to advocate for the free exercise of religion. It is quite mainstream to stand athwart history and yell “Stop!”
That's not the problem.
Visit a few creationist threads to see what the problem is.

C.S.Lewis....
Did He Say;
You Don’t a Have a Soul,
You ARE A Soul, You Have A Body.
This Phrase has Flipped Me Out and Shocked All I Have shared it With.

So, you mean if robins and an owls get segregated on an island somewhere, they will eventually mate to become a whole new species of bird?
I am going to be stealing that line. It's great!
Yeah, “trying” seems to be the operative word.
Of course “explained” also seems pretty operative too since his explanation hasn’t been actually proven that I am aware of. Lots of adaption, no species jump.
You read my keyring! LOL
I’m so glad that you take a firm stand on these things, Jim. I admire you tremendously. If other Christians were as bold and unyielding, the world would be a better place.
Good post.
Exactly same question. I always ask why are there apes still behaving as apes and yet humans are leaps and bounds ahead. It’s not like Zebras are evolved beyond donkeys. Or mice beyond rats. And yet I am typing on a computer to another person in a completely different geographic location (you) and you read it instantly... while we are “proving” evolution because some monkeys in a jungle figured out how to use a rock to smash open a nut.
Learn to skip over comments you don't like from people you do. That's how we advance civilization into the wilderness.
You got it word for word.
And your explanation is?
....today’s “fringe”, tomorrow’s mainstream (and we’ll have to keep them honest, too, when the time comes). Thanks, Jim.
These posts make me laugh sometimes. Why do people bother coming into our backyard to take a dump when there are a million other forums on the net that are true toilets for their thoughts to be flushed down?
I AM I.
