Apparently you hold the belief that you are a product of something crawling out of the ancient slime, and evolving into a fine young person, of considerable intellect. So be it!

As for me, I prefer to believe I am the product of divine planning, put on this orb to meet certain criteria and destined to do further work for the Lord in eternity.

I have done some reading on Creation vs Evolution and can find no evidence to support Evolution when it comes down to the nitty gritty. I offer the following URL for your possible interest.

Again, thank you for your thoughtful response.

Perhaps if you would actually argue what your opponent believes rather than making up their position for them you would have more credibility. Then again, it would greatly weaken your arguments.

Your WorldNetDaily citation is confusing. The article is about the percentage of people who believe in a literal interpretation of Biblical stories, but I don't see what that has to do with the issue of evolution.

What work could you possibly do for a deity capable of creating the whole universe and every living thing within it?

...I prefer to believe ...

Another example of the identity of Creationism and PostModernDeconstructionism. Prefences rather than evidence.

I too have done some reading on this subject and can find no evidence to support Creation when it comes down to the nitty gritty.

So, basically, your entire sense of self-worth is based upon belief in a few non-scientifically or historically supported chapters in a book.

You know, afro-centrists claim that, despite evidence to the contrary, all of western civilization is based on concepts and technology stolen from a mythic African civilization. By your lights, they might be right.
