If you believe that you were created by God, then why are you so resistant to creationists? Why do you lend your voice of support to those who would teach our children that they are not the creation of God, but the product of random meaningless natural selection?

BTW, if you claim to be a Christian, do you disagree with God's own written pronouncement (written by his own hand on tablets of stone) that he created the heavens and the earth and all that is within them in 6 days?

I don't believe in the Bishop Usher, six 24 hour days to creation. According to Genesis, God didn't create the sun and the moon to rule over the day and the night until the fourth day. So how long was a day ?

I do NOT support those who would tell children "they are not the creation of God". By that, you must mean atheists, which I am not and never could be.

But let's discard "random" and "meaningless" and go on to "natural selection". Why couldn't that be part of God's plan ? Genesis also states God first made plants, then fishes, then animals, then man. So does evolution.

And men weren't really "men" until they became aware of good and evil. Prior to succumbing to temptation, they lived more like animals - not being ashamed of being naked, etc. Couldn't that describe the evolution of man from hominids to homo sapiens ?

I do not claim to be a Christian. But as I recall, Moses claimed God wrote the Ten Commandments himself on tablets of stone - NOT the whole Bible. Where is that ?
