To: Psalm 73
Ha, we're not much closer NOW to understanding! We THINK we know, so we run ourselves ragged trying desperately to explain everything without the need for a Creator. IF you believe in an omnipotent God, then why could He not have created as Genesis implies?

First sentence implies ignorace..I'll let it pass..just do a little reading. Okay, so maybe the earth is flat after all. We just think we know it isn't. We could be wrong...oh yes. yes, indeed.

If you believe in an omnipotent God, then why can't he have created as science proves? Why don't you see that the simple-minded people of that day would have never understood how life came about other than to hear the creation story in Genesis. All that was relevant was that God caused life to be. As we became more scientifically enlightened, we began to seek answers as to what mechanisms lead to our existence. These mechanisms neither imply nor exclude a Creator.

"First sentence implies ignorace..I'll let it pass..just do a little reading. Okay, so maybe the earth is flat after all."

Your first sentence implies an ego way beyond your means.
Do you support yourself (you know, a house, bills, job, taxes)? Have you raised children?
How many years have you been volunteering in jails and homeless shelters? How many years' experience do you have in the work force? Should I stop now, or are you incapable of being embarassed?
And BTW - the Bible does not talk of a flat earth, but of a ROUND one.
You may be smart, but you enter the real world with a total lack of respect like you exhibit here - they will eat you alive.

Okay, "complex-minded" person, explain to the audience how the pyramids were built with the technology available at the time of their building. Explain Stonehenge. Explain Easter Island.

Today, we are more "scientifically enlightened" than those "simple-minded" people were to created these things.

Explain.

I'm waiting...
