Re: Fundamentalist relationships can bring some insight
don't say things like that... you'll only confuse them.

but don't forget fungi which actively create and live off of decay.

i do recall asking about that way back in sunday school and getting a weird answer which was something like "the functions of things changed after the fall to accommodate the new circumstances". this is a bullshit answer obviously but it kinda sounds like evolution to me lol.

Re: Evolution vs. creation
Extremely powerfull beyond our imagination and omnipotent are two different things. I believe God is the former. My previous example about the paradox in free will I felt showed the difference pretty well. Omnipotent means "all powerfull" and I do not believe that God has the power to forcibly make me love Him.

i think you just made my life a lot easier. thanks.

Re: Evolution vs. creation
it may seem like a very simple solution but you worded it so nicely.
​
it's a very long story.
