Evolution or Creation

I disagree. As many in this thread have already stated, the question sets up a false dichotomy. There is no reason to link God with Creation and Atheism with Evolution in a such a way as to be mutually exclusive. As in, you can only choose G&C or A&E. Those are not the only options. you can have G&C, A&C, G&E, A&E.as said, his question is invalid.

A&C is tricky. i was thinking back to before evolution became a real observation and later a theory to explain it. probably should have made that more clear.it all really depends on how you define "creation". there could be some atheist out there who does think that things were "poofed into existance". Have I met any? No. Have I met many atheists? The only place I've met people who readily claim to be atheistic is on this board.the only two things you can't pair are A&G--to be an atheist means you reject God (and/or the idea of such a being). as such, they are antithetical (not that I need to tell you that).

so you believe in god for your own personal gain?that seems . . .well . . .kind of wrong to me. i would think one would believe for more than just getting eternal life. but hey, that's me.

Two problems here. First off, if you were an atheist, there would be no "lake of fire". Second off, why would you be cast into the "lake of fire" for being knowledgable?The other problem with your post is your setting it up as an either/or, when the real situation is not either/or.

what avatar are you and larni talking about? I only see the one of the person and the horse for you, schraf.show me in chat the next time we're both in there. if you don't mind.
