I'm not saying we're right because we're told were not every now and then, but just saying that the Bible predicted that this would happen, that people would single out Christians for their beliefs. And although it just seems hard to believe, there is a God and you can know him by reading his Word, which has never found any fault and has proven itself to be correct many times.

Really? No fault? LOL so how about the fact that it clearly states that humans were created as humans and did not evolve from hominids? Or that it suggests the earth is only 10000 years old while just about everything points to approximately 4 billion years?
-
If you think about it we are actually DEvolving. People don't say "I have my father's good eye sight." Instead you hear, "I have my father's bad joints," and things like that. And it's been scientifically proven that mutation can never result in anything beneficial, but rather a corrupt organism.
-
To be honest, yes humans are devolving, not backwards though we are just evolving badly. We have no threats and so natural selection doesn't kick in as often as it should and we develop bad traits.
-
Natural selection and evolution are two different things. Put weak animals and strong animals of the same kind into a room and strong animals come out on top. That doesn't mean they changed. They just survived. And evolution also has never been recorded. Animals may adapt to their surroundings, but that is only a change in type, not in species entirely.
-
Evolution has been recorded, it is seen in fruit flies and maggots as well as many other animals and plants
-
Natural selection is a mechanic of evolution, the weaker die before they are able to reproduce. The stronger reproduce to make stronger offspring.

Edited by Dark Zolkoft: 7/5/2015 7:58:33 PMLike what points out? Carbon dating that is totally unreliable? In those rocks they dated to see how old the Earth was there was helium which would have escaped from the rock after much shorter than the age of what scientists claim. Also all of our oceans would be made of salt and I could drive to England. Also if we came from apes why are there still apes? Did they just decide not to evolve?
-
So you age of the earth guess is better than all that science has to offer on the age of the earth? You think that you are smarter than every scientist that has come to that conclusion? Well go publish your findings, have it peer-reviewed and then receive all of your accolades and awards! Moving on, Why would the ocean be all salt? Also we didn't come from apes, as I stated in the last comment we evolved from hominids, we do, however, share a common ancestor with apes and bonobos.

Really the only thing I'm trying to get across is God is real. You don't have to believe that. I'm here to tell you that he does and that Jesus died in the cross for you to save you from your sins, and that if you repent of your sins and believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, you will be saved. That's really all that I can do. I can't force you to believe that, but I'm trying my best to help you and all else reading. We could argue all day about what's true and what's not and all of the different proofs and errors, so I'll just end this by saying that Jesus loves you and you may choose to accept Him.
-
And all I'm trying to say is he has no real evidence and your beliefs don't affect the truth. Whether you accept that or not it's your choice but I choose not to believe anything without substantial evidence

Edited by Dark Zolkoft: 7/5/2015 11:10:20 PMThis is one of the problems of people who Christians try to proclaim to these days. They want proof of everything. You must first believe to understand rather than understand to believe. I wish I could help you more, but it seems I've done all that I can.
-
What is wrong with wanting proof? That is only logical! I don't see how believing with blind faith makes any sense! It defies all logic and reason.
-
And what's the difference between a hominid and an ape?
-
they share the same ancestor, but hominids evolve into us.

All Oceans would be salt because when water evaporates it leaves the salt behind and the oceans continue to become more salty. At that rate the oceans would be entirely salt. And God's word being closely analyzed is better than the guess of other scientists. Christian researchers just found out how old everyone was using the Bible and that's how we got a number. And we can know that the Bible is true because older versions were found that were identical to Bibles in use today.

Learn the water cycle! The water precipitates and returns to the ocean!
