Christianity and the 10 Commandments

[teblin]

"Anytime something contradicts evolution, they alter their theory. So don't accuse creationists of doing that, because it's mutual. "

The thing is, religion starts off with all the answers and looks for claims to support itself. Science starts from the ground up and works towards a sound conclusion. I'm not sure why God would reveal himself to Middle-Eastern tribesmen and not some civilisation far more capable of interpreting such information, like the Ancient Greeks.

Of course we can't explain creationism because there is no evidence. It's based on belief without reason. DNA supports evolution, you can see the countless ways in which DNA has evolved over the centuries. The 16S rRNA protein molecule stays the same within one species but in others it changes often. The species in which it sees no change is the ancestor species, the changes are not seen until later contact with other species. This shows when different species appeared and mutated due to evolutionary changes. Intelligent beings such as your 'God' do not come into existence magically, out of nowhere. And saying you can't apply usual rules of science to God achieves nothing. You have done nothing to prove his existence. Humans came about after a very long evolutionary journey. Just look at the Galapagos bird evolution.

Creationism also supports a 6000-year old Earth. Leading creationists admit to believing that humans and dinosaurs co-existed, yet fossils of both have never been found together. I am also aware, however, that there are old-Earth and new-Earth creationists; one of the many forms of religious explanation produced to avoid the tide of evidence disproving religious theories that were once widely believed. Science doesn't know everything, that much isn't hidden by everyone. But it certainly has more answers than religion:

If we are all God's children why is Jesus so special?
Why are there so many religions that claim to be right?
How can a homosexual be labelled a morally evil individual?

If you believe humans and dinosaurs were living on Earth at the same time you are deluded. If you are persuaded by Creationism you are welcome to it.
