The vast majority of the world are creationists, and that is because everything we have on this planet and all life here, are more easily explained with an intelligent creator involved.
Why would have to assume they 'may' have been, that's nonsense, really it is. It does not matter what the majority of the world is or believes, only what we can reasonably prove, if numbers were true then would Islam be more true when it inevitably overtakes christianity as the worlds foremost religion ?

Why do you say that , feelings ?

The way you characterise it makes me think you have not understood it. Evolution fits the world we see around us much more closely than any creation myth.

Clearly you cannot simultaneously have a country with so many claimed christians doing everything they can, while at the same time having most the wealth in the world, that is the most ridiculous claim I have heard. It is more accurate to say christians, along with Muslims, atheists, humanists (add any religion you want) are doing something.
Quote:What you should ask yourself is, why aren't the other people in the world doing just as much as the Christians? If they were, we would have no starving people.
What makes you think they are not? So far you have boldly claimed this yet given no reason for it.
And if god kept his promise there would certainly be no starving christians.
Quote:The passage you quoted was Jesus speaking to people who were specifically instructed, as you quoted "to first seek the kingdom of God and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you" Christians are also going on missions all over the world, trying to encourage every single person to accept His gift of Salvation, but not everyone is receptive.
What has that to do with god's promise to feed and clothe those who seek first his kingdom? are you suggesting that those christians in countries where their children (and themselves) starve to death are co-incidently those who are not real christians ?
Is it a promise of god, or is it not ?
Why do christians who claim that their god made the whole universe appear out of nothing (note it's theists who do that, not atheists), then ask us to believe god then cannot keep his promise because he's been incompetence enough to entrust this promise to people he must have foreknown will not deliver ? All your reply tells me is no god is exactly the same and indistinguishable from your god.
