He sacrificed his son to pay for my sin not my unworthiness. You seem to be confused. Unworthiness is not what keeps us from heaven it's our sin. You are totally obsessed over this unworthiness and idk why. We are unworthy of his forgiveness and deserve eternal separation from God BUT he gives it anyway. That is where unworthiness leaves the picture.
Well, clearly you don't understand that story then. What do you think "sin" is? Do you think it's a substance like mud that can be washed away?
You have such a watered-down lolly-pop picture of the religion you must be a protestant.
Oh, excuse me, I see you are.

You're not even close to challenging your faith. On the contrary all you do is defend it with truly lame excuses and remain in denial of everything everyone tells you.

Big bang happens and causes all matter And energy to eventually be created similarly to today. Then life comes from.... Well let's just skip that part. You can't do that that's a major hole that could debunk the whole thing if it's impossible.
No, it's not a major hole that could debunk the whole thing.
This just displays how ignorant you are concerning what is actually known about evolution. Evolution form simple cells to more complex lifeforms clearly occurred. Even if it took a "miracle" to create the very first cells, that still wouldn't change the facts of evolution.
So it wouldn't debunk the whole thing anyway.
All it would do is force us to consider a more mystical view of God like the Eastern Mystics suggest. It would totally point AWAY from Hebrew mythology altogether.
So, no, your hopes and dreams that someday evolution could turn out to be wrong, are truly misplaced.
Again, it just shows how desperate you are to keep your 'faith' at all cost, even if it means to be in total denial of truth.
Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!
