But there is tons of evidence for the scientific fact of evolution. Ever heard of a thing of probability? If something can be neither proved or disproved that doesn't make it 50/50.
A scientific theory is one that has yet to be disproved? How can you prove that we were created or that we evolved? You can't, so evolution is the best they can come up with because they don't even want to consider creation. When a theory becomes more important than the question the theory attempts to address it is time to reevaluate the science. Science doesn't blindly dismiss a possibility without having to explain it or test it unless there is something corrupting the scientific process. Money, politics
Quote:As for what you said regarding the Bible as contradicting itself so much and at the same time saying you know very little about the Bible I have to ask is that evidence or faith? I have a little game I used to play on Atheist message boards - a challenge to anyone to present only one contradiction that I can't refute.
Not a matter of faith a matter of bad memory and memory of sources, I'm not expecting you to have faith in me or believe what I am saying, I am just saying that I have heard many contradictions I just can't remember them right now. I haven't read much of the bible. And what I did read I read years ago.
However, I'll simply say that miracles themselves are huge contradictions, they are totally against science. And God is the biggest miracle of all, so he is the biggest contradiction. If miracles aren't a contradiction then thats just silly. The only way out I can see for you is for you to claim that miracles aren't in the bible or they are "just metaphors". How do you know they are metaphors if that is the case? Who's metaphor? Do you know of the writers? And like I said God is the biggest miracle of all and miracles are ridiculous and false. They go against the laws of the universe.
