ok, well, first off... everyone stop telling me what evolution is. i just took biology last year; i know dang well what it is.
second, you guys keep sayin it only takes one point to prove something to be false, yadda, yadda, well... i haven't seen a single one of you prove something of the Bible to be untrue, so stop ruling it out.
and about the stories from the Bible, you're right neither I nor anyone else anywhere in the world can prove to you that the stories that you mentioned and even other stories are true. what does it matter? i believe that they, in fact, occured at one point in history. another might believe differently. it doesn't matter; what's being told/taught to us and what we are supposed to get from the story is true.
"And we have more evidence to support evolution than you do from the bible" as so well-put by GT40.... i just had to laugh, i'm sorry. the day you prove to me that that is true, i might believe you. you're probably getting ready to answer back, "i just did by listing off all of those methods of data/observation." they're all man-made. anything man-made is never unfailing. NEVER.
one thing that i'd also like to mention is the Bible has constantly disproved science, but science has yet to disprove the Bible. The Bible says within it not only that the earth is spherical, but also that it rotates on an axis, etc. The Bible was DEFINITELY around when science was saying that the earth was flat, or that it was simply suspended in space. bare in mind, these facts were put in the Bible casually and in terms germane to the time-period in which it was written. they're such a small part of the Bible because they're unimportant to what is trying to be taught.
btw, i don't simply accept and not question my faith or my religion. doesn't what I'm doing right now prove that? you guys are gving me all of this perfectly legitimate "proof" that evolution occured, but given what i've learned, i think Christianity makes more sense. of course, faith is a large portion of the religion, and that's what you guys have a hard time accepting.
GT40- if you could refrain from your judgemental, stereotypical, cynical comments, i'd really appreciate it.
