To say that God created man does not have to mean that poof he made man like pulling a rabbit out of a hat….Man could have very well emerged from the blue print that was already unfolding on Earth and he still would have been made by God….. Maybe the whole blueprint of our existence from beginning to end was already written at the moment he said let there be light…… Maybe God’s hand just set it all in motion and his design created it all in a chain reaction of events that unfolded over millions of years and is still unfolding today. You can look at nature and see that there’s a blueprint. I don’t see where the ideas of evolution and the big bang have to conflict so bad with religion.

Back to you........ grin


This is kinda where my head is at


It is easier to fool a man than to convince him he has been fooled.
