You find these things difficult to believe, but you're just fine believing that all the complex diversity of life, and the ordered existence of the universe was just some freaky accident? You need not be a Christian to believe in a higher form, or a supreme being. Open your mind. You either believe in creation, or just a big coincidence. Personally, I find the latter to be quite ridiculous.

Unlike Cal Thomas, creationists & ID'ers I make no claims as to how life & the universe came about. I simply don't know and neither does anyone else.

However, I reject any kind of notion that woman sprung from man's rib, etc. and don't think it should be taught in public schools as fact, which is what Cal Thomas is arguing for.

Well said.

In fact, it takes far more faith to believe in evolution that it does to believe in the Biblical view of creation.

Waaay back in post #11 ---> You either believe in creation, or just a big coincidence. Personally, I find the latter to be quite ridiculous.

But, it's a "scientifically proven" coincidence! FR's pro-evo crowd has yet to honestly admit that Darwin's THEORY has not earned any status beyond THEORY. Questioning the dogma of their religion is treated as utter scientific "blasphemy", and followers of such "heresy" are deemed unintelligent, at best. Hence, we are blessed with such works of brilliance as:

DIMENSIO post#3: The author of the article is a moron who ignorantly equates evolution and atheism. . . . Now that's an irrefutable scientific point of proof! - NOT

Neither creationists nor evolutionists can demonstrate by scientific experimentation their respective theory of origin. Each believes his theory is correct and supports that belief with observations believed to be the result of his non-provable process of origin. Only those who state that their view of origin is ultimately a belief system honestly participate in this debate.

In this debate, only the dogmatists are morons. BTW, Cal Thomas' article does not present his position in dogmatic fashion.

I believe in Creation, but not that it happened is seven days. (Just my beliefs).
