I suspect you haven't asked Him for any help...

Sure I have. But this ongoing discussion on evolution forced me to answer the question whether the Bible is 100% factual. I had thought it was OK to accept that Genesis and some other parts of the Bible weren't factually true (because obviously the earth is old, evolution occurs, etc.), while other parts about Jesus were completely factual.

But once people convinced me that the Bible itself insists that it must accept all of it as 100% fact, and I could not do that, then I was forced to reject my faith entirely.

It's a bummer to know that when you die, you die. You can thank the brouhaha begun by "creation scientists" for my rejection. I only wonder how many people never accept Jesus, because the person bringing the Good News insists that one must reject science in order to accept God.

The Greeks seek after wisdom; The Jews seek a sign; but there shall be no sign given but the sign of Jonah.

You obviously chose the Greek path, and you know where that wound up.

Rom 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

If I am wrong it matters little, for I am here but a short while, and the Universe will continue on the path as it will, my existence will make no difference what ever in your life.

If I am correct, it matters greatly to you.
