To me evolution has all the evidence, there is really no evidence behind creation. I really don't see how you can argue with the loads of fossil evidence, and I think it's kind of selfish to think that humans have no connection genetically to other animals on earth.

Hi Thamnophis, 8)
Creation is(!) hard to believe, the bible has been written by people, thousands of years ago. and they had a knowledge of science not as we do today. Man was just learning and had "fresh" minds not like us wacko's in the 21st century. First I have to say is that the bible has stories, which they are, not poems or documenteries, no , just stories.
And they (I think) had the same feeling maybe as we are doing today but in a far more modest way : trying to get a message through.
We don't have the luxioury of believing it literally anymore, but thats good, cause the ones that wrote it would understand, I think.
But we can take the "good" out of it, which is what they wanted.
Only man creates, is my belief. "God" certainly doesn't. God is not "One".
Or that corny saying "The One". But one saying I still like, and that is "Be Good".
So evolution is wonderfull and exactly true, but you can look farther away can't you? Why do you think you are here? Well at least first of all you have to conseave offspring. "He" made sure of that .
"He" made "it" real good for you, otherwise you might forget, or just didn't feel like it. But there are billions of other's like you, and you can't all be good souls. That would create real chaos.So don't forget: We just "popped out", and were going down too, not under(weird place), just down. God is ALL, not ONE. And only man can create; a basket, a table, etc and that is all.
