“That’s only microevolution and proves nothing about man evolving from non-life!!!”

You can’t prove evoution!!! But you cant prove that smoking is bad for your health either. You can only support evidence for something. I believe in God and The big bang and evolution. There is no contradiction.(unless you are one of those crazy literalists!!!) So this post is unnecessary space on the server!!

Okay, I’m no scientist, but even I can figure out why the planets are round - hasn’t she seen videos of people on the space shuttle - liquids, presumably including molten rock or whatever, form into spheres in zero gravity. I think it would be hard to believe that the planets **weren’t** round but instead squares or something.

Why can’t the creationists just say that God was the nothing and he made the bang and from that moment on we all agree? Wouldn’t that be nice? 🙂

Hmmm, God as exploded nothing, I’m impressed.

Any other atheist care to comment?

Sure! I’d love to! =)

This site here should answer a few questions about Creationizm vs. rational people…er…Evolution.

[http://www.stardestroyer.net/Essays/Kansas.html](http://www.stardestroyer.net/Essays/Kansas.html)

To me, it sums it up as, “Creationists make no sence…they only think they do.”

The section on that page that sums it up is “Which theory has more supporting evidence?”
