Or we could open our eyes, see that evolution is real and start showing others how God and evolution are compatable.

If you want to do that, I would show non-believers first.
Um...sorry, what? You mean show non-believers that God and evolution are compatilible?

Yeah, because they need it most.
Personally I think it's more important for us to get out own views straight, than to go and tell other people. I'll tell atheists if they want to listen. But I'd rather my fellow Christians learnt how to read the Bible while using their brain.

Also, faaaar more than 50/50 people believe in evolution.


Seeing as that's never going to happen (people are too different), I'd just try and save as many people as i can before the end times.

You can prove evolution wrong with science and the Bible. I have an Atheist Biology teacher that has doubts on evolution because there are a lot of scientific facts that prove evolution both right and wrong. Also there are a lot of books dealing with this issue as well, i read a book called 'Refuting Evolution' and it has a lot of mind opening facts about how science can prove science wrong. domokun

Yea you could...but if they don't believe in the bible, u can still prove them wrong with their own medicine.

Give me some that prove conclusively that evolution is "wrong".

That's more or less science's purpose.

This is a battle that you cannot win without some serious background working on your opponent. You cannot prove Creation without the Bible and you cannot prove Evolution without Science. If you are a creationist, you will not accept science as proof and vice versa. Both of these ideas are theories and cannot fully be proved. Both of them take a lot of faith to believe in. I suggest checking out the Answers in Genesis series by Ken Ham. He might be a little dry at times but he has great points. There's another pastor I really liked but I only ever called him Dinosaur Man and I can't remember his real name. If I think of it though, I'll let you know. He was really cool. My biology teacher (it was at a Christian school) really had some good insight. Maybe you could find a Christian Scientist and talk to them. They would know the most facts about both sides of the argument.

Creations may have evolved since God created it but those facts and the theories of Evolution are completely different. If you mix them you muddy the waters and people just end up getting confused. If you think they can be mixed then you either need to study one or the other a little bit more. And I'm not sure if it's way more than 50% because almost no religion believes in evolution. Think of all the different people in the world that have different religions. It's not just Christians that believe in creation.

Here's a very simple question to disprove evolution. If we evolved from apes, then why are apes still alive today?

It's pretty much just Evangelical Christians and certain sects of Islam at this point.

No, but the majority of religious worshippers have reconciled their beliefs with evolution. Creation and evolution don't technically contradict each other.

Answer: We didn't evolve from the apes you see today. Those apes are a different branch of evolution in their own right; we just share a common ancestor.

I'm a little torn on the whole evolution thing. There's plenty of evidence for both theories. There's also plenty of holes in both. Let's face it, science is a human invention and is just as flawed as we are, whether it is Christian or secular. Unfortunately, no secular scientist wants to admit that maybe they are every bit as in the dark as they think we are. It's a losing battle. They're just too hard-headed to listen.

Maybe the earth was created in a literal seven days, maybe that seven days was figurative and God set us on a path of divinely guided evolution.

Either way, it it hardly matters to me.

What I DO know is that God created all this. It is far too complex to have been an accident. I don't care how he did it. All I need to know is that He did.

Actually, any scientist worth his/her salt would openly admit that they know almost nothing about the universe.

Pity there seem to be so few of them...

You can believe that. I don't.

Hey, I'm just answering you're question. I'm not telling you to believe me. You can do the research yourself.
