darkphoenix1247 Wow...I'm gone for all of 9 days, and this is what happened? *sigh* Where to begin... Arm Chair: I'm not even bothering to read all of your posts, as from everybody else's response, you're not really presenting your points in a nice or logical manner and I'm still tired from stupid time changes. Please stop insulting other people and their beliefs. Also, how could Jewish text be taken out of the Christian bible? Chronological order here. Anyway, a warning to please watch what and how you say in the future. Raito: Please respect everybody's beliefs, and don't call people idiots. Thank you. :3 Please be nice to each other people- there's enough hatred and violence in the world already without us adding to it... Umm miss I never took the Christan Bible and put it as Jewish. Non logical answers on a logic subject, what are you getting at? Beliefs are based upon superstition on how something works , but not challenging them or do so based upon a system that makes things they are the way they are, since breaking that rule crumbles the system, and exposing it for what it is.

Angry Arm Chair I read then make my mind or read again to see if my mind is concluded, I have read parts of the Jewish texts, not all may I say. I know enough that most were taken out of the Christian Bible due to separate faiths when it was first created to be a separate religion. Also, people can challenge their own beliefs- I do it all the time. But, I see how it does work as well. :3

Uhmm... I'm not really sure what we're arguing here.
Though I think it's degenerated to time? In case anyone cares, I don't believe time is man made, but our way of measuring time is.
I also don't see why people seem to want to make religion and science mutually exclusive. For that matter, why would philosophy and science be separate either?
Furthermore, though I'm not much of a scientist, whatever science I've been forced to learn in school reaffirms my believe in G-d.

Furthermore, though I'm not much of a scientist, whatever science I've been forced to learn in school reaffirms my believe in G-d. When science broke off from philosophy it was for what it could not do. Let me get a bit off track to explain this. Science uses observation supported with more observation and testing. To confirm a certain view, alter it or change it. Yes philosophy has imprints in the scientific method that scientists use. Francis Bacon was the man who came up with the concept. Galileo was the one that made sure that science would not be a sub of philosophy along with Kepler and ect. While I jumped ahead that's my fault it's a far different system and far better than what philosophy uses since it never tests in a actual sense. Religion is metaphysics, science is based on observation and testing in nut shell view. While I'm aware of the men I looked up to all my life was religious like Newton; in my personal view observation that disproves a view among many others should not not be there or should be thought as fact. I mean do any of use believe in spontaneous generation of life here? I'm not trying to be hard, I respect that you believe in God.

I believe that Creationism and Evolution can be both true: God simply started evolution. The story of Adam and Eve doesn't necessarily have to be taken literally. It could be a metaphor for evolution. A day is not necessarily 24 hours. It could be millions of years.
Maybe the eating from the Tree of Knowledge was when we became Conscious, thus becoming Man and not an animal.
