Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
And, in fact, we already know the answer from earlier threads where a similar question was asked. A fair share of the young earth creationists wouldn't change their thoughts on a young earth and evolution, even if God came down from heaven to tell them they are wrong.
that, tom, is one of the most chilling things i've ever read.

dumb question. hypothetical guestion like this are useless.
Hypothetical questions are never useless. The whole point is so that we can explain how our perspective makes us deal with things. People who won't answer these are illustrative of their own closed-mindedness, not some weakness of hypothetical questions.

And you know how many "evos" said they'd change their minds? I believe it was every single one(or at least most), but if anyone wants to go dumpster diving they can find it.
Now class, what have we learned?
No, science is agnostic to religion, or to God. Though certain religious beliefs can be disproven, none can be proven. Science doesn't reject, it just doesn't resort. Why is it so many people doni't grasp that?

Hmmmm, the answer would be NO. My faith in God is not dependent on evolution, I may even be convinced it happend...still along way from that though. To me Science is proof of God, it shows us how complicated everything is and can only lead to a Supreme Creator. Glory Be To GOD
I'm just wanted to ask this hypothetical question. If evolution was proven true (to your satisfaction) and there was absolutely no disagreement among religous leaders, scientists, and others that evolution took place over millions of years would that change your view of god? Would you lose faith? Would you still believe in god? What else would change for you?
This is the whole problem with the evolution vs. Creationist argument. Evolution as defined is in evidence, but evolution as predominently presented by evo's and Creationists alike broadens the meaning into something that is not necessarily "evolution".
I for one (Creationist) have no problem with the evolutionary processes that have been shown to be present and it in no way affects my knowledge of God. In fact it rather helps define the Creation process.
