You know, I took some time off from the Crevo area, and did a lot of thinking.
What I basically came to realize, is that there is no reason scientifically to not believe in God.
Second, I realized that the debates in the end don't matter.
On the evolutionist side, it really doesn't matter how good a point is made.
The Bible says that all flesh is at enmity with God. Jesus also said that the world hates him, because he testifies that what does is evil.
We're dealing with hate, not lack of knowledge.
When I think of the people around the world who are getting torchured and killed for the sake of the Gospel, and how even in this country, people want God out, I know that our fight is bigger then facts. Our fight is against hatred.
Remember the Pharisees, who refused to believe Christ, no matter how many miracles he did, and no matter how good a point he made. Remember, there were times that what Christ said made so much sense, that he completely silenced the Pharisees.
But again, it is not even against people. The Bible says we fight against the powers and principalities of darkness, meaning the forces of hell.
There is plenty of reason to believe in ID. Those who don't want to chose not to and wont.
It is important to learn what you can about ID, creation and evolution. But keep in mind, that people who don't believe in ID don't do so because of lack of facts. They do so because they are "at enmity with God".
Learn what you can. But salvation is up to the Holy Spirit, and the loving sharing of the Gospel.
Peace.
