I agree it is surprising that genetics shows that there are "throw backs" to our heredity but in the case of monkeys it doesn't seem to happen (not even a "transitional" do we see )
Perhaps we didn't evolve at all. I wonder if that has ever been considered?

Possibly, but there's hope. People change.
I remember I first de-converted to atheism when I wasn't much older than him, I was sort of "evangelical" in my dealing with other people--"how can't you not believe". I'm sure I was annoying as anything. Time mellowed me, and now I don't really bother people in their personal lives. Of course the fact that I live in a country which is about 95% defacto atheists is another factor.
Passion is common in the young. Learning how to control and utilize it effectively comes with wisdom
I really can't relate to it myself. Going to a Catholic grade school that discussed evolution has a lot to do with it. I don't know if it was the times, the geographic area, or a combination of both, but there wasn't any opposition to evolution. There was a small clique of "Jesus freaks" in high school, but they were just religious hippies. Peace and love was their message; I doubt the subject of evolution ever entered their minds.BeamMeUpScotty said:Possibly, but there's hope. People change.

Only since the dawn of civilization has it been considered that we didn't evolve.Perhaps we didn't evolve at all. I wonder if that has ever been considered?
I'm fairly certain Scotty isn't a teenager.coolstylinstud said:Ok thats enough about me being young please stop i am a teenager just like you exept im a christian
I wish it were true. It just aint so.The fact is everyone knows that there is more out there. Wether you sense it or not but there is a god watching you a god that loves you and that wants you to be part of his family.

That's fine. No one is questioning your faith. It's your literal interpretation of Genesis that is mis-informed.coolstylinstud said:The fact is everyone knows that there is more out there.

Many (dare I say most) Christians have no difficulty learning evolution without losing their faith
