mhess13 - Darwin references the Creator IN HIS WORK. You should read it before you make accusations like this.mhess13 said:Darwin did good work alright, he did satan's bidding to come up with a dumb theory to cause people to believe that there is no creator and damn their souls to eternal hell.
Nice work Charlie.
Maybe you should look at the result of his work. Countless people have turned from belief in God because of evolution.notto said:mhess13 - Darwin references the Creator IN HIS WORK. You should read it before you make accusations like this.
The only way evolution and Christianity are compatible is if the Bible is a complete lie. If God lied about creation, or if it is an allegory, then maybe your salvation is only an allegory too!notto said:No, countless people have turned from belief in God because they have been told by other Christians that science is wrong and they should not accept evolution. When they actually become educated on the theory and accept it and other science, it is the Christians who lied to them and told them that science and evolution is incompatible with the bible that are responsible for them turning from belief in God.
Evolution does not equal atheism.
Countless people have no problem accepting evolution and still being Christian and accepting God as the Creator.
You should actually read some Darwin. You seem to be fairly misinformed about what his work actually says.
The theory of evolution says nothing about the existence or lack of existence of God. Just like the rest of science. The theory of evolution explains the diversity of life on the planet. That is all.
The article you linked to has more to do with geology than evolution. Is mainsteam Geology the work of Satan as well?
The reason people lose faith is because there are people who constantly tell them that they can't be Christian and accept modern science. When they realize modern science is well supported, they are forced into the false dilemma of choosing God or choosing what they know from science.mhess13 said:Maybe you should look at the result of his work.

Just because Charlie mentioned a creator doesn't mean a thing--evolution needs no creator and certainly not the creator in the Bible!

The theory of evolution does not address the origin of life. Darwin attributed the origin of life to the Creator.hesalive said:A while back I posted the proposition "What is the difference". I posed the question "What is the difference between Theistic evolution and Atheistic evolution?" As I expected there was little response, but the response was in substance exactly what I expected. "There is no difference". Evolution theory is the same with or without God. The question of origin is the most basic to the human question and when it can be answered in a way that does not necessitate a creator, then the subsequent implications of accountability and conviction can be dismissed. This broad road is much more appealing and has had many travel it. No my friend, evolution theory does say something about the existence of God. It says He is not a necessary component of our origin. If you were uncomfortable with the mandates of God upon man to lead a holy life, what would be more appeasing to the conscience than evidence that God is not necessary in balancing the human equation?
Misled is an understatement. Demon posessed would probably be more accurateBonhoffer said:I think he was a very intelligent man and a brilliant scientist. However I beleive he was wrong!
Not all creationists hate Darwin, I just beleive he was misled; thats all!!
I am serious as a heartattack.Chi_Cygni said:Demon posessed? Problem is that you probably are putting that forward as a serious hypothesis.

Funny how the TE crowd scoff at the Bible except for salvation by grace. They throw out the whole Bible except for the part they like.
Or maybe your interpretation is not correct? We are all fallible.mhess13 said:The only way evolution and Christianity are compatible is if the Bible is a complete lie. If God lied about creation, or if it is an allegory, then maybe your salvation is only an allegory too!
