[QUOTE="Presbyterian Continuist, post: 74757197, member: 105812"] The problem is that there is no substantive evidence for evolution. It is all guesswork about something that might have or probably happened. Actually, those who are working so hard at preserving endangered species of animals and bird are denying evolution, because they are working against natural selection in which it is the survival of the fittest. If a species is unable to survive in the natural, then isn't that how evolution works? The issue is that when godless scientists refuse to let the divine have a foot in the door, evolution is their only answer. But evolution is not a science because science has to be based on empirical evidence, which is non-existent for it. Creation is also not a science, because it involves God who created everything out of nothing in six 24 hour days. That is a supernatural miracle and cannot be supported by science. So, it comes down to whether we believe the first two chapters of Genesis or not. If we can't believe those two chapters as being the true historical account of the creation of the universe, then we can't rely on the rest of the Bible, including the promises of God involving our salvation. Therefore, we can't have any confidence that we are going to experience anything after death but absolute oblivion. After all, if we are just a bag of molecules and nothing more, what is the point of all our planning for the future, our aspirations, and quest for self-improvement and a better world, if at the end of our lives all we do is to rot in the grave and nothing more? So, deciding not to accept the first two chapters of Genesis as literal, accurate history, opens up a whole can of worms which we cannot resolve. [/QUOTE]
