Blasphemy and Contempt of Christianity
It is considered blasphemy to insult or mock Christianity or any part of the Trinity-Father (God), Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit.
...just...FYI
Exactly. Much better stated than I did.Interesting point. I took @Phred 's remark to be a kind of reductio ad absurdum put down of this Challenge thread the principle of which, in my opinion, casts an unjustifiably negative light on Christianity. Thus any mocking of Christianity is inadvertently coming from the OP and Phred is merely pointing this out. My own posts here have certainly had that intention, to highlight what a silly thread it is. Of course I may just be reading between lines that exist only in my imagination.
The best answer I can give is that for myself they are one and the same.Which is superior: Creation or Evolution?
Where an individual puts their faith will determine how they interpret the evidence: God's Holy Word or man's imperfect word.Which is superior: Creation or Evolution?

"Many Christians" who reject God's Holy Word...Many Christians also accept evolutionary biology among other things related to science. Science and religious belief are not mutually exclusive concepts.

It was Jesus who said: And then I will declare to them, "I never knew you; leave Me, you who practice lawlessness."
You shouldn't do that then. Please try to stay on topic......declaring other Christians as not being Christians is against the forum rules.

Simply quoting you...and the implications of your claim.Except I didn't do that. I was cautioning you about what you were implying in your own post.

True that... You said "Many!"My original post was simply: "Many Christians also accept evolutionary biology among other things related to science. Science and religious belief are not mutually exclusive concepts."
That's it. I never suggested that Christians that accept science are not Christians.
True that... You said "Many!"
True Christians, believers in Jesus Christ as LORD and Savior, believe in God's Holy Word, and have faith in the Genesis account of God's creating the universe and everything (all things) in it.
Now THERE is a winning post!Where an individual puts their faith will determine how they interpret the evidence: God's Holy Word or man's imperfect word.
But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
Which is superior: Creation or Evolution?
As I said earlier:To take this back to the OP and maybe spark a more interesting discussion, why the dichotomy in the first place? Why does it have to be Creation OR Evolution?
Even the title of the forum is Creation (AND) Evolution.
I'm curious as to why some see the need to drive a wedge between them.
Nature makes mistakes; our Creator didn't.
As I said earlier:
Since both God and evolution are by nature inerrant, it would seem to be a tie.Which is superior: Creation or Evolution?
LOL -- I like your name.Since both God and evolution are by nature inerrant, it would seem to be a tie.
