Why then do people not exsept this free gift? this gift of happyness and joy. do not say that satan is not real. try to look at things as though you do not know for if we knew a thing would we not be happy and see that brotherhood is the only way? some say survival of the fittest, but i say no to that. only one can be the fittest, for example humans claim to be the fittest, but are we? we kill roaches all day and all night yet there numbers never deminish, we kill ants and bees in the millions a year, and they still live, yet if we killed millions of humans a year would we not be gone forever in just a few years? so let us not say survival of the fittest, but lets say survival of the blessed. we are very small to the bear, yet when it sees us it runs and trys to stay hidden when with one swipe it could devour us. belive me my friends we are not the fittest! but then we say well we have guns and fire power. think beyound now, or should is say think before now. when we had no guns, the animals still feared us. Not because we are fit or scary, but only because we are blessed by the Lord. How about another example, viruses they come kill us with ease and we cannot stop them, they kill at random with no anger or cause, yet take us out like nothing, knock us down like bowling pens, and we claim to be the fittest, but i tell you, no virus even though so deadly has deminished our population. it runs its course and dissapears as soon as it came. Blessed are humans, not because we have wills, but because we are of the Lords likeness! so then we claim knowlage as being our streangth. but what has knowlage done for you? mabey got you through school or how about got you the stock pile of money you have. yet this same knowlage has brought us death. lets look at war, we create weapons of death through our knowlage, this same knowlage sepreates us from God in outragouse claims of thinking of ourselfs as God. we think because we make meticine, or because we heal others with knowlage we are great. We think because we have an understanding of genes we are smart. but i say no. I say if we had any knowlage we would be peacful and work together to achive. would we not be able to achive anything as a team? even the simplest of us know that through a team more can be achived then alone. did columbus set sail alone? did henry ford build or desighn his cars alone? how about Jesus did he preach alone? No he had our Father the Lord and his aposles there by his side! So therefore let any man with knowlage know that through unity we can achive anything! What is there to hate out of unity? but is it not about love? our Lords main message! so how much is the Lord a cruch? any man who seeks unity is not in need of a cruch, but is in need of truth, or should i say in need of unity, through unity a man needs nothing! does not someone elses streagth cover his weakness, and his streagth cover others weakness? now we can see the Lord Jesus's word come alive! is his word not always around us? every day in our life does his word not apply? So therefore we can say his word is alive and not be ashamed! those who are alive live in the word because it is what made this world! did he not speak and create life? Now i ask you are you doing all you can to help in the salvation of the world? Many will blame you of pushing your belifes on others. but i say no! are you not just living the Lords word? fisher of men is what we need to aim for, who is lost? the man who does not know the Lords word and goes about life, or the man who knows his word but does not speak it to the lost! So if we read his word and belive it is alive, should we not speak it to those who do not know it? Remeber those who are not of Jesus or God are of satan. So although many none belivers claim they know the word, is it possible that they may not know it? for if the same word that lives for us, wouldnt it live for them too? a man who knows the word knows that it lives one who does not know the word thinks its dead. So what is dead about the word, when every day in our life it lives. So do not be ashamed when one says you are attacking them with your belief, rather be glade for it was written that the saits would be persecuted in the Lords name! So since the Lords word is alive, how can we say any one part is faulse? some will come about saying that the bible had to have been flip around and switched in the years it has been around. but i say no! What is Gods will? isnt it Gods will?! Is he not God? yes he is! So therefore how are any of us to say that his word has been changed when it is living! So if his word is alive then what is life? is it more then what we can see taste touch and smell? yes my friends! Life is beyond us and more then what we can touch! so should we say that a man is great? instead shouldnt we say, only through following the word a man is good. wouldnt it be better to say that the word is alive and we are alive through the word? so therefore is life not the word? has not every thing we need to know been givin to us? but only through our brains have we seeked! not through our God! many times it is said. Seek and you will find! listen and you will hear! so my friends have we not seeked through knowlage instead of God? Many will say, where are you cradentuls or say, where have you gotten your knowlage? let us not be ashamed to say "From my Lord on high!" So that when they say, What school did you go to, or who is your teacher. You will not be ashamed to say the Lord is my teacher, and the word is my guide! Any man can learn the word and claim to know somthing, but without God the word is nothing. But can a person not know God and nothing of the word, but still live? The word is our living guide, but our Lord created the word. So do not disregard teching of somone who doesnt know the word but knows God, because through God is the word, and if a man knows God does he not know the word?

Don't play the martyr. You are not being persecuted, I am just concerned that anyone old enough to be on here types in such a childish manner. In no way will you be taken seriously when it looks like a 5 year old wrote the material. Of course it seems garbage anyway.

Tyler, do you know what "survival of the fittest" is? It's a soundbite. It's shorthand for natural selection. Now, if you really want to know what natural selection is, I'll be glad to help you. But, in brief, natural selection is an unintelligent process to get design. Natural selection is directly responsible for the designs we see in plants and animals: wings for flying, lungs for breathing, hearts for pumping blood, etc. What you are echoing is a a philosophy called Social Darwinism. It isn't evolution.

think beyound now, or should is say think before now. when we had no guns, the animals still feared us. Not because we are fit or scary, but only because we are blessed by the Lord.
Not only. Humans are pretty tough customers. In Europe there used to live the cave bear. It could eat a grizzly for lunch! Yet soon after humans got to Europe cave bears became extinct. Humans wanted the caves. "Survival of the fittest" is not about competition between different species, it's about competition between individuals in the same species! No wonder you don't like evolution; you've got it all wrong!

Blessed are humans, not because we have wills, but because we are of the Lords likeness!
Ah, human pride si so wonderful to watch. No wonder it is a sin. Don't give praises to the Lord. Oh no! Give praises to us because we are in the likeness of the Lord! Sorry, but we are blessed ONLY because God chooses to bless us.

did columbus set sail alone?
You realize Columbus had to convince people that the Bible was not to be read literally that the earth was flat, don't you? Columbus succeeded because he did not read his Bible literally, but instead read God's Creation.

Now i ask you are you doing all you can to help in the salvation of the world?
Yes. I'm trying to keep Biblical literalists and creationists from driving people away from God and destroying Christianity. It looks like part of that job is to keep you from driving people away from Christ.

So if we read his word and belive it is alive, should we not speak it to those who do not know it?
No. What you should do is live the word. Actions speak so much louder than words. Minister to the poor, tend to the sick, champion the downtrodden. Speaking out is way too easy and cheap. Put your money where your mouth is.

Remeber those who are not of Jesus or God are of satan.
That isn't what Jesus said. See, so soon driving people away from Christ.

So do not be ashamed when one says you are attacking them with your belief,
Yes, be very ashamed. For that is not what Jesus taught you to do. He taught you to help and love people, not attack them. If they feel attacked, then you are not following Jesus.

So since the Lords word is alive, how can we say any one part is faulse? some will come about saying that the bible had to have been flip around and switched in the years it has been around. but i say no! What is Gods will? isnt it Gods will?! Is he not God? yes he is! So therefore how are any of us to say that his word has been changed when it is living!
Ah yes, here we are. The standard "Let's all worship the Bible :bow: " speech. The Bible says Jesus is the Living Word. Not the Bible. Sorry, I won't worship your false idol. Hopefully you can give this up and come back to God. But you look like one of those who is so besotted of his graven image that he can't leave it. I hope I'm wrong.

Seek and you will find! listen and you will hear!
Yes, we have looked for how God created in God's Creation and we have listened to what God has to say to us there. And we have found that God created by evolution. I wish you would listen to God too, but I'm afraid you can only listen to your false idol. It's very sad.

in reply to my friend who judges me, do you not understand that christianity is all about love and faith, no more and no less? It has nothing to do with reading creation or learning about creation, my friend, come to me with your belief not with whats wrong with mine, and you will have a good argument. My friend if all we do is try to find out whats wrong with each of us, that would cosume our life. Blessings to you, and i do know what evolution and survival of the fittest are, instead of scannig my writing, read it.
Evolution being that all creation came from the big bang wich was through somthing similar to an ammeba

Tyle, I'm not judging you. I am critically examining your statements. That's what happens in discussions. If you expect to make pronouncements that are accepted without question or challenge, you are in the wrong place.

do you not understand that christianity is all about love and faith, no more and no less?
Do you understand that it's also about works? Besides, remember that I wrote "Jesus taught us to love and help one another"?

It has nothing to do with reading creation or learning about creation, my friend,
Sure it does. God wrote two books. You want us to ignore one? Why would you try to tell us to turn our backs on God? Francis Bacon put this very well:
"To conclude, therefore, let no man out of a weak conceit of sobriety, or an ill-applied moderation, think or maintain, that a man can search too far or be too well studied in the book of God's word, or in the book of God's works; divinity or philosophy [science]; but rather let men endeavour an endless progress or proficience in both." Bacon: Advancement of Learning

"Man learns from two books: the universe for the human study of things created by God; and the Bible, for the study of God's superior will and truth. One belongs to reason, the other to faith. Between them there is no clash." Pope Pius Xii, Address to the Pontifical Academy of Science, Dec. 3, 1939.

come to me with your belief not with whats wrong with mine, and you will have a good argument.
I'm not after an argument, but a discussion.

Blessings to you, and i do know what evolution and survival of the fittest are, instead of scannig my writing, read it.

The second sentence contradicts the first. The second sentence shows your ignorance of evolution.

1. Evolution does not include the Big Bang. Evolution is in biology. Big Bang is cosmology/physics. Not only not the same theory but different disciplines within science.
2. The Big Bange is not similar to an amoeba. Big Bang states that the universe started as an infinitely dense, infinitely hot, infinitely small piece of space. Basically, Big Bang is when matter/energy (they are the same thing in different forms) and spacetime (time is a dimension of the universe) came into existence.

That "scanning" comment is ironic. Which of us uses quotes of the other's post? Me. That shows I did read your post. Your post shows you just scanned mine.

You to Lucaspa, maybe have a test prior to acceptance into this forum?

Can you clarify this? Is this just poor spelling our did you intend to insult me by changing my screen name to include the word "pus"?

Unbelievable. I would venture to guess that 80% of what you post is based on your critique of ones post structure, word usage, definition accuracy, and outright exchanging ones statements for a rewritten statement that you prefer.

Close the forum to folks you like so you can save yourself from the filth you have to put up with. Or drop the condescending attitude! I like many others come here to learn and weigh the case for my beliefs TE and C, thus far I have learned that this is an intelect and education contest rather than a discussion of topics that I love to learn about.

I am critically examining your statements.

I'm not after an argument, but a discussion.

Is this the case?

BTW, who funds your research? If you dont mind me asking.
