She said it may have only taken God seven days to create the earth, but what is seven days? Do we know that it was 7 days with 24 hours, or was it 7 thousand years? Depends on who's measuring the time I guess.<BR/>I agree, and I know that things are constantly evolving, I just know I'm not one of those things.Christahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06700383690878839987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551466722529127235.post-81878497070147277532009-03-29T18:19:00.000-08:002009-03-29T18:19:00.000-08:00Awesome!

I like what you said about Heavenly Father respecting our agency, because this life is a test, a time for us to have agency in order to prove our faithfulness. "And we will prove them herewith, to see if they will do all things whatsoever the Lord their God shall command them." <BR/><BR/>And I LOVE Corrie Ten Boom. The Hiding Place is one of my very favorite books.

It drives me crazy when people who don't have religion decide that if you want religion you must be a weak-minded moron incapable of independent thought. And it makes me proud to see intelligent church members stand up for themselves.Brittany Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05986722431429592182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551466722529127235.post-28969928149284879882009-03-29T16:33:00.000-08:002009-03-29T16:33:00.000-08:00Couldn't agree with you more!

And about Virgin births well - they can and do happen today so I am not surprised that there were stories about it before the real deal.Samurai Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06410319102135155577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551466722529127235.post-28202314139724826772009-03-29T16:17:00.000-08:002009-03-29T16:17:00.000-08:00By the way, the evidence for evolution is pretty s...By the way, the evidence for evolution is pretty strong. Small details might change, but the big stuff--the type of stuff you'd learn in an intro biology class--has enough evidence behind it that it's here to stay. Science can't give us final answers (otherwise research scientists wouldn't have anything to do), but it does a lot more than just give best guesses. We use what we know about evolution to fight diseases and battle pests.<BR/>Also, 600 years ago, we did know the earth was round. Scientists had it figured out long before Columbus set sail.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17639488637387728713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551466722529127235.post-65875713031438497982009-03-29T16:08:00.000-08:002009-03-29T16:08:00.000-08:00Thanks for this.I think Maher is like Ann Coulter ...Thanks for this.<BR/>I think Maher is like Ann Coulter or Rush Limbaugh--extremist and not someone I'd ever want to meet.<BR/>I'd give pretty much the same responses you did, except I'd say that God used evolution in his creation to create all living things--even humans (after all, both religion and science tell us that we're made from the dust of the earth).Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17639488637387728713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551466722529127235.post-23157829797322391042009-03-29T16:03:00.000-08:002009-03-29T16:03:00.000-08:00I didn't watch it just because I can't stand Bill ...I didn't watch it just because I can't stand Bill Maher! UGH.<BR/><BR/>Also - evolutionists don't really believe that men came from apes. They're just a shared relative. I share your same thoughts about evolution and creationism. I don't think they're mutually exclusive and why wouldn't God use natural laws for creation? Makes sense to me.sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162027621928554963noreply@blogger.com
