This i big deal in my life!? I believe in Darwin personally, like God created human beings with Adam and Eve but the garden of Eden with all the animals actually symbolizes how there were animals first and than we evolved from animals!. I think I remember reading that God needed a human being to take care of the animals and be master of them!. So the egg came b4 the chicken!. AM I WRONG!? HELP!Www@QuestionHome@Com
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Well there is truth here and as aways it is relative!. Evolution is a fact but Man is not a part of this evolution in that man is a mutated being from the lower animal forms!. For this reason science will never find the missing link between animal and man no matter how hard they try!. Animals cannot and do not have the one thing which seperate us, Human Mind!. It can be explained at the in closed link!. http://www!.urantia!.org/papers/paper61!.ht!.!.!. 6!. EVOLUTION OF THE HUMAN MIND - P!.709Www@QuestionHome@Com Whether or not you "believe in Darwin" is irrelevant!. A vast body of evidence gathered over more than a hundred years by thousands of scientists puts the evolution of humans from ancestral animals beyond question!. You can believe whatever you like about what God had to do with it!. Everyone is free, of course, to "believe" otherwise!. But such belief is likely to foreclose the possibility of either being a scientist or understanding what scientists do!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Humans are animals!. Personally, I think we just "lucked out" in being such an advanced society!. Obviously brain power and everything plays the biggest role, but quite frankly, I've always wondered why it was us, humans, that became so advanced!. Picture if we were on the other end of the spectrum, and all the other animals were the advanced people, with buildings and technology and everything, and we were the animals!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com You are not wrong, but you are probably not quite right either!. I don't know how old you are, but you come across as quite young!. DON'T PANIC!!!!. I am a Christian, but don't believe in the literal truth of the Bible - even the most 'fundamentalist' pastor/priest/whatever would find it hard to convince anyone that the collection of writings written over several centuries and then translated from Aramaic, Hebrew, Greek, etc!., often badly, into English is THE word of God!. I happened to find comfort and help in the writings of Augustine and Ignatius Loyala, but by no means are they the solution for everyone!. Science is science; faith is faith!. I KNOW Darwin was (although not exactly right - see any recent scientific journals) on the right track!. I BELIEVE God created Darwin!. God bless!. (If life was meant to be easy there would be no point to it!.) David!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Who knows absolutely the answer to that query! I think, though, that yes, we did! I believe it is a migration from the smallest microbe to learn of Itself and become the highest It may become, a co-worker with Creator to one day travel at thought throughout all of what is!. I know, for me, that I am on my last life-time living in this physical vehicle to learn, grow and become my highest self ever I have been! Even before animals existed there was intelligent microbes striving to live and change It's energy-body so it could migrate to and upon Mother Earth and really start the process of becoming One with Creator and all of Humanity and all that is!. How would you love to become a free traveler throughout all that is and serve Creator by helping HUmanity and all other Beings that exist in all of all that is!? It was a great question!Www@QuestionHome@Com Darwin was right in his sleuthing!. We are evolved but somewhere at some point in time so long ago there had to be a first "human being" as we know us now!. There had to be a first!. As well as a second and third, fourth and fifth couple of men and women!. Logic dictates that!. What God was telling men forty-five hundred years ago was that "He" created all of it and the time slot He chose to use for us to understand was "day & night"!. That !.!.!. the first authors of God's breathed word could comprehend!. Do you think Moses and his peers could understand the physics of the "big bang" theory!? Or Einstien's E=MC2!? I don't think so and I don't think the prophets of old had the time to educate the Hebrews in the intricate mathematics involved before God carved out the commandments for you and I!. The problem with Darwin was not his theory but his apostasy!. He saw evidence of science and withdrew his faith in God as a result!. His problem was forsaking God!. Not his theory, but his refusal to believe that despite the evidence God created evolution and all we did was discover it!. Like Newton and his laws of gravity!. Gravity was always here but it took the mind of Newton to explain it to us, he did not say that gravity holds us down therefore God does not exist!. All he did was discover what God had created with everything else!. Darwin's own brilliance blinded him!. Poor Darwin!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Hi there! I think you are wrong to think that!. We don't come from animals simply because we are the only ones that can think, create, buid!.!.!. Why just us and not, lions monkeys!.!.!.!? Simply because we don't come from animals!. We have been created from God!. We have the sun, plants to eat, animals to eat!. Volcanos to heat up the ground, hills to protect us from the wind, water to drink!.!.!.!. is that all evolution!? How do you explain that we can make computers and have all what we need to progress in science and technology!? Is this again Darwin!? I don't think so!.!.!. I think personally, you should read the 3 main books: Torah, Bible and Koran and after reading you'll have your own opinion about our creation!. They all start with Adam and Eve but they are different books that tell you more about life and how it started!. Good luckWww@QuestionHome@Com No, you're not wrong, All the best available scientific evidence supports Darwin's theory of evolution by means of natural selection!. Any ideas people have about God's relationship with humans and animals are a matter of religious belief, not science!.Www@QuestionHome@Com We didn't evolved from apes, but we evolved from ape alike animals!. The scientist calls them Lucy, which was the first "ape alike" animal to started to stand up straight!. There's still 40% of her skelecton left in the museum, I think she was discovered in Africa!.Www@QuestionHome@Com I wasn't going to answer this until I saw what 'Millicent' said!. And I just have to clear up that dumb misconception about 'we evolved from apes'!. WE DID --NOT-- EVOLVE FROM APES!!!! That's a bit like saying that you evolved from me!. However!.!.!.!.!. Going back far enough I can guarantee that you and I have at -least- one ancestor in common!. And we have ancestors in common with the 'modern' hominids for the same reason!. We all descended from a much earlier species (which has been long extinct)!. I really do hope that clears up the silly Xtian misinterpretation of Darwinian evolution!. DougWww@QuestionHome@Com Darwin didn't say we came from animals, he said we all have a common ancestor!. There is a big difference!. You need to reread (or, I suspect, read for the first time) Darwin's Theory of Evolution!.Www@QuestionHome@Com I have never seen an animal produce a human sperm or egg!. The problem is that we have lived among the animals for such a long time they have become a part of our thinking process!.Www@QuestionHome@Com there isnt a right answer, so dont worry!. no offence, but it doesnt matter!. just believe what u need to be happy!. i mean it!. nothing else matters!. good luckWww@QuestionHome@Com You know wish I could really help you out with this question!

Interesting topic though!Www@QuestionHome@Com If you want an honest answer!.!.!.!. dont' go to a website where 90% of the users are atheists who disagree with the morals and principles that are outlined in the bible!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Yes, humans evolved from earlier species!.Www@QuestionHome@Com It's more important to be informed, than to have opinions!.Www@QuestionHome@Com No wonder you're weeping!. Yes, you are wrong!. Read the Bible!. John 3:16Www@QuestionHome@Com Yep, you're right ! For more evidence, just close your eyes, and try to picture some of our neighbors swinging from trees!.
