as a believer in evolution (sure it's a theory, but it has a hella lot more evidence then creationism) and also a believer in a higher power (aka God), I have a hard time with both sides when they get as hard-core as some of you are getting.

Now most believers in creationism seem to base their views upon the Bible (not all of you, but most), but what boggles my mind is the fact that the Bible was written by men. God didnt fax it down from heaven, it was written by people (and edited by a pagan roman emperor for that matter) and because it that, it should not be assumed to be completly accurate, and should not be used as "proof" of creationism.
The Bible is a nice book that gives very good suggestions for how to live you life, but it cant be all true, because Man is imperfect, and Men wrote the Bible.

Now evolution doesn't contradicts the existence of God in the least. Since we evolved, there cant be a God? Just because the Bible seems to contradict it (and only in the first book) doesnt mean that some of the bible can't be true. Thats like finding a typo in a textbook and assuming the whole book is wrong.

I dunno, maybe it's just my innate dislike of people too blinded by their beliefs to give others a chance, but is it really that hard to believe that God and evolution can go together like peas and carrots?

sorry for my rambling, i hope ya'll can decipher it and find some nugs of importance in it
