You know, it's a completely subjective thing, and that's why it's hard to argue about it. Person "A" sits in a corner and says I put my faith in what these evolutionists say because their reasons make sense...person "B" sits in the other corner saying I put my faith in what this bible says because it seems to speak to the world in a way no other book does. I'm sure both our opinions seem very odd to the other, but it's important to get across that I used to be atheist (and buddhist but that's aside from the point) and held evolutionairy views, though even at that time I had much skepticizm about them. I at least know where they come from, and the mindset that needs them, but there came a point in my life where most of my questions that went unanswered were answered when I finally gave up and asked God.
did you give up and ask god or did you look to the bible.


the biggest, and most flawed mistake in "looking to god" is that people look to RELIGION(s), and never once speak to god or listen to what GOD has to say.
