Yes. Evolution is God creating.For people who believe in God do they also believe in the Big Bang and evolution?
they guess Adam and eve could've been made 50 to 200,000 years ago. But why did God have to make 2 people when there Were Homo sapiens in droves on the earth already evolving? Something seems weirdYes. Evolution is God creating.

With a whole metaphorical lineage too I guess. Then I guess the whole Bible is metaphoricalThe idea is that Adam and Eve are simply metaphorical representations of the first true homo-sapiens to evolve.
Yes. There is something weird. I don't think the bible is meant to be read that way. Adam and Eve are symbolic figures that represent humankind. They are not a separate species, but representative of homo sapiens, biologically, but more importantly existentially, or dealing with what it means to be a self-aware human being.they guess Adam and eve could've been made 50 to 200,000 years ago.

Yes, the Bible is metaphorical, along with human imaginations of what the world was like before having a scientific advantage. You'll find it's not all that accurate when it comes to technical details about the earth, or human history and evolution. They simply did not have that advantage we do today. Some parts are historical, other parts are myths and legends.With a whole metaphorical lineage too I guess. Then I guess the whole Bible is metaphorical
from your perspective it is a science book. So what does Jesus supposed to symbolize?Yes. There is something weird. I don't think the bible is meant to be read that way.

Don't read the bible as a book of science. It'll just confuse you.
What do you mean? No, from my perspective bible is not scientific. Not at all. I do not believe that, and encourage others to not confuse themselves, thinking it is.from your perspective it is a science book.
A lot. Too much for a short response.So what does Jesus supposed to symbolize?
Yes, sensible and scientifically literate believers in God recognise that the big bang and evolution theories are the best models we have in their fields of science.View attachment 41104 For people who believe in God do they also believe in the Big Bang and evolution? if not when do they think the world began?
Why do so many people believe that Jesus actually existed but not Adam and Eve?Yes, the Bible is metaphorical, along with human imaginations of what the world was like before having a scientific advantage.

There is historical evidence for the existence of Jesus, independent of the gospels.Why do so many people believe that Jesus actually existed but not Adam and Eve?
There are historical markers that a real man named Jesus existed. There are no such evidences for a historical Adam and Eve. They are mythological in nature, meant to stand in symbolically for humankind in a storyline.Why do so many people believe that Jesus actually existed but not Adam and Eve?
Well you told me that Adam and eve symbolize the first Homo sapiens which is scientific aint it?What do you mean? No, from my perspective bible is not scientific. Not at all. I do not believe that, and encourage others to not confuse themselves, thinking it is.
