Against my better judgement I'll respond. David, you have talked previously about needing education/credentials to understand the subject at hand; while partially true, you can learn quite a bit without a standard "education" or "background" if you have the ambition to read what credible scientists and have written on the subject. Based on your writings here, you don't even have the fundamentals down of what science is, on any level. So if you're not a poe (I know it can be hilarious at times), a troll or something, I suggest you take a page from Jesus' book and approach the subject with a little humility.
Knowing that all of science either supports evolution or is irrelevant, and knowing that creationism posits eternal bliss for believers and eternal torment for those who do not conform, perhaps the BIG LIE is creationism, it's certainly BIGGER than evilution.
Perhaps you should read a biology textbook, or talk to a biologist, they'll tell you how integral evolution is and how evolution is what makes biology make sense. And of course, if you're interested, although you might have to convince them first, people here will be glad to go over the evidence for evolution with you.
Whenever you see the word "true", especially "TRUE" you know something fishy is going on; it's a classic propaganda technique. Which is why I avoided such when I played poe, it usually doesn't end well on forums like these. Also, we've learned a lot since Darwin, I know it's sort of opposite from a lot of religions; things like speciation and beneficial mutations have been observed in abundance. In fact, even most creationists don't deny this stuff anymore, the evidence for it is just too overwhelming. BTW, substituting in religious language when talking about evolution doesn't make evolution a religion. Or complaining about evolution not invoking the supernatural (can you give me one example where a scientific whatever invokes the supernatural?) doesn't really do anything beyond showing your ignorance on the subject of science and faith.
[/SIZE]Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ - Jesus, Matthew 7:21-23

I'm realy sick. My body aches my head is about to explode and I have a fever. Just reading the title of this thread made me laugh out loud and brought my spirits up a little.

Ah? You convinced me! Excellent opinion!
Design requires a designer. Scientists and engineers mimic and steal ideas from what God created, but give God no credit. Biomimetics is the study of design patterns in living things that can be copied and used to create new and better products and inventions.
The Bible explains where our faults and weaknesses came from. It is not the Designer that is at fault, but the one's designed that ignored the directions given by the Designer, and so suffered the consequences. (Romans 5:12)
We are wonderfully made, unique among living things. The one who created such wonders deserves praise and glory. "You are worthy, Jehovah, even our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they existed and were created." (Revelation 4:10,11)

I think this thread has cured me. Hallaluyah!!
Terry, you said we (humans) are reastricted to a small part of the world environment, not true. Our intelligence, reasoning and omniverous diet gives us the adaptability to suvive just about anywhere on the globe. Plop a camel down in the arctic or a polar bear in the desert and their done for in short order. A human with learned skills can not only survive but will be able to take advantage of the environment and flourish.
I think the only other life form capable of such is bacteria. Kinda ironic.

Such as...?
Wait a minute...are saying I can take something "God" created copy it to create new and BETTER products and inventions...? Sounds like this god fellow is kind of incompetent to me. Why not just create everything "perfect" without the need for improvements...?
So what you're really saying is, it is the designer's fault for not being able to know that creation would disobey him and think for themselves as he created them to...?...
..Your god sounds like a kid playing with an ant farm.No we're not. The smallest of unseen microbes can wipe us out easily. There are a multitude of things wrong withe the human body if we posit a designer. Take the senses to see, hear and smell....they pale in comparison to other animals. We're hardly the fastest animal on the planet. Yes, if we are designed then the designer did a crappy job.
I'll leave all the butt kissing up to you. Clearly this god gets an "F" in biology from me......

Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy also explains where our strengths and weaknesses come from, and it's a better story too. Not to mention Star Wars. Why bother with the Bible when we have all these superior works of fiction to incorrectly take as historical truth?

That life has evolved is not questioned by any reputable scientist. The only questions are the various theories of how life evolved.

I particlurly don't buy into the theory as they teach it in schools but I believe everything started with all information in tact and believe things are actually heading toward disorder. I believe the expanding universe plays a huge role but what do I know I am not a scientist.I believe the understanding will fall in physics.
