The bible is filled with "God created" yet modern cosmology and evolution theory points to no godly intervention. How do I believe in the Bible's message inspite of this?

It's in a different forum.This is a duplicate thread, so I recommend you contact the moderator to have it removed.
Thanks.It's in a different forum.
That may be against forum rules that are against spamming, but the moderators will make that decision, so you can leave it be and they can remove it if they deem it a violation. Don't worry, you'll not be in trouble.Can everybody see dir threads? I doubled it because I thought everybody would see this one.
But Jesus and Paul took Genesis seriously. There must have been some message that is real?When I was a Christian, I used to tell myself that Genesis was tribal mythology, not meant to be taken literally. Problem solved.

None of it has been "explained" by any means. So we are free to imagine the explanation as being whatever we want, and to believe it or not believe it as we choose.I don't see why this Creator is necessary, as all this progress can be explained with ordinary, familiar, actual causes.
"Cogito ergo sum?"None of it has been "explained" by any means. So we are free to imagine the explanation as being whatever we want, and to believe it or not believe it as we choose.
More like, "anything is possible when so little is known". We have no idea what caused or sustains existence in the way that it does. So we are free to imagine it's origin and purpose any way we like, so long as we remember that we are imagining rather than knowing."Cogito ergo sum?"

So what level of confidence should we demand before we believe something?More like, "anything is possible when so little is known".
