I hate to stir anything more up but I can't resis

To Japan, Stephie, and A.W.:Sorry for the late reply, but I was having serious thinking issues.I wanted to ask you three, do you think Cooldawg is wrong in studying evolution? Yes, he says he believes in it now, but he also said he still believes in God and Jesus. Don't you think you guys are jumping too quickly in questioning his faith?It's not exactly the end of the world if one devout believer goes to study science. In fact, this is starting to turn into some serious irony. In the last thread, all you three defended him for his faith. But in this thread, you three question him because of his new interest in science.A bit...unfair, don't you think? For you to ask, "what do you believe in most?"? As long as you all love and believe in God, then what does it matter?

I dont think he's wrong in studying it. Why are u just asking the three of us? we arent the only ones involved in this discussion.Cooldawg.. I think you should watch a documentary called zeitgeist (sp?)

This was your first post and that's the feeling I got from it, unless I'm mistaken of course: Originally Posted By: StephieJwow.. I cannot believe u just said that.You BELIEVE in evolution now? That's crazy.. I can't believe I backed you up so much before.. but hey.. I'd do that to most people who are interested in learning in my beliefs. And the reason I asked you particular three is because you all had the same reaction. I got the feeling from you three that you believe he's not a real Christian because of his curiosity of science. But if I'm wrong, then I'm wrong.He's still a believer, so there's no need to question it.

No one book contains all of the answers, no one book should be trusted alone. Read more, learn more.

You definetly turned my words around to fit how you wanted them to sound. I definetly didn't mean it in the way you obviously think I did

Then how did you mean it? Because I interpreted it the same way VS did.

Of course you did. I was shocked to hear what he was saying. wern't you? :confused:

I was a a bit confused and, as I said in a previous post, a bit disappointed, but not shocked. A Christian that believes in evolution is not that odd, there are many of them out there. Even the late Pope John Paul II agreed that it was most likely the best explanation.

Quote:do you think Cooldawg is wrong in studying evolution?nope. Quote: Yes, he says he believes in it now, but he also said he still believes in God and Jesus. the boy is so confused. Quote:Don't you think you guys are jumping too quickly in questioning his faith?I think he needs to get his facts straight. Evolution and Creationism blatantly disprove each other. There is something called theistic evolution. That's fine. But if he's a theistic evolutionist then he's not a Christian he's a... theistic evolutionist lol. I'm not jumping on him. But he doesn't sound like he knows God at all sad to say.  Quote:In the last thread, all you three defended him for his faith.Actually according to HCL, I replied to that thread like three times and that was to lighten things up lol. Quote:But in this thread, you three question him because of his new interest in science.I question if he really KNOWS God. It's nice to be all technical but he's missing the point.  Quote: "what do you believe in most?"?I never asked that. That's on him, not me. What he believes in is his choice. Just don't claim you're a Christian and know God when you're accepting something that denies His entire existence. That's all I'm saying. Quote: As long as you all love and believe in God, then what does it matter? I've been saying that for like...ever. lolBut actually, I do believe in the origin of evolution. God spoke and BANG it happened lol. Corny I know but I couldn't help myself.

God is my penis.

Quote:But if he's a theistic evolutionist then he's not a ChristianThe great majority of Christians do not believe this. The view that the only correct interpretation of the first chapter of Genesis is one that requires creation to have taken place over six literal days is a minority view among Christians, despite its strength in the US. Nor is this some recent modernist deterioration in standards. The literalist approach to biblical exegesis has never been orthodox.

for real? that's a shame. don't they read? whattaya gonna do?I don't know if this relates to anything but you said US lol. I once heard an evangelist say (speaking on evangelism) that Europe is cold, Africa is hot, and America is lukewarm pertaining to the Scripture verse that says to be hot or cold but if you're lukewarm He wants nothing to do with you.

I have lost patience with this ridiculous conversation. I haven't read that last hundred posts and I never willI have to ask you this, as you don't believe in the scientific explanation of our world, might you believe that it was created on the back of a turte with a little piece of mud delivered by a deep diving otter?or even.... these ?why is the "chistan-non-science" idea the right one?

you have a pretty fiesty attitude.

im kidding jeez

Chuck Norris can kill two stones with one bird.

Chuck Norris was the fourth wise man, who gave baby Jesus the gift of beard, which he carried with him until he died. The other three wise men were enraged by the preference that Jesus showed to Chuck's gift, and arranged to have him written out of the bible. All three died soon after of mysterious roundhouse-kick related injuries.
