Ahem...

Yes, but not an artist's rendering, sketch, or imagination--an actual fossil.

But the problem with that is that's not how the theory of evolution works. We already have whales and hippos. You wouldn't see a hippo turn into a whale or vice versa, so you're not going to find a "transitional" fossil showing a hippo turning into a whale, and that just shows how poor your understanding of the theory really is.

Go back and study the 2nd law of thermodynamics, it explodes evolution.

No, it doesn't. Again, your lack of education shines through.

Yes, I do believe that "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God." (see 2 Timothy 3:16),

and that "...prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit." (see 2 Peter 1:21)

As for thermodynamics what does this have to do with evolution, I believe you are talking about the big bang and not evolution.

Yes I do agree that god did inspire his scribes but that man can not fathom the wisdom and knowledge that god has shown them, do you feel that man can know the wisdom of god? When I was young I thought that god told them what to write but now I believe that it couldn't be so because god is not misleading or vague where the bible is. It is a book of teachings through examples based on metaphors that show us his ways.

It is also not yours or my place to judge others, it is his will alone that he may judge. While I do admire your steadfastness in your view it is also full of pride and self rightness to others that have different views such as me would also believes in the loving father.

This is actually one of my favorite verses from any religious text:

Tell Christians that the punishment they desire to see exacted upon you is not theirs to decide; judgement belongs to God and God alone.
-The Koran 6:57

"Vengance is the Lord's . . . but I may be his vessel." (this was said in jest, though)

Why do you feel that you are being judged?

From the little I have been reading in this forum you seem to be judging others calling them illogical and irrational for believing in something that you do not and others like me that do believe in the all mighty because I do not believe that the bible is the literal word of god. You have to much pride in your righteousness of your belief, you offer no complements to others when they are deserving of them even if they disagree with yours. You do not know of these people that you call illogical or irrational and some maybe worth listening to and have information to share, after all we are equal in his eyes and we are his children.

Amen to you, brother.

I still don't understand how you can look at the bible literally and not see that it is the teachings but not a word for word account of what happened. Do you think man could comprehend what god would show him?

You said that you don’t understand how I can look at the Bible literally etc. and I replied that I don’t know how you can believe evolution when it—not you—has never been proven, doesn't make sense, is illogical, and irrational. Evolution has never been proven, doesn't make sense, is illogical, and irrational. That is my opinion. I dont' recall saying that you were any of those things.

I don’t see how or where I judged you in that post. Our posts to one another were essentially the same, the only difference is that you accused me of judging you (when I don’t believe that I did) and I did not accuse you of judging me.

Do you follow me?

JIA, please stop judging people of other religions. You're going straight to hell for this, mate.

It is not only just this post that I wrote to you but other responses to other that I have read and how you responded to them. Saying that which someone believes in is illogical and irrational is saying that the person is also this way, you are saying that they are because they believe in the illogical thing. I asked you why you believe the bible to be literal not why you believe evolution is illogical. I would not pass judgment on someone because they believe different from me, I would try and understand why and not say the things that you have posted. We should treat fellow children of god the way that we wish to be treated, understand and love them for who they are be it good or bad and encourage people to walk the path but not condemned them for this is his right and not ours.

Don't get your hopes up, kid. 😄

Everyone including you should be treated with respect and kindness or go by the golden rule if you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all. After all we all live together no matter what each of us believe.

Thanks. 😄

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another (John 13:34).

But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you (Luke 6:27-28).

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse (Romans 12:14).

Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing (1 Peter 3:9).
