Do you believe in Evolution?

Ya I'm a full fleged (bad spelling) spamer now!

Precisely.

When christianity came into wide circulation the church declared pretty much any symbol or idea from the old religions to be "demonic".
Many deities from the old Celtic beliefs had antlers or horns, thus horns were added to the christian devil.

As far as I remember the pentagram actually stood for the harmony of elements or something similar. Fire, Water, Earth, Air and Spirit. Not sure though.

And (At least according to Wikipedia) was taken to reflect the 5 wounds of Christ. Apparently it's only as of the 20th century that it's come to mean anything evil.

There are some that believe it means different things depending on which way it points.

Actually, when it's filled in red colour it's also a sign for the red army.

Why would I believe anything else?

[blackmage_nuke]

I think people dont understand evolution and think we come from monkey's because of pokemon

Besides if creationsim is right then why arent we all the same race and inbred?

[bipper]

inbreeding would happen either way in many instances. And many European decent will find some inbreeding in their tree. As far as race/color a lotta religions deal with this differently. Christianity at the tower of Babel.

Doesn't really work you see. You only had Eva and Adam. That's two people and we have three distinct races, i.e. Caucasians, Africans and Asians. No matter how you long Adam and Eve mate, they can only produce the offspring either as Race A, Race B or Hybrid Race AB. Neither of the above stated races are hybrids of two others. And if you consider the "third race" (sounds like Third Reich really) developing due to the environment, that's your proof of evolution.

If we assume that they were both heterozygous monohybrits, it should look something like this here:




NB: I tried putting that down as politically correctly as I could. If you do manage to get upset about it, sorry, wasn't my intention.

[bipper]

well, what I said eludes to the tower of babel, when God scorned the races and gave them different color/languages. If you are into that kinda thing.

I know the story, but if we start with Adam and Eve, how do we ever get to the Babel? As far as I remember he only game them different languages. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

>>> I don't believe in evolution. I believe in Digivolution.

The whole point of the bible stories is to teach a moral lesson and give answers to things that were unknown at the time.
Not be a documentary.
