I once believed in evolution but now I have my doubts. Gorillas of ancient times are still Gorillas today. They have not changed. Nor has plant life or the birds that fly in the sky.

What I believed happened is that we were visited by universe travelers who seed planets that can support life. Just as we will do in the far off future. Even in our life time when our astronauts visit Mars we will leave some DNA behind.

how can you as a Christian believe life was started and not by God as God's word tells you?

Correlation is not causation.

Life is Christ.

The DNA that creates DNA was created from another DNA that creates DNA

Some one had to create the DNA. Given the complexity of DNA which we still do not fully understand it hardly seems reasonable that it just came about through mutation since mutations generally do not survive.

Physical evolution is almost always downward not upward. Only by intervention from an outside source do we see positive evolution.

Evolution: Fiction
Aliens: Fiction
Conspiracies: Probably 99.9% Fiction

GOD made the universe, the earth and us.

Animals have definitely changed of the course of the time God has built the earth. Dinosaurs met a disparaging death from what can only be speculated as drowning from the flood.

Plants have naturally GMO'ed themselves. (This is not an opened topic of Human GMO) Corn few hundred years ago did not look like the corn we eat today. Thank you natural selection. Survival of the fittest, was just a little off.

Big Bang= Creation, flat and simple. Something was just popped into existence thanks to our Creator.

Evolution, hmmm. So me a complex life form begun billions of years ago from a single celled organism...I aint buying that.

Tooldtocare, I wonder sometimes why God has built the universe so big for us to be the only ones. That will just be a question to ask the Man upstairs.

What has caused you to think that the planet was seeded by universe travellers?

I believe it all comes down to faith in the Word

GEN.1 [9] AND GOD SAID, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.[10] And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.


It was by the WORD of God that the earth was created

2 PETER [3] Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, [4]And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.[5] For this THEY WILLINGLY ARE IGNORANT of, that BY THE WORD OF GOD the HEAVENS WERE OF OLD, AND THE EARTH standing out of the water and in the water:

We are in those last days. At the time God spoke the WORD He created the heavens and the earth to look to be old. So why would God have made the heavens and the earth to appear older than they actually were at the time of creation? Was He trying to trick us? Do ya suppose it could simply come down to a matter of faith? Those with faith in God believe that God created the heavens and the earth just as the spoken Word says, even though the evidence for this is not seen.

HEBREWS 11 [1] Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.[2] For by it the elders obtained a good report.[3] THROUGH FAITH WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE WORLDS WERE FRAMED BY THE WORD OF GOD, SO THAT THINGS WHICH ARE SEEN WERE NOT MADE OF THINGS WHICH DO APPEAR.

It really does comes down to faith. You wont be able to prove that God created the heavens and the earth (as the Word says) through science or in a debate. Common sense? Yeah. Go outside on a clear night. Look up. Think. If then you don’t understand...you dont understand.

Remember what is written in Mark 9:23, "Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth." So who is to say?

Gen 1:9-10
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

So if earth didn't appear from under the waters until after firmament called Heaven was made in Genesis 1:6-8 then how could the earth have been standing in and out of the water before then?

I would love to hear how they explain the evolution of trees, if the genetic drift takes (x) number of years per species,
considering the number of trees, it would take of over 38 billion years for little over half to have evolved into the different varieties that current exist today.

Mutations are real and for a outside positive evolution comes from the inside out. if the outside source has to intervene for the evolution to be positive is that in its self becomes its own positive evolution or rather mutated from a outside source.
