Creationism
Nov 30, 2005

This is a response to another blog. I'm not sure if it went through, so here are my thoughts on why creationism is a waste of time to prove...

It has been a long road that I have been walking down to find some peace in my soul with spirituality. ... Religious stories of any kind are just that "stories". People rely too much on taking the Bible and other religous texts as factual. Though some information in it can be proven as fact, the book itself is a story. Much the same as any author writes stories. Well, a collection of stories. A Norton's anthology if you will! It was compliled by religious leaders of the time and many religious texts and stories were thrown aside. Banned from the canon. We only have a glimpse into the religious texts that made up Christianity because the "leaders" of the time were also the ruling, wealthy males of the time. Vast amounts of religious information was censored and cleansed before reaching "The Bible". It cannot be trusted even for what it is! ... All cultures have creation stories that cannot be proven scientifically. Why is there such a controversy about whether this story is true? It is absurd to think that you could prove the existence of events in a story. Does anyone try to prove the existence of Oz or Munchinland?

people look up for answers when the real answers lie within and around you. they arent up. i dont understand why creationists say that it is so far fetched that we derived from apes, but they themselves believe that an imaginary man in the sky created everything through the tip of his finger. and also they see this as an adequate alternative to Darins FACT of Evolution. they are a funny bunch of people arent they...lol... they remind me of the boy from Deliverance, funny, and curious to look at but realy evil little bastards...lol... go Darwin...
