Can you belive in both

can you belive in both god and evolution?

Yes... one does not preclude the other. Unless you take the bible (or some other religious texts) literally... then you cannot...

u can believe in whatever you want 2...I myself am atheist sooo...EVOLUTION!

I think you can. I do in anycase! There are parts of evolution that I dont agree with but a lot of it that I do.

I do!!! I believe He created evolution!!!

Most people believe in god and also accept evolution, so yes, it's possible.

Yes. Creation and Evolution balance eachother out.
Its perfectly fine.

Evolution does not deny the existence of god, but it does not require the exitence of god either.

Even the catholic church has officially said that they don't consider their teachings to conflict with evolution. It's only hardcore biblical literalists (mostly young earth creationists) who insist otherwise.

yes

I believe that certain things do evolve, however, I do not believe in anything being created outside of God or his ability that is given to man, thru wisdom and understanding, being created.

God is the author of everything that is.

I believe in the Big Bang theory, because God said, Let there be... and there was.

Without him, nothing is made, apart from his wisdom and ability.

Science is the study of what is. Not the author of creation. It does have limited powers, but, those powers were given by God. Anything else is futile.

I also find when reading genesis, it seems to be more a figarative explaination rather than a literal one. It seems more concerned with what happened rather than exactly how it happened if that makes sense.

I believe in God and ADAPTATION. I don't believe that man came from monkeys, but I believe that creatures can change a decent amount via adaptation to adjust to their environment. I dunno, that's my compromise, I guess. it works for me.

***I don't believe that man came from monkeys***

...nobody does... what was the point of saying that?

Does NoBody no the Bible at all??? How can you believe in evolution and that God created the earth??? That is just condradicting urself!!!??

One is nowere near the other

and quite personally I cant understand how a big bang created the universe??? last time I new an explotion distroyed things??? thats just common sense!!!

...and, the first of the young earth creationists checks in.

...yeah, welcome.

Here's your chair... and here's your helmet.

I believe in both. I believe evolution was set into motion by God.

**I believe in both. I believe evolution was set into motion by God.**

How can your believe in both??? If you believe in God then your believe the Bible, And the Bible says God Created everything??? so there for your theory that you believe in God is quite flawed.

xchurdlex: Really? Do you honestly believe that adulterers and unruly children should be stoned to death, that you shouldn't wear garments of mixed cloth, that every single animal on earth lived within walking distance of Noah's ark (and boarded in less than 24 hours), and that Jonah literally lived inside a whale before being spit up whole and unharmed?

If the answer to any of those is not really, then you, too, don't take the bible literally.

arachnid: I totally believe in everything that you just said!! Because God said so, and for that I believe it!!! and as for the Stoning, in this day and age there are people on this earth that shud be stoned to death or at least hung!!! I dont mean children or adulterers. But as I believe if you die in your sins, you have a lot more to worry about after death than you do on this earth! I will always take the Bible literally.

lucky for me tho, this world is the worst hell I will every know!!!
