Do you believe in creation or evolution?

Do you believe we are Gods created children? or do you think we evolved?

no doubt about that, house can not any greater than the house, god is the greatest

As a believer, I find it incredible that anyone can believe otherwise. It makes no logical sense to me, whatsoever, any thought other than that of an all wise super intelligent power, that thought of every tiny detail. Nothing left out. Everything works. Everything fits.

This did not happen by chance. Just not possible

I believe a little of both.
I believe God made everything and then because it is what it is, things started to evolve. According to HIS plan.

The Bible account for sure.

yes

Both...

God is a figment of the mind.
It's certain fact we evolved.

I think the Genesis account of creation and the story of Noah's ark are both very far fetched and it's impossible, in my opinion, that either one of them could be true.

More evidence for evolution and natural selection keeps turning up every year, so for me, that is the most logical explanation for the origin of life.

Evolution. Contrary to what people want to believe, evolution and creationism cannot coexist, they contradict each other. Oh, and by the way, the whole life's too complex to be an accident argument is ridiculous and flawed. First of all, life wasn't an accident, evolution is a series of causes and effects, just crack open a biology book.

Secondly, I find it ironic that people can believe two of every animal could fit on a boat and then propagate enough to refill an entire population, could also say that evolution makes no sense. People like that have no business arguing that something is illogical.

Deff evolution, but then there's the people who ask who/what created The Big Bang? True but then who/what created what we know as God? The figure of god could not have simply been there for no reason, if there is a God, it is either a myth or a form of energy yet to be discovered.

I know that GOD made humans.

evolution

I believe that we were created!!!

Au contraire, a fair number of Christians here are saying 'both', and I'm happy to join them. Evolution is amazing and absolutely fascinating. It neither proves or disproves the existence of a creator God, so many Christians are able to study the discoveries of science and find in them the extremely patient and very slow-moving work of God.

I believe that in the beginning of the Universe God diversified Itself into all of the Entities that exist in God's realm. God caused the Entities to go forth with the purpose of gaining knowledge and experience and then to ultimately gravitate back into the Oneness of God -- making God whole.

It is the Entities that caused/created the universe(s) and, through evolution, guided the physical realm into becoming what it is.

 
God and Reincarnation

I believe that God is a Creative Entity, Energy or Force that is found in a state of awareness outside of the universe and time.

I believe that God chose to morph part of Itself into minute particles of Itself described as entities or spirits and gave them the purpose to go forth and experience, gain knowledge and eventually return into the Oneness of God.

I believe that those collective entities created the universe and, utilizing evolution as a tool, created that that is life so that they could inhabit various bodies in order to gain experience and knowledge.

Prior to incarnating into a physical body the entity chooses what it wants to accomplish and what the probable circumstances involving that body and its environment will be. When the situation is right the entity then begins to dwell within the physical body, probably around the time of its birth.

When the body dies the entity dwells in a state of awareness where it can see whether it met its goals and what gains and losses it may have attached to its being. It then, again, decides what future goals it wants to achieve and reincarnates when the conditions are appropriate.

Ultimately, after incarnating as many times as necessary to attain its goals, the entity gravitates back into the Oneness of God adding to the fulfillment thereof.

I choose

I chose to be born, to live or die,
Even the sex, that would be I;
I chose the race, from which to appear,
Also my wealth, my health and my fear.

I chose my trials and stumbling blocks,
And the legs I would use, in all of those walks;
I chose my sadness, my joy and my love,
I chose to serve and not be above.

I chose this life with all of its dues,
And with each dawn, again I choose;
The experiences for me that wait ahead,
To be alive, or be claimed dead.

And of the future lives I've yet,
It is my choice that I begat;
All the things, however pleasin',
That shall befall me in those seasons.

The above is my opinion which is expounded upon in my treatise A Search For Truth:

From my chosen path I stray,
Yet my God any'er turns away;
For I have learned -- and understand,
That where God is -- is where I am!

evolution.
want to know why there is no way to prove that god didnt exist?.
..because theres no proof that he did.
end of story

Evolution.

The only reason there are christians here saying both, is because they KNOW it sounds silly to say creationism. They don't want to look stupid, but they don't want to look unfaithful to their religion. So they say both.

That's me. Hypocritical. Thanks.

hey guys, I agree with flossheal.

Evolution is amazing and absolutely fascinating. It neither proves or disproves the existence of a creator God, so many Christians are able to study the discoveries of science and find in them the extremely patient and very slow-moving work of God.

couldn't have said it better.

I know that evolution explains how we have become modern man. However, as a thought, exercise, is it possible that some alien could have started the process? Not some perfect God perhaps but a creator nonetheless. I'll keep my opinion out of it and see where this leads (if anywhere).

Btw: nice answer, Flossheal.

There's tons of credible evidence for evolution, so it really requires quite a bit of cognitive dissonance (or ignornace) to deny it.

That said, even if evolutionary theory is someday overturned, that would not imply that we were created by a loving god.
