Well i need to clear this confusion. Accordng to the bible God created Adam and Eve and from them offsprings were born and so humans came into existence. But science says man evolved through, i dont know the right word but the best word would be chimps, since even now we are closely related to them. Science says rain is a nature's process and we all have learnt in school how rain clouds are formed. But according to bible all things were made by God. The stars, the sun, the moon, science says are planets, etc. But bible says God made the sun, the moon, the stars, etc. That's probably the reason why there is a big clash wheneever some miracles take place in some place or the other. our mind starts searching or comparing to the science logic and even though it may be a miracle, science gives it some theory and we agree to it. What do you have to say?

Creation or Evolution? there's lot of theories that points out that the world evolved...but if we think of it more deeply...we can't deny that there is a supernatural being involved in it...and that's God... it takes faith to believe...but i believe that i didn't came from a monkey...LOL!...

yeah, i know, nobody wants it either, right? sorry for that... what i'm trying to say is that God created everything and if we are trying to explain the creation of the world through theories (not just the monkey thing) we tend to question God being the Designer/Creator...science contradicts Creation -- that God created everything, because science believes that something is true when it can be proven...

Hi, I believe in God and that He created everything just like the Bible says He did. I also believe that good science will back this up and give evidence to support it. Thank you and God bless, leofa

If we had the ability to combine the two - Science and God - with the belief first and foremost in the idea that God (and what the Bible says) is true, combining them together might give more people a more sufficient ability to believe the possibilities. For example - The Bible says that God created the Heaven and Earth in six days. Now, if we continue to study the Bible in its entirety and we use the study of the meaning of words, their origin and we compare scripture to scripture, reverting back and forth to find the meaning of things, we discover - later on in scripture - it states, to God, a day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is as a day......and we consider the possibility that the two statements might go together, , , if we try to calulate (through Science) that one thousand years, times the number of years we KNOW the earth has been in existence, we might come up with the actual time frame (according to the Bible AND Science) the earth came into being. If that number calculates to near the time when scientist say the earth was 'created', we might realize that both Science and the Bible are correct. Within that same premise, we would be able to see the destruction of the dinosaur and the time frame in which it took place, the why it happenend (according to scripture) and see that it both Science and the Bible line up with each other. Given the proper 'in depth' study of things, we might be surprised at the end result. No more confusion, no more questions, mo more doubt - simply - a meeting of the minds and even deeper understanding of the truth..... What a novel concept??????

Even i am confused just like you and i don't have any answer for this question but i can say a few words regarding this topic that both God and Science exist and they are situation that both of them explained some theories quiet well. Another thing is that some of them were not explained by one and were well explained by the other. See it this way if We would have simply believed in God and not in Science we would not have made this much of progress in life. But if we did it the other way we would not have any hope, regulation, fear etc The more You think on this one the more you will get it. Good Day.

God has given us the intellect to understand many things. Learning is one way, in which how we should appreciate how a perfect God created all things. Science has proven many things yet science has also created, predicted, observed and has been mistaken. God has never been mistaken or being wrong. Only what has already been written in the Bible been proven right by Science. A man is blessed when he come to the knowledge of God and those who come to seek Him in faith and in truth.

I believe in god and in the bible. Think of this for a minute. Now, if science was right and humans came from a monkey, why are there still monkeys around? Wouldn't all the chimps be humans? If chimps and monkey evolved into humans then there would be no more monkeys around because all of hem are humans now. Somethings cant be explained. Thats just how it is.
