ORIGINAL: lazarus1983 quote:
ORIGINAL: lusciouslips19 I never believed in Santa. I was raised jewish. I am not religious but I do believe in a higher consciousness and higher power. I do believe in evolution. I do not believe the world was created in 6 days. Unless you say day is am arbitrary definition. I have seen enough unexplainable things. Kismet, psychic phenomenon, energy exchange, ESP that gives pause as there can be no other reason than a higher power. How can random things line up in such a way that my mother knew something happened by gut and saved grandmas life. The other thing is I teach science and anatomy. They are both marvelous things. Science does explain alot. But the fact that the body is such a miracle and makes perfect sense. The marvels of the immune system. cellular anatomy physhics. Science makes too much sence to be random. Some power with an incredible consciousness had to create it. Thats what I believe. Adaptation, my darling. That is the real miracle, the human ability to adapt. Our bodies are still adapting, still changing. We are anything but intelligently designed. Our poor lower back is a perfect example. We may be walking upright now, but our lower backs haven't quite gotten there yet. What did we adapt FROM? I want to know what started this whole thing we call evolution? NOTHING???? big bang theory? logic please man We evolved from some form of primate. Logic? You point out to me the logic in religion. And here's our good man Robert A. Heinlein on religion: The most preposterous notion that H. sapiens has ever dreamed up is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of all the Universes, wants the saccharine adoration of His creatures, can be swayed by their prayers, and becomes petulant if He does not receive this flattery. Yet this absurd fantasy, without a shred of evidence to bolster it, pays all the expenses of the oldest, largest, and least productive industry in all history. The second most preposterous notion is that copulation is inherently sinful.
