which of any person alive, either in 1872, or in 2009, has the temerity to state with any affirmation that his (or her) religion is the true one? Hooty, that's the one.
That was a good post, Guodzilla. At an old thread of mine I explained how I underwent a process very similar to Darwin's, vis-à-vis my Faith. This had nothing to do with evolution, but with a growing realization that the God "description" I was reared believing in did not fit the facts. That we can't understand God, much less try to "box" Him. My teachers assumed evolution as matter of fact, BTW.
Evolution theory, and Science, does not go against God. It does go, forcibly, against a literal interpretation of the Bible, because those writing the Bible weren't very concerned about Science. Couldn't care less, I suspect.
I say that the Christian Religion, some sects more than others, are fundamentally wrong in that they claim to be the only true ones. That has nothing to do with poor Darwing; if he had not been born this fundamental flaw would still be there. Of course when one starts believing oneself to be the only official translator of the Word Of God, things start going downhill from an already flawed start.
But that is only MY OPINION, folks !!! I MAY be WRONG !!! Don't let me pick your brains !!! |
