    This just goes to further prove that the Catholic Church is an Apostate Church with zero credibility. It does not represent God, Jesus, or anything that is Holy. In fact it has committed the one unforgivable sin with it's ludicrous pro-evoution propaganda: committed blasphemy against the Holy Spirit by saying that the Word of God is a lie.

    May they all burn in hell...that's after they've been stoned for heresy....

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    God is a being of light, truth and love... hardly make sense for such a being to lie or create a web of lies.

    Are you saying that God doesn't have the capacity to create a Universe that will evolve creatures that seek Him out?

    Your question is a moot point because that is not what God did and the Bible is very explicitly clear about that.

    Nav: are you saying God isn't capable of writing up stories just to make fun of people like you?

    Are you sure?

    I thought in Genesis God created light, water and land.

    Then He created plants, then animals, the last created was man.

    According to evolution first came the lower order plants, then animals, the latest to evolve was man.

    Surely a Divine being could have loaded the dice from time to time?

    I disagree with this statement completely.

    Our Apostolic tradition is unbroken and directly linked to Peter, hence to Jesus himself.

    Holy Mother Church does not "represent" God or Jesus or the Spirit -- the almighty does not require such. It is an embodiment of that Spirit and a shared community of faith in the redemption given us through Christ's death and ressurection.

    At no point has the Church called the Word of God a lie, and re-affirms regularly its belief in the spiritual power of that Word.

    Ive honestly stopped caring
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Genesis is very open to interpretation, and gets the order of species evolving right as well as the beggining of the univiverse.

    Personnally i think god is clever and powerful enough to create the world and us through evolution, haveing created a universe that would bring about life on earth. he is after all omnipitant!

    Right... creationists believe all life was created by God, and ID theorists believe all life was created by some mysterious unnamed intelligence, possibly God if that's your fancy.

    ID is simply creationism using carefully chosen neutral science-y language. It's politically correct creationism.

    ID says that some biological systems are too complex to have evolved on their own, so they must have been designed. Unsurprisingly, they have yet to actually identify such a system. The ironic thing is that every time they think they have, all they have done is provide a target for future research which inevitably ends up discovering that the complexity is not so irreducible after all. In fact, the only way 'irreducible complexity' remains irreducible is if nobody researches it... which is exactly what ID theorists are shooting for. ID theory basically is asking scientists to run up the white flag, stop looking for answers in nature, and just accept a supernatural explanation. It's not science. In fact it's anti-science.

    How do you figure? You think our species was the most recent species to evolve?

    Not according to Creationists. Creating a world things work in was far too hard, so he cheated.

    Just to liven this one up again, looks like us backwoods yokels here in the US aren't the only ones dissing evolution.

    I would like to point out that a third of Britain fails their GCSEs, which is quite an impressive act when you it was recently pointed out that a pass (A to C grade) in English didn't actually mean you were functionarily literate.

    Which is probably why referendums don't happen here much.
