I dont care whether Darwin was real or not. I was talking about the PROOF via the BONES... They didnt disappear when Darwin died.
I am not relying on history, I am relying on the carbon dating of the bones. And you can still do that today in experiments whether Darwin existed or not.
The theory of evolution has *EVOLVED* after Darwin's death. It was not simply enshrined in a book and called the truth...
Show me some evidence some PROOF that God exists or existed.
And I see the world and it's proof of science and evolution because it is made up of laws. You are basing your ideas upon faith. Essentially you are saying, because there are laws there must be god and that is where logic fails you.
I am not saying that there was not a creator. I am saying organized religion is a lie. I am saying the earth isnt 6000 years old (proven by science) and that dinosaur bones were not created by Satan to confuse believers.
Gravity is a law because everyone agrees that it exists. HOWEVER... There was a time where almost everybody believed the earth was flat and the center of the universe. WHOOPS!!! Fortunately... Science EVOLVED with our understanding to realize our true place in the universe. And it did that between the time of the supposed life of Jesus and now. And in that time all you still have is that dusty book that someone promises you is the truth.
So, maybe one day Science will evolve enough to explain why people feel the need to follow something even if it is an invisible being...
Maybe... Science will EVOLVE enough to tell us one day where our place is in the Creator's eye...
To see God you need to understand how God works. Its like saying show me proof of the wind.
You can't see it so we need another method of proving it's existance.
In the case of God the best evidence we have is his written word. But it's not just written it is the LIVING word.
That means that there are things in the bible that will actually HAPPEN.
This is called prophecy. This is the best proof I can give of God.
Now a second proof of God is a divine proof. This is proof in your heart. But to recieve this proof you must be willing to subject your self to reading and praying. This is proof saved only for those who "hear the word and allow it to take root in their heart and see the fruit of the Word of God, by repenting and living by it's teachings. (and in most cases joining a church) This is the MOST convincing proof of God, because when you change your life God can then bless you.
But since you have no desire to take the SECOND rought I will concentrate on the first. Proof by living revelation.
Any self respected hisorian will admite Jesus is real. No question there.
So we will skip the bullshit and get to the point: why you don't want to believe
Most people reject the scriptures for three reasons:
1. Ignorance - Romans 1:18 or Matthew 22:29
2. Pride - John 5:40
3. Moral problems - John 3:19, 20
18For the
wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men,
who hold the truth in
unrighteousness;
19Because that which may be known of God is manifest
in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20For the
invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his
eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were
thankful; but became
vain in their imaginations, and their
foolish heart was
darkened.
22Professing themselves to be
wise, they became fools,
23And changed the glory of the
uncorruptible God into an
image made like to
corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24Wherefore God also
gave them up to
uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26For this cause God
gave them up unto
vile affections: for even their
women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their
lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28And even as they did not like to
retain God in their knowledge, God
gave them over to a
reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication,
wickedness, covetousness,
maliciousness; full of envy, murder,
debate,
deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30a
Backbiters, haters of God,
despiteful,
proud,
boasters, inventors of evil things,
disobedient to parents,
31Without
understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of
death, not only do the same, but
have pleasure in them that do them.
Yes, Christianity takes work. It has boundries, there are limits. But with in those limits the possibilities are endless because beyond the limits is self destruction.
The Bible is the greatist tool we will ever have to liberate our selves to unlimited potential, because it takes away all the stumbling blocks that will limit our potential to be what God entended us to be.
When we get past all the evils of our heart, we liberate our self from those self defeating things.
