  1. Certainly not!

    Only the dumb ones!


  2. I believe in evolution, actually the roman catholic church supports evolution.

  3. No, they don't.  I know my own church pastor does believe the theory of evolution.  I also have two very devout people in my department at the high school where I teach.  I think it is a matter of being a scientist and having to figure out where religion fits around it.  They say that God created the world and life and then evolution took over.

  4. no, not all Christians dismiss the theory of evolution.  i and my social circles, however, do dismiss it.  that's just my opinion, and i don't bash those who agree with evolution.  we're all entitled to our own opinions, right?  for your second question, i studied this at an apologetics library, and there are countless facts to dispute evolution.  i'd have to say...study both sides of it and come to your own conclusion...be open-minded and soak in both points of view...that's what i did.

  5. No. I'm a Christian and I believe in evolution. I believe God created the universe and evolution took over from there.

    Some Christians believe that God created Adam and Eve and we all came from them. I have to ask those people, If God created two people and we all come from those two people, then why is the human race so diverse?

  6. Actually, Pop John Paul II welcomed the theory. I consider myself someone who lives by Christian morals and I support the theory also.

  7. They believe, but not as the creation of man rather just that man can better himself give circumstances.

  8. I'm a christian and I believe in evolution. It's incredibly wrong and statistically inaccurate to state that ALL Christians do not believe in evolution

  9. i'm a christian...but i also subscribe to the theory of evolution...i know lots of people like me...we're smart, educated but we haven't dismissed our spiritual side. i just feel that you can't take the bible so literally...it was after all written by people....not god...i see it as a moral guideline...not the answers to all life's questions.

  10. I think evolution is not really science fact but it is only a myth or fairy tails  by Charles Darwin. Science nowadays have proves that evolution is only a c**p,false and nonsense.

    Between early 2001 and the present day there have been a number of very interesting and important developments in the world of science. The advances made in such different scientific fields as palaeontology, molecular biology, anatomy and genetics have once again revealed the terrible scientific dilemma the theory of evolution finds itself in. The theory of evolution was proposed in its present form in the mid-19th century by Charles Darwin and at that time provided enormous support for materialism. Such was that support that the present collapse of the theory is also resulting in the collapse of materialism itself. Materialism is a most dangerous philosophy, which denies the existence of God, religion and the spiritual life and which regards matter as the only absolute and supports a selfish world view. The selfish, self-interested, combative and ruthless moral view which is still widespread in the world is the product of a materialist-Darwinist viewpoint.

  11. yes they do. they can not accept that human is the evolution of apes. somehow by accepting the evolution theory they devalue god.

  12. Those of us who PAID attention in science class generally dont dismiss evidence. I think a lot of Christians believe in evolution as a PROCESS of CHANGE and that the Divine while being far more than an "Intelligent Designer" probably gives the process an occassional tweak and twist and push?

  13. no - my family has no problem with evolution and creation both - I mean something had to be created for us to evolve FROM in the first place, didn't it?  And if God created the world all at once, why not use the "Big Boom" to do it?  and all the stuff in Genesis about 7 days, remember what it says in the bible about time and God?  His "day" may be millions of our "years" - so what's the problem with both?

  14. No, all Christians don't dismiss the "theory". It is  It is very annoying when certain fundamentalist types define Christianity as opposed to "Darwin's evolution" as if it the idea of one man and actually disputed.  It isn't by any rational scientific standard.

  15. As far as I know there are two main approaches to the theory of evolution in Christianity.

    One view is known as theistic evolution. That is, there was

    evolution but God is the cause of it.

    The other main view is that there is evolution (change) within species, such as, the many breeds of dogs, etc. However, there is not Evolution where one species changes to another. For example, horses and donkeys can create mules, but mules cannot reproduce. Therefore, it is not a species.

    God's word makes it clear that each species of living thing creates after its kind.
