If that is true, then why do 4 in every 10 scientist believe in a 'God'?
Science cannot provide all the answers Mr.madness.
Evolution does not explain how we got here, how the universe came from nothingness, etc.
At the same time, creationism does not explain how God became God. For instance, who made God? Did he come from nothingness?
Alot of questions, with not many answers im afraid.
I myself, tend to lean more towards the creationist side. I base this belief off of the human body. The human body is just to complicated, as is all life on earth.
It seems to me, that something (God) knew what they were doing.
evolution is just a theory

scuse my ignorance but, how do you tell when a gene is "ex-functional"
which would be that.... there's no possibility of this mutation occurring independently? Make the gene became ex-functional become of some kind of environmental change that impacted both simultaneously. Is that possible?

Yes, there is a god. and what if I was to ask you in a poll if you believe in GOD? I am sure 90% of you guys would say you belive in god right?
So based on my research and this poll, I could say that god exists..That is if you belive in polls..and some polls are very true to reality and need no proof. I've learned that over the years, when people have a strong belief on something, it's usually true or has some basis for being true.

You claim evolution, well show me the missing link, if you do not have it then
why shouldn't I go with the Sumerian text that shows we came from ETs?
The truth is it is not a good theory, it still does not explain where the materials came from when there was nothing.
All it says was "big star big bang! We are here now! end of discussion."

Look around you. Why do you think there's difference races of humans? Why they look different to each other. This is the process of work over millions of years.

It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.

If the universe had a beginning, who created it?
Why are the physical constants in the universe so finely tuned to allow the possibility of complex life forms to exist?
Why do we humans have a moral sense?
What happens after we die?
But how are you so sure of your own theory? Do you ever stop and question it? How about "What if"?

If they weren't we wouldn't be here to ask this question in the first place, so that's no argument. Of all the universes possible it just happened to be this one.
Some species of monkeys and all apes have a moral sense.
Nothing. Why, do you expect something to happen? Do you think humans are special enough to deserve to live on??
What's the point?
In over 2 000 years since man came up with the god meme there has not been one single piece of evidence that shows that there is a god.
