This is just too funny for I have long believed that bacteria was of more use to humans than any concept of gods and godesses.
In monotheistic religion, a new way of thinking was here.. that Gods were not to be worshiped. Then we would no longer fight over them because we
would call them angels and worship their creator. This great creator is a great power, yet we can't perceive it without help. God is slow powerful
and abrupt. The father that Jesus talked about isn't God but one of the bridges to this power and a fallen angel has no such connection. It's Gods
son and called the son of man. It's mind is much like that of a child and yet one finds it's cells in dirt and sleeping in the brains of billions.
The immortal Christ that never dies is many minds and one is the lamb of God and another is the lion that dwells in man. You can see it in Egypt and
across the Atlantic. A manager of food webs and evolver of animals, yet it's said that what an animals is to be is decided in advance and then the
animal is built from an existing animal. It is both created and evolved. Listen to the words of Jesus and you will understand what was talking.
God built cells and thus all life is modeled in his image. One sees this best when one sees many acting as one.
Why do you say "I am"? you are trillions of "I am's" yet you say I am one.
what of ants that all act like one as no ant is in charge of another. There are microbes involved in the ant's collective "I am". Look up
walbachia and see that new insects are evolved from dirt. Complete with virgin births and all. With a different "I am" in all.
It is the ego of man that prevents those text's from making sense and it's that same ego that celebrates the death of profits more then their
life.
Did man started out with mitochondria? look at the works and see that all animals have them. Mitochondria are in the cells of all animals and
required for animal life. The lion laid down with the lamb, as the predator of mitochondria became it's protector and modern cell was possible.
Mitochondria are like sheep that live in the belly of a lion.
What would a man that spent his entire life in a window less room know about the sun? Even if he had a book that spoke of the sun he would imagine it
not. When one looks at observation or data and it doesn't fit what you believe to be true. It's not the observations or data with the flaw. It's
the man with the flaw.
It's both Evolution and Creation. There is both vertical gene transfer and horizontal gene transfer. There is an intelligence in the design and
there was an intelligence before life.
Abram was not 9 months old at birth for he had the seed and was older then his years.
Now I think some miss the complexity of cells. You have trillions
