I do not believe in "organized religion".
I believe that God created EVERYTHING... and therefore God created evolution. God created people, but people wrote the various "bibles" (not God).
God's animals and plants evolved because God wanted them to evolve, it's all part of the divine plan. Scientists are scientifically explaining the cycle of nature, which God created.
The people who only believe in evolution fail to understand that God is a "holy spirit" and is completely independent of "the physical universe" which God created all of.
For instance, I ask people who believe in the "Big Bang" theory, "So how did the physical particles, gases, dust, or whatever, get there to cause the Big Bang in the first place?" In Science, physical matter can not come from nothing. There is an infinite intelligence (holy spirit) which is beyond all of the particles and cosmic dust. God designed the protons, electrons, quarks, gluons, and the forces which hold them all together. Some bibles mention humans were created from "the dust". So even if the "dust" was from the ground, the earth is a planet which was formed from the cosmos, so all "dust" is "cosmic dust", any way you look at it.
Then they ask me "Well, then who created God?" The answer is, God did not need to be created because God is an infinite spirit, that has always been and will always be. God is independent of all space and time. God is eternal and omnipresent.
Humans, on the other hand, have finite minds, we had a "beginning" when we were physically born, and we will have an "ending" when we physically die, except for our non-physical "spirit" which will live on. It's difficult for humans with finite minds to grasp the concept of INFINITY.
Our brief life time last but the blink of an eye, then our physical body turns back into cosmic dust, and all that will remain are our spirits.
It not wise to believe in books written by stone-age middle eastern men. According to some Christians the "OLD" testament pertains "only to that time period" - OK so then it belong in a museum, not a church.
God created people, but people wrote the bibles. Bibles is plural because there are more than 1 of them. There are several different bibles and they say different things. Bibles have been changed by various kings (or other organized religious organizations) over the past several thousand years, so the original message is further distorted.
The original messages were "LOVE thy neighbor" and "Judge Not and Ye Shall Not Be Judged", but many so-called religious people won't even acknowledge those passages and instead try to spread HATE. That is terribly wrong, twisted, and sometimes actually out-right evil.
Organized religion seems to be something invented to take peoples money. It also is the cause of many wars. Better to listen directly to God in your own mind through prayer.
