  • it's a starting point for progress when i see people who believe that god created evolution in nature, so i cannot get defensive. However, what I don't see the need to put the word "god" in sentences to complete them. They seem to me more like a "moral agent of reassurance (the agent being supernatural a entity)" rather than a term which further enhances ones message. As time goes on, our language SHOULD evolve as well as our concepts and theories.

  • It blows my mind that we share a significant percentage of genes with microscopic worms like c. elegans and that we share biological systems like metabolism.

  • Dr. Collins is 100% correct in this video, especially at 6:00.

  • 98.6% the same DNA as Chimps.

  • "intelligent design, creationism, and biblical stances/truths!!"

    These are all the same thing......religion.

  • btw that was sarcasm....and who cares if its 98 percent or 99....nobody cares

  • "..faith really should have no business in the human mind..."

    No, faith itself is important. I agree that blind faith / religious faith / beliefs that are contrary to evidence / etc. are dangerous, but the ability to make a decision when there isn't enough evidence available is important.

    It's just in situations when there is adequate evidence that faith becomes unnecessary and should be swapped out for reasoning.

  • The difference between monkeys and apes?

    Monkeys have tails, apes don't.

    There are other skeletal differences too.

    Humans are more closely related to apes.

    Oh, and it's 98% genetic similarity between humans and chimps.

    *shrugs*

  • i know....i dont get it sunday teacher who does not think God created the world.....creepy

  • ummmm whats the difference?
