    I think you are from the UK, but some of the US's greatest scientists throughout history believed in a God. Such as Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison, etc.. You will also find that many who start to study the complexity of science convert to that belief. As many that do believe there is equally as many that don't believe. It is never ending.

    I find it humorous that someone can believe that aliens planted humans as some project, yet think that a belief in a God is silly.

    Either way Flagg, we have been down this road before and I think you are a pretty intelligent man, I just think that we will disagree on this subject.

    Yeah you're right, I was probably a little harsh to call MS ignorant and I appologise to MS about that. Religion I have to admit gets my blood boiling from time to time and I didn't take the time to fully read into what he said about Intelligent Design, which of course is feasible, so again I appologise to MS for not reading!

    And you're right, this is a debate without ending. Maybe in a thousand years time they'd be answers, but none of us will be here then so I guess we'll have to content ourselves on what we consider right and wrong.

    I would argue that due to the nature of the times, people were more religious then...Darwin, even though he was considered a heretic, believed in a Christian version of God.

    Haha, its not me that personally believes in Alien Intervention, it was a nod towards what BJJ believes in.

    How is that any more crazy that the other idea and also what about people like me who believe in Alien intervention, Evolution/adaptation and God all at the same time?

    I think there is room for all of it. Who says God only created us? I love getting into that argument with my mom (very religious) Every time she say NO he only created us because he son only died for our sins I say Ohh so you are putting limitations on what God can do? hehehehehe

    You mom needs a gift from you:

    "The Book Your Church Doesn't Want You to Read"

    In many fields debatable, but surely speaks the truth about religions.

    No she is way beyond that. At least she is not a huge bible thumper and it's all she talks about but she is firm in her believe and that's fine, she is 85 and not hurting anyone with it and it's not like it's a cult or black magic or anything. Now if it was black magic it would be more fun though. LOL

    My mom would NEVER read a book like that, when it comes to religion she is very closed minded like most people. They can not find room for any other explanations and think if someone does not believe exactly like them they are going straight to hell. LOL

    OBVIOUSLY I was raised in a Christian home, went to church 3x - 4x a week. I even use to play the piano for one of our church's, even though I sucked. LOL I remember even at age 5 or 6 I realized most of the people where hypocrites although I didnt know the proper term and although I understood and believed a lot of what was taught I though there was more to it than what they said and didnt believe one book had all the answers.

    Because there is more evidence to support the theory of evolution than there is for Creationism or Alien Intervention, like it or not.
