You may see this as fun when someone mentions God.
You may laugh and point the finger.
But do you understand what i mean when i say God bless you???
I mean that may all things that are positive and all things that could never cause you harm be upon and may it be made so by the power.
i don't know how God was made, but who cause those atoms to collide?
you ask me the same question and i can fire it back in relevance to your belief.

Yes but to be developed is to be more evolved.
Let me tell you some facts about evolution.
Did you know that we resemble the same skin of pig more than a monkey???
and did you know that in the holy books (Quran and The Holy Bible) it says not to eat pork (yes in the Bible too).
did you know that the discovery of pigs skin was found more recently than not!!!!! so the holy books had that written for a reason which has only recently become known.
did you know that we share more of the same DNA with a pig than a monkey on the whole.
sorry but i dont want to get onto a religion vs evolution.
I can understand that we resemble monkeys so much its almost ludicrous to think otherwise, but in all honesty i know we are something more, we are something special, we are something created.
God's most grand design and i am proud to be!

Muslims and Jews do not eat pork of any type because the pig is considered an unclean animal. It's an omnivore, which means it can and will eat anything, and in the desert regions of the world, where these religions originated, the pigs ate whatever they could find, and it was often carrion, old rotting meat, even human remains ... so naturally pork wasn't considered safe for human consumption.

The ability to create, we are the only species on this planet that can create different architectural structures or homes.
how can someone who believes in god tell me about evolution ???

We build:
Homes
architectural structures
spaceships
computers
space stations
zoos
animal shelters etc......
everything that we can build shows our dominance on the (creation wize) on the evolutionary scale.
the point being is that no other species could do what we do.........EVER.
Apart from the one that built the universe. Now i ain't to big on the big bang theory because i dont understand how nothing can create something.
If you have no water in a glass and you slam the non-existant water particles together you get more water!!!!!!???!!!! WHAT??!!??!!
but yeah thats just me.
but my point is:
With evolution comes creation
who created the planets???!!?
An Architect would have had to.......
A Creator would have had to .........
God would have had to .........

What do you mean?
Collins is uniquely qualified to discuss the question: he is the former director of the Human Genome Project, which in 2003 finished mapping human DNA, and the current director of the National Institutes of Health. He is also a devout Christian who has coauthored the book, “The Language of God,” which argues that scientific knowledge and faith are not incompatible. Collins stressed that he was speaking at the conference as a private citizen, and not as a representative of the U.S. government.
Using his background in DNA research, Collins took to task Christians who deny the scientific evidence for evolution. The mapping of genomes for animals other than humans, Collins said, revealed “a remarkable documentation of Darwin's theory of common ancestry.” The most important animal genome to be mapped in terms of proving evolution was the chimpanzee, he said, which is 95 percent genetically identical to human beings.
Meanwhile, Collins questioned the literal explanation put forth in the Bible that Adam and Eve were the sole parents of the human race. Collins explained that the variation of human DNA allowed for 12 million potential differences between people.
“There is no way you can develop this level of variation between us from one or two ancestors,” Collins said.
Instead, Collins identified the most likely scenario of human origin as an ancestral pool of approximately 10,000 individuals in Africa who gave rise to the modern human race.
Like many scientists, Collins said he believes the universe was created 13.7 billion years ago. Unlike most scientists, Collins argued that God created the universe, bestowing it with evolution as the mechanism that would shape its eventual form. From evolution, man was gifted with free will, consciousness and morality. Thus man was made “in God's image,” Collins said.
Challenging scientists who say evolution disproves the existence of a higher being, Collins honed in on two points that he said atheistic scholars had yet to adequately answer. The first was humans' persistence in behaving altruistically, showing an unselfish regard for others.
but then that got me thinking, how is that purpose, that is materialism, the only reason that job exists is because someone created it, so how can that be my lives purpose.

You want to hear a really cool amazing fact? You're uneducated. In all honesty, those who think they are something special are called narcissists. They are a plague to this planet who think it's nonrenewable resources are theirs for the taking with little regard to how it affects all life on this planet and the environment in general. Previous responses in regards to pigs are correct, omnivorous diets of porcine made pigs unhealthy to eat nor are their DNA a close match to human DNA. We are a primate species who has lived alongside at least a dozen other primate species similar to our own, but because we adapted and had higher intelligence, we were able to survive the cataclysms that wiped out the other intelligent primate species we lived alongside with.
it is a thought that became a spark and not even in that order,

Well, I agree religion in and of itself suck. But I believe in God and I also don't think God needs a creator or has been created. Nor do I think God created God's self.
I also do not think this goes against the big Bang, which is something I believe occurred. That's just my standpoint on the issue.
