some of you may or may not know that i am a religious person.  so, i saw a sign while driving today at a church about the discussion of this topic.  thought i might write about it.  most may not want to read it, but maybe it will provide some insight to others on my views.  this will leave further discussion open(in my opinion about fates and other religions and such).  but, i will try not to go into that.

there are always debates on evolution and creation.  many believe that we were created by God.  others believe that we evoloved from single celled organisms.  i would like to share with you about my view on this. 

firstly, i believe heavily that both happened.  i believe that we evolved from a lower form of organism.  i also believe that we created by God.  could be confusing to think this way, but i kinda had an epiphany today.

creation by God took 6 days to complete.  we all know the first part of the bible.  He created the animals.  then He created man.  evolution states that we evolved slowly through millions of years to be where we are today.  now, i will try to combine those two. 

in the begining, God created light and dark... heaven and earth.. water, plants, animals.  then God created man.  we all know this.  also have heard about darwin.  we all know how scientist have shown how worlds were put together.  lets just think for a second, and put these two together.  most people think when they read about how creation took 6 days, they take it He took an actually six days.  we have no way of knowing how long it actually took.  how can we say that His day was not millions or billions of years?  how can we know that the plants and animals that He created were not the plants we see today, but tall ferns and enormous trees.  how are we to know that the animals that were created were not the ones today, but dinasours?

this is all just speculation, yes, but, im trying to shed light into this.  most scientist will say, that the more they study in their field, the more they believe in God.  what if, He created the dinasours first.  what if they roamed those millions on that one "day".  meanwhile, evolution is going on.  with us in mind.  what if, just a couple years ago, it was the next day, and He created man.  now, most will say that we appeared out of nothing, dirt from the earth.  but, if you think about it, where did most living things"evolve" from?  components of the earth.  what if He gently guided that first primate to stand up, being to walk upright, to begin the long road to His idea?  whose to say that we are his final idea? 

i just want to say again, that i believe in both, im trying to intregrate the two.  most will say you cant, but i believe that you can.  i could go on longer, but a blog is supposed to be kinda short, so, if anyone would like more thoughts on this, let me know, and i love to share what insights i have.
