Evolution? How?

I think it is more than a coincidence that the earth is so perfect to suit life...

Was the earth made for life or was life made for the earth or is the earth just an extension of life.

To say that conditions here on Earth are perfect for life ignores the basic fact that the Earth is in a state of violent and ever-changing flux. Presumably there was a time when the Earth was not perfect for life, and those inhospitable conditions will probably arise again.

There is a problem with the statement, "...the earth is so perfect to suit life." If it weren't so perfect, then we wouldn't be here to comment. Since we are (obviously) here, then of course it seems perfect. As soon as it is not perfect again, we will perish, and once again the question will be irrelevant.

Just put the DVD of Earth on super-fast-forward...

Violence as the world is being formed, hot lava everywhere. Water begins to appear. Billions of years of organisms scrambling for scarce food and resources. Asteroids hit, glaciers advance, mass extinctions occur. Then humans appear. Slow down the tape just in time to hear the word: "perfect." Speed up again. Nuclear apocalypse, glaciation, mass extinction, Earth is swallowed up by sun.

That was a lot more fun than I expected.

Once again, Jesus, i'm not your son--as i pointed out, i am old enough to be your father, although if that were true, i'd never admit it. You say that i am a "fanatic" of a certain kind, which you do not specify. The irony is immense, and your contention about immaturity and emotional "thinking" far more applicable to you than to anyone else here. I have not the least doubt that you will continue your search for martyrdom and apotheosis as a messiah, but it has been entertaining.

Quote, "Ever thouight that maybe God set evolution in motion?" Not according to the bible. The bible sets the earth's age at about 6,000 years.

actually rex, bible scholars have set the age by interpreting ages of the patriarchs and all their begattin

What is so interesting about these bible-thumpers is the simple fact that they don't know the bible at all. LOL They think their meanderings that apposes bible scholars and theologians mean something.

"Mark 10:6 But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female."

But, ofcoarse! "Mark 10:6 But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female."

Do you understand logic? Well, give this one a try. Say that Adam and Eve were the first perfect, unsinful, couple, and they bore children. Their children bore more children without any deaths on this planet. Do you have any understanding of logistics? Without sin, humans continued to reproduce. What's the problem with this picture? Oh, my gosh! That's true with all animals on this planet too! The first male and female of their specieis must have sinned too~!

Quote, "When there is more than one "creation" then there is more than one "beginning"...

If you remember God did not "create" Adam and Eve but he "formed" them from the dust of the ground... This means the earth was "created" before. The earth had a different beginning... "

Please provide bible chapter and verse to support your claims.

In Starbux. Battery running low. If you were told to fill my latte cup, would you fillit to overflowing or just until it was full[/I? Adam and Eve were told to fill the earth.[/quote]

Actually one must read the Bible again...

God did not tell Adam and Eve to fill the earth he told them, to "re-fill" the earth...

Ge 1:28
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Comment:
You cannot replenish the earth if it has not been filled once before...
