    Because they have been indoctrinated by the extremist sects and cults to believe that God was not clever enough to use the big bang, evolution and science as his tools!

    What lies are you talking about? Are you saying evolution is a lie or what they teach in christianity is a lie?

    Evolution is not a part of our creed. It is a scientific theory that was put forth by Darwin in the 1800s. Nearly 2000 years after Christianity began. Most of us don't deny the possibility of evolution though.It just isn't an article of our faith. Are you all aware that the big bang theory" was actually put forth by a Catholic professor, working at a Catholic university? It was not an atheist's theory.

    Friend you can prove evolution to me by going and getting all the parts of a Rolex watch put them in a cardboard box and shake them around and shake them around until you have a Rolex watch when the Rolex watch assembles itself inside the cardboard box after you keep shaking it come and tell me about evolution.

    Because that is exactly what you were claiming when you tell me about evolution.  The human DNA strand is 100 million times more intricate than a Rolex watch.

    You want people to believe that with all the scientists in the world that have tried everything possible to create one viable living cell and can't do it that something is intricate as DNA assembled itself all by itself sorry horse ssshhhiii-------

    Because we know it is not true.  There was no big bang theory.  How do we know that?  Some planets are older than others.  They would all be the same age.  We did not evolution we adapted to our enviroment.  So now they pretty much know it is not true.  But old habits are hard to break.  Teachers are told to teach that so they do even if they do not believe it.  Now most believe in aliens or someone from another planet put us here.

    For the same reason it doesn't teach plumbing.

    Because nobody has proved that atheistic evolution is the reason for the diversity of life this planet has known.  Nobody can prove that God didn't guide evolution to his own ends.

    The fact remains that every single imperfect system that is not maintained degrades and fails with time.  Life is no exception, so let's hear no special pleading for it.  Half of all mutations are fatal.  49% are debilitating.  Only one percent of all mutations are even weakly beneficial.  If you insist on evolutioin,you logically have to admit God.

    Christianity is inflexible when it comes to wanting 

    God to have "created" everything, instead of 

    allowing everything to take place as it will. 

     

    Only an imperfect god would have to

    sit back and "plan" anything at all, no less what

    Christians allow themselves to suppose that he has to.

    God's Plan = Give Existence Life. 

     

    Christianity doesn't matter.

    There's no reason for Christianity to teach evolution.  That's the purview of science.
