Since we're talking about creationism, why not have a thread purely on evolution. I just want to know your opinion on evolution. If you do not accept evolution, post why you don't and some questions you might want answered about evolution.

Do we really need another thread on this topic?

I believe God caused the Big Bang and everything according to science happened based on scientific theories hypothesized by the minds of our time.

Simple enough for you?

There is so much evidence based science behind the Big Bang and Evolution that to argue against them makes one look foolish, and one can become much more foolish if they instead promote mythology.

Evolution is a lie. It is a racist theory and there is absolutely no evidence to support it whatsoever... In other news, the doctor said I've contracted MRSA, which sucks ass.

Microevolution is something I can get behind. Macro on the other hand, not so much. ^_^

But they're exactly the same mechanism, it's just the scale that's different.

An analogy would be walking around your house and walking to Mexico. One is shorter than the other, but it's exactly the same mechanism. If you work out the total distance of all your walks around your house in your lifetime, then you will find that you would have covered the same distance as a walk to Mexico (and presumably more).

Micro evolutions are only small, but they do accumulate. And if you take into account all the micro evolutions that have occurred since the Cambrian explosion ~530 million years ago, then that has given plenty of time for micro evolutions to accumulate and become macro evolutions.

And there is plenty of evidence to show that life has been around for billions of years, and complex life for hundreds of millions of years.

In short, if you accept the fact that life has been around billions of years and you also accept that life micro evolves, you have to accept macro evolution.

I find the Macro/micro evolution argument often given by creationists to be a fallacy, purposely promoted by the likes of Kent Hovind and Answers in Genesis.

I thought that by saying I don't accept macroevolution that it also implies that I don't accept that life has been around for a billion years.

After spending alot of time thinking about it I completely believe in evolution. In my opinion there are too many  flaws in the human design to have been created by an allknowing being

Well Macroevolution is because speciation(changes in between species), which scientists have observed numerous times. The main question for creationists is whether or not they accept an old age earth or a young earth. Is your religion the reason why you don't accept the old age earth model or is it something observable in nature that makes you question it? If it's religious issues, then I cannot talk much since there would be no point since there would be bias involved, but if it's something in nature that makes you question the old earth model, ask me and I will try my best to answer.
