the big bang theory could mean something else. lol

You are very ignorant on the subject. If America was intersted in Israel only because of religion, they would just annex the land and make Israel a christian controlled country, like crusaders did,instead of just aiding the jews. Also Israel and US showed that they want compromise more than palestinian side

Isn't this the answer to your question?

@thranx

The Webster definition of the scientific theory is simply inadequate, that provided on the Wikipedia is far more accurate and comprehensive. I encourage you to read the articles that I provided, they really can help clarify things a lot more than reading opinions posted on any forum. I apologize for being condescending but it bothers me when people use such a simplistic definition of the scientific theory and simply reiterate the same point repeatedly.

But this waaay more complex being which created the universe, didn't need a creator... Hmm, no, doesn't really make sense!

Are you ignoring this post?

I am a Christian and went to Catholic school. There I was taught all about evolution and the Big Bang. I am left to wonder why some atheists think that Christians reject science on principle, but then again there are still some Americans who think I live in an igloo just because I'm Canadian.

People fear anything that challenges their faith.

I for one, am a Christian who believes in science. Big bang? check. Evolution? check. Global warming? check.

I don't take every story in the Old Testament as literal truth. Jesus told many parables, I see the creation story along those lines. Thousands of years ago, there's no way big bang or evolution would fly (as scientific observations were limited by cultural and technological development), so we had creation stories. It's that simple.

Sadly, many people cannot reconcile what they've been told is the truth, with the reality we are presented with. They form an alternate reality for themselves, coming up with explanations and rationalizations for their reality, much like conspiracy theorists. If they would learn to think for themselves, and not blindly believe what people have told them for years, they could see the world for what it is -- and faith and religion most certainly do have a place in this world. There's no reason one can't be a devout Christian and believe in the findings of science.

I see science, and the universe, with all its mysteries and secrets, as a great gift to man. Rather than shun this gift, we should embrace it and enjoy it. The universe is a fascinating and amazing place, nobody should let archaic ideas from centuries long past ruin that.

I didn't call you ignorant to insult you, it simply means lacking knowledge, Sorry. I'm ignorant about British politics, I'm not insulting myself, just saying I don't know much about British politics. You are ignorant about evolution, bloody accept it and stop making false claims about the theory or educate yourself about it before making those claims. "I have never seen proof that this actually happened" -  Well first of all, there's no scientific evidence of a deity existing, so it's quite contradictory that you reject macro-evolution based on lack of evidence (which there isn't) and secondly, here's plenty of evidence for macro-evolution: http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/comdesc/

"Evolution is a religion as much as bible based religion is" xD 

I don't care if you think the universe has a "super intelligent scientific mind" behind it, that's off-topic and I didn't protest that belief.

Huh? I'm trying to discuss it. I told some guy he seems ignorant on this topic, he took it badly, he got argumentative. I didn't mean to be insulting. What's the problem?
