What's Natural?
It ought to be printed out and framed.

Thank you. At the risk of tarnishing my perfection, if tribute is
offered, I tend to accept. I have a science fiction theory on that.
Once upon a time, in a galaxy far far away.... Um... Let's skip that
part. Humans as we know them evolved... but not as the normal theories
think. Man was transplanted on Earth by a supreme race. Probably due
to some disaster that was happening on the origin world and most
likely in

How about hmmmm then? I did pick up AHhhh and am trying to quit.
What ways?
There ya go. What I am driving at Howie is I for one would rather
read your Opinions. 'Aha, Hmmm and Indeed' indicate you may have an
opinion but don't dare express it. Can we please have some opinions?
Feel free. Don't be afraid. Just honest.

We do make 'gods' in our own image after all.
Theory snipped for brevity. Not a unfamiliar theory, Frank. And plausible than any of the dozen
or so Creation theories toted by their respective believers, without
verifiable evidence as "fact'.
I've always admired the ways of the North American Native Indians and
other peoples who respected (note past tense) their environs, never
taking more than they needed etc. Worship aside- they found harmony
with nature. They fit in with
What's Natural?
In my humble opinion, this theory is supported by more "facts" that
others. Many cultures have "bibles" (holy works or whatever) that tell
the history (however convoluted) of their race, belief and such. Most
seem to have similar plots and stories. Few can stand on the
evolution, big bang and other theories.
Many texts teach this. History, to the comic book. It's amazing that
people still don't follow.
Possible.

Yeah they all do and they all claim to be the only right one. It
would be hysterical if such claims over petty differences in opinion
were ot the leading cause of wars.
Strip all the fanciful creation stories down to their bones. One
common truth is undeniably evident: humans are very creative critters...
It's easier not to. Until there's money in it.
I like this theory! A ring of truth to it.

Not many at all survived.
I knew ahead of time that much of the movie was not factual
when it came to Schindler. But, it was a relatively
short movie that could not show all of Schindler's warts.
To see what Schindler meant to his Jews, do remember the
very last, post war seen. That's the one after Schindler's
death and his burial with honors in Israel. Those people
were not actors. They were actual Schindler Jews and
their descendants.

Of course. Just as anyone could. But they didn't because they didn't know
where to look. I did, because, unlike them, I have actually read the Bible.
By the way, anyone who read the Bible can remember that place about "jot
and tittle" without having

Evidence
So, is there evidence that there is evidence for God's existence or not?
"Red Tent"
So, you don't believe in the Bible but do believe in the holocaust? Hypocrite.

Much more than Schindler's thousand. And way much more fled Germany before
and shortly after Hitler become a reichchancellor.
Short? Dan, it is four hours long! The only reason Schindler was idealized
is Spielberg's desire to make another movie about Jewish suffering and Nazi
oppression and you can't insert a negative hero in a movie like that.
They had their reason Schindler saved them/their parents. It is their
right to have Schindler as their hero. But I prefer

Too bad they didn't choose better men to fashion him after. Or maybe
that's a good thing, as even more people might want to believe then.

I can see one way in which both evolution and creation have an advantage
over it though. And that is that it fails to explain the remarkable
similarities between all known living things. And more importantly,
predicts that some species, or groups of species, should be profoundly
dissimilar, because they share no common origin.
Evolution and creation both offer plausible explanations for this. With
evolution, the similarities are the natural product of having evolved
from a common ancestor. With creation,

Not a unfamiliar theory, Frank. And far more [edit] plausible than

You've noticed that too!? This gladdens my heart! (I'm being a little
sarcastic). Most folks only see differences thus conclude there is no
common ground but 'god'.
Sure. Given the 'right' conditions the forces of nature evolved the

The men who created gods, did the choosing. Everybody is capable of
creating their own 'god or goddess'; fetish... whatever. Crutches all.
A pesky thing. This co-dependance trait. Like an appendix. It becomes
inflamed by those struggling to grow out of it.
