I wasn't accusing you, or anyone else in particular. I was just making a point.

God and science are not in conflict. People are in conflict with God.

The same goes for Christians and the bible.

So according to the videos I provided, the issue is not taking the text in Genesis literally enough.

Somewhat of a different position that what you usually see.

Of course they are. Nobody knows what actually happened, but to say that an all knowing God would not know how an expanding universe would look like upon creation is ludicrous.

God knew about how everything would exactly be and created a perfect universe based on the natural laws he put in place. It is entirely possible, given an all knowing and all powerful God exists.

Christians have God's Word as their final authority.

Atheists have only each other to believe, and their lying science.

Can you imagine how many millions of people around the world in the last one hundred and fifty years have turned away from the Bible and faith in God because of the promotion of the science of evolution?

If Christians would have stood up and taught their children, instead of having society teach their children, it would not have happened.

Faulty assumptions go unchecked. Unobserved theories were allowed to be considered truth.

It came through the courts. Politically appointed jusges put in place to undermine Christianity.

Once you convince people nothing is absolute true, you can get them to believe anything.

The ruling class does not want a strong self reliant class to dominate the masses becauae they can't contol such people.

I'd say this is true for many who are classified Christians in this world.

I disagree with you there, but I am sure you will find out if you are right before I find out.
