    Interestingly the two are not mutually exclusive if you take the bibal version to be our interpretation of Gods word. I mean how long is a day in Gods terms?

    Anyway - my vote goes to Evolution, but then I'm not a Christian

    Light travels faster than sound. Is this why some people appear bright until you hear them speak?

    Well one of the nicest theories to combine both is that God's days are 1 Billion years old, it took 6 billion years to make the earth etc and now god is resting, that explains why god isn't about as he's resting for another 999997996 years.

    Its amazing the amount of people don't have faith in anything they can't see with their own eyes, and its amazing how easy it is to decide the brain into seeing something its not.

    p.s you do need a both catergory as i can't vote for either..

    evolution...though when strolling down the high street its clear that the evolutionary curve of some people is definitely less steep...[monkeys etc.]

    Please, Don't ask for that one 'as a desktop'...its really not worth wasting your time asking, unless you're able to pay £££?

    As Tig says the Bible gives a quite accurate description of the evolution of the earth and life on earth as long as you dont take the time units literally.

    Evolution - as Darwin was a Brit (something we can put in the other thread ) but really, i dont see how the bible's way works.....surely we are all inbred? suppose that could account for disorders.

    Darwin's way seems far more valid.

    As the bible's version, when boiled down, consists of 'A big man in the sky with magic powers made everything', I'll believe anything else, before I believe that.

    In the time when the Bible was written i'm pretty sure people weren't scientists who know how life begins hence why they may have written that a being created us. I have different beliefs anyway, i can't decide either.
