Guys, genetic similarity might mean similar ancestor, or it could bean a similar creator. Try to look at it from my view.

If there WAS a creator god, I wonder why he made apes and monkeys so similar in apperance to the humans he created 'in his own image'. No offence or anything, it just occured to me.

So genetic disparity breeds then different creators? What are you implying? That up there is a reptile god, an amphibian god, a mammal god...? Your position grows more and more ludicrous with every reply.

If God created man in his image, then why has that image changed? Over the past hundred years people have begun to phase out four teeth, contracted our skulls, and grown on average shorter then our ancestors, and yet, people still turn the other way and say that He made us perfect.

It is willfull ignorance, and nothing more.

Dolash, perhaps he just likes this body shape?

Ahnk, look at the world around you. You can tell who painted a great piece of art by the style it is painted in. You can look at a graphic sig, and usually tell if Ren, Vega, or Myself created it. We all have different styles. I could go create an animation, and it would still have my style. I have colors I favor. I have effects I like to reuse. I like a certain shape. God has a style all his own, and some animals are similar. I don't know why, that's just how it is. I'm not saying that there are multiple gods, I'm saying that one God created everything, and some things are similar because they were all created by the same being. I'm positive most of the really similar animals come from breeding (see dogs, horses), but I'm also positive God created them all in the beginning.

The image of man has changed because of sin. After Adam and Eve sinned and left the garden, death entered the world. The world was no longer perfect, and it began to degenerate. The original model was perfect, but each subsequent model is a reproduction of a reproduction. Make a photocopy. Photocopy the photocopy. Do it again. And again. And again. Sooner or later the copy warm from the machine looks like naught but a faint image of the crisp original.

Okay, Kas, I'm looking at from your point of view... but all I see is a bunch of BS.

Yes, I see the beauty of a summers morning from the top of a building, the hues of the suns grace against the clouds and sky as the brilliance of creation dawns on me.

Then I go down to the buildings basement to watch some guy sodomize another guy with an ice pick whilst another man chokes him to death as he gets felatio preformed on him...


Yes, I recognize gods artwork all over... right

If God had created people without the ability to choose whether or not to choose right from wrong, he would have created robots. I don't think he wanted robot followers.

"god" can do anything and is not constrained by the limits your human logic or the logic of this universe, which he supposedly created.he is superior to not subordinate to the laws of cause and effect taht your argument is based upon

which i've said before but with better grammar and shit

Thanks for summarizing that. People change because of sin. So evolution is a sin.

Much easier to have just said that, and you could just skip straight from there to "I know you are but what am I?" and ignore any rational arguements or evidence.
