Thanks Christopher. And yes, Romans 1 tells us that they are willfully ignorant. This isn't to say that they are not extremely smart people often or that the theory is not well developed, but they are ignorant and wrong simply. Thing is, both sides of this important arguments makes good sounding arguments and can sound correct. So, both sides approach with a prior ideology. However, Christians admit their prior view in interpreting facts, evolutionists pretend that the facts told them. Yeah, as if those fossils came with dates.I think you'll appreciate this Richard lewontin quote that he admitted. ‘Our willingness to accept scientific claims that are against common sense is the key to an understanding of the real struggle between science and the supernatural. We take the side of science in spite of the patent absurdity of some of its constructs, in spite of its failure to fulfill many of its extravagant promises of health and life, in spite of the tolerance of the scientific community for unsubstantiated just-so stories, because we have a prior commitment, a commitment to materialism.
It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow compel us to accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but, on the contrary, that we are forced by our a pri |

That would be question number 637 on the list Christopher. Not quite sure how many numbers are on the list, but it's a bunch.
It is extremely sad how much they have to distort the facts to make evolution look true.
What's sadder is that this theory of Darwin's gave rise to eugenics, Margaret Sanger and planned parenthood, Karl Marx, hitler, Pol Pot, communist china (Mao), and Stalin. (To name a few).
That's about a quarter of a billion or more people killed in the 20th century alone because people believe man came from apes and pigs.
(Not what the scientific theory states explicitly, but the theory eliminates absolute morality, which these dictators believed and swayed ppl to believe their moral opinions, hence genocide) |

No commands, but trust and trustworthiness are biblical and desirous qualities. A handshake and a promise to repay a debt means nothing now a days. According to a more elderly friend of mine, he bought a car on a handshake saying that he would repay.Personally, if we can't trust the sinless Savior then why would we trust deceitful man prone to sin. (Specifically lying in regards to trust.). Of course, I won't pretend that seeing people doesn't help a lot far as trusting them. Partially why trusting God is hard sometimes is because we are such visible people. Besides, if we didn't cons from God, and really evolved as the majority of people are being taught (dogmatically I might add,) then there is no reason to true people who are finally realizing that if they don't have to answer to a creator, then they can do what most benefits them. Basically, catching up to the hitker, Mao Zedong, and Stalin trains of thought on a national level and much smaller extent. |

Let me add a few details to the situation. I don't intend this to brag on me, but as a listing of credentials, and mostly bragging on God. God has blessed me in my schoolwork, so I'm graduating as valedictorian of my class in may. (And he's gonna get thanked for it too, among some other things.). I have a 31 on my ACT which means Mississippi will pay 13,000 dollars over 4 years. Now, the college I think I'm going to attend is a smallish Christian college with southern baptist heritage. It is William Carey university. Now at Carey, I qualify for 30 hours tuition for 2 years and 33 hours for the next 2. Plus a 1700 dollar room waiver and study abroad and other benefits. Oh, and as a presidential scholar you get/have to do four hours of service a week which is cool I think. So I don't think debt will be a problem.
Not to sound idolatrous of money, but that is an awesome opportunity.
Moreover than just a higher education, there are some things that will surely be invaluable. I will have to learn better money and time management. With a large percentage of Carey being women, I may very well happen to find a wife in the process, although that isn't the main focus. The hermeneutics and Bible classes will be of great help, and if I major in something like biology, then one |

Having some first hand experience here, I'll offer my two cents.
To condense what Gs said, true rearing of children is in the home. Schools, church, and youth ministry are a supplement to the learning and guidance at home. The problem is that people have tried to make dessert their main diet. As for youth ministry, I won't decry it as unbiblical by any means, but I am afraid that many youth groups are too often shallow. That drives me nuts. I'm fine with some entertainment, using some modern technology and what not, even having some nights of just godly fun, but I think that there are way too many of those nights, and not enough of the serious study that students are capable of. I wish people wouldn't think of my generation as being so stupid. We are capable of learning truths that are difficult to understand if you teach us through them diligently. I mean, if myself and many other can grasp the concepts of chemistry, algebra, and calculus, then I bet we could understand, with a couple of good weeks teaching, that the Levitical laws were set up in a surzerain-vasal covenant and not intended for us today. But sadly, I don't expect to hear and explanation of surzerain-vasal versus grave covenants in a youth group.
One last positive is that it has given me some pretty go |
