oh they did
but even as a kid i knew it was just a pretense

the whole "man in the clouds" santy claus interpretation of religion is not only false but meant for children alone, as they are likely not experienced or wise enough to accept the fact that a dualist morality of "good" and "evil" is neither complete nor even correct
(and yes, to all those who still think of good and evil as completely separate states i am calling your sense of morality childish and naive)

it's a stepping stone to facilitate concepts in the mind to make the more complex notions easier to understand

do you guys not like the fact that i am not hating on religion?
then by all means thumb me down! red is my favorite color

I was simply stating that a rift in evolution based on fossil discovery by no means makes the theory of creationism any more legible, as evolution would still be a more reasonable explanation than creationism.

but why would you automatically assume the two are even connected? even as opposites? ...all i saw was a post about science
but the thought that the two are opposed follows the same absolutist principles i mentioned before

and does so poorly, i might add, because evolution and creationism are entirely compatible
there's not a single concept in evolution that negates the possibility of a creator
and, in spite of the interpretations of some fundamentalists, there is nothing in creationism that disagrees with evolution

I'm talking about the 7 days theory, if this is not the same as creationism then I am a fool.

its not
and i'd hardly even call it a theory, considering it was compiled through multiple degrees over several centuries of mistranslations and backtranslations just to come to the english word "day"

and that's assuming the story was meant to be taken literally at all, which it most likely was not

creationism is simply the belief of intelligent design insomuch as something probably created us (and the entire universe) with a purpose in mind
that's it

all this man in the clouds and specificity of days is just semantics that facilitates the understanding; same with the whole santa claus "you go to heaven if you're good and hell if you're bad" shpeel
