Lizard King...I know what you mean. However, you believe in what evidence you have, you believe it to be sound and therefore true. If your evidence was proof, then there wouldn't be any reason to believe in anything but evolution. But it's not. Neither is creation evidence. However, there is probly about an equal amount of evidence for creation that I believe to be sound. There is even some evidence that could support either theory, depending on how you take it. Constants, or variables? It all depends on how you see it. (I'm probly making sense to no one but myself ) That's also why these arguments are almost never ending, since different people carry a different perspective on things.

If we surgically switched our perspectives for a day, I would review the evidence for both and probly come up with a belief in evolution, vice versa for you.

As far as the watchmaker theory, it is viable if you believe in God, but not if you believe the Bible. It conflicts with God's words about His creation that are in the Bible, and it basically says that the flood did not occur, the first 11 chapters of Genesis did not occur, and any reference to the flood or the first 11 chapters by God either didn't occur, or they were lies.

Anyway, aside from what it may seem, I'm not trying to get you to believe Creation. I'm simply trying to open your minds to different points of view, so that you (and creationists too) aren't simply blind sheep that never question what you've been told all your life, evolution or creation.

Enzo, as far as why you must believe the Bible...I'll get right back to you (probly later tonite) about that. I'm going to my youth group tonite, I can ask either one of my leaders or even my pastor about that and get you a good reason.
