Well, technically evolution doesn't necessarily say that we came from nothing, but says that we evolved from a previous form.

Many creationists flip out when you mention Darwin, but in fact all Darwin was saying is that creatures adapt to their environment. Which is true. You can see that now. (Though I'm not quite sure what adaptations were necessary to form the duck billed platypus. *grin*)

I don't believe that we came from monkeys, nor do I believe that we just randomly started. I do believe we were created by god, but I also believe that we were created to evolve.

I don't think we looked like what we do now, however many billions of years ago we first got here. The world has changed since then, and the only way humanity could have survived it was to adapt.

Sure, we may have started via the big bang, but it's not a completely unheard of idea that a god started the whole bang.

I find it a more awesome concept that we started from something else and came to be what we are today, instead of god just going *boom* and we all are here.


They who understand the difference between the creation and the creator, and know the technique of liberation from the trap of Maya, with the help of knowledge, attain the Supreme. (13.34) -Bhagavad Gita
