Hi Snowy,
I meant all questions in relation to the evolution/creation of life on Earth -- those math answers are not covered by Darwin or Christ. (Most likely the Devil
.)
I think chance is the great CREATOR in life. In fact I think "god" and "gods" are simply the personification of chance. Have you never had an incredible day that happened just by chance? Have you never met your soul mate only by chance? Have you never found that special plant just by chance? Have you never found a great deal by chance? I bet your life is full of millions of happy accidents all brought to you by the divine nature of chance. It makes life exciting and all so real. I love it. Scarey? You bet. Lonely? At times. Mysterious? Sometimes. But that is nature and we are but a piece of that wonderfully real and earth bound puzzle.
So you think the Bible seen as history makes it true. Funny, I have always considered poetry to capture truth to a far greater extent than the mere facts and figures of history -- all subject to interpretation and error. Poetry seeks to capture the essence of reality -- it's Platonic nature. Is not that the spine of all religions: to present the meaning of life?
