Evolution: Fact or Fiction???

I the other night that in Florida, the public education system was going to make mandatory the study of evolution, from the scientific stand-point; however, they were leaving out the theological component, disregarding it as "not backable by modern science" (or some such) and that they were only introducing and studying so-called "known scientific facts."

Now, although to some degree i believe that forms of evolution do take place over the years, i do not think it takes millions of years, nor do i think the changes are incredibly drastic, as scientists believe. Instead, evolution takes place on a far smaller scale, and rather quickly; look at the technological rEVOLUTION. I find that word rather ironic, given its meaning. However, in the last half century, humanity has evolved rather rapidly technologically, and gaining.

Now, i am not entirely sure how accurate my info is, however the conversation sparked some interesting question for me. Especially the one about the ever-elusive dinosaur: how did they become extinct, how big were they really, etc... I've heard at least one theologian/religious person speak about some ideas he had, from a Christian standpoint, which seemed to make a lot of sense. I forget his name, ill get that to you ASAP. Anyways, this person believed that dinosaurs are not entirely extinct; such as lizards, which, essentially, resemble mini-dinos. Miracle of creation or evolution? This guy also said that MOST dinos weren't all that big to begin with, more or less the size of a chicken or so (regardless of what the dino-museums tell you, they only feature T-rex's anyways!!!). Also, in the Bible, there is reference (i forget where, unfortunately, can someone help me out with this one?) of a great beast with a tail the size of a cedar. Not one of the little tiny ones we gots now; cedars back then were HUGE! before they logged the trees to extinction...(heh heh... really?)

Another question that comes to mind on the topic of evolution is this: How did the human being, Homosapian, "evolve"?

DUH! Adam and Eve were exactly like us, just without the tech... They weren't a couple of monkey people living in the Amazon jungle, they were NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS living in paradise... Besides, with this whole idea of us evolving from a basic primate into what we are now... well, needless to say, it falls into the same category as the Big Bang Theory and randomized existence.

Therefore, how can we, or any other life-form, possibly have evolved on the scale we supposedly did? God created us, CREATED! in a universe where supposedly, nothing can be "created" or "destroyed". As for millions of years, well, from the crucifiction to now has been...2008 years, give or take. Before that, evidence points to around 8-10 thousand years.

Which brings me to my last point: scientists strongly believe that there way is right...Christians, Bhudists, Muslims, etc, strongly belive there ways are the right ones. It all comes down to this: faith.

But biological evolution is still, at best, minute and rare; and as for God, well, as with fusion, just because you can't reproduce it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist...

Randomosity X-Treme!!!

Being random is fun. No kidding.

My house (and shoes, boots, jacket, bag, and all other personal accesories) are trying to kill me. SO what do you do when your house and everything you own is trying to eat you alive???

A Time of Firsts

I'm finally starting one of these..I figured it's about time, everyone else is doing it, it's a good way to meet people (at least, so it seems...)...

So, to introduce myself. My name is mike, as the title suggests, I live in Canada, and some of you may know my brother, who has become popular rather quickly, what with his excellent writing.
Thus far, that is pretty much all I've got... But not to worry, I'll think of something eventually...
