I believe in God. I do not believe he placed anything on this Earth. I believe in evolution, but something had to create that ball of energy. Matter is never created nor destroyed, some something had to put it there.

The Bible is a book about morals. Funny, because a lot of the stuff in the bible is made up. Garden of Eden... doesn't exist. Nice story until we got satellites and looked all over Egypt. It ain't there. Oh ya, and Apples can't grow in that region, so don't think they ate from an Apple tree. How do people still believe in it? They say if God doesn't want you to find it, you won't. Seems to me that ran out of answers.

That brings me to my next point. Religion is a way to explain the unexplained. Always has been. Look at Greek mythology. Back then science couldn't explain as many things. What causes lightning? The great God Zeus, obviously! Now we shrunk it down to one God, and have the same idea. What we can't explain, we use religion to answer. Such as what started the world, and where we go after we die.

Also, in many cases, Christianity contradicts itself. I just need to listen in church more to find them all. One example is how they God can forgive any sin. Then they go on to say some sins God can't forgive, and you will go to hell. Logically, it makes no sense. So you need to question religion. It is really true, or a way of explaining the unexplained, and scaring society into behaving morally?
