Theists can totally believe that God lives up in a cloud, made Adam and Eve, got Mary pregnant, created everything they know in their world, yet, they refuse to believe that life started from single-celled organisms. The most far-fetched stories and miracles are completely plausible to them but not evolution. What's the difference?
God B. Less If God B. At All

I am fairly educated and understand some of the mechanisms for evolution but I still struggle with other parts. How it all fits together I don't know. Belief in God and special creation does not preclude evolution occurring and giving rise to knew species of animals. However the theory of how it all got started, or that everything comes from a single cell leaves a lot to be desired.

The only real difference is faith. The idea of there being a god is, to most people, much more appealing than the idea of evolution. With religion, there is an afterlife, and people are given a morality system to follow. This does not come with science. It's not supposed to make sense to us, and atheism isn't supposed to make sense to theists. We'll just never truly understand each other, unless we truly have been on both sides. And even if I wanted to, I can't fool myself into believing there is a god. I'm too logical for that.

Do you know how it is possible for one cell to become billions of cells in the human body
Do you know how a human baby can develop into so many cells so fast.
See it doesnt take millions of years if you are created by a supernatural God
How does one cell become two with just time on its side. How does one cell become a cell that makes up another structure like an eye or a brain. Evolution is a lot harder to prove than Gods creations

Can you help me understand atheists? They believe the world started from a big bang and we evolved from primates, but they can't believe in a God that loves them so much as to offer his son to die so we don't have to live in this crap hole of a world that we screwed up forever? It must suck to be an atheist; to think that this is all there is. That we are here by mistake and just animals. That there is nothing after we die except dirt and maggots. That must suck so much. At least I have hope. And as for all the crazy stuff in the Bible, if you can't believe in it, that's fine, nobody can force you, but I think it's pretty awesome. I mean, atheists believe is some weird stuff too, but it's all science and boring crap. Where's the fun in that?
