If the people who spend time praying would use that time to plant a tree and look after it, wouldn't that be doing 'God's work'? If He made everything as claimed, surely that was a practical effort on his part, and not something magical. I can't see how wasting time thanking and bowing to Him helps our planet. Don't give thanks for a threatened planet with the hope that he will fix it. All the prayer in the world won't cut carbon emissions or plant a tree, and in fact, getting the car out and driving to and from church simply adds more carbon.

If God is real, He must be weeping.

Seems Christians believe there had to be some spiritual being with universal power to create something like 'man'.

If there is no way man could evolve; then how could a 'being' or diety come to be? Especially one which could create the universe and everything else?

I find it hard to believe a diety with all power of all the universe could just appear from nowhere and exist, yet man could not evolve.
Doesn't make sense, does it?

Creation of man. What material did he use?

The big question then is this:- Why did he need a handful of earth to make a human but give the impression that He made everything else from nothing – It says that there was a void. So, what's a void?

I guess that's why the Bible is different things to different people.

Another thing. If, as you say, God made it all, what's wrong with folk trying to find out how? Did He say, 'it is a sin to investigate My work'?

My interest in this subject is that whilst there is ignorance in the world, and we all live in dogmatic realms of diversity, there will never be peace and unity. Open your mind and seek the truth with respect and love for all those who see the universe as incredibly wonderful and beautiful. Guard your planet and it's wonderful diversity of life and turn the book of Revelations into a load of ru – compost.

Sorry 'bout another "God reply", but sometimes peoples ignorance really bothers me.

Look at the solar system; imagine our 4 inner planets and moons being where they are now in the final throws of gas and dust gathering by a flaming object 100 times larger than the sun. [Science has said that a new star has to be that size or larger at birth].

Planets and moons, in my view, have to born after the sun has solar wind capability, so that they have a clean neighborhood to live in. My website reveals the rest of the drama. But think about this first. Mercury would appear to be less developed than Venus – Venus less developed than earth, and earth less developed than Mars. Could this mean that there is an age progression here where Mars may be say 3 billion years older than earth?

I have a question though:
Don't planets form relatively around the same time that a star does?? How do we know where to point the detector if the light emitted (in all wavelengths) would be faint? I'd imagine that most or all of the disc would be used up by the time it would be detectable…
