Lakers Baby, I am liberal and agnostic. I am agnostic because the religious could be right. Haven't you wondered why they've argued for millennia? Neither is proven.
BTW: I agree with the answerer, above me, Sam. I'd like to add on to what she said with this: Evolution is just a theory. And if it's true, it's entirely possible that evolution is God's way of "creating" the newer generations of organisms. Of course, this would mean that He'd have to create the first one, but then who's to say that He wasn't the one to originally put amino acids together to form the first organisms millions or thousands of years ago? What if time is not a constant? To God, maybe 10,000 years (Christian Creation) is the same as the extended Big Bang theory millions of years ago? Could they have been the same? I THINK Einstein believed in this possibility because he DID believe time was relative.
Edit 2: Whoops, forgot to add my conclusion. I think that all religions should be taught in American schools as well as the idea behind evolution and atheism. I mean why not? We're depriving our kids of serious education in the manner. It would be foolproof by having a christian, a muslim, a jew, a hindu, an atheist, a taoist and whatever other major religions there are at every major public high school in the country, with the option of taking a course through high school in religion, where each semester they would learn a new one (in any order they desire because that's what the guidance councilors are for). This would go in with the core classes, but it would mean that we'd have to cut down on those other extracurricular classes. P.E. seems pretty stupid to me. If kids want to work out, they can do it on their own time. That's how I did it. There's a lot of fighting over the dissent in the world today. With a little of the taxpayer money going into this program, we would be investing in a more united America. People would understand each others' positions more instead of fighting with and insulting those with other religious views without knowing the facts. It's a hefty investment, but unity is what America stands for. For good reason...without it you can see our ideals corroding and we've resorted to semi-socialism to prevent excessive disaster and allowing the poorest in the country to simply die off.
The answer: Amino acids have never been proven to form outside of an organism's body except in a flask with humans' intervention. So we know this: the only ways life could form from nothing but chemicals is if a.) God did it or b.) It happened by accident under VERY specific conditions AND MORE specific conditions to nurture the newly formed life to sustain it. This part could have happened with OR without His intervention. Which came first, chicken or the egg? It could well have been both.
Sam:
ƒ(x)=∫ (0->1) (Libx-Con) dx
∫f dx = x(libx-con) all divided by just 1.
It's meant to depict the meaningful and simultaneously meaningless difference between conservative and liberal since we're all American and ultimately we will all share the same fate, we're all under one or more God(s) to some and all under one beautiful, chaotic, yet organized reality together.
I put an indefinite formula into a definite-only sequence to convey this. How do we know we exist beyond our own perception of it? What if our dream world is the REAL world and we just keep coming back here to this realm for something else?? What if they're balanced or this theory is incomplete or totally wrong? Whatever. Bed time!!
