If you repeat a lie often enough, people will eventually to come to believe it.[1]
I found the quote to be quite applicable to the lies of Evolution. If the shoe fits, ....
Well, it can apply to Christian lies too... take a look at http://www.biblicalnonsense.com/chapter4.html for a list of some method used for support Christian lies...
Truth is, those fossils of teeth and bones are scientifically proven to be either fully human or fully ape, there hasn't been any found that were in-between.
Human are not ape... it is say human and ape have a common ape-like origin...
The evidence for human evolution is overwhelming. This includes thousands of fossils, which show the progressive straightening of the spine, the increase in brain volume, and change in facial features. Humans inherited their tail bone, a remnant of what was once a human tail, from primate ancestors. All animals have a tail at one point in their development; in humans, it is present for a period of 4 weeks, during stages 14 to 22 of human embryogenesis. Humans have a non-functional third eyelid, the plica semilunaris. Humans also have external ear muscles, which animals use to swivel and manipulate their ears (independently of their head) to focus their hearing on particular sounds. Humans still have remnants of such muscles, but they are now feeble and now are capable only of slightly wiggling the ear. DNA comparisons also show that humans share approximately 96% of their DNA with their closest cousin, the chimpanzee. However, there are very distinct differences between Homo sapiens and Pan DNA. Chimps have 24 chromosomes while humans have 23. About 18 of these chromosomes are nearly identical while there are significant differences in chromosomes 4, 9, 12, 21, and Y. The Y chromosome in Pan is smaller and only about 60% of that of humans.
I believe the complexity of the human body fills us with awe, "for it was you who formed my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works, that I know very well." Psalm 139:13-14 paints a much different picture of our beginning that does darwinian Evolution.
Well, it is not a god who "knit" a human in his mother's womb... all start with a sexual relation where a spermatozoid meet a ovule... from the single cell created from sex, a full human is created following the DNA code... raw material used is from the mother body...
As for the Psalm book, it is filled with non realistic thing ( like all the bible )... by example, at 147:4, it is wrote that "God tells the number of stars and calls them all by their names" ... let say that God was taking 1 single second for call the name of one single star... and with around 10000000000000000000000 stars in the universe... it will have taken God 317097919 million years for call all the star name to his follower... it is about 10 x more that the actual age of the universe !!! The real one, not the 8000 yo thing... seem that God don't really know how much star and have not calls them by their names... that in the bible, the level of knowledge of God is somehow equal to these of people living at these time, in these area... somehow a pretty stupid God when compare to a actual 6yo kid...
If God truly is the inspiration behind this purportedly divine declaration to the world ( bible, he shows absolutely no interest in its understandability or accuracy in astronomy, cosmology, zoology, botany, anthropology, geology, ecology, geography, physiology, and several other disciplines
I don't say that God don't exist... everything is possible... but any real God who is the creator of our know universe will not be stupid like any God depicted in any religious book...
I think that your main mistake is too read the "sacred text" like some scientific text... for me, these "sacred text" are more like the writing from Jean de La Fontaine ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_de_la_Fontaine )... you need to find the education in morals hidden in these text... if you look at "The tortoise and the Hare", it is about overconfidence ... read the "holy text" in the same way and never try to use them as scientific truth...
Now, as for the opening post about atheist, i will make a single comment... everybody is born atheist, it is the influence of parents, friends, church, educational system, tradition who transform the atheist baby in a grow up who believe in some God... At personal level, i think that i am agnostic :
"an agnostic is someone who neither believes nor disbelieves in the existence of a deity or deities"
"agnosticism is the view that human reason is incapable of providing sufficient rational grounds to justify the belief that deities either do or do not exist"
