This will get merged with the other topic, guaranteed.

we're so unique and specific because we have been evolving for thousands of years. if an omnipotent conciousness created it, who created the omnipotent conciousness?

the creationist theory implies that our complex bodies were created with the single stroke of a divine hand, which is equivalent to, quite literally, building rome in one day. we have our brains and our fingers and lungs because we need them, and they formed as the needs presented themselves over the past thousands of years. life adapts, changes, grows to suit the also constantly changing environment.

if a god created us, why would he have created gorillas and chimpanzees? why could he have created creatures so similar to our own? to confuse us? to let us question his existence?

does this theory sound probable?:

adam miraculously appeared on earth, with the intelligence and physical appearance of a human who has lived for approximately 30 years. subsequently, while he was sleeping, a rib was removed from his body, and was used as the building block for a female mate to adam, named eve. eve was a perfectly healthy human, phsysical appearance of a human also approximately 30 years old, despite the fact that a human rib weighs significantly less than a 30 year old homo sapiens, and lacks the organic matter and genetic programming necessary to grow a brain, sexual organs, arms, fingers, lungs, a heart, and other organs required for human survival.

adam and eve sexually reproduced and had children, raising a problem. adam and eve and their children were the only humans that existed on the entire planet. since incest is a sin, their children could not sexually reproduce with eachother, adam and eve could not sexually reproduce with their children, only with eachother, but no matter how many children they had, none of them could sexually reproduce with eachother, or as a consequence, they would recieve a one way ticket to hell as retribution from this "god" character.

which means, if this theory is true, then every single human on the planet is family, and when they sexually reproduce to further the human race, they are sinning, and this means that every single human on the planet is going to hell for incest, if there is one. this isnt quite the image that jesus had for the world, is it?
