Where does that leave us??

Evolution ...or more accurately, the belief in it, is adopted by some people who say they also believe in God. But, the scientific community (at least that part of it which promotes evolution) has no place for God in its theories.

Those who say they believe in God, and also quickly accept evolution, usually feel God doesn't have to be mentioned because they feel God is rather detached from us ...and impersonal for the most part.

What lends to this type of thinking??  Is it because God is impersonal, or is it a personal struggle of our own ...not wanting to embrace the Bible as truly the Word of God, yet rather bowing to self-ordained intellectual giants whom we will never hear promoting the necessity of accepting God personally in our life??

Evolution is most accurately described, by their own terms within their own theory, as survival of the fittest.  With that, I see no room for discussion on any topic of right or wrong, nor any basis for complaints. Yet, if we think we have evolved to a nonviolent society (and if you believe that, I don't know when it is that you first removed yourself from all remnants of reality), then perhaps you also believe you are best fit to have this conversation.  I don't know what your criteria is, but the mind which has left the body and feels it is able to act and survive independently ...perhaps believes it has evolved to a new level, of which I still call arrogance. 

And I believe that arrogance is often just a step away from not surviving ...as it believes that its own thinking is not in danger.

Now, it's not problematic to look to see who is most fit to pitch in the rotation for the Major League playoffs.  And which of us do not take our turn at being a Monday morning quarterback?

Even more difficult may be our choice on who to vote for as being the most fit to become President (2016 election).  And is that often is more tied to what fits our personal desires ...than what may be good for the nation??

But, even more problematic is what more intimately fits our personal desires ...and how we rate in this big scheme of things. I know many men and women, who've in the past couple years, happily announced the soon expected arrival of a child. By reading their comments, I easily conclude that there is no life so precious as the one they are soon anticipating.  I see the posts of the ultrasound photos.  I read the comments of the adorable thumb in mouth, giving birth to so many real heartfelt expressions. The vulnerable and innocent little hands lovingly reach here and there ...not knowing that their value is being judged solely upon the perspectives of those who've conceived them, the very essence of whom they are depending upon for survival.

I just believe that they have as much value as that which is placed upon me ...by the One who is responsible for my survival, each day and throughout eternity.

It is said, that the hand that rocks the cradle ...rules the world. Yet, there are those who not only want to rock the boat ...but, to shake the entire earth.  To fail to acknowledge, and therefore destroy the bond between mother and child ...creates a vicious denial which ultimately will destroy both, if not at some time repented of & re-established.

These conversations cannot exist in a world of only evolutionary thinking ...as those who deny or abort their families, can only be considered unfit parents who would have unfit children, living in unfit neighborhoods.  And all other lives in those unfit neighborhoods fall under the same umbrella, protected from the few drops of perceived condemnation ...while the current sweeps your feet from under you. 

Unfit??  As ugly as that sounds ...so many have accepted the lie, not realizing that evolution depends upon the promotion of lies. And it is the deceptive comfort of those who don't fit God into their lives.
