@Budweiser if the catholic church was wrong then all other Christians denominations are wrong also, sane with Islam. Since they all took ideas from them and broke away from them. And "A good tree only produces good fruit and a bad tree only produces bad fruit." so either Catholics are right and always were or they are wrong and so are all that branched from it.

@myronflo12 sorry but it's kinda up to the thiests to prove their theory not to the scientists (not saying one can't be both). That's just how theories work. You can't state something as a fact and expect others to do the work for you. That's like me saying re world was created by a leprechaun and then telling people if they can't prove it's false it must then be a fact. I'm sure you have valid points supporting your beliefs but that particular statement was flawed. OKAYthanksbye :)

Honestly am not sure wether I believe the "big bang" or not, because, to be absolutely honest, just like god mind you, it can not truly be proven. I believe, however, that if I block out all possibilities and look only to religion for answers, we will never know, we will never push boundaries or test what was written. I believe fully in evolution, however, because using smaller animals with shorter life spans, the theory can be proven i.e. The flu, or AIDS. Some of what the church has insisted for centuries is, in fact, false, but although I do not believe in a god, I also do not believe that other people are stupid or ignorant for following their god. I understand the tradition that comes with religion, as well as the safety and hope that it can help a person feel. Sorry for the long post, I'd just like to share my views.

@ichigo UzamakiWalker, they are too greedy and they see the priesthood as a career and a path to power. It is these people, who are at the core of the power of the church, that refuse to change. They oppose anything that will lessen their power and they are unwilling to change things for fear of losing their positions. These are the people who are causing the problems in the church. Also it isn't the religion that came up with these ideas. Jesus never said anything about the earth being flat or it being the centre of the universe. That was all the church. So the root of the churches problems are itself and the people who run it. Irrelevant rant over.

That is actually not what Christians believe. They never said earth is flat, the seven days was an exaggeration (seven days for god), they never believed that they were the center of the universe, and they never said that we were the only intelligent life. Also, if there was no god, what caused the Big Bang, and what made everything before that?
Not really funny, but it is fuel for the coming flame war. Good luck brave souls, I shall not join you in this religion/atheism war.
