The bible doesn't mention the creation of any other race does it?  Would that mean they are mearly base animals as they aren't in Gods image.  If they were animals, and smarter than us, what would that say about God?

Ahhh, the government has already tried that trick on us before..naughty naughty naughty...thou shalt not tell a lie!!!  I'd have to see it with my own two peepers, and even then, after I checked "it" out, naw, possibly some mutants that the government let out the back door of someone's science experiment.  Sad but true. Oh my what we don't know what's going on under our noses.  :(

The Bible says:\n\nEzekiel 1:15-16 - \n"Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one WHEEL upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces. \n\nThe appearance of the WHEELS and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a WHEEL in the middle of a WHEEL. "\n\nEzekiel 1: 19-20\n"And when the living creatures went, the WHEELS went by them: and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. \n\nWhithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither was their spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the WHEELS."\n\nAlso, several verses in the 10th chapter of Ezekiel. Like:\nEzekiel 10:12-13\n\n"And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the WHEELS, were full of eyes round about, even the WHEELS that they four had.\n\nAs for the WHEELS, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O WHEEL."\n\nLM

The Bible was written by ancient people who didn't have a clue as to what was going on in the world that they lived in. So now religion makes up excuses for the mistakes in the Bible (the Word of God).If we all came from Adam & Eve where did Black , Chinese, Hispanic Aborigines or other races come from. In college I was told to believe that Black people were the first race . I asked the professor where did Chinese people come from  The professor ( a Black woman) said that they came from the original black people. I asked, "Have you ever heard of a Black family that over the generations have  become Chinese?"  Don't believe everything that's in the bible because there are many mistakes that religions try to ignore.

Taking the religious aspect out of homosexuality...think for a second how incredibly unnatural it is.....females were designed to produce offspring and that takes a male counterpart. If homosexuality was right and natural then how would we ever continue the human race??? Please name one other animal on this earth where a male is with a male......I know people would say you can't compare humans to animals but we are. We are the more intelligent species of animals but we are animals. Heterosexuality just seems a little more natural to me....

We have fact and the ability to think  on our side. Facts that prove that there is no god. That means that you only have ignorance on your side. No one but Christians suggest we came from monkeys, that is just one more example of their ignorance. Evolutionists say humans and apes came from a common ancestor that was not either human or monkey. Do you really think creationism is better? We came from Adam and eve? So then all after them were inbred. The family must have sat down together for orgies. Inbreeding that closely would kill a species, but god let them live to f*** their mothers. I would think you would rather be related to apes, than come from motherf***ers. You need not kid yourself by suggesting that you have a trace of intelligence, when you don't have a clue as to what you are talking about. Have a nice day.

Aliens seeded us on this planet, but they'er not extraterrestrial beings. They are subterrestrial, living deep within the bowels of the earth. They have been here for a very long time. In the bible it says God had walked up to Abraham with two others, supposedly they were angels. I believe all three were "aliens". \n   God, on the other hand, does exist. But what is God? What form? Nobody knows. This God created everything: us, the aliens, the universe.

Im astonished that people actually think that humans CAME FROM monkeys or apes. we didnt come from either of them, we just are in the same family, like dogs are related to wolves. We actually came from a much larger primate than a freakin monkey. we are of the same family as them but no we did not come from them. and why do people relate the evolution thing to whether there is a god or not? i dont get that at all, all it proves is that humans as we know them werent the first on earth, who knows... maybe adam and eve were cavemen.

I beg to differ with andyman_69. Other animals use tools. Other animals have languages. What is interesting is that so far, humans have not had much luck at deciphering their languages and have had more success at teaching them ours, either sign language or recently, to even use typewritten words displayed on a computer screen to communicate. \n\nOn top of this, there are many other behaviors that we share in common with our closest animal relatives. More than we would care to admit, I suspect. Then there is the remarkable genetic evidence that is slowly becoming more and more impressive. \n\nIt is all extremely interesting. What interests me more, is, what is consciousness? Do only humans have it? Or only a small number of other species?\n\nAnd if that is so, why? \n\nIf God did it, how? \n\nAnd I am not just referring to biblical references, but hard data and evidence that we can test in the laboratory.

Christ started the entire charistian religous adventure. Would it be fair to say the Christianity is a religion and a race. A race that is poulated by blood descendants of jesus? Unlikely.\n\nOr, the first jew was Abraham who took the commandment from God outside of the cty of Ur, check out the old testament for this. Before that Abraqham was not a Jew, just like Christ was Jewish befor he converted to Christianity by his death by some charistians account. Therefore the only true members of the Jewish race would be blood descendants of Abraham. Again not a likely defintion or race event.\n\nBut to be precise here is the definition of race(noun)\na group of persons related by common descent or heredity.  \n2. a population so related.  \n3. Anthropology. a. any of the traditional divisions of humankind, the commonest being the Caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negro, characterized by supposedly distinctive and universal physical characteristics: no longer in technical use.  \nb. an arbitrary classification of modern humans, sometimes, esp. formerly, based on any or a combination of various physical characteristics, as skin color, facial form, or eye shape, and now frequently based on such genetic markers as blood groups.  \nc. a human population partially isolated reproductively from other populations, whose members share a greater degree of physical and genetic similarity with one another than with other humans.  \n \n4. a group of tribes or peoples forming an ethnic stock: the Slavic race.  \n5. any people united by common history, language, cultural traits, etc.: the Dutch race.  \n6. the human race or family; humankind: Nuclear weapons pose a threat to the race.  \n7. Zoology. a variety; subspecies.  \n8. a natural kind of living creature: the race of fishes.  \n9. any group, class, or kind, esp. of persons: Journalists are an interesting race.  \n\nThe only definitions for race that come close are"\n 4. a group of tribes or peoples forming an ethnic stock: the Slavic race.  \n5. any people united by common history, language, cultural traits, etc.: the Dutch race\n\nJews may or may not have developed from a common tribe or ethnic stock. If you believe they did, the 12 tribes of Israel...then Yes Jews are a race.\n\nIf you believe that jews are united by a common history...you are making a wek argumenbt as Jews can be found in many countries and cultures are are unrelated by a common history, language or culture.\n\nNo...jews only have a religion in common. They are a very diverse froup of individuals spread arounfd the world living within cultures and speaking diverse languages so they are not tryuly a race as such.

Your statement could be true, but you'll need to work on your argument. What if it wasn't true that we're animals? What if we really did each possess a spark of divinity, either granted by God or unique to humans some other way? If humans were fundamentally different from animals, we could concievably need the old stories about gods and magic, since their relevance would not diminish with age and technology, as neither of which would impact our innate human divinity. Similarly, seeing the earth from space might indeed prove human superiority instead of diminish it; we're the first and only being capable of such magnificent works. However, I don't see the "earth-from-space" thing as important at all.\n\nBut yeah, it could be true. Doesn't make it true though.

Because not all apes turned into humans so some apes remained to keep reproducing. And just a question for the other answerers: If god created everything, surely he could have not created himself bringing up my point: Who created god, but then who created the thing, that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,that created the thing,.... that created god?

The Bible does mention horses in Heaven, but there is only one Heaven, and it's reserved for souls of people who have freely chosen God. Animals act according to instinct as God has pre-programmed them. They have no soul but sure are cute.

Kinda prejudiced in the way you asked, dontcha think?  :-)\n\nThe story of Adam and Eve is a parable.  I don't expect it was meant literally even by the people who wrote it.  I feel very sorry for the small-minded people who have to have the story be "true" in order to see any value to it.\n\nEvery human on the planet has a gene that, if it worked, would make us as furry as chimpanzees are.  It doesn't work, it has a transposon (a type of genetic parasite) stuck in it.  Without that transposon, we'd all have to pay a lot more for shampoo every month!\n\nSo, the question before the creationists is, wherefore doth we have it?  Did God create us with a broken gene, complete with parasite, that we don't even want?  Or were Adam and Eve furry?  So far, I've only found one creationist willing to accept that Adam and Eve were hirsute people.\n\nThere are a thousand arguments like this.  To date, creationists flee in terror from all of them, while presenting the same old, tired, long refuted nonsense in support for their cause.  They cannot explain the pattern of genetic similarity.  They cannot explain how the Great Flood hasn't left the entire surface of the earth salt-infused and sterile.  They cannot explain how any species more complicated than a protozoa survived the flood.  They've got nothing.\n\nResponding to some of the nothing they have:\n\nPopulation Growth:\n\nAssuming a constant rate of population growth is simply naive and silly.  We *know* the population growth hasn't been constant.  Remember the black death?  60% of Europe *died*.  That's not growth!\n\nIf we apply the same argument to fruit flies, we find that the entire earth is covered in fruit flies in a matter of days.  Funny how that hasn't happened.  It's almost as if populations do not experience continuous growth because limits are set by the environment!\n\nAnother fun fact about the constant population growth argument:  If it's true, the Bible LIES!  After all, at the time of Exodus, it says more people left Egypt than existed on earth at the time!\n\nSo, dump the rather silly population growth argument.\n\nDinosaurs:\n\nThere are NO human fossils found with dinosaur fossils.  Not a single one.  You're welcome to point out a specific exception.  There are three sites showing "human" and dinosaur footprints, but Paluxy is a product of wishful thinking and some faking by townsfolk hoping to get more tourist dollars (they admitted this) and the other two (Tuba City and some site in Russia I don't remember) are just really bad fakes.\n\nDinosaurs are not lizards.  Let a lizard grow forever and it will not turn into anything resembling a dinosaur.  This is one of Carl Baugh's silly claims and it causes nothing but ridicule for creationists.  Lizards belong to the suborder Laertes.  They have sprawling legs.  A large lizard has large sprawling legs.  Dinosaurs have legs better mounted. Small dinosaurs have smaller legs.  Small dinosaurs cannot be mistaken for lizards.  (Well, if you're utterly ignorant about biology, I suppose they could.)\n\n(At least Baugh stopped claiming that breathing pure ozone would help you live for hundreds of years, despite the fact that ozone is explosive and poisonous!  But since when has a creationist needed to understand a subject before making declarations about it.) \n\nSea monsters as evidence?  Gee, now that's desperate.  I'm sure you'll present the physical evidence that dinosaurs were fire-breathing next, right?  Sheesh!\n\nOh, and carbon dating has not been "proven wrong".  Not that it matters.  There are thousands of different dating systems.  Carbon dating, by the way, only works on organic materials:  NOT FOSSILS.  Dinosaur fossils are NEVER dated by carbon dating.  So, you're wrong.  Again.\n\nLaw of Angular Momentum:\n\nUm... because other collisions happen?  I know, stunning!\n\nReally dumb argument.\n\nHistoric

This is a hard question though it does not say specficly that dinosaurs was created in the Bible, God did give Adam the authority to name every living creature..\n\n\n\nThe Bible refers to many the common animals we know today. The list includes lions, wolves, bears, sheep, cattle and dogs along with various kinds of birds, rodents, reptiles, and insects. What is interesting is that this extensive list includes three animals that we no longer recognize. These three are (in the original Hebrew language) tanniyn, b@hemowth (yes, it’s spelled correctly—at least as close as we can get in Roman characters), and livyathan.\n\n\nAlthough we alter the spelling of behemoth and Leviathan slightly, we still use those same words in bibles today. However, tanniyn is always translated into another word when we write it in English. Tanniyn occurs 28 times in the Bible and is normally translated “dragon.” It is also translated “serpent,” “sea monster,” “dinosaur,” “great creature,” and “reptile.” Behemoth and Leviathan are relatively specific creatures, perhaps each was a single kind of animal. Tanniyn is a more general term, and it can be thought of as the original version of the word “dinosaur.” The word “dinosaur” was originally coined in 1841, more than three thousand years after the Bible first referred to “Tanniyn.”\n\n\nBehemoth has the following attributes according to Job 40:15-24\n\n\nIt “eats grass like an ox.” \nIt “moves his tail like a cedar.” (In Hebrew, this literally reads, “he lets hang his tail like a cedar.”) \nIts “bones are like beams of bronze,\nHis ribs like bars of iron.” \n“He is the first of the ways of God.” \n“He lies under the lotus trees,\nIn a covert of reeds and marsh.” \nSome bibles and study bibles will translate the word “behemoth” as “elephant” or “hippopotamus.” Others will put a note at the edge or bottom of the page, stating that behemoth was probably an elephant or a hippopotamus. Although an elephant or hippopotamus can eat grass (or lie in a covert of reeds and marsh), neither an elephant or a hippopotamus has a “tail like a cedar” (that is, a tail like a large, tapered tree trunk). In your kid’s dinosaur book you will find lots of animals that have “tails like a cedar.”\n\nWe would expect behemoth to be a large land animal whose bones are like beams of bronze and so forth, so whatever a behemoth is, it is large. A key phrase is “He is the first of the ways of God.” This phrase in the original Hebrew implied that behemoth was the biggest animal created. Although an elephant or a hippopotamus are big, they are less than one-tenth the size of a Brachiosaurus, the largest (complete) dinosaur ever discovered.[1] A Brachiosaurus could therefore easily be described as “the first of the ways of God.”\n\n\nLeviathan has the following attributes according to Job chapter 41, Psalm 104:25,26 and Isaiah 27:1. This is only a partial listing—just enough to make the point.\n\n\n“No one is so fierce that he would dare stir him up.” \n“Who can open the doors of his face, with his terrible teeth all around?” \n“His rows of scales are his pride, shut up tightly as with a seal; one is so near another that no air can come between them; they are joined one to another, they stick together and cannot be parted.” \n“His sneezings flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. Out of his mouth go burning lights; sparks of fire shoot out. Smoke goes out of his nostrils, as from a boiling pot and burning rushes. His breath kindles coals, and a flame goes out of his mouth.” \n“Though the sword reaches him, it cannot avail; nor does spear, dart, or javelin. He regards iron as straw, and bronze as rotten wood. The arrow cannot make him flee; slingstones become like stubble to him. Darts are regarded as straw; he laughs at the threat of javelins.” \n“On earth there is nothing like him, which is

I rather like the fall from the sky theory you presented.  And, interestingly enough, some Indigenous American folklore says we DID indeed come from the sky.\n\nAs far as the Bible goes, it dissuades one from the monkey/black hypocrisy.  No where does it say man of any color came from another animal.  So, those wonderfully hateful racist who both claim Christianity and that black man came from an ape are not only sadly misinformed, they are defiling their own religion. \n\nIn the Bible it says Adam was created from dust (Genesis 2:7), so how about if it was a variety of colors of earth? [see link 2] (Okay, I get into a lot of trouble with theologians when I say that, but I'm not kidding! LOL)\n\nActually, Biblically, it's explained in Genesis 10.  God divided the earth amongst Noah's sons.  They were different colors because either Adam had all colors of soil in his make-up or ----- let us assume at this time it was from environmental causes until some greater Biblical scholar corrects me with the proper verses to indicate written proof.

The Bible does not tell us but they were created and not born of a woman. When God made them it is possible that they did not have one however, He could have given them one. Genesis 1: 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Rich C good question, after ready many answers they all forgot Genesis 1:24 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. Some may read this and say what's the point, the point is that God created every living thing according to their own kind, in Latin it says according to their own gene.
