If God created us, why can't he created other things, after all he created angels, demons and other things.

Your concept of the books of the bible are totally wrong.\nThe bible writers were chosen by God and their writings weren't just added together.\nThe library as we know it, now bound together was written over nearly 6 thousand years.\nYou cannot make a holy man of yourself. If not inspired of God, nothing will happen. You would be looked on today as a KOOK and ignored

It is my view that the Bible is written by man and may have the writer's bias.  This is not to say that the Bible is not inspired by God/Jehovah or not a valid holy work, but rather His desires have been interpreted by His followers.  After all, if God inspired you to write a holy work that went against what you'd been taught or against common belief, could you write it just as God wants.  We are here on earth b/c we have the freedom to choose Him or not, so why would He control what is written.\n\nI also want to point out that the Bible in modern days is quite fallible.  Most scholars (religious or not) will tell you translating is not a perfect science.  Because most of us can't read the Bible in its original languages, we must rely on what someone has translated for us.  Translating without the original writer is dificult.  One word may have mutlitple meanings, and noone knows which meaning was intended.  That means that even if the Bible is perfectly from the hand of God, it probably isn't anymore.\n\nIf you want me to elaborate, e-mail me at adam_macpharlain@yahoo.com.

NO ONE can answer this question except God!\n\nI believe:\nThe word God would not have been there if God didn't create humans, He created humans becoz this is what a God would do.

In one way, Bible is God's letter of introduction. He described His character through the Bible so that people may know Him. I don't think that He would allow His character to be misrepresented by wrong translations, cause it is His character we, people, can rely on (among other things). If God is omnipotent, I am sure He could and can find a way to prevent some catastrophic errors to appear in the Bible which would lead its readers into wrong assumptions and beliefs.

I personally agree with much of what you are saying. The bible was written by many different men, and is missing parts that were in it many y&#92;centuries ago. We have the English version (thanks to Henry VIII0, and that is a translated version from thee original Hebrew, Arab and Greek. It is therefore, in my opinion, ridiculous to take it literally. I also believe in God but not in the bible, per say. I believe in the golden rule and being a good person but do not allow myself to be bullied into certain behavior and beliefs by the church out of fear.\nBelieve whatever you want, in the end you have to live with yourself, and should therefore be true to yourself. Who cares what anyone else thinks? Many of the people who would "bash you" for not believing in creationism are just narrow minded people who believe what they were brought up to believe and never questioned any of it.

At last! An excellent point in my opinion. If God created humans, then he made us capable of questioning everything around us. Otherwise, we'd never have developed technology, learnt how to advance as a society and form our own opinions. So if he created us that way, why wouldn't we question the Bible and all it states?\nMaybe it's right, maybe it isn't. Surely the challenge is for us to discover that for ourselves, not effectively be told "think like us or go to hell!" If there is a God, we have to hope he's proud that we think for ourselves.

You are correct.. (I believe you mean that man WOULD create him).  As a matter of fact, Man does create god, and gods and make themselves a god over their own life, which leads to questions like this.\n\nFor the sake of shedding a little bit of light in the darkness...\nPlease try to see the amazing coincidences that exist in the world today.  You can find many, many in the book the Holy Bible.  Many scriptures which were written thousands of years prior to the New Testament come to fruition in the New Testament.  These are things which cannot be duplicated intentionally.  These are things that actually happened and are documented historically and literally.\nLook at the amazingly perfect place our world sits in, to support it's life.  The Universe screams for a creator.  Everything is just too perfect.  What about the human body?  Do you really think that things could have evolved from sigle celled organisms into our complex natural state?  Even if the earth were a trillion years old, it wouldn't be enough time.\n\nThat's my take.\n\nI would suggest doing some serious investigating.  The fate of your soul is at stake.\n-Super

because it was written by man and not inspired by God like the Bible is.

In Protestant (liberal) theology there are several "middle grounds."  There is the notion that the Bible "contains God's word" and also that is can "become God's words."  These are of course nuanced meanings of how Scripture communicates God's message through a supposedly imperfect text.

the obvious answer: he didn't, and the bible is a work of fiction.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE.\nBible is God's word, none can deny that. everything in bible is not the views of any individuals rather they are Gods views. Bible was written by the power of Holy Spirit, by people filled with holy spirit. so the holy spirit speaks thro Bible. so it is God speaking thro bible.\nIT IS GOD'S VOICE.\nSO IF YOU DON'T HEAR AND RECOGNIZE YOUR SHEPPERD'S{JESUS} VOICE, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FOLLOW HIM??? IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO FOLLOW HIM THEN HOW CAN YOU BE HIS FLOCK???

This is an interesting subject. First of all I do belive in God&Creationalism, but however Im not very religous.Before God created Adam and Eve there must have been life on Earth.\nPerhaps God chose the Earth to put Man on because it was a very viable place to live. In Genisis chapter one it is written "In the begining God created the heavens and the Earth, and the Earth was VOID and WHITHOUT form" "Then the Spirit of the Lord moved apon the face of the deep... Its hard to say really, but in my opinion this is similar to the way science sugests that it all began, on a barren rocky world filled with an endless sea with which life could proliferate. There is evidence on the surface of the Earth that sugests that massive impacts from space have occured. Perhaps before the time of Man, the Earth was filled with Dinosaurs and 'quote' other prehistoric life and it was a great place for LIFE. Then one day for a reason known only to God, he chose to destroy the Earth with an asteroid so massive that it compleatly decimated everything, and left the planet, dark, void, and without proper form. The neanderthal men, in my opinion are evidence of somthing else mentioned in the Bible. In Genisis chapter six it says "the sons of God saw the beatiful women of the human race, and took any they wanted as there wives...in those days and even after GIANTS lived on the Earth" .The sons of God probly refers to angelic beings. Neanderthals were supposed to be much larger, and more robust then regular  humans of today. I think I have seen a few shows on the Discovery channle about human evolution, and acording to science, neanderthals, and humans most likely lived side by side. Then for reasons unknown, there was only MAN left as if the neanderthal died out. What about the great Mammoths, Sloths, Sabertoothed Cats, among other animals? I think that they, and the neanderthals were not included on NOAHS ARK. There is so much information to think about! Even so, there is still a lot of mystery. I do know one thing, all the PERFECT laws of the universe, from GRAVITY to MAGNATISIM, to PHYSICS just prove that that the universe was created intelligently, and beatifully might I ad. Sorry to type so much I have wandered about these issues too. Please remember that I was just speaking hypotheticaly on the what ifs. Hope I helped a little.

you are posing the same idea that Lucifer did to Eve. That God had some evil intent in His edict. Why or why not eat of the tree is not the issue. God could have just as well of said "Do not pee where the grass does not grow" The real issue is whether to obey God or not. The exercise of free will as according to Gods plan was initiated here so that after the full consequence of self interest is evident and the world is impacted as it has been God could then show that the exercise of the will by choosing to Love God through Christ would be possible, to the intent that the manifold wisdom of God might be known by the church to the principalities and powers in heavenly places.

yes,because in the Bible it says that a group of people tried to build steps to Heaven,and God made the languages so that they could not discuss building this together..thats how it came to be.

They don't. The Bible was written a few million years after the disappearance of the dinosaurs by people who did not have a clue about them. The Genesis book was inspired by the Babylolian's myths of Creation. Every old civilization had its own myth of Creation. We now have mathematicians, astrophysicists, biologists, etc. to inquire these fundamental questions : «What is the history of the universe? How did life began and evolved on Earth or - maybe - elsewhere ?» Etc.
