Religion teaches man was made from clay (Earth) is this scientifically correct according to biological studies

In a very limited sense you could say that it is correct.\n\nScience holds that all of life (not just man) originated materials available on the Earth.  If "clay" is a euphemism for "water + earth materials", then you could say it is true.\n\nSo science doesn't so much have a problem with the "clay" part as with the "was made from" part.

What? You mean those volumes of factual research written by scientists. The same scientists that said the world was flat. The same scientists that said the atom could not be split. The same scientists who said we would never put a man on the moon. O.K. I believe in the Bible because I know it is true. It was inspired by a God who knows everything.

most things that scientists have made are duplicates of what God has already created but they have not be able to make LIFE. They cant make "real human" because the source of life is with God.

I think that any religion that advocates peace and harmony among people, and harmony with nature, is pretty close to what God would want.  My thinking is that if God did create the Earth, and nature, and Man, then he would not want those things damaged.

NO NO NO!!!\n\nThis is about science and the lack of divine intervention.  The reason the planet seems so perfectly balanced is because it had 4.6 Billion years to get here.  A lot can happen in the trial-and-error game in that amount of time.  The earth evolves, life evolves, the only thing that remains stagnent and vestigial is theism.\n\nWhat you proposed is non-science, it is not a testable hypothesis.  Evolution is a tried and true, uber-tested and passed law of life.\n\nEvery fossil, every observation in biology points to evolution. There is nothing that goes against it or points to a different way to scientifically explain modern diversity. There is not one fossil or one piece of DNA that does NOT point to evolution. It would be hard NOT to see the concrete evidence, and only those blinded by faith can do this.\n\nEvolution is 100% world-wide accepted fact, including the evolution of man.\n\nThere is ZERO evidence for a higher being causing anything. This is why people who are religious need faith, you can't see or study the actions of a deity, by definition. Evolution has ZERO faith and ALL evidence.\n\nScientists (real ones) have been studying and supporting evolution for over 150 years, and still nothing has pointed to creationism. There is clear links and transitional forms between everything in the fossil record to the Class-Family level, if not Genus-Species level. And this includes humans, which there are several 'missing links' which are well described and studied, people just choose to ignore this. Sure, there are still things we don't know, but that's why science is not stagnent and dead. We learn more every day, that's what happens when you keep an open mind and follow the scientific method.\n\nThere are some areas of evolution in which all of the pieces have not been found in the fossil record, but there is no counter theory that has even ONE piece of evidence that can not easily be explained by evolution.\n\nLet me turn the question around, if Creationism was correct and science could definitively prove Creationism (and thus the existence of God), why would they not? That would be the greatest scientific discovery in the history of the world. No one would pass that up to maintain the 'status quo'. There is no conspiracy to hide creation evidence. Anyone who knows real scientists knows they are glory-mongers first. They love to prove others wrong to enhance their own standing. And if any scientist could prove Creation/God, it would've been done a long time ago.\n\nGo to a museum, take a class in biology, go to reputable sites on the Internet (like AAAS: http://www.aaas.org/news/press_room/evolution or http://www.talkorigins.org ) and find out for yourself.

both are plausible. faith and science cannot disprove the other. you can try all you want to use God to explain science and use science to explain God but in the end you will find that science happens through the will of God.\n\nkeep in mind that humans have souls and animals do not. perhaps our souls (something not bound by the laws of science) are the image of God while our physical appearances are only our animalistic aspect. \n\nwe are God's creation, but also made in their image.

Man was made in gods immage but there are some life forms that weren't and they must eather be converted to gods immage or be phased out. I'm talking about space creatures you wouldn't think that the problems on earth come form space but they do

god created man. and man is NOT perfect

Yes, it's a fact.\n\nAlso the earth is not flat, it's round. (Bible wrong)\nThe sun does not set in a puddle of mud. (Koran wrong)\nThe sun does not revolve around the earth (Bible wrong) \nThe Earth does not have 4 corners. (Bible wrong)\n\nEvolution is a fact. All life on earth evolved from other life on earth. If you can't accept this, SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP but don't try to pass your fairytales off as science (intelligent design). They are not science.\n\nStop trying to sneak Jesus into the science classroom dressed in a white lab coat.\n\nIf someone don't understand evolution, they should try studying it, rather than asking stupid questions like, "If we evolved from monkeys, then why are there still monkeys?" - wow, some people are just so pathetically stupid, it makes me want to cry.

I think most people who believe in Christianity also understand that science has a part in the process as well. Thus, while God may have created the Earth and all, there is still a process of evolution that occurs.

It's true. I saw a movie about it and I learned it in Bible class. It even says it in the Bible.

God does.  And he believes in prevention rather than punishment (in the case of science at least)\n\nAnswer:\nGod created the natural world. Science is the study of it.

Empirical science does not prove the Bible wrong but certain beliefs that some scientists hold do go against the Bible. The bible is historically accurate more than any other written work in existance. It was also written with geographical points of reference. Archeology has verified so many cities, locations of all kinds, buildings, peoples, and the occurance of major events, existance of rulers and more up to the 2nd chapter of the first book of the Bible, Genesis, where the first landmarks are mentioned. There is no conflict with observable science and the content of scripture. Prophecy has been shown to be verified from past accounts in the Bible making it a unique book. The human history in geneology is found in the bible up to the birth of Jesus. The provable accounts of where the main nations came from are recorded in the book of Genesis chapter 10. \n\nAnyone with a unbiased opinion would be able to see that the Bible is very unique to the Point of being divinely written when a general study of it is done. The present world events and the ones still come will further enhance the divine mark of the Bible when the fullfilment of more prophecy is seen as in the world ruler arising and the Jewish Temple rebuilt and more.\n\nUsually it is the issue of Darwinian evolution that some people try to hold against the Bible when it comes to science but when it comes down to it observable science (not the philoshophy of Darwinism) is in harmony with the Bible where it states that creatures multiply according to their own kind as stated in the first chapter of Genesis. \n\nHistory also proves that people have been changed by the influence of the Bible as well as whole nations being impacted as the history of the U.S.A. shows.

More important. If man was made from dirt, why is dirt not still turning into people?

Evolution is a theory. It is what science is all about. Religion and Science can go hand in hand. I believe the biblical creation story of 7 days to God is actually like a million years to us!! god gave man intellect to study the creators creation therefore study God's marvelous works. peace.

You must find what is "True for you."  The Bible gives us a history lesson.  It uses analogies to make important points.  Was the earth created in six days? Probably not. But then what were days. We have imperical, scientific evidence to prove otherwise,or do we?\n\n Should we not eat pork? The Koran or Qu'ran as well as the Torah say no.  Yet there is no scientific evidence that pork is bad for you.\n\n Should we worship animals?  Native Americans believe that the essence of God resides in them.  Are they right?\n\nThe Mormons believe that the Angel Morony delivered sciptures to Joseph Smith in Palmyra, New York establishing the Church of Later Day Saints.\n\n  Nothing is 100% true, the Aztecs and the Egytians prayed to the same God but didn't know it. There will be translations and interperatations of all religions but it is up to us, the individual, to find the right path.  My God believes in the health and well being of all who believe in "Him" and all who do not (He knew us before we were born).\n\n Who is "Him" ? Is it Christ or Vishnu, or Mohammed or Buddah.  It is certainly not a "God" who instructs me to kill other people.  \n\n  We all accept the individual nature of "us". If we were the translators in this era we would be using words(sounds) such as b= be, U= you, axe=ask, and on and on.\n\nLook at it as if you were going into a McDonalds for lunch.  You would order something different than I would, but we both get exactly what we need. \n\n That is the point, we get what we need and how to use that knowledge.  God tells us how to better ourselves to make us a better stewart of his love. To be closer to Him.\n\nKW
