> [@BikerFry](#): > > Well it’s official. You called yourself out. You’re a close minded religion bashing biased asshole. My Grandma used to tell me that it’s better to keep your mouth closed and let people think your a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. Nice! > [@BikerFry](#): > > What Jesus taught 2000 years ago was to love your fellow man, remain humble, live for others, etc. He taught that God created the world. 2000 years ago he explained it in a way fathomable to people of that age. “God said let there be everything, and there was everything.” OK, fine. Easy for the average person to understand, still gets the idea across that there is a supreme being. Evolution, the big bang, etc would not have been understood and his moral message would not have gotten across. **I believe that the church picks up where science leaves off.** Maybe God did create man in the likeness of himself, but maybe he achieved it through evolution? > > To me religion and the church are related, but not the same. Religion is my beliefs. Church is an organization. :tup: this is the best explaination of christianity I have heard in a long time. I believe there is a being that created the very beginning of life on this planet and that can be seen in every day life when you look at the marvels that we as a society have created; things worked out a bit too perfect for coincidence even if the universe is infinitely large. Just as you said Jim, life on this planet started at the cellular level but it was coded in those cells to evolve over time and the result is what you see in the mirror every morning. JayS has a great point too about morals w/o religion. I was not brought up with religion either but my parents instilled a set of values for me and those were reaffirmed in kindergarten and grammar school. Treat your fellow man as you would want to be treated is about as basic and clear as you can get. You don’t even have to go that far, as long as your behavior does not harm another person, you have succeeded in being a good person. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/so-you-guys-rememebr-hearing-about-the-chapel-right/19669)._
