We have actually witnessed big bangs.
We have proven the theory to be possible.
A theory is a tested hypothesis, so religion is a hypothesis.
We've proven the theory to be possible, but we haven't proven it to be true. Of course religion is a hypothesis. That's kind of the whole point. At any rate, I'm can't really argue against you because I believe in the big bang.

It is very unlikely that there was Adam and Eve. They might've not reproduced. They might've not been able to. Life spans were very low back then. There were countless diseases they would've been subject to. Even if they reproduced the chances of survival of the human race would still be next to nothing. If they are only a couple of thousand of a certain animal then they would most likely die off without intervention.
Actually, if you take the Bible as fact (or at least some of it), then life spans were originally very long. Supposedly, there were people who lived for hundreds and hundreds of years. Also, the world would have been much more "intact" back then. There would have been far less pollution, the ozone layer wouldn't have had holes in it, etc. But you're right, it's scientifically improbable. Basically the only way you can justify the "Adam and Eve" theory is through religion, by saying that God created them to be perfect or that he gave them his blessing, or something like that. I have to admit that I'm Christian, and even I'm skeptical of this theory....

For me I just think its more probabl that the world was created by a God, and not just some small atom that came from who-knows-where, blew up and formed the earth by some random chance.

1. Bible times are not to be taken literally no clue what they consider a year...

2.You are forgetting that there were no anti-biotics meaning there was no sanitation until 1840(ish) So the world was much more dangerous back then

Here's an interesting observation on the Adam and Eve/we're all a bunch of inbreds topic. It states in the bible that Adam and Eve have a few children, but 2 are key. Cain and Abel. Cain kills Abel because of jealousy and is sent away by God (you can find this in Genesis 4:15-16) When Cain left, he went to a different land and took up for himself a wife and had children. Now how did that happen?

Apparently Adam and Eve were the first people, but not the only ones that God made, according to the Bible. The Bible covers their lives, but it is obvious that others existed in other lands as well.

But heres a better one for ya, if you believe the Bible is true then you believe in Noahs ark and the flood. Technically we are all decendents from Noah and his 3 sons and their wives if we believe that story to be true. Just food for thought... So I guess we are all a bunch of inbreds...

That cain might of found Eve but I get your point. Really interesting take on this. Welcome to the forums, I hope you will continue posting here.

How was God created? Matter cannot be destroyed nor created.

Exactly
Big bang, because unlike God it is not a simple superstion that dates from humanities period as a primitive society.

1. That's true. Like I said, I think it's unlikely that we all came from just two people. Cyan made a good point:

Here's an interesting observation on the Adam and Eve/we're all a bunch of inbreds topic. It states in the bible that Adam and Eve have a few children, but 2 are key. Cain and Abel. Cain kills Abel because of jealousy and is sent away by God (you can find this in Genesis 4:15-16) When Cain left, he went to a different land and took up for himself a wife and had children. Now how did that happen?

Apparently Adam and Eve were the first people, but not the only ones that God made, according to the Bible. The Bible covers their lives, but it is obvious that others existed in other lands as well.
That seems waaaay more likely to me.

2. True, but when God created the world, everything was originally perfect, supposedly. Again, I think the possibility that God created more than just two people (though Adam and Eve may have been the first) is a lot more likely. The way my mind works is through science, and the facts about life spans, diseases, sanitation, incest, etc. don't really allow me to totally believe in the Adam/Eve theory.

But heres a better one for ya, if you believe the Bible is true then you believe in Noahs ark and the flood. Technically we are all decendents from Noah and his 3 sons and their wives if we believe that story to be true. Just food for thought... So I guess we are all a bunch of inbreds...
In a way, I guess we are. Then again, Noah's son's wives probably weren't closely related, so maybe the genetic defects wouldn't have been quite as obvious as if we all came from Adam and Eve.

...Or maybe not all of the Bible is truth, and is just meant to teach lessons rather than facts :p
