Kidding? Why would you say that? Are you saying that you have proof that the big bang really happened? Are you saying you have proof that evolution occured? I would tell you to go ahead and show me that proof, but I know you couldn\'t find any. If there were proof of those things, religion vs science arguments would be non-existant. Everyone would already know the truth.
The idea of the big bang and evolution is no more correct than the idea of there being a god. The big bang and evolution are just theories, educated guesses, of where we came from. Just like religion is no more than a way people made sense of the world around them in olden times (in a non-believer\'s point of view, anyways). Yes, we know more about the universe, science, and mathematics than the people did in Bible times, but that does not mean our conclusions are more correct. We might be trying so hard to discover an alternative answer to who we are and where we came from, that we are looking over the obvious -- the thing that has been known to the world for centuries now -- that there is a god. I\'m not saying that you have to believe in God, or that people who don\'t believe in god are just ignorant, or anything like that. I\'m just saying that it is a huge fallacy on your part to think that your non-religious beliefs are so much more accurate than the beliefs of people who believe in god.
