I'll answer briefly, but we can go further if we need. Darwinian evolution, (macro evolution) has yet to be proven, therefor I don't agree that it is a scientific accurate assumption that we evolved from single celled amoeba. I do take, by faith, that God created the world, universe, time, space, matter because it says that in the bible. And I also it being backed up scientifically that there is order in the universe and points to an intelligent creator.

They know they pervert the bible. They pick and choose. And frankly they are very unintelligent, they do not follow proper hermeneutical guidelines to interpret the bible. Take it from a pastor...a pastor that has schooling...what they teach about God is ridiculous. (I edited out a swear word here)

Well, I like beer, and a cigar every great once in a while. I mentioned that I am a bartender as well, and sometimes I get an irritating drunk person driving me crazy and I swear when I get a mad at them. Not condoning it. Just being honest. I'm not a 'typical' pastor. I try to be real. I wasn't raised in a Christian house. And I don't pretend my crap doesn't stink. I just love Jesus and people and I try to just go from there. A lot is people think that it isn't good for me to tend bar, but the bible doesn't say alcohol is bad...it says that too much alcohol is bad.

Difficult, and good. Thanks for askin.

Yea, sorry that probably sounds weird. I was at a church service and I felt God move spiritually in me, I felt alive and confessed that I needed him...i suppose it's difficult to explain spiritual things. I felt release when believed in Him, I felt His love and affirmation.
