People may argue that God is creator of mankind and blah blah.. or that science is the only answer, they are facts, it involves no god blah blah.
I believe that god didn't create humans specifically so we could be great and rule the world. God in my opinion made science, almost like how people program today, you write a script, it could be small but do millions of things.. like you can program a controller to make something move right, it's probably gonna be a short ass code but you can move right for a million miles with that short code. I don't get why people say that it's either God, no science, or Science and no god. It makes more sense to be both.
I believe in science as much as a scientist does.. the big bang, we don't know what it is or how it happened but exactly. How did that thing come into existence, how did it blow up, how did it make all these stars, solar systems, galaxy's etc.. The only reasonable answer is God, the elements in our universe, did they just pop up out of absolute dead space, where nothing mixed.. no, there had to have been something helping.
My last paragraph

. God more than likely doesn't watch over us or guide us through life, we.. factually evolved from the monkey or some other monkey type of creature (excuse my ignorance). And they probably evolved from some 4 leg creature, and the 4 leg creature from a land-sea animal, them from fish, fish from water, water from space, space from the big bang, the big bang from........ Only logical answer must be God or a God-like character.
You seem to have Diest beliefs, You should read up on them.

They generally state that there is a diety, it created the universe, but is not actively involved in it now. It may watch things develop, but has little interest in individual happenings or creatures.
They do not believe in any reglious organizations or writings and do not believe that God ever "handed down his word" .
They just believe, after natural observation, that something started it all, and refuse or can not comphrend that something started from nothing.
Faith in a diety should not be influenced by "if you believe in one non proven fact, you must believe in all of them" So if I choose to be a Diest, it does not require me to sit on Santa's lap every year.
I personally believe that something started it all and It's is not concerned with my personal life.
The current theories on the universe require the application of Physical laws to make sense and explain our understanding of the start of the universe. How could those laws have been in place before the start??
I believe something created the laws before the start to allow it all to happen.
My beliefs do not require me to acknowledge the exisitance of the Loch Ness Monster or Santa Claus to justify them.
And I've gone through this debate many times a couple of years ago. I won't be doing it all again. My beliefs do not compel me to ask for acceptance of them from others.
