[Tuesday]

i'm 'religious' (christian) and i've questioned my beliefs, even changed them some as i've gotten older and decided for myself what i thought made sense and was true. the reason that i can really know what i believe and why i believe it is because i've questioned it, all of it, and i know why and what i believe. i don't just blindly believe what my parents taught me, i have reasons of my own.

just a thought about the whole religion/science thing... i think these are two separate issues. i believe in evolution, and i also believe in God, and believe that he created everything. we can [attempt to] explain how he did it with science, but the beginnings of the universe have nothing to do with the existance of God, if you're just talking about the sequence of things and what technically happened. religion answers who did it. i'm a very scientific/logical person, but i still believe in God. i don't see why these two issues are debated as if they contradict each other. in my opinion, they don't.
