I am now sick.
Like horribly, terribly, sniffly sick.
Since I woke up at 3a.m. due to my lovely cold until present moment, I am suffering from the lovely cold virus.
Great.
Of course, I doubt it has anything to do with the class outing of which I was severely drenched, but more to the fact that I slept in shorts when it rained super heavily. And serious, two blankets weren't enough! April would beg to differ though, she can sleep in sleeveless-Ts and emerge unharmed while I am forced to endure the symptoms of a mild pneumonia.
So O levels MT are coming up.. and I haven't prepared yet. At least, not really. I mean, if I have to refer to a dictionary every other minute to translate a certain word, I'm pretty sure I'm anything but ready.
Anyway, today at church we had a service titled Creationism Vs Evolutionism. It was an interesting topic, as I sorta go through a normal debate with certain people *cough* over it. However, the facts given weren't quite substantive and the preacher tended to revert to how believing in Evolutionism is actually refuting God's word, and it is therefore wrong. I wanted more concrete evidence so I could shoot back at everyone, but to no avail... Most things are based on faith, I guess; and it's hard to convince non-believers on something they completely do not believe it.
STATEMENTS 1) Noah's ark existed, cause of the great flood. 2) God made the world in 6 days, no compromise, no gap in time in between. (sentence that to God, a day is thousand years is refuted by the Ten Commandments) 3) An ape-man skull was discovered, only to have the person who discovered it's son find a human skull dated way before that 4) The Earth is 6000 years old according to the bible 5) Carbon dating is only accurate in thousands of years 6) The formation of cliffs, of which actually give Scientists and Geologists the date of the Earth, has two theories: a) Scientists: gradual formation formed after millions of years b) Theologists: caused by a world-wide flood (Noah) 7) God created in order Theologists: a) Light b) Sky and Sea c) Land and Vegetation d) Sun, moon and stars e) Water creatures and birds f) Animals, mankind - Takes six days Scientists a) Space (always there... but who created space?) b) Big bang c) Land was there before sea d) Life started in sea (from where?) e) Evolution caused by survival of the fittest - Takes millions of years
This is interesting and all.. but I think I need to find a book on Creation Science and force myself to complete reading Darwin's Origin of Species before I can actually disprove it.
