Your mouth is a foot long?

Oh and Besides from the Banana which by chance (pun intended) happened to be the best suited example of Creatonism. But clearly, foreseeing our modern times God would naturally incorporate a cellphone, mp3player and web browser into it as-well.

I always thought that christianity was about having faith that god existed not trying to prove it? maybe this is because when you try to prove it like old matey whos on about coca cola in space you end up giving the argument that he does not exist and if he does then he answers to a higher power. Also why is he dipicted as a man? Think about it if he's a man then his input into giving life is nowhere near as much as a womans(minutes compared to 9 months). and if we are made in his image then we would surely share the same type of attributes so why would he spend 7 days making life? So maybe god does exist and he just started the universe with a big bang(excuse the pun) which resulted in Mother nature getting nocked up and she took over with cultivating life on the planet with evolution and because god had an input we look like him/her. Also by saying god has always existed and your argument being that its just true then that argument is equal with that the universe has always existed. Difference being that I have never seen god but i have seen stars and planets in the night sky and if god is everywhere does that apply to the other planets and stars if so then god and the universe are one as he inhabits all meaning that we are living inside of god making us part of god (ive confused myself am i god now?). Wow look how ive just used irrelevent logic to prove that im part god or in god or possibly god and ive created you all in my head, maybe. How do you like them apples. And get this as a kicker i believe in god i just think your an idiot jonathon and that religion (or infatic belief in a story book) does not make the slightest bit of sense but until someone proves where the universe came from and i mean really prove i am happy to accept that it could have been made by a higher power. why not?
