Just a thought - I hope I can communicate this idea in a way that makes some sense to somebody else!! It has struck me over & over during the last couple of years, but for some reason several times recently, that we stand on God's structure for His creation when we criticize or even claim it's not there. For example, the gay-rights activists have been given the advantage of being born from heterosexual relationships when they claim their right to other types of relationship. Atheists use perfectly designed lungs and hands with opposable thumbs like no other species to talk and write about why they believe there is no Designer to anything we see. We claim to be intellectually advanced when we find new knowledge about our universe with telescopes and advanced technologies; we are using the air and space as we find it to do so. It was there waiting for us to use already. The seeds of everything we know already existed before we found out about it, and yet we claim the right of creation, if you will pardon the term, when we figure out a new way to use it. In all our time here on earth (whether you believe 6,000+ years or 6,000,000+) we have not created one new atom of matter nor have we destroyed one. With all the creative ways we have of causing damage (i.e., murder, torture, CFC's) we have gotten rid of nothing. All we can do is change its form. It was all here in the Beginning and apparently will be here til the End, which we do not exercise control over. One of my favorite bumper stickers ever was "If you don't believe in Me, quit breathing My air." That sums up a lot of what I am trying to say. We use God's design for the family, for society, and then we want to claim it doesn't work or it is inferior in some way or needs to be added on to. If we were honest, we would recognize that every structure that works and has worked in the past was designed for us to use; we haven't come up with anything new. Not one atom's worth.
