This subject is extremely controversial.
One must approach it ever so careful.
In this life there are a few sides.
For simplicity sake let's call them tribes.
Now myself I am undoubtedly a Christian.
Although I now have a few burning questions.
By no uncertain terms am I saying
That my faith in God is swaying.

Seriously how old is our planet earth?
What's the date of its actual birth.
Four, five hundred years before Christ.
Or further back to when the dinosaurs were iced.
So now there's the Bible and there's evaluation.
Some how we must come to a conclusion.
Let's focus on the Bible first.
A book quenching many a spiritual thirst.

This is what we Christians live by.
It teaches us to praise and worship God in the sky.
The word tells us of how the earth was created.
And each creature to its purpose mated.
Then God made man.
This was the final touch to His master plan.

Then there is evolutionary process.
Please don't say nonsense.
Scientists burrow all over the world like moles.
Finding fossils some broken some whole.
They in all their wisdom named them dinosaurs.
Creatures so big they wouldn't fit in the Arc's doors.
Irrelevant what names man gives these creatures.
Scientists believe in them like preachers.

Ok so on both sides there is evidence.
Which will eventually take precedence?
If I may give my humble opinion.
I will try keep it in line with Religion.
I don't think either side is wrong.
Take a walk through time come along.
Logic tells me that God created earth.
Long before what we perceive to be its birth.

The word tells us God made night and day.
No in between no grey.
Then He separated land and sea.
Then He created creatures all free.
However how do we know what they looked like?
Maybe what He made was to His dislike.
Remember the last to be created was man.
Then there weren't places like Japan or Kazakhstan.

I just think that by the time we men could scribe.
It was to difficult to go back in time.
So we simply just started at the easiest point.
Not thinking how it would affect everyone's view point.
Causing all this confusion.
Forcing us for centuries to hunt for a solution.
In closing I just want to say.
In this life we must all find our own way.
