I am having a lot of email issues with the email address I use to log into Tumblr. As such, I have basically moved my entire tumblr here.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Over a hundred years ago...

Over a hundred years ago...:

Over a hundred years ago, a university student found himself seated in a train by the side of a person who seemed to be a well-to-do peasant. He was praying the rosary and moving the beads in his fingers.

“Sir, do you still believe in such outdated things?” asked the student of the old man.

“Yes I do. Do you not?” asked the old man.

The student burst out into laughter and said, “I do not believe in such silly things. Take my advice. Throw the rosary out through this window and learn what science has to say about it.”

“Science? I do not understand this science? Perhaps you can explain it to me,” the man said humbly with some tears in his eyes.

The student saw that the man was deeply moved. So to avoid further hurting the feelings of the man, he said, “Please give me your address and I will send you some literature to help you on the matter.”

The man fumbled inside pocket of his coat and gave the boy his visiting card. On glancing at the card, the student bowed his head in shame and became silent.

On the card he read: “Louis Pasteur, Director of the Institute of Scientific Research, Paris, France.”

So I was the one who asked about wether you believe in creationism or evolution... And I just thought I would let you know that we didn't evolve from monkeys, but both humans and monkeys evolved from a common ancestor. Not trying to be mean just letting you know for future reference :)

Okay. I really don’t know much about that so thanks for the info.

Do you believe in 6 day creationism or evolution? Just curious to know.

Tue, 10 May 2011 22:33:32 -0500

Personally, I’m not really sure. I think that the way God measures time is outside of the way we measure time. Also I don’t believe in evolution at all. If we evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?

Hii Amanda,
I Have just read your reply. Thank you so much. That has been a big help i will definitely start doing that. Since i asked you the question God has answered me in a way and has given me some peace over it all.
What you said about realising what God wasn't calling you for struck me, because at the back of my mind i feel he is calling me to the Religious life and in doing that i have to give up everything, I have to die to self and that is scary. I feel that is why i have been finding it really hard to pray, because i have been fighting the calling and i know only in prayer will i get the answer and maybe the answer that i don't want but already know. So please could you pray for me and i will pray for you. By the way i know i have said this already but your blog is beautiful :)

Godbless you x
Your Sister in Christ
