New Lights are not worth saving. Throw them in the deep end, let God sort them out. That is evolution.

You mixed two opposite arguments that dislike each other 😂 Hilaaarious!

Not entirely, that's a false dichotomy, God could be the force guiding evolution, or even be viewed as the potential for a being to evolve, God could simply be a force in the universe, like gravity, entropy, or inertia, but instead God could be the drive for a being to adapt and evolve, or god could be guiding the process. The idea that religion and science are separate or incompatible is outdated, especially if one worships science as their faith.

That idea of evolution isn't very common (in my experience). What I've seen is more the "earth become itself over billions and billions of years with the absence of God." There's a certain kind of evolution that I agree with (if I could remember it), but I have a feeling Bungie won't allow me to post it lol

Theirs also a possibility that our development as a species, or the existence of life on the planet was spurred on by extraterrestrial involvement. The Nazca lines in Peru are, in the least suspicious. The way life developed in some cases seem to show some form of order.

*shrug* That is your opinion, one I do not share. Yeah, there's weird stuff like that from around the world, but I don't attribute creation or development to it. Msg me if you want my belief; Bungie won't let me post it here. Good discussion, though; gotta love it when I can be part of a cool-headed conversation 🙂

Yeah, I don't entirely posit that as my opinion, moreso as an alternative to the one I listed above. Something I find interesting is that many books of faith describe spiritual encounters in a way that could easily be viewed as encounters with an advanced society. This, could inadvertently mean that these fantastical descriptions of angels, demons, and divas were actually describing highly advanced extraterrestrials. This doesn't mean I believe this, but I do think the possibilities are exciting.

Oh, lol, my bad! 😂 Sorry I thought it was your opinion
