I used to believe in God but as I got more and more into astronomy and cosmology, my belief in him ceased to exist and thanks to that me and my friend got into an argument whether divine creation was real or not.
“If only evolution made us better.” I had said, I don’t really remember why I said it. But as the words came out of my mouth he friend looked at me. He gave his opinion but what he was saying was basically the same:
“God is real, read the bible.”
“The bible is just a story book.” And that statement that I made caused him to spit out “facts” that prove god is real.
He told me God created the world in 6 days and he kept telling be to “just have faith”, `so I gave my side of the argument and said real facts of how the Earth came to be, facts about the theory of evolution but he still wouldn’t budge.
I gave more proof but now he looked like he wanted so hit me so I walked away, as I was walking, I expected a sharp pain to shoot up my spine but all I felt was a light tap on my shoulder. He told to me to believe in what I want to believe and he walked away briskly.
