The monkey believed in him first...

Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, cool movie. Dustin Hoffman is a legend.

The movie shows a little sock monkey who desperately wants a hug from a non-believing accountant. My daughter spoke with the wisdom from the Ancient of Days stating, the monkey believed in him first (referencing the accountant). Isn't that the truth? The monkeys believed in God who created man first before humanity started believing in the monkeys.

Evolution teaches that we evolved from the critters, from amoebas and then finally monkeys. I heard a preacher say once that if you believe first there was spineless slime… Then the slime critter formed a backbone and over millions of years eventually crawled out of the ocean and started climbing trees, hopping around or walking around. Then eventually the critter started to look like man and then eventually evolved into man… Well that takes more faith to believe in something as random as that than to believe in God as a creator.

Given evolution is supposedly to have happened by chance after all… and the fact that there are so many other possibilities in the universe etc…

Well

I can grasp the concept, but doesn't it seem a little far fetched, no pun intended? Universe… far fetched… You get the picture… I just find it really interesting that we can understand most of the inner workings of a butterfly and say for example the construction of it’s wings, yet we can’t believe that someone greater than ourselves created the universe? Think about it and let me know… Even if you think I’m just ignorant… Educate me…

Peace

Genesis 1: 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
