This thread does raise a question though. How do muslims (and christians) deal with Darwin and the proven existence of dinosaurs 200 million years BEFORE man?
How does religion deal with science? Do they choose to ignore it?

"True" according to your faith Elham, but please respect that I am not a muslim or Christian and for me, it is not "true" if it cannot be scientifically proved.
It is "true" because you have FAITH.

Well I never wish to cause offence so I suppose I have to accept (by your rules) that you can call MY STORY stupid, but I am not allowed to call YOUR STORY stupid.
Nice.

the difference is what you believe is just your view..like anything in your life. what i told you in my post was from my holly book. it is much more than a view to me. that is why i said your calling it stupid may offend some people here. whatever..it is impossible to agree on such a thing.

Well I wont argue any further points on this as I don't want it to get this thread locked. Perhaps it's not such a good idea to post topics like this, as it's quite impossible to avoid getting into religious debate.
It this website rules state we should not talk about religion, then why does it deem to be "OK" so long as we don't argue about it? This implies that MY views are ignored out of respect to religions.

I cannot speak for muslims or christians but certainly the biblical story of creation is not totally against science. As long as you accept that the '7 days' is metorphoric and that not everything should be taken totally literally then the two accounts can co-exist quite happily. And there really is no reason not to accept it as metorphoric as the cration story itself talks about events that were before mankind and there could not be observed by man.
As for Darwin, he himself was a practicing christian and never saw his theories as contradicticing biblical accounts. I think the one thing that sets human beings apart from the rest of the creatures on our planet is the ability to make reasoned decisions - other animals exist by insinct (often very developed instinct but still instinct) whereas we are able to make rational choices. Biblical stories say that man was created to oversee the existing animals and dinosaurs could therefore pre-exist humans without any conflict.
