Duane,
You said: No, we are a reflection of His mind.

Not to belabor a point, but if I am a reflection of God's mind, then what does it say about His mind if I don't believe in His existence?

You said: I do not believe in evolution of life because it does not fit the Bible account or scientific research.
Actually the Bible account predicts degeneration or de-eveloution which does agree with scientific research.


This is what irks me most, when a scientific principle (like the 2nd law of thermodynamics, referring to a system's total entropy) is misused to fit the creationist's argument.

Earth and the life upon it are not a closed system -- solar energy in part drives the system.

Furthermore, in any nontrivial system with energy driving the system, we will see --ubiquitously -- elements of order arising from disorder throughout the system. Hence snowflakes, lightning, crystals and living cells -- none of which require an intelligent program to achieve that order.
