Sabbath points man to the true God

A recent letter promoting evolution had the title "The Clash Between Science and Religion is Unnecessary."

While the religion of Christ is not against science, it makes a stand against the theory of the evolutionists, and I believe God is using it to call attention to Him, as in the worldwide message predicted in Revelations 14:7: "Worship Him that made heaven and earth and the sea and the fountains of waters," which is almost a word for word quote from the Fourth Commandment in Exodus 20:11.

Since religion is such a serious matter and not enjoyable reading to many, we need something lighter for these folks.

I was thinking of a story for little kids that went like this: Once upon a time, an evil witch turned a prince into a frog whose DNA could be changed by the kiss of a lovely maiden. This does come to pass, and the frog turns back into a prince and all live happily ever after.

This is so similar to a story I found in some "scientific" evolutionist material given to me, which goes like this:

Once upon a time some animal whose great-great-grandfather was a fish, decided to return to the water (for whatever reason).

So he jumped in and liked it so much he stayed in the water and happily he met one of his own kind who is a female and likes the water better also. So they got together and their offspring at first had it rough because they had to hold their breath when they were born underwater and while nursing also. But nevertheless, this did not deter them and the gods of Time and Chance gave them fins and a perfect streamlined shape, etc…. And so they lived happily ever after, as whales in the vast oceans enjoying their new home (provided by the same gods) and their new DNA which keeps their children from climbing back onto the land like their ancestors did.

Did you know your ancestor was a fish? Had Jacques Cousteau started to grow fins during his lifetime? You be the judge.
