<< It seems I left plenty of room for misunderstanding. God does know what is coming. Because something is random doesn't mean God cannot know it in advance. Prayers can change things. I wish more had prayed that the hurricane would not be a killer. Prayer can change future events. >>

You say your god created the Earth, including it's weather, knows what is going to happen in advance, but didn't cause the hurricane? I don't misunderstand you. You are very confused. You say that he had the power to stop it, but chose not to because not enough prayers were said. How many prayers does it take? A thousand, a million, a billion? If I stood by and watched one child drowning in a swimming pool because nobody pleaded with me to help it, would you honor me? Your god would have had to watch 10,000+ people die a horrible death, and that's what you want me to believe in. No thanks.

I'm not going to discuss evolution with you anymore until you understand it at an elementary level, and come up with thoughtful questions. The ones you bring up here have been addressed many times in the past. You need to get your nose out of those creationist books and look at some real science for a change. Try Gould for example.

You also need to stop misquoting Hawkings. Show me where he stated that the Universe happening by chance is a mathematical impossibility.
