@poldertalk Darwin, My Life and Letters Vol. 1, page 210, letter to Mr bentham admits, When we decend into details we can prove that no one species has changed ( i.e. We cannot prove that a single species has changed); nor can we prove that the supposed changes are beneficial, which is the ground work of the theory. Nor can we explain why some species have changed and others have not.

@ktorch Christianity is a (confession) not a profession. And if Lincon didn't know that the Christian faith was simple and the thoughts of the secular system, complicated and confusing. He was very ignorant of Christianity. 2 Corth. 11.3 "But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent bequiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ."
@Howie47 2 Corinthians 11:3 But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
In 2000 Years of Disbelief by James A. Haught, Lincoln is mentioned on pages 125 through 127. From the material presented it would seem that Lincoln as a young man was an avid anti-christian and most likely an atheist. Some selections from Haught: John T. Stuart, Lincoln's first law partner: "He was an avowed and open infidel, and sometimes bordered on Atheism..."
True natural selection is found to be less and less capable but the defenders of the Church of Darwin fight hard for the bottom up process. Specified complexity falsifies Neo-Darwinian evolution but that does not stop the Darwin Church from allowing no intelligence. You are not allowed to think in teleological terms as the Church rules the science academy with an iron fist. Hopefully that fist is not a specified complexity because the natural selection can't do much...
@rusty2029 That's why many evolutionary biologist are romancing "Evo-Devo". The mechanics already present in the genome and cell, can explain the development of new species. Those mech. don't have to be explained by Evo Biology, because they're part of Abiogenesis.
Well lucky for the world of Science and progress Darwin rejected such misgivings, in favor of the evidence he'd meticulously gathered through his life, and witnessed first hand on the famous voyage. Darwin's own wife was a Christian, and it his wish that his Theory be published after his death because of the rifts he knew it would cause.
It wasn't until Wallace working upon the same Theory independently that spurred Darwin into action to publish his work first.
No way we came from a single cell. Macro evolution cannot be observed at all. It was made to go along with Charles Lyell fairy tale of "millions of years" (Which has grown to billions and soon trillions probably). Lyell admitted to inventing the "millions and billions" of years theory because of one reason- he hated Christians and wanted to discredit the Bible
@jdigitalseven lol that must be the reason! The Earth is billions of years old because every scientist hates Christians - including the Christian one's. If the Earth was trillions of years old then it would be older than the Universe.
So do you want to think a little more on that one?
@ScottishAtheist Amazing, the universe has aged a few billion in the last 50 yrs. or so - by 2020 it may be trillions.....silly atheist think it all came from nothing anyway.
@ScottishAtheist It is impossible for the Earth to be billions of years old...The sun is approximately 865,000 miles in diameter. It is about 93 million miles from earth. However, 5 million tons of fuel per second burns from the sun. The sun's diameter is shrinking at the rate of 5 feet per hour or 8.3 miles per year...93 million/ 8.3=11,204,819...so in JUST 11 million years the sun would be touching the Earth *Sniff Sniff* poor you for believing a LIE...G-D Bless
@eddogky "The sun's diameter is shrinking at the rate of 5 feet per hour or 8.3 miles per year."
LOL Utter garbage!! Where do you get this crap from? The Sun has never touched the Earth in it's history. The sun has remained fairly stable in size since measurements began. The mass converted to energy inside the sun is a tiny, tiny fraction of it's total mass % wise over its lifetime.
When the sun uses up its hydrogen fuel in about 5 billion years, then it'll expand. Read up some more. Fail ;_:
@ScottishAtheist EXACTLY...it's common knowledge that the sun is shrinking...not to metion that common SENCE will tell you that if it's using it's fuel it HAS to shrink...
@eddogky There's no point arguing. You can look at information about the sun on various sites. 5 million tons a second sounds a lot, but the amount of mass it converts to energy during fusion (the stuff it actually loses, and what we feel as heat and see as light) is a FRACTION of that - and is a TINY fraction of its overall mass.
The size of the sun will not change in any meaningful way over its lifetime until about 5 billion years hence, when the Hydrogen is used up, and starts to fuse Helium.
I like your uploads just fine. Keep them coming. Also, the brainless, ignorant one provides many fun-filled moments of hilarious comic relief. Did you hire him to do that? :D
Factual error: Darwin went to Cambridge for 3 years. Henslow was also never Darwin's teacher, as it is implied. He also never rejected Henslow's faith, he was in "CHRIST'S COLLEGE" for pete's sake.
"Even Darwin's homie-back in 1840s-rejected darwins work!"
WOW NO WAY! Maybe cuz they didn't have sufficient evidence to prove evolution AT THE TIME. Does that mean the theory is wrong SOLELY because HENSLOW said so? ROFL!
Why do you upload such rubbish Berean? I'd be embarrassed.
@YourBrainOnReligion Besides Darwin, other famous students of Henslow include Berkeley, Lowe, Miller, and Babington. Henslow founded the Cambridge University Botanic Garden in 1831 wiki John_Stevens_Henslow
The point is that this was over 150 years ago and science has accumulated unimaginable amounts of data and evidence since that time. Before Darwin even died, they had compelling evidence for him to even feel comfortable to write Origin of Species.
Moreover, Darwin wasn't responsible for evolution, he was simply responsible for figuring out natural selection. But even if Darwin never figured that out - someone else would have as it's simply obvious when you understand biology.
@YourBrainOnReligion Imagination is what evolution is all about. The basic problem is how non-living chemicals became alive without information input.
That is not evolution Berean, that is abiogenesis. Evolution extends no further than explaining how species diverge - that's it man.
Abiogenesis is a process that's pretty well understood. There is no "information", there are simply chemicals which cause chain reactions. But the short answer is, all living things are made of the same building blocks. These building blocks (cells) can ONLY originate from an earlier cell. Even if we cannot DO it, it is obvious life HAD to come from one cell.
