all this evolution thing is bull shit ..........it never happened. the fossil record never confirmed the evolutionist theory...........

[TheHonestTheist]

It's pretty obvious that God "Let" things occur naturally, not only from the Genesis narrative that repeats the word "Let" like a mantra, but also from science. There is no contradiction, the two narratives, from God's word and God's works, fit just fine. It's a pity the church doesn't just accept science, it's about time they did, then we can get on with some real progression in thought, rather then wasting our time on this young earth anti-science rubbish.

I agree that a reading of Genesis implies what is known today , loosely, as evolution.

However - I disagree that "this is evolution."

Evolution is a crass ideation and lie perpetrated by the perverse.

There is no evidence at all that Life is of naturalistic causation and that in itself violates sceintistic materialism - because it operates not by evidence but sheer presumption.

Evolution is the denial of INTENT without a shred of evidence in support of that denial.

@1Volans evolution is common sense. the theory of evolution is so simple and so obvious that it should have been thought of way before darwin.

to clear things up.

evolution

there is natural variation in any population take humans. black white ect

natural pressures influence the success on the population based on physical traits. lets pretend the sun got harsher and started killing off all the white people

those that are left are black.

they pass on the black gene. so the new population is black

@prebirth91 > "theory of evolution should have been thought of way before darwin". I'm so sorry, but you're wrong. Atheism tends to miseducate the public about what Evolution is. I would not encourage anyone to trust the cult of Atheism for legit science. Contrary to many assumptions, evolutionary theory did not begin in 1859 with Charles Darwin or The Origin of Species. The first systematic presentation of evolution was put forth by the French scientist Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1774-1829),

to continue, that nobody is deceived by Atheist mis-information, @prebirth91 > "theory of evolution should have been thought of way before darwin," It was. "Aristotle classified all living organisms hierarchically in his great scala naturae or Great Chain of Being, with plants at the bottom, moving through lesser animals, and on to humans at the pinnacle of creation, each becoming progressively more perfect in form." My quotes are merely Evolutionary web site snippets.

@prebirth91 > "theory of evolution should have been thought of way before darwin". Actually, to be more precise, you should not credit Charles Darwin at all for developing the "theory of evolution," more appropriately, Darwin merely advanced his own "theory of Natural Selection" which attempts to explain the phenomena of evolution. Evolution itself is a fact, but by which process evolution occurs in the fossil record, is still a matter of contentious debate and strife among some circles.
