Evolution theory doesn't make sense.

79

By Onusonus

Of the many fields of science which I am in agreement with there are a few questionable things which always seem to take the forefront of the political and social infrastructure. Such controversies have arisen throughout the pages of history which some modern thinkers feel tend to stiefel the progress of human development in this most important arena of education. But I see an alterior motive attached to the gallant assertions of our atheist cousins in the homosapien genus.

The progression of thought

The theory of evolution leads the average person to believe that a species evolves slowly over millions of years, yet there is a fatal flaw in this design. We have this unreliable method of figuring out just how old something or someone is through the use of carbon dating technology. So when archaeologists dig up something that has no possible way of figuring out an estimated date of origin they use carbon dating as a means of backup in order to create the illusion of the modern day all knowing answers for everything science. This is a clever example of scientists using their assumptions to dictate their conclusions. (which is ironic because atheist scientists accuse religious people of doing the same thing.)

It does seem better, for some reason, for them to declare that this object in our possession is twenty five million years old! when in reality they don't have a clue. So when they find an unidentified body they naturally assume, based on the unrecognizable style of clothing, and primitive hand tools, it correlates with their carbonated shot in the dark.

Now we have writings which date back to 3000 BC. The first written language known as Cuneiform, invented in Sumer.

So we have the slow and methodical development of the human mind getting smarter and smarter over millions of years with no real proof of written language. Then all of a sudden people learn to write, and then over a period of a mere seven thousand years people begin to build large societies, and work together in agriculture. Then cities are built, large complex buildings, and advancements in knowledge of metals and alloys explode everywhere, weapons get more and more complex, we go from throwing spears to building nuclear warheads.

Transportation advances carry mankind across continents in years, months, weeks, and down to hours, even to the point where people have journeyed on space missions. Communication goes from primitive Epistles, to letters, books, E-mail, and twitter to anyone everywhere.

The exponential growth of the human mind over the last seven thousand years blows the notion of slow multi million year development of human thought out of the water, unless by some unexplainable theory, a tiny piece of their minds suddenly spurted out an extra five inches of nerve endings that magically turned on the lights for everyone, everywhere, and for no reason at all, they were all able to sit down with a chisel and stone and start writing poetry in the form of religious assertions.

Survival of the fittest?

This is an expression which was originally made by Herbert Spencer, But the entire concept poses a large contradiction. My question is, why does natural selection work in favor of the human species despite it's overwhelming frailties?

In nature we can see several examples of the strong surviving. The weak members of the herd are left behind to be devoured by predators. In most of the animal kingdom a baby is born, and within moments it is up and running, and ready to fend for its self on a level that a human baby could never hope to accomplish.

In contrast the average homosapien infant doesn't learn how to walk for an entire year. And during that period, and for many more years they are at the complete mercy of the parents. If they are left alone for any small period of time there is no possibility of them being able to do a single thing to maintain their own life, none whatsoever.

Given the fact that humans are born without speed, agility, or natural predatory or defensive abilities, it is quite the phenomena that out of shear coincidence, or divine providence, the human race ever had a chance at being among the elite of the "natural selection" process.

so how is it that humans who supposedly evolved from Apes, during infancy, have such a big contrast in their abilities? A baby human could never do this.


 

Primordial ooze

How is it possible that the Earth slowly comes into existence, and all life comes from some puddle of goo that was struck by lightning, and somehow all the cells in all the ponds of goo in the world grew into a bunch of diverse creatures, and yet nothing comes close to possessing the kind of brain activity that humans do?

Are we to believe that humans are so randomly fortunate to have been struck by lightning at the right angle with the exact amount of force it takes in order for us to have come out with advanced bodies and minds, with the capability to think, build, hunt, communicate, and so forth, while other species on the Earth advance no further than that of a dung beetle. In my opinion, it seems only logical in order for us to maintain an evolutionary standard of thinking, everything should have a frontal lobe, and all manner of different species should have been competing with us in the space race.

The religion of Evolution

The more people I encounter who subscribe to evolution as a plausible explanation for the beginning of the human species, the more I see common ground between atheists and the religious. The underlying aspect is the vehement defense of their beliefs, and the need to debunk outside ideologies in order to prove that they are right. There are those who go to great lengths acting as apologists in defense of their faith, all the while mocking, and ridiculing any naysayers.

Lastly the most perplexing of all is the assertion of moral superiority. For some reason this matters a great deal to the Atheist who is trying to convert the believer. Why should morality mean anything to us if we just came from a pile of goo, and are destined to become nothing more than food for worms?

In my mind Evolution theory is nothing more than militant atheism in disguise. It is being pushed into the schools by atheists because they know, despite the fact that there is no plausible application for this theory, it is a damaging antithesis to the foundations of religion.

I believe in evolution, though I do not believe that we came from apes. There is indisputable scientific evidence that supports evolution. I think that what you are saying is that evolution = believing we came from monkeys. That is not the definition of evolution. I believe that we came from Adam and Eve, just like we read in the Bible. We know that man is the last thing that God created before He rested. The Earth is very old, and has probably been around for a lot longer than most people think. The Bible says the Earth was created in 7 days. However, the correct translation was that it was created in 7 periods. We have no idea how long it took to create the Earth, only that it was not all done at once. God has many interesting creations on the planet at this time, even ones that we have not discovered yet. There surely were other creations on the Earth before Adam and Eve, as we can see from the fossil evidence of dinosaurs and "cave men". What I am saying is that you can still believe in science and not give up your religious beliefs. Correctly understood, science and religion support each other, not contradict each other. God is the master scientist, the creator of heaven and earth. It has not been revealed to us exactly how he did it, but I believe we will find out one day. The scriptures tell us that there are many "mysteries" that God will one day reveal to us. Details about the creation of the Earth and the origin of man are definitely a mystery.

Jeff it's impossible to believe in the theory of evolution and God at the same time. We know that the bible is true because the bible says it's true, and as I said previously in this sentence, the bible is true. Don't you see your logic eats its self?

Now on a serious note I can definately agree with the fact that science agrees with religion on most sapects, however it is clear that the standard school fed concept of moral relativism ie.(there's no such thing as truth) is quite contrary to the ongoing quest for truth that every God fearing citizen is admonished to seek after. hence the theory its self can be altered and expanded upon while at the same time leaving a path of spiritual destruction, and religious oppression in it's wake.

What I find difficult about evolution is when you ask why is it that some animals (e.g. catfish, lungfish, etc)haven't evolved for millions of years. Of course, the evolutionists tell you that it is because they eat crap - this isn't good enough for me...I'd like a more concise answer and it's hard getting one....

So eating crap is whats held them back all this time. And just think, if humans do it, they die. Wierd.

If evolution was true, then all life originated in the sea. Since the sea had millions more yrs of evolving before life got onto land how come the most intelligent life isn't in the sea,i.e. cities of merfolk should be dominating this planet. Not ground dwellers.

Interesting point. It just shows how incredulous the theory is.

I have to agree with Jeff on this one. I don't see any reason why believing in God or supporting the Big Bang Theory have to be exclusive. A day to God could be millions of years to us, there is no way to really be sure, so who is to say that God didn't set Natural Selection in motion? The concept of Survival of the Fittest makes logical sense and God is a logical being. We are undergoing that concept right now on a smaller level. We fall victim to disease and ignorance and it affects generation after generation. We're not the same people we were a thousand years ago.

I don't fall privy to believing that a little piece of DNA kept progressing and taking steps to eventually become a human but I do believe that God was initiating the process and I do believe it was indeed a 'Process.'

Science, instead of debunking faith, only adds to it. Each scientific explanation shows that every natural law, every observations, every motion and force, has an extremely sound structure and purpose. There is a rhyme and reason to everything. Everything fits together so perfectly that I find it impossible to believe that that state of perfection could be created by mere coincidence and happenstance. Accidents do happen, but accidents that can create a universe of precise numbers and formulas? All the greatest scientists of the past believed in a higher power and I think it's because they had a true grasp on the perfection that exists.

Very well said Taylee, Perhaps I should change the theme to specify Darwinism, and the evolution of the human species.

I wish to assert the fact that man suddenly sprang out of the dirt as a man and did not evolve from some other type of animal. I am also in agreement with the corelation that science and religion share with one another.

lol you guys should hear yourselves.

Literally what you are all saying in various different combinations of words is " I don't understand the scientific explanation, therefore God did it."

evolution has as much valid evidence to its name as the fact that we live in a heliocentric solar system does, and that gravity exists.

good luck.

Atheist, Thanks for stopping by. Do you believe in aliens?

Atheist, please, answer me, what came first DNA or protein? If you know it, explain scientificaly. If you can't, which is very likely to hapen, than I'm sorry, but you are the one who don't understand the scientific explanation... :)

I love this hub! It makes me feel warm inside knowing that no matter what you say, people will agree with you! Just like nazism... or throwing intellectuals in the gulag. Yep... a warm, fuzzy feeling right in my manipulative core...

Not a problem, I'm glad I can bring you to the light, because it always makes me feel warm and fuzzy to know that I possess an inherent moral superiority over the religiousless. ;)
