    Evolution or Creation?

    It's amusing to me that there are still those out there who, in spite of all the evidence, still try and deny the reality of natural selection and evolution.

    So fess up, have you joined the 21st century yet or are you still living in the dark ages?

    Creation or evolution... what's your view?

        Could it be both?

        Since there are no specifics in the bible?

          There is no answer........if you say evolution, you can keep going back to the tiniest microbe but those who believe in creation can just say 'well some being had to create that microbe'.

          If you believe in some creator, obviously no one can prove that either.

          Thus the whole statement on joining the 21st century is null and void =)

            actually it's not.. we evolved from a common ancestor.

                  evolution....though I remember getting in trouble in sunday school when I asked why it wasn't possible for things to have been created and then be allowed to evolve.

                      It was better when people worshipped the Sun. At least the sun is there you can see it, and without it there would be no life on earth.

                                Your poll should have one more option: We were created by other beings.

                                Can't leave that possibility out

                                  I evolved from ALF

                                  I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
                                  I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

                                    I think it's a combination of both. I don't believe everything from the Bible, it was written by man and has human error. I also don't believe everything scientists say, because they are also humans with error and a lot of what they say has missing pieces.

                                    Maybe I am just hopeful that there is a God, but if we evolved from apes, why are there no apes as intelligent as humans? That would be like a woman giving birth to a species more advanced than humans. Is that possible?

                                      Furious your understanding of evolution is simply appalling.

                                      We didn't evolve from modern apes. Rather, both humans and other modern primates have evolved from a common ancestor that lived millions of years ago. All species are subject to different selective pressures and this accounts for the divergence.

                                        Sounds like you haven't really gotten down the concept of evolution yet

                                        Can a woman give birth to a child more intelligent than herself? Yes. Can that child - if it's a girl - give birth to a more intelligent child than herself? Yes. Etcetera. Now, repeat this process endlessly.
                                        (and no, this is in no way taking into account even a small part of all factors in evolution, it's just an example to show how a dumb parent can ancestor a genious kid, in other words, a more advanced kid)

                                        Oh, and as for why there are no apes as intelligent as humans: there are. Humans. Why there are no other apes as intelligent as humans? Pure luck. One has to be the smartest, and it happens to be us.

                                          Ofcourse, by our current standards that common ancestor would be called an ape

                                                  To be honest, I was raised Catholic and never even heard of evolution until I was a teenager. So I really don't know much about it to consider myself an expert on the subject. I am not an expert on God or the Bible either... all I know, is that I believe there is something or someone, behind everything that has evolved. I plan on studying more about evolution and the theory of God... I find it fascinating but I like to form my own opinions and not just be convinced by what the Bible or science says. They are both biased, even with all the substantial evidence science has... I think there is more to it all.

                                                      some people should open their eyes
                                                      Isn't it embarrassing when you try to act all intelligent, and it blows up in your face? I suggest you open your eyes, and read a book. Evolved from chimps, hahahahah. Idiot.

                                                      Anyways. I really don't know. I'm no scientist, and i'm no theologist. I believe in some kind of god, i'm just not sure what. I also believe that evolution has played a great part in the way the world is. But other than that, i really don't care that much.

                                                        But then who or whatever that is will need a cause as well, and that cause will need a cause and so on... and on... and on. Logically you are getting yourself into a lot of hot water.

                                                        Also, you say you 'know' but how do you 'know'? How could you be so certain of something for which no evidence exists? Do you know something the rest of us don't?

                                                          Nothing is proven, the Evolution scienctists are as byass if not more byass than the christians. There is no hard facts here. They quote bullshit like "ohh the Chimp has 95% of the DNA of a human so we must of come from Chimps" Well they don't mention that RATS have 90-92% of the DNA of humans as well, (this is why we do so much testing on rats cause there DNA is so close to ours.

                                                          This subject comes down to belief and NOT facts, anyone that believes its a open shut case has done any research and has just sucked in all the bullshit they got force feed from school & tv.

                                                            So you're basically saying that careful studying of the information available is less valid than a 2,000 year old piece of text that has absolutely no proof for it's statements nor any foundation in logic?

                                                                    When the industrial revolution came, the amount of "coal" (or something) was so much that it covered all the trees, therefore making the white butterflies defenceless... A few years later, 99.9% of the butterflies were black.

                                                                    this only makes us that evolution is a part of survival, and that "the common ancestor" could have evolved into us to be able to see further (posture), to have his hands completely liberated (Standing up), to communicate (language), etc...

                                                                    that makes sense to me

                                                                    Comment

I have researched this before and I have never found a good explanation about how life can spontaneously spring from inorganic matter. From what I read it is a leap of faith...much like it is a leap of faith to believe in creationism.

I believe in some kind of god, i'm just not sure what. I also believe that evolution has played a great part in the way the world is. But other than that, i really don't care that much.

                                                                                  its far from "reality" and probably isn't true, but no one can prove it wrong. and for that reason, no one should ever take a 100% solid stance.

                                                                                      the fact that no one, not even my own mother standing in front of me physically, can prove to me that they exist. i could be an alien from a true reality dreaming of this thing called the "universe" made up of many planets and being alive on a particular planet as a human called earth. you can punch me shout at me, etc... but you can't prove it.

                                                                                      its far from "reality" and probably isn't true, but no one can prove it wrong. and for that reason, no one should ever take a 100% solid stance.
                                                                                      what you are saying has a point, but seems to be very farfetched
                                                                                      watched the matrix too many times?
                                                                                      but yes, this thought has crossed my mind as well

                                                                                              There is rather conclusive evidence of evolution, there is no evidence for a diety. If you are a fundementalist the earth has only been around a few thousand years and the fossil record is a fraud.

                                                                                              As Mark Twain said if the earth and the heavens were created within a week of each other a few thousand years ago why can we see light from stars that took 50,000 years to get here. That as from Mark Twain's rewrite of the bible, a good read.
