There are hints that natural selection is the only logical answer to all these things, but there also are a few gaps in the theory and a few unexplained things. I can understand that many people can not imagine that at some point, due to certain molecules simply existing and forming itself, single celled organisms started to appear which then mutated and eventually we popped up  People simply also have to admit that it is kinda weird that chimps and humans have 99.4% _EXACT_ matching DNA sequences. Coincidence? Not really.. but OBVIOUSLY a chimp will not suddenly get a mutated baby that looks just like a damn human... mutations happen in tiny amounts, a few ten or maybe hundred changes in DNA sequences which control the actual general species.
BTW, medicin also makes witnessing evolution hard, because we simply fix the mutations that happen or do not let natural selection take its cause. |
good, intelligent answer
what bothers me about this intelligent design or creationism, is that they don't have to give 1 shred of evidence, but they still call the truth
last week, there was this little report about intelligent design, and you had a US biology teacher explaining to his pupils, that "animals have those, not because of camouflage, but because got made them that way, so humans can enjoy the pretty colors"
OR
"lions don't have claws for hunting, they got them, while still in Eden, to be able to climb trees"
I mean jesus christ, that's a science teacher say this to 5 year olds
