Is there any tangible evidence that supports creationism?

Question

Are the amount of species on Earth just slowly declining as some become extinct? Since we would have started with a finite amount of species, this would logically be correct (in theory of course). Did God put more species in the mix at different points, because we were obviously not here when dinosaurs roamed the Earth? It just doesn't make any sense.

Answer 1

No. There is no tangible evidence for anything the bible says. But lack of evidence doesn't matter if you practice psuedoscience. That's why ESP and hypnosis must also be true.

Answer 2

Are species declining? Yes, some have gone and become extinct. And thanks to preservationists many species that should be extinct due to changing environmental conditions are still around, such as the elephant or the American Bison. How do you know there are no dinosaurs today, or that fossil evidence is dated correctly. Why do you believe what man has told you, but reject what God has told us.

Why can a man have more faith in a man (who is by nature sinful, thus deceiving), then God (who is holy-perfect and righteous)?

There are so many animals why does it matter if a few are supposedly extinct, for there are many I am sure you have never heard of or been taught about (because they do not comply with Naturalism). I know because I studied Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences (Biological Option) in college and one of the most fascinating to me is a mole in New Zealand that "swims" through sand, or how about the Wood Elephant (looks like a dwarfed version of an African Elephant), it lives deep in the Congo and has only been photographed, never seen; there is also a newly discovered species of cow that was found in either the Burmese or Tibetan forests (I forget which one) that also has never been seen or photographed. If tomorrow someone discovered a mammal with eight legs, I'm sure that those who support evolution would find an explanation for that (as they have for Marsupials, which are completely different from other animal types, and lemurs, which only dwell on Madagascar and are unlike any other primate).

Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

Answer 3

I'm not here to offend or piss off anyone, but to explain you what I think: I don't believe there are any tangible evidence that supports creationism. Just because our current scientific knowledge and "theory" are limited, it doesn't mean we'd give all the credit to "G-O-D" or which ever party claims/ backs the "Creationism" theory.

1. If "G-O-D" actually created everything, he would do it in front of us and tell us how he wants to name each individual species.

2. Science is science, intelligent design is religious thoughts based on a specific/ popular/ dominate religion in this country. It doesn't not apply or appear in many other countries (specially developed countries).

3. Countless living organisms are continuing to mutate and change slowly at a genetic level. Just because we "stop mutate" or seems like we're not changing, doesn't mean we're not envolving. Slightlest change in our genetic information can cause significant evolution turning point. I studied science and believe in sciences, therefore I believe there is no such thing as "creation." My answer is based on science, not my religious belief of any kind.

4. The only reason if species are declining is because of corporate greed and careless American factories/ companies/ timber-mine-coal-energy industries controling our government and world. Scientists are still trying very hard to discover and finding new species all the time (everyday). There are thousands of species out there yet to be discovered all over the world (plants, bugs, microbes, fungi...). Over-populated Human are the key destructive reasons on why we're losing species (see Endangered Species List from EPA, UN, WWF).

**This is a very controversial topic and many people will either oppose (or support) my opinions. Different states, different eduation background, different family background from US or other part of the world will be the key determine factor on this answer. Yet-there are no absolute answers to this question and its up to your personal choice with respects to all explaination and belief within reasonable arguement.

Answer 4

Their only tangible evidence is a 3000 year old creation myth written down by ignorant ancient herdsmen.

Regarding the number of species, there is no evidence that the number of species is slowly declining. We see evidence of speciation in progress all over nature, so odds are the number of species is increasing rather than decreasing.

Answer 5

There are some scientists who have compiled evidence for creationism. One in particular is Hugh Ross. I have listed below a few websites that seem to have good information on what creationism is all about.

It is important to note that there are many aguments for and against creationism, and many levels of belief in between. Intelligent design has been one approach to bridge the gap between science and religion.

It is also possible I believe to accept that the Bible was not intended to be a science textbook but rather belongs in the realm of sacred texts which serve other important purposes in our lives such as defining moral behavior or encouraging models of social justice.

Your avatar is especially cute.

Answer 6

Aww is that your baby? Very cute, congratulations!!! i wouldn't know the facts or myths of history, they say that Armstrong didn't land on the moon according to the video, there is talk of scientists not agreeing with the theory of evolution, there is talk about about how old the earth is, and etc. But as far as dino's go I asked about if they were living today hah

Answer 7

I don't think there is any tangible evidence that supports creationism.


I didn't really want to answer the question, I just wanted to coo over the avatar...beautiful! =0)

Answer 8

moon dust

im serious thats their evidence, that the age of the moon is so young and thats why there isnt that much dust

but the moon has a thin atmosphere

we could go to all their claims and pick them apart

Answer 9

evolution, as Charles Darwin posited, is a controversial and incomplete theory.

Answer 10

I honestly don't know the answer to your question, but I just had to comment on your avatar! It is sooooo ADORABLE!! Is it yours?
