What comes to your mind when you hear the word EVOLUTION?

Question

If you want to go for the big bucks give me evidence of creationism, or Intelligent Design.

Answer 1

the sheer wonder and complexity born of the simple premise of cause & effect =)

Answer 2

Creation = Evolution

Answer 3

I cannot make you believe something that you don't want to believe, but I urge you to use discernment, reason and logic when thinking aobut evolution- all the things evolutionists accuse us of not using , but really- do the principles of evolution make sense? If this has taken place over the course of millions of years, little by little, then we are being decieved when we are told we are looking for "the missing link" we are looking for millions of missing links- besides that- there are so many common sense, scientific questions that evolution just cannot answer- no matter how you twist it.
If you are really interested in education and not just disproving something that does not fit your mold- read this article, it is fun reading but very informative and common sense-

here are other bits of interesting fact for you to ponder :

Charles Dawson, a British lawyer and amateur geologist announced in 1912 his discovery of pieces of a human skull and an apelike jaw in a gravel pit near the town of Piltdown, England . . . Dawson's announcement stopped the scorn cold. Experts instantly declared Piltdown Man (estimated to be 300,000 to one million years old), the evolutionary find of the century. Darwin's missing link had been identified. Or so it seemed for the next 40 or so years. Then, in the early fifties . . . scientists began to suspect misattribution. In 1953, that suspicion gave way to a full-blown scandal: Piltdown Man was a hoax . . . tests proved that its skull belonged to a 600-year-old woman, and its jaw to a 500-year-old orangutan from the East Indies." Our Times--the Illustrated History of the 20th Century (Turner Publishing, 1995, page 94).

Science Fiction
The Piltdown Man fraud wasn't an isolated incident. The famed "Nebraska Man" was built from one tooth, which was later found to be the tooth of an extinct pig. "Java Man" was found in the early 20th Century, and was nothing more than a piece of skull, a fragment of a thigh bone and three molar teeth. The rest came from the deeply fertile imaginations of plaster of Paris workers. "Heidelberg Man" came from a jawbone, a large chin section and a few teeth. Most scientists reject the jawbone because it's similar to that of modem man. Still, many evolutionists believe that he's 250,000 years old. No doubt they pinpointed his birthday with good old carbon dating. Now there's reliable proof. Not according to Time magazine (June 11, 1990). They published an article in the science section that was subtitled, "Geologists show that carbon dating can be way off." Don't look to "Neanderthal Man" for any evidence of evolution. Recent genetic DNA research indicates the chromosomes do not match those of humans. They do match those of bipedal primates (apes).

What does Science Say?
Here are some wise words from a few respected men of science: "Evolution is a fairy tale for grown-ups. This theory has helped nothing in the progress of science. It is useless." (Professor Louis Bounoure, Director of Research, National Center of Scientific Research). "Evolution is unproved and unprovable." (Sir Arthur Keith--he wrote the foreword to the 100th edition of, Origin of the Species). "Scientists who go about teaching that evolution is a fact of life are great con-men, and the story they are telling may be the greatest hoax ever." (Dr. T. N. Tahmisian, Atomic Energy Commission, USA).

"To suppose that the eye . . . could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree." Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species

A great resource for some education that is logical and common sense is called "The Science or Evolution: expand your mind" You can get this DVD from WayoftheMaster.com

The fact is there is nothing here that was not created, planned with a purpose in mind. Is there anything on this earth- not natural that just came together on its own. You can put pieces of 'stuff' in a box and put whatever conditions you choose and without a purpose and planning for that purpose, you won't get anything useful. I have yet to see anyone show matter being created out of nothing, or one species evolving into another or any proof of that happening. this world works in a clockwork type order , there is precision and purpose to everything you see - you cannot have purpose without a plan and you cannot have a plan without a planner- there is nothing that can disprove intelligent design. Period!

Answer 4

Not again! You know everyone is just going to argue. We'll have some Bible quotes, some Darwinian quotes, and a bunch of unsupported evidence justified with statements like, "because that makes no sense" or "they are afraid of the truth" or "read the bible" or "a science book " and maybe some sarcastic reference or lame joke. A lot of people (I said a lot not all) usually don’t come on yahoo answers to learn. They merely want conformation of their own opinions.

Answer 5

Evolution is something that consists of a time span and change.
"The Creation" took place over six days and each day something was added (change). If god had said "let all i desire exist" and poof it was suddenly there, then that would have been creation absolute...yet it did not happen that way. The Creation itself was evolution.

Answer 6

GOD at work ! comes to my mind. GOD created all things that have been made and that process is still continuing. What you call evolution is the proof of this.As for intelligent design anyone with a grain of intelligence can see and experience that truth everywhere they look. You do have to open your eyes, heart and mind.
Everyone, I repeat EVERYONE KNOWS IN THEIR HEART OF HEARTS THAT "GOD IS" ! There are none so blind as those who will not see. From LOVE, With LOVE To LOVE

Answer 7

A sound scientific THEORY backed by a lot of data that is under attack by a bunch of people at all times whose alternative is "Something somewhere created everything somehow but no way to know and wrong to even think about how"..and their attacks usually indicate they have no understanding of the theory...just ready bozo's answer about how monkeys should be turning into people

Answer 8

The reality of man shall develop and come forth as the image of God his creator. The thoughts of man shall take such upward flight that former accomplishments shall appear as the play of children; -- for the ideas and beliefs of the past and the prejudices regarding race and religion have ever been lowering and destructive to human evolution. I am most hopeful that in this century these lofty thoughts shall be conducive to human welfare.

(Abdu'l-Baha, Baha'i World Faith - Abdu'l-Baha Section, p. 234)

Answer 9

Evolution or spontaneous generations or radio polonium halos are theories that are still under disputes. Nothing is conclusive shows we still have so much to learn and should stand on with an open mind.

Answer 10

unproven theory.
Creation:

if we came from monkeys - how come moneys today do not mature into humans?

Just how did life come from Nonliving material - there was a big bang - but where did Life come from.

Can we today create life from nonliving material? Can scientist mix some chemicals together and form life?

If science never changes - why have we not been able to create life by mixing chemicals together?

All that and I did not even quote any Bible!

Check out http://www.johnfourteen.com from John 14 in the Bible
Look at "Studies in the Bible" and "Lessons from the Pulpit"
many answers to everyday life can be found there.

Answer 11

Unproven. Constantly disproven.
At the core of every piece of DNA scientist will tell you is proof of a creator who is more intelligent then ourselves.
If evolution was true we would see monkeys turning into man everyday and that hasn't gone on for hundreds of years.
