If evolution is true where is the proof that a human's most distant ancestor was a lifeless muddy pool?

Question

expected, no real answers

Jack Bauer everyone talks about evidence but nobody shows it

Hold on expedient, all that proves is life is constructed from DNA that don't expalin where DNA and who designed it come from.

noo duh yoda, so you accept God was involved

dayce, I was agreeing with you until you went into fanatic mode about a couple of sentences down.
You have no right to judge which people will be destroyed (not tortured) or be given life. People who believe in evolution are not guaranteed death because only God can read their hearts, maybe they have been truely deceived but God will give them a chance. The disciple Paul used to arrest Christians and have them executed but he turned around and had God's favour. You still think just because someone believes in evolution is wicked and deserving death. You need to read up on the bible before you make such outrageous statements.

trolling for fundies, but who's strawman? I asked for evidence and if evolution is so accepted as factually as actually happened then there should be foutains of proof. The way evolution is casted as it happened no doubt then this thread should be loaded with people with evidence not long explained only a top scientist can understand but every layperson. The evidence should be an overflow we should know exactly the facts. But we don't the fact is we are not even near tp knowing. Even evolutionists cannot all agree on accepted models.

Evolution is a religion in the way that it relies on faith.

Alun Turing, so you reckon we can have faith how science can explain how life developed but no explaination how it got there? I think explaining how it got there first is more fundamental. I mean if you cannot explain where it come from why should anyone believe how a bacteria became an oak tree, a fish and a human?

Answer 1

No one has ever stated that life came from a lifeless muddy pool.

It is clear that it came from a "soup" of the right combination of organic chemicals however. There is no creator saying magic words to create humans or life.

Anyway, you are expressing a common misunderstanding. Evolution says NOTHING about the origins of life. It is only an explaination of how species develop. The issue of the origin of life is totally unrelated to Evolution.

I would say that you need a better science education than what you show you have.

Answer 2

Lets put one thing straight first.
PURE Science and PURE Religion do not contradict each other
Evolution is a Scientific THEORY it is NOT Pure Science.
God has Created Rules and follows them.
God is Logical he does not contradict himself.
There is only ONE True Religion.

Evolution is a theory that all living creatures evolved from some a common evolutionary ancestor.
Evolution also states that this creature evolved from rocks and rain. the reverse steps are
animals and plants - single celled organism - prehistoric cell and mitocondria and chloroplasts - ooze that contains building blocks of life - rocks and acid rain - lava and gases from volcanoes.
that is what unpure-science claims you evolved from
Evolutionary Theory also is missing too many pieces to make a detailed map or picture. like making a puzzle with only 0.1% to 1% of the pieces. doesn't work period.

and since religion gives the only other alternative i'll have to go with the belief that we ARE created by God.
after all how does a quatinary biological programing language (DNA) that works actually come into existance by accident.
there is too much order in the universe for it to have just happened.

Answer 3

A muddy pool is not necessarily lifeless. Where is the proof that the muddy pool is lifeless?
The DNA of human can be traced to creatures in deep sea and the all human share the same DNA that can be traced to the same human ancestor. I'm sure if you really want the proof you can get it in the science library. Just make sure the source where you are basing your question has the same proof otherwise because that determines the need of the question.

Answer 4

our ancestor was not a 'muddy pool'. all life on this planet can be traced back to the oceans if thats what you mean. Our most distant ancestor would have likely been a single celled organism. add a few billion years and life became more complex, different forms came out, eventually life even left the oceans for land, mammals came into existence, from the early mammals a group of rodents formed, and from those the early primates came to existence, and from them came the species that eventually ended up transitioning into our species, to be grossly oversimplified. our tears have the same percentage of salt as ocean water, as an example of a faint tie we still have with the ocean. You ask for proof, but there is no proof left to state unequivocably that this is the exact path life took, but there is evidence to show it as the most likely scenario, which frankly, is better than the fables lots of cultures and religions have come up with to explain our existence, which have no evidence at all to back up their claims. I put a link in which has a basic timeline of life on earth.

Answer 5

The bible? Isn't that lifeless muddy pool what God used to create man according to Moses?

Scientifically, the geological record only goes back so far, being corrupted after a point by time and natural elements.

Answer 6

Evolution still retains theory status so there is no proof on that matter nor many others. There is a lot of theory and speculation about the matter that points to it as the possibilty but still no concrete proof.

Answer 7

It's just a theory that's all. The is no proof, it takes more faith to believe this than in the beginning, God created the havens and the earth.

Answer 8

Humans are 2/3 water.

Answer 9

Evolution is not true not one part of it. God made us from his own image. Evolution can't even be proven, it's just funny how scientists hate the fact they can't find a true proven answer and just throw one out there at ya. Even though there is not one shred of evidence to back it up. We had the word of Jesus Christ the only human to ever walk to face of this earth and was totally without sin. He was on earth as perfect as he is in heaven now.
All those who believe in evolution will go to hell. WHY? Because they are discrediting the word of our Lord. If you discredit or change or add to the Word of our Lord you will go to hell. Just like the Moron bible. There is NO additions to the word.
All people of other religions outside of Christians who believe 100% of the bible are going to hell. All those who believe but don't live it will go to hell.
By the way. I am sooooo against the "theory" of evolution that MY children are not allowed to learn it in school. That when that is to be discussed my children are to leave to classroom and the same when it comes to the Roman God's. If MY God can't be discussed in class neither can any other. My childrens grades do not hurt because of this because if they tried to fight me it's my freedom of religion that protects me.

Answer 10

I have a better question - do you plan on burying or cremating your strawman after you're done beating it down?

You seem to misunderstand the scientific connection between observation and the theoretical models built to explain them.
