Do you believe in evolution?

Question

Read my book "Origin of speices"

Answer 1

its good!

Answer 2

Oh sure I do believe in evolution Darwin's theory is right on point. I believe that everything in this world is matter and energy and we can prove through science and evolution the occurence of most phenomeneon, but with all these theories no one has yet proven to me where does the human spirit come from where does emotions, frustration, love, courage, knowledge come from, the idea of a mathmatically ordered cosmos seems plausible, and I personally believe in it, I also believe in the big bang. But that is where we stop anything before that cannot be proven, so
someone actually had to initiate the big bang, I would rather give credit to aliens or robots before I give credit to the random of evolution, for anything that happened before the big bang.

Answer 3

Evolution is not a matter of 'belief'.

In science, a 'theory' is not just 'an idea', as the scientifically ignorant seem to think, in common parlance... it is an explanatory framework for a set of observed facts... a description, or model, of the manner of interaction of a set of natural phenomena, capable of predicting future occurrences or observations of the same sort, and capable of being tested through experiment or otherwise falsified through empirical observation.

In science, a 'theory' occupies a higher level of importance than mere 'facts'... theories EXPLAIN facts. In the case of the 'Theory of Evolution', the OBSERVED FACTS that it explains are the changes that occur in the genetic makeup of populations of organisms, over time. The explanation is genetic drift (statistical variations in the genetic within a population) and mutations (random), operated on by natural selection (NOT random). In other words, "The non-random survival of randomly varying replicators (Richard Dawkins)." NONE of this is in dispute among scientists. It represents a consistent body of scientific fact extending back almost 150 years, which is well supported by genetics and by the fossil record. There has NEVER been anything found to refute it.

Answer 4

What does belief have to do with evolution? You may as well be asking if I fish for bicycles. The one thing is a mental trait and the other is an observable fact of the natural world.
I believe in love, Chuck.
I mean Mr. Darwin. Hey, I thought you were dead. But then that was a belief, subject to change when more information is acquired. I haven't seen your grave or death certificate for myself, so I didn't really know. Welcome back!
Still taunting the Christians, huh?

Answer 5

I owned it and everyone has.

Jewish Thelogians and the Catholics in the Vatacan has expressly said there is NOTHING in your book that is incompatible with Relgion, Genesis or the Bible.

Everything evolves, from a common ancestory. Even man. From Adam and Eve. There's nothing in your book that says OTHERWISE.

And since Genetics has PROVED that all DNA is common in Origin it proves, beyound a doubt that God created everything.

Thank you for your book that SHOWS the world EVERYTHING came from a COMMON, UNIFIED source.

I mean, if different things had drastically different DNA, then it would mean there might be a flaw in creationsim, but since it is ALL from a common source that means ONE THING created EVERYTHING.

The origin of the species comes from ONE common demoninator. One source. One entity. One that always was and always will be.

A rose by any other name, to quote Shakespeare.

NO WHERE in your BOOK does it specifically say there is NO GOD.

NO WHERE in your book does it specifically say there is NO ADAM AND EVE.

No where.

Answer 6

Well some things about evolution are proven scientific facts. I don't think we've totally solved the riddle of how we came to be, but the natural world does evolve to some degree, that is a fact. I think it is still possible to have a Creator and the world be evolving. Perhaps the Creator made it evolve. Who knows?

Answer 7

..did you forget that you wrote in that book that origins was a question...
.....hey Charley, what ever happened to those millions of fossilized "links" between lif-forms you were expecting?
....why are there so many, many anomalies..
......why do they use the few ways of dating the earth which support your theory, and they ignore the numerous ways of dating which don't? like the highly fast rate of evaporating helium.. there shouldn't be any helium left in the system.. {helium rises fast, like in when in the human voice}
....and say, how did chemistry keep improving to get to life, when all of matter is falling apart, and is definitely not self improving, according to the second most held and proven law of science..
..say what'd ya think of DNA? ain't that something.. wonder where the genetic program came from anyway!!? must've evovlved, like computer programs do.. which reminds me, mutations are like computer viruses, they're not improvements.. and even you knew natural selection is not evolution, as evolution is new forms evolving from old.. and surviving is if the survival mechanism needed is already in the genetic code, like the ability to grow long roots during drought.. ability was there in the design, not new..

Answer 8

NO, I do not.

I ACCEPT and ACKNOWLEDGE the facts,that show evolution to be true.
"Belief" is a very suggestive and emotive word, not dissimilar to saying "wrong" instead of "incorrect".
(and there have been some major advances in that field since around 150 years ago, but yes, still a good read)

;)

Answer 9

Yes, I do. But I am also a Christian. Evolution makes sense: many theorists have tests and hypotheses that have yet to be proven wrong--Many child psychologists did tests on babies and their results basically lead to the idea of evolution...) And as for Christianity, it is my choice to believe in that.

Answer 10

I believe that we were create by god and that Adam and Eve were the first man and woman, however; we are all here as the result of evolution to some degree.

Answer 11

Not in the same sense as Darwinism. But the basic concept of evolution is accurate!
