If you do not beleive in the theory of evolution what would it take to convince you?

Question

What evidence would you consider sufficiant to convince you of the validity of the theory of evolution if you have not already been convinced?

Answer 1

First, a ship would have to visit some island that was cut off from the mainland.

There would have to be creatures there that developed distinctive traits and physical characteristics not found anywhere else that were adapted specifically to this island's unique environment.

Furthermore, these creatures would have to be studied using a scientific method, cataloged and recorded for general scrutiny.

But until that happens, I'm going to have to say that evolution is one big fantasy...

Answer 2

Evolution is just a theory. But the question is how did evolution first come about. For any process to come about there needs to be a set of instructions for that programmation. Randomness in itself is an action that needs certain instructions, not just data. The question is not what you get from fliping a coin, the question is who is responsible for flipping the coin. It all comes down to a thought, whether is randomness or natural selection, a though is behind the action. Before anything existed there was a thought, therefore an intellegent Designer must exist.

Answer 3

those which have self belief that the earth is actually 7000 years previous are complete morons yet they are going to argue that evolution is a idea and does not disprove or get rid of the existence of God. God would not favor to be shown. faith is a perception in issues that ought to't be shown so what's the massive deal if someone needs to position self belief in God? you're under no circumstances going to get a logical or definitive answer so....

Answer 4

Creation goes well beyond what evolution is attempting to explain. Science brings up more questions as it attempts to answer with speculation.
For instance,
How did this planet become the perfect environment?
Just the right distance from the sun,
Magnetic poles that protect the earth from radiation,
Air quality and balance in nature to correct itself,
Renewing seasons,
The list is endless.
The random mutations that are the speculations of evolution are far too complex to explain the genome sequence.
The numbers become astronomical and that is with perfect DNA mutations, not taking into concept the fact that not every mutation is perfect, and we have many diseases today that are a testament to that fact.
Assumptions are part of science. Then they try to explain,however the replication of the changes is impossible.
The answer is just not attainable with science alone.

Answer 5

As I am atheist, you would expect me to believe in Evolution, but I don't, I believe in Intelligent Design, but I would consider all evidence that evolutionists have.

I have been doing research for the last 4 years on this subject, and I went from being an evolutionist to believing in Intelligent design. Evolution just can't explain the high complexity of the human genome. How can all highly complex systems come about from nothing! it requires an intelligence to create the information contained in DNA.

The space shuttle is highly complex, but there is no way that would of come about from a wind blowing in a scrap yard. But this is what evolutionists expect us to believe when we discuss the coming together of particles in the primordial soup! DNA is far more complex than the space shuttle and didn't come about by chance.

I don't believe in a magical mysterious invisible God, but I do believe that the creation in Genesis was true, but instead of God it was astronaut scientists from another world, they were mistaken for Gods. The evidence to support this theory is massive, but sounds to wacky to consider.

Have fun researching and just open your mind up to the possibility of it though! what if this third option of Intelligent Design were true. Don't just laugh at it, but consider it from a scientific point of view, do your research, then come up with your conclusion after the research. If you still believe in Evolution fair enough :)

Have fun

Answer 6

You cannot convince someone that evolution is real if they believe that truth comes from a book written thousands of years ago by men who thought the Earth was flat and disease was caused by demons. They are unreachable and arguing with them makes about as much sense as playing chess with a pidgeon, they knock over all the pieces, crap on the board, then fly home to their flock to declare victory

Answer 7

If you think you are a scientist too like the person who introduce the evolution theory, why you can`t even spell your writings correctly, or straighten your grammar, etc.
Have you thought about this...scientist just observed the patterns and other natural laws established by God...and just discovers things that already existed.
Did you see the human finite brain imagination...vs...God`s grand design and perfect creations of the world including human being and everything in it?
Do you know when the world created? and when the man existed?
Do you know scientist Darwin (of evolution theory), when he was dying...he ask forgiveness from God of MISLEADING the people (for his evolution theory) from believing Gods graciousness in creating His precious spirited human being in His image and likeness.
If Darwin ask forgiveness to God...why can`t you ???
Think about that!

Answer 8

If a evolutionist can explain to me how the second law of thermodynamics fits into their theory!

And YES, the 2nd law is applicable to the earth, excuses such as the earth is a open system has been debunked long ago, the energy of the sun just increases the entropy, thus it leads to more chaos.

Evolutionists just cant explain how the 2nd law fits into their theory, when challenged with this question they just stick their fingers in their ears and go "Bla Bla Bla"

EVOLUTION THEORY IS DUMB

Answer 9

There is NOTHING that would convince me of that! If we evolved from apes, then why are there still apes? Wouldn't they be extinct? And, do you really think that the earth, air, water, plants, animals, humans, everything, just happened? NOT! This seems so easy to see that it is not true! I really don't get why people don't understand that evolution is just all bunk! It took God to make this, not time.

Answer 10

For so many years people believed that earth was plane. Now they know it is a sphere. Don't you think that there is a tiny posibility that this theory maybe wrong? Couldn't it just be one of the theories or di we all have to repogram our mind to suit it?

you could go to http://www.christiananswers.net/creation/menu-humans.html maybe you learn more about other theories
