Christians: Do you really reject evolution because you are offended at being related to monkeys?

Question

I know you don't all reject evolution. I'm just generalizing.

Answer 1

Whether Christians accept or not,
whether pope accepts or not,
whether Vatican city approves or not

Evolution is a proven phenomenon. No one can reject it.

Answer 2

Evolution is a false theory. it is only a theory. use of imaginative drawings and propaganda by scientists encourages most ppl to think that it is in fact true. natural selection is NOT the same as evolution. natural selection is the passing of the best fitting genes to offspring. evolution implies that all diverse species came from a similar source before evolving into different groups (eg. mammals, reptiles etc.). If this were so, there would have been fossils to show intermediates (eg. half - reptiles half mammals). Yet there are no *real* fossils that prove this. Of course there was a fake cranium that had features of humans and apes but it was later discovered how far evolutionists are prepared to go. They merged the skull of an ape and human! All real fossils suggest that the different species came about at once. Evolution also implies that creation came about by chance. BUT that has been proven wrong time and time again. In fact, the chance of a protein molecule being formed *by chance* is 1*10^10000 when the number that suggests impossibility is 1*10^50! A single protein/ cell is so complex to suggest that it has been created by chance is pure nonsense. Just as it is to assume that when walking into a jungle we find a plane - and assume that it was made by chance (by the wind etc). another reason why evolution is wrong is because we cannot simplify life, if we do it won't work. life is like a piece of clockwork - needs every single part for it to work

Answer 3

No, lol. But that is a clever way to put. Speaking from a Christians point of view I can tell you that the only reason why a Christian wouldn't accept evolution is because it contradicts the Bible. If it stated in the Bible that God created monkey and then monkey became man than evolution would be more accepting. But that's not what it states, it states that God created all animals and mamal including man a.k.a. Adam. Whether you choose to believe it or not is your choice but it is the truth.

Answer 4

Even If evolution was true, and we evolved from single celled organisms from a primordial soup, where did the soup come from? The big bang does not satisfy this question, there had to be something to explode for there even to BE a big bang, where did the material that banged big come from? the thought of evolution is silly, we were designed, the universe, and this earth were all designed. it was no accident, consider the placement of earth, what are the chances that after the big bang, the earth would be just the right distance from the sun that we dont burn up? And what are the chances of the earth being close enough to the sun that we dont freeze? If the earth was a fraction closer to the sun, we would burn, a fraction farther away and we'd freeze. thats no accident, the earth was created to support life.

Answer 5

Who says that Christians reject evolution?
Who says Christians are related to monkeys?

Answer 6

Of course I reject this because we did not evolve from monkeys. In the beginning of the Bible it states that God created man and woman not monkey, and if you read the bible it stated that Gods living spirit gave Adam the first man the authority to give names to all the creatures on earth, so how can we evolve from monkeys, we are Gods perfect creation, don't you think because I'm quite sure you don't look like a monkey.

Answer 7

Rejecting evolution has nothing to do with monkeys. In the first book of the Bible, Genesis, it states that God created man.

Answer 8

Im not offended about being related to monkey's i think the creation story is aload of crap! lol i beleive darwin to be honest. yes iam a christian. i dont reject the evolution theory. i personally beleive anyone who does is deff,dumb and blind! and was locked away in a hole for their whole life! i think they reject things like that because it has to do with the creation story, that god created the world and six days and rested on the seventh thats where the sabbath came from. and that whole crap bou adam and eve. because if darwins theory is correct then it would mean the creation stry isnt true whichwould mean god isnt realwhich i still beleive he is even though i dont beleive a word of the vreation story. hope that answers you question.

Answer 9

Most Christians accept some degree of evolution. You need not look further than the human race to see there are differing features, colors, sizes. What we don't all accept is that this explains all of what we have seen..Macroevolution. There is nothing in darwins theory that explains adequately how life arose in the first place and in fact his theory has proven to go against all that is known about the origin of life. Add to that some in the scientific community have been dishonest about how they have presented the evidence for evolution as well as tried to stop anyoe from questioning their theory. This is all done against the spirit of science. Theories should be open to question and open to be falsified. I suggest you read the icons of evolution by Jonathan Wells. It is interesting how many darwinists like to skip over the the problematic findings of the Cambrian explosian. scientists for years have been trying to create the correct conditions for for to arise and have had nothing but problems. It has been shown that life is way more complex than to arrive by simple chance or random mutations. I suggest you also check out the design revolution by William Dembski.

Answer 10

Evolution is rejected by us as it is only a theory and not proven to be true where creation though is mainly by faith but in many ways has been proven to be true as most stable and dominant species still exists and have not changed shpe or form ye through evolution. and the ways most people are acting worse the tne animals so it would deevolution as even the animal kingdom has rules and order in the herds and tribes that are around. no other animal on the face of this planet is as violent as mankind, to the point where the females torture their own bodies and allow death to enter them trying to take a seperate life within them through abortion. so we reject evolution because it is not true. even apes act better then most people..

Answer 11

mainly because its not consistent with God's word and also the preponderance of evidence does not support ape to man evolution. Today in the 21st century after long searching the missing link is still missing.
