What if...?

Question

What if we discovered that we actually DID evolve from chimps and we were 100% sure, and you were truely against the whole idea because your religion had deneid it, would you still believe in what you were taught or change your views?

Answer 1

i would point and lagufe at the religous people oh wait i all ready do

Answer 2

God acts through natural means. Do any of you even have an idea of what the probability is of every theory that science has for the creation of the earth and life on it. Take a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle put it into a box and shake it up and throw it on the ground. Repeat until the puzzle lands perfectly assembled. You have about the same probability of the puzzle landing fully assembled as you have of how science says the universe and life got started happening without a guiding hand.
How did God create the world and all life on it? I don't know, but if science managed to figure out how life got started, then I would congratulate them, take note of what they have discovered and go about my merry religious way.

Answer 3

This is like saying what if there was no god. The fact is that Science is leaning more and more toward creation and against evolution all the time. If there was undeniable proof that god exists would you believe? I say look around you! This life isn't an accident or a freak science project. Every living thing needs something in it's environment to survive and life on this planet could not have existed and evolved on it's own for millions of years so it could change to life forms that would need other life forms to survive. That would be going backward.

Answer 4

Well, this is why I don't rule anything out. I don't any religion is the "right" religion. God is God, the end. I'm sure at some point, science will prove something that certain religions have gone against. They'll just back up, regroup and admit it and keep going along. That's what they've done in the past, I see no reason why they'd change their format or anything.

Answer 5

Sorry, but scientists will never discover that we came from monkeys. Because we DIDN'T! The funny thing is that it takes only 1 scientist to make that claim and it's all over the news that it is true. But if 10 other scientists can prove the first scientist was totally wrong, then the news doesn't report that.

Answer 6

Evolution never said we were evolved from chimps but of common ancestry. We evolved ultimately from very simple forms of primaitive life in the sea and that's why the fetal development goes through a stage of having gills before it develops completely into the human form for birth. for more info try this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution

Answer 7

We didn't evolve from chimps! Chimps and Humans have a common ancestor and that is a scientific fact. Evolution has already been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt.

I already accept evolution and I think it fits nicely with my current world view.

Answer 8

The very second I am able to open up any document on evolution and not see a list of revisions I will gladly sit down and consider it. Maybe it will even have a transitional form in it that is not an alligator.


Shalom.

Answer 9

The human race did not evolve from chimpanzees, but from an apelike ancestor, now extinct. Evolution is now a proven fact (details on request).

Answer 10

We are %100 sure that evolution occurs...the only debate is about the methods.

6000 year direct creationism is exactly the same as saying the Earth is the center of the solar system.

Answer 11

They would probably just believe both just like tens of millions of Christians believe in Christ and accept evolution as fact.
