Evolution?

Question

If someone wishes to talk about evolution? Shouldn't they go to the mythology and folklore section?

Answer 1

No actually they are in the right section... you see evolution is actually a religion. It is the religion of humanism. They worship themselves; and quite frankly evolution takes much more faith than believing in GOD. I mean really.. a big bang forming the universe without the aid of an all knowing GOD??
You have to be a puny brain to believe that kind of gibberish.
~GOD BLESS YOU AND LEAD YOU INTO ALL TRUTH~

Answer 2

Creation is much more easier to understand than evolution theory. One, there are a lot of myths which relate how humans and other creatures originated. None have mention they were from evolution of something small which came from gas which was hardened and turned to liquid form then pop came out a living cell. You see that cell has to develop for some billion of years to turn to another form. Just think, how could this cell survive and learn to multiply itself? Ok, let's say it is smart and did that and was successful to turn to an adult. How would there may another adult of different sex be formed so that he could produce offsprings with? If you can believe this story, how come it is so difficult for you to believe man is a creature by God? So many billion of years, how could any living thing survive alone? Unless it is God himself. Why should the belief of evolution survive until now? The reason is simple. If you don't believe in God, you will not care to look for him and you will lose your opportunity. And your end is terrible indeed. Please note the use of you is not pointing at you alone. It goes to explain to those who regard evolution as the answer to all creations.

Answer 3

Evolution and Creationism are polar opposites but are directly related because they involve the same topics, like the creation of life and the universe. Does that make sense? Hope so! If you want to discuss one, it's hard to not discuss the other. It's like trying to talk about politics but only talking about one point of view, there's not really a point. It's more fun, and interesting to talk about both opinions with people who agree and disagree with you.

Answer 4

No, they should take it to the biology section. Creationist stories, on the other hand, should be posted to the mythology & folklore section.

Answer 5

It is Creationism that belongs in mythology and folklore. Evolution is a proven scientific fact. Get over it.

Answer 6

Yes, and I guess the thousands upon thousands of pieces of evidence now in our possession, including countless transitional forms and partial forms belong in that section as well?

Answer 7

Creation isn't discussed in R&S because it's religious. It's here because it's a pack of damnable lies.

Answer 8

yea, lmao, do u believe in evolution? what's w/ the monkey?

1 - FAIRY TALES FOR BIG PEOPLE

"Rudyard Kipling, in addition to his journalism, adventure stories, and chronicling of the British Raj in India, is remembered for a series of charming children’s tales about the origins of animals. The Just-So Stories (1902) are fanciful explanations of how . . the camel got his hump (because he was always saying- Humph to everybody). Modeled on the folktales of tribal peoples, they express humor, morality, or are whimsy in ‘explaining’ how various animals gained their special characteristics.

" ‘Not long ago,’ writes science historian Michael Ghiselin, ‘biological literature was full of ‘Just-So’ stories and pseudo-explanations about structures that had developed ‘for the good of the species.’ Armchair biologists would construct logical, plausible explanations of why a structure benefited a species or how it had been of value in earlier stages."—*R. Milner, Encyclopedia of Evolution (1990), p. 245.

Times have not changed; in fact, things are getting worse. As many scientists are well-aware, *Darwin’s book was full of Just-So explanations; and modern theorists continue in the tradition of ignoring facts and laws as they search for still more implausible theories about where stars, planets, and living organisms came from.

*Charles Darwin, always ready to come up with a theory about everything, explains how the "monstrous whale" originated:

"In North America the black bear was seen by Hearne swimming for hours with widely open mouth, thus catching, like a whale, insects in the water. Even in so extreme a case as this, if the supply of insects were constant, and if better adapted competitors did not already exist in the country, I can see no difficulty in a race of bears being rendered, by natural selection, more and more aquatic in their structure and habits, with larger and larger mouths, till a creature was produced as monstrous as a whale."—*Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species (1859 and 1984 editions), p. 184.
