How can anyone be dumb enough to believe in evolution?

Question

Scientists have tried to prove the creation wrong but all they ended up doing was proving it right.........they have proven that the world was mapped out that there has to be a creator..and that creator is God almighty.

I am not afraid of evolution. It just takes too much faith to believe that we came from nothing but soup. How does that make any sense? If you look around and see the design, it had to have been created by an intelligent creator. That creator is God.

Answer 1

I ask that very question everyday.

Answer 2

What is this, opposite day?

How can anyone be dumb enough to believe in creationism?

Scientists have tried to disprove evolution but all they ended up doing was finding more and more supporting evidence for it.

I am not afraid of the idea of creationism, but it just takes too much faith, and commensurate lack of reason, to believe that we came from nothing but an imaginary deity. How does that make any sense? If you look around the world and see apparent design, you must look closer to see that there are imperfections everywhere in nature that could have arisen only through evolution by natural selection. Nature certainly could not have been created by a very intelligent creator - otherwise these imperfections would not be there.

Answer 3

You have enough faith to believe in a god who cares about you, but, not enough faith to believe in evolution? That's so pathetic, and yet I don't feel sorry for you. I'm ashamed to share the same planet with you and other people who are equally as ignorant. Who created your creator? You look around and see the universe, and think that a design this amazing had to have been created by an intelligent creator, yet you have no trouble believing that this creator was not created. I wonder how anyone can be dumb enough to believe in creationism.

Answer 4

actually paleontologists don't assume anything about the bones they find. They don't assume that the specific individual that the bones are from ever had children. But if you find a fossil of one member of a species it's a pretty safe bet that there were more of that species alive, and it's a good guess that even if the individual didn't have children, the individual had parents as well as the unknown number of other members of that same species that we haven't dug up. Which means it's safe to assume that members of the species found existed that had children, the fossil being evidence of at least one child. Also evolution is a branching process not a linear one. The species represented by the fossil didn't have to lead to any modern species at all to still tell us something about how evolution progressed. We share more traits in common with apes than we do with monkeys because we share a more recent common ancestor with apes than we do with monkeys. Likewise we can tell what features evolved in humans after the two lineages diverged by seeing what features aren't present in the ape gene pool, and vice versa. We can use fossils to tell us approximately when a new trait evolved and how the new trait progressed from two species' shared ancestor to the modern representatives of those species that we see today.

Answer 5

Anyone can be dumb enough to think that evolution occurs and has occured, if they have studied biology, or medicine, or anthropology, or most other sciences. If their understanding of the world is based on total ignorance or what some shaman told them, then they might believe that the world is flat, the stars are on a crystal sphere about 200 feet over our heads, Noah romped with the dinosaurs on a large boat, while everything else died in a flood, or that God appeared on earth, diguised as a Jewish Rabbi and that any minute he'll be back.

Answer 6

Evolution does not rule out a creator. Only a few evolutionists have ruled him out. If God created the universe, then he also created the scientific principals (including the laws of chance) that govern evolution. Do not worry about it. It is like the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg? So what?

Science and theology can not contradict each other because they deal with mutually exclusive items. Science deals with what we can touch, feel, or can be measured with our senses. Theology deals with the immaterial which can not be sensed.

Answer 7

First of all we know of millions of plants and animals that have changed during Earth's history. Exactly why and how they changes took place we attempt to explain as evolution. Nobody proved that evolution is false, otherwise the history of the world as the fossil record indicates would have to be false. Coming from soup doesn't sound very scientific, but neither does an almighty creator who just willed everything to occur. Just how did he come to be anyway? Have creationists ever explained that one satisfactorily? I'm glad that you have faith and that it works for you, but don't expect all intelligent people to join you in your happy delusion!

Answer 8

Tell all of the PhD people that they're dumb then. They believe in evolution, but they studied so hard in college. so feel free to call those educated people dumb.

I don't know, there has to be a creator. The only way we can find out that there is a creator is when we die. If we see God after we died, then there. But if not, then whatever. lol. Just live life to its fullest.

Answer 9

For evolution, see fossil history. This may not be able to trace original life (soup) but fossils explain so much, as does genetic structure. Religion is 100% faith and no evidence if you ask me. All the people who wrote original religious writings are dead. Only they knew if they were telling the truth or not. Humans need to believe in something as the prospect of no life after death scares people. By these means, people have controlled others for thousands of years. Your Christianity affects your actions. I am in no way belittling you or your religion as I am a great believer in each to their own, but only one religion can surely be right, and the others were just methods of controlling populations. For these reasons I am an Atheist and believe in Evolution, although I put Church Of England on application forms etc. as it sounds patriotic.

Answer 10

I see you're good at reading opinion but have you done your own investigation?? Why don't you type in stephen jay gould into google and stop by your library to get one of his books above evolutionary biology. There's no reason to be scared since what you will read is truth and the truth never scathes us.
I think it is very silly of you to say scientists have proven creation and even sillier that you would believe in such a ridiculous series of events. Really do you think that a well intentionaed force that needs nothing whipped up a universe of billions of stars and only one species that should rule it or that we are here by chance...think ....

Answer 11

Maybe people are dumb enough to believe in evolution because there's actually quantifiable, falsifiable evidence that creatures have evolved over time. Of course, none of this is evidence to someone who has already closed their mind to its possibility. Close-mindedness is much more synonymous with the previously referenced dumbness, for anyone keeping score.
