Why do some people think that the Big Bang theory (formation of the earth) and Evolution- continued?

Question

have nothing to do with each other?

The way I see it if you take out millions of years then Evolution looks really stupid. The way you think the earth was formed is more important to your theory of Evolution then you think.

Answer 1

The Big Bang is a theory for how the universe began. It requires no life for it to be consistent theory.

Evolution (by natural selection) is a theory for how life changed (and continues to change) since it began. It doesn't require any input from ideas about how the universe began except (as you correctly point out) that there has to be enough time for the observed evolution to have occurred.
Note also that evolution says nothing about how *life* began.

BTW - even if the Big Bang turns out to be not true, there is ample evidence *here on earth* that the earth alone is much older than ~6,000 years. There are *trees* older than that, for goodness' sake (Bristlecone pines in california that are ~10,000 years old).

Answer 2

The fact that we can see Galaxies through the Hubble Telescope that are Billions of light years away, would indicate that the universe has been around for quite a while. There is such a mountain of evidence that points towards evolution, and a 4-5 billion year old earth, that no educated person questions it anymore.

Christians should realize that they are truly conspiracy theorists when it comes to evolution. Millions of scientists around the world all conspiring, with their educations, to keep the educated in the dark??? Why are Christians so against study and learning?
I don't blame Nomads 4000 years ago for thinking that

Vegetation existed before the planets, but know now that it is highly unlikely. I know that Joshua probably didn't stop the world from rotating so that he could kill a few more Gentiles. These things are clearly myths. Relying on them and trying to stop people from learning about the earth with science is nuts.

Crazy

Johnny r - You contend that God made the world with its disease and disaster and that he has deemed it worthy of destruction......Who is perfect?

The book of Daniel has been shown to contain changes as seen in versions found in the dead sea scrolls.

Prophesy is only reliable if the books containing them pre-date the events prophesied and were never changed, the Dead Sea Scrolls show that they were changed, and we don't have copies of Daniel with the detailed prophesies that predate the events prophesied.

Have you considered what the implications of prophesy really are? If prophesy exists, then the future is fixed, and a majority of mankind were created for eternal hell. Think it through.

Answer 3

I am not sure of what your question is, but suffice it to say that the "Big Bang" is not about the creation of the earth, but the creation of the hydrogen and helium (perhaps along with a few other elements) from which stars and galaxies are created. That event was about 13 or 14 billion years ago. The earth is only about 4.5 billion years old.

It is true that very long periods of time were necessary for life to appear, at least 1.5 billion years in earth's case.

THANK YOU!!!!!

While MICRO evolution (things evolving in small ways while staying within the Biblical "kind") is proven and takes a relatively short time, MACRO evolution (outside of the kinds and things like people evolving from monkeys or into squids as I heard was next - I can't wait to be a squid! - how are squids more advanced?) Macro evolution takes millions of years, or else it could not have worked, and

MACRO EVOLUTION starts at a small ameba or whatever and works its way up.

If we started as people, which is the creation story, then we must have only had micro evolution.

Really, the Big bang doesn't get you anywhere except a planet filled with carbon, and evolution needs a planet filled with carbon to start, so they have to go together.

Good question, I feel the same way.

Answer 5

evolutionsits want you to mention them in the same sentenced and play a game of A-ha abiogenisis is not evolution, or evolution is not abiogenesis, but yet they stil take millions of years

you can't have one without the other, they both rely on the same time frame

and no one has an answer for abiogenesis,

if life came from rainfall dissolving rock, why dosen't the same thing happen now?

confused about abiogenesis, you should be, esepcially when you take a biblical chap[ter called Genesis whuch explains how life was made, and then strip it off it's supernatural, and then try to qunatify it in terms of sceince in order to build a deus-ex mechana and a utooia out of it

a perfect city, as man can not build a paradise

as opposed to trust in God, who has made paradise for you

the love of god, vs the work of man


Created bnby a catholic: Yes the Jesuit order is luciferian it's leader is called the black pope, and the pope is the beast, i wonder why he supports evolution a theory that removes God as the creator....hmmmm i wonder why, he is telling millions of cathloics not to read genesis or revelations...hmmmmm

one wonders

They use religious institutions to destroy the work of God:

Darwin was a pastor
big bang theory was by a catholic

look up Jesuits and the black pope

and you will realize what are so called churches of god are up to


CONSIGI:
Genesis 1:31
God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.

God made it good, the devil made it bad.
But it was still good, Adam had a choice, he made the wrong one, and we are suffering the consequences

In the days of babylon a mighty empire
Daniel predicted that babvylon would be overrun by the persians in turn who would be overrun by the Greeks, and them by the Romans,

now for a guy that lived over 500 years before the Greece was established, how could he possibly have known that?

let me help you: it wasn't through evolution

Answer 6

Did you know that the Big Bang theory was developed by a Catholic..that science didn't like it at first because they were sure the universe was a constant. They thought the Big Bang was much too religious..The whole universe beginning in one instant of creation...
You know that science was slow to accept the string theory m because it smacked of the mystic...
Science and religion are not at odds. Man has prejudices that he tries to fit all the pieces in. God is much bigger than you give Him credit for.

Answer 7

You don't need the 13.7 billion year old universe to show that the oldest rocks on the Earth and Moon are billions of years old, asteroids are billions of years old, and the Sun is billions of years old. A lot of sciences come to the same conclusion independently. Creationists lie and lie about it, but independently derived values yield the same conclusion.

Answer 8

Ya want to know something that seems ironic if you talk to some of the folks on yahoo......the big bang theory was created by a catholic priest, Monsignor Lemaître...and evolution owes a lot to scientific work done by monks like Gregor Mendel

Answer 9

Same reason some people think a mystical being pointed a finger and BLAM - creation.

Evolution as nothing to do with the way the earth was formed. Evolution is occuring right now whether the earth was formed by the big bang or god.

Answer 10

I love the ones who say well uh um god invented evolution and he uh well, he placed fossils in the ground and aged them to test our faith.

WTF? Are these people really that retarded to believe that god created 60 million year old bones, buried them in the ground to test our faith about the earth only being 6,000 years old?

It's hilarious the stuff science proves and the bible thumpers then pervert the facts and twist them into their religion and say that's what the bible REALLY meant to say :)
