It only clashes with what man has written as the word of god not that there is a god. Evoloution breaks the social controls of their religious dictatorship over the masses. If people believed in evolution it would unveil their eyes to helping the human races future instead of worrying about the past and some common sense shows evolution on a daily basis if you look at even the flu.

you should more strongly believe in God , Having some knowledge of Big Bang and Evolution ,

"Creationism via Evoloution" is a very evedent theory"

So why to oppose just for no reason and yet against available Evedence ,

If God wants a person to believe in a principle, He should make it clear and evident. He is the Most Fair and Just. He knows that belief is not a voluntary thing ,

A person is not able to believe or disbelieve anything he chooses. The human body is at one's command but not the mind. I can obey a command that tells me to move my hand up or down, to walk or sit, even if such a command does not seem to be wise. But I am not able to obey a command, for example, that tells me to believe that two and two are five, or that three are one, or that fire is cold, or that snow is hot.

Our human knowledge comes from direct or indirect evidence, and it does not follow our own whim and will. An acceptable religious belief must be based on knowledge. When God wants me to know something, He should make such a knowledge possible by making its evidence available. Should He demand from me to believe something while evidence is standing against it, He would be asking me to do the impossible. This contradicts His justice.

Islam never condemns an individual when he does not believe in a principle because of lack of evidence; on the contrary, Islam blames a person when he follows a principle while groping in the dark without illuminating evidence, or when such a principle is not in accordance with the truth.

So we should Never embrace a doctrine when evidence stands against it,

Pope John Paul II did say it's possible that God created humanity via evolution. He wasn't the only Christian leader to say things like that, but that gets lost in the media rush to paint Christians as ignorant hicks. I'm not Christian, but I do sympathize, because Neopagans get slandered too. (Also because I like to think I'm a decent person and I don't like to see people get slandered anyway.)

That said, I think so many Christians hate the theory of evolution because it negates the creation story in Genesis. The reason this matters is because the whole basis of Christianity is Original Sin, which was brought about by Adam and Eve eating of the forbidden tree. It is because of Original Sin, supposedly, that we needed Jesus to die on the cross to redeem us. No Original Sin, no need for redemption, no need for Christianity, boom boom boom.

They won't all admit it but that's pretty much what it is.

By the way I'm beyond sick of seeing people go, "Oh, it's just a theory." The proper phrase is, "It's just a hypothesis." A theory used to be a hypothesis but has been tested through experimentation or observation and has stood up to testing and peer review. So evolution being a theory is a GOOD thing, not a detraction. (Unlike what another commenter here said, it's not a law yet--mostly because scientists haven't completely worked out all the mechanisms involved.)

The fundamentals of your "theory" are unproven and untestable... Making it faith...

So it becomes a clash of faiths...

Further, It is not accepted by all scientists and even though many accept it does not make it true.

The theory does clash with science itself in many fields... and requires one to ignore proven "facts" to believe...

Although some have Claimed "God did it" expecting you to except the "god of gaps" argument...

The math does not support evolution in the least, nor does most of the evidence...

Atheist believe they can avoid the gaps by saying "we don't know" which is true. However, they further assert that they are right and the rest of us are ignorant, rather than aknowledge the limits of science...

Although many will claim spontaneous generation is not part of the evolutionary theory, it is an assumption made without regard to the facts or the math...

The accumulation of beneficial mutations is also an assumption contrary to the data....

The assumption that one kind turns into another is also an assumption that goes against the data... (Mutation science)

The assumption that the variation of an organism such as a Dog, Cat, Horse and even a human being produces new Kinds of organisms... Variation of a kind is not proof of evolution, but it is assumed to be...

The assumption that the fossil record hold transition fossils, even though some evolutionists in the field of paleontology have admitted no transitional fossil have been found...
Yes we all know the fossil record is incomplete, but what we have is Organisms come into existance and over millions of years remain unchanged and then go extinct...

We have assumptions running lose with evolution and opinions and interpretations but very little actual scientific support...

Take going from scale to feather and that massive changes that would need to take place and calculate the probabilities.

Or going from a three chambered heart to a four chambered heart... or visa versa...

Or going from a single-celled organism to multi-cellular...

Or from asexual to sexual reproducation...

All are assumed but never proven or tested...

Very little of this theory is scientific, it is mostly unproven hypothesis, assumptions, mis-interpretations, and opinions...

Science should reject it, but people like it so it stays...

Journey Well...

I dont believe in "man from monkey". That is a theory and there is no hard evidence. I do however believe that lifeforms change and adapt over time. I believe in God not religion. These fundamental Christians get on my nerves with the "Im right. Your wrong" attitude. I am not saying evolution isnt true. Its just not been proven. These so called Christians need to quit putting words in Gods mouth. They wont know the truth til the end.

There are many evolution "theories", and all are just that theories. Nothing in nature addresses or parallels these theories. Nothing of the study of man parallels it. No matter the "theory", they can not answer or speak to the important question, and that is, "If you believe in the big bang theory, what created the big bang? If you believe in the primordial ooze theory, what created the primordial ooze? If you believe in the ape/monkey theory, what created the ape/monkey?

No man created theories or hypotheses answer that question, because at the beginning and the end of these theories, there HAD to be a Creator. And those proponents of evolutionary theories are too arrogant and self-possessed to accept that Almighty God is Creator Father and that He DOES exist.

But as a Christian=believer and follower of Jesus Christ, I KNOW I and everything in the world and in the earth and the heavens WAS created by Almighty God, but I always say, if you want to believe you evolved from primordial ooze, an ape,
an explosion, a squid, a lizard, or a knuckle-dragging Neanderthal then you MUST know your relatives betters than I do, but MY relatives did not.

1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, like us: and let him have rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every living thing which goes flat on the earth.

1:27 And God made man in his image, in the image of God he made him: male and female he made them.
2:25 And the man and his wife were without clothing, and they had no sense of shame.

3:21 And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife coats of skins for their clothing.
The image of God is not flesh and blood. Although you will find some that will disagree, but that is OK.
Look at the last verse from Genesis that I submitted. This may explain a lot.
I have a very good reason why I don't believe in evolution. It is stated that evolution was created under certain temperatures and certain climates. With science and all of it's technology they still can not produce life. They can not take a single celled life form and change it into a double cell. They still need two cells to produce anything, the two cells already in existence.
In evolution, things are always changing. My next thought is what are we going to evolve into. Life always has a cycle, are we on our way back to apes. Then fish, then the single cell that we are made from.
This is some of the many reasons I cannot believe in evolution.

because they don't like MONKEYS!! they say "i didn't come from a monkey" as if it disproves evolution. we have a common ancestor and i wouldn't mind having come from a monkey. monkeys are awesome. they do not have the intellect to understand evolution so they say it's wrong. it's easier to say "god did it" then it is to use their brain and learn and study evolution. I transfered to a public school and ended up in a bottom of the barrel social science class and that's where the religious nuts were. as you go up the ranks there's always more atheists and less religious nuts.

There should be no mutually exclusive argument between creationism and evolution. If one believes that a God exists why not understand that creation is ongoing through the process of evolution.
To try to use creationism as an etiological explanation is to misunderstand the Christian Myth...It is NOT literal history.

Not Christians as such... it's mostly Fundamentalists... who adhere to the fundamentals of the Bible such as the idea that all of it is the literal truth unless otherwise stated (like a parable). So they maintain that God created the world in 6 days as Genesis says. Most European Christians are OK with evolution.
