I AM NOT A CHRISTIAN!!! You stated "Micro-Evolution". Please explain that to the mass of people reading... Because it is ridiculous... Please explain how that has to do with Evolution please...
I did not say that it does not matter what evolution is - you are confused - again ?! I have explained evolution to you in very simple terms - a number of times. What was your problem with the previous explanation. You need to figure this one out .. prior to moving backwards.
I apologize for my absence... My mother died. My step mother is on her death bed. Not years, not months ... Days... I wish Evolution was real. She could evolve and stay alive... But it doesn't work that way does it ..
That is truly sad news. My heart goes out. Evolution absolutely IS very very real. Your idea that evolution could help an individual is a gross misunderstanding of evolution. Individuals do not evolve. Species evolve. And, they do it over large numbers of generations.
Sorry, the vast majority of creationists in the west are Christian so I just made that assumption about you. Most of the rest are Muslim, and very few outside those two groups. Substitute "Christian" for "religious" in my post then. I'm surprised you haven't heard of this term because its a very basic term in the evolution debate. Microevolution is the evolution within a species, and doesn't involve the creation of a new species or that species becoming a different species from what it was before. For example, the evolution from wolfs to dogs, or Darwin's finches, or covid mutations are examples of microevolution. It does depend on how narrowly you define a species though. Microevolution is accepted by the vast majority of creationists because 1: We literally see it happening before our eyes so its undeniable, and 2: It doesn't involve any significant evolution and allows creationists to say that God made the species but allowed them to adapt a little bit. Creationists also accept that species are often driven the extinction from time to time. What the Nazis wanted to do was improve the genetics of humans by getting rid of the inferior humans. This is microevolution since they aren't trying to make a species different from humans. And microevolution is something even creationists accept. So why are you using it to attack evolution? You are the one who brought up the big bang. And I agree the big bang has nothing to do with Darwin's theory. I am fine with limiting our discussion to Darwin's theory.
I apologize for my turn of events. God took two of my mother's and I was beside myself dealing with grief. But...back to the subject, I will NEVER respect Evolutionary beliefs because it is a religion... Period. If you can provide s information that proves me wrong... Do it. (I will read what you posted until now - where is Maury?)
How far did you get through this fine series I linked to you months ago? The playlist can be found by appending this to the base YouTube URL: /?v=AXQP_R-yiuw&list=PLXJ4dsU0oGMLnubJLPuw0dzD0AvAHAotW
I am of the belief that YES...... ... Atheistic Darwinian Evolutionary Theory is something of a joke on an astonishingly under informed audience designed to convince people to place a lower value on their lives........ and ultimately on their time....... ... which is a portion of their lives. It partly goes all the way back to Robert Thomas Malthus but then Darwin caught the ball and ran with it.......
I apologize that I haven't been here in a minute. My mother died... Then the next week, my other mother died. I had two - some call them "Step" mother's... I never did. I loved them bother equally and miss them dearly. But... I am now ready to get back to the subject. I know God loving people tried to have my back (which I do not want) and others said things about Evolution, not knowing it is a (by description) a religion. Will now continue withe involved. I will thumb through the previous post, but will not read them all... Just know where I stand... EVOLUTION IS A RELIGION!!! PERIOD!!!
People who believe in Evolution do not even know what Evolution is... I will give every person to tell me (post) what they think Evolution is. We will get many answers, because they don't even know what the opossum balls (did rules change) to the basics of Evolution.
Been a minute... Tell me why you believe in evolution? Christian folks, tell me why you do NOT believe in evolution? You both are wrong and I want to enlightenment both groups please ... First, go to Evolution 101 website by the Professional education society of California Berkeley University (UCB?) Look it up and we will discuss on both sides, because I feel you are BOTH wrong!!! Maybe... I have heard strong opinions that agreed with me... We shall see... I appreciate your input and debate.
Evolution may be considered a religion under the metaphorical definition of something pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion. This, however, could also apply to stamp collecting, watering plants, or practically any other activity. Calling evolution a religion makes religion effectively meaningless.
Evolution is a theory, it's based on many things. For instance we can see it happen in our lifetime. As organisms reproduce they hybridize. It can be measured over generations. It is a theory not proven fact because it is missing components. For instance a beginning. In order for evolution to occur there has to first be life.
Evolution has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with the ORIGIN of LIFE! Multiple SCIENCE disciples have all PROVEN Evolution to be FACTUALLY proven. The Origin of Life is being RESEARCHED but that does NOT impact Evolution.
I agree... But how does ONE plant create all life on this planet. Explain the Scientific Method the confirms this Hypothesis...
So... You think Religion is meaningful? I do NOT think religion is meaningful, only a means for a purpose to guide individuals to a cause that is meaningful to that person who created the religion.
I will set a "Foundation" then. We will discuss Evolution as described by (the most noted college in the study of Evolution) The College of Berkeley California - Subject; Evolution 101. Is that okay with you. Please read and we will advance our discussion...
