Evoloution is a true leap of faith

[Sir Gareth]

I fid it so funny that so many scientists, doctors, teachers and other so-called educated types buy into Evoloution when there is no proof it existed at all. There is, on the other hand, tons of historical and archeological evidence to support the gospels.

If a these people claim to be intellectuals who follow evidence to reach a conclusion there should be many more christians than their are.

[Trusting Jesus]

I agree with you, Sir Gareth, but there are some on this site who don't......so duck! There are many doctors, scientists, etc, who do believe the truth. There are many former evolutionist teachers, who when challenged to prove their beliefs, had their eyes opened to the truth. One that comes to mind is Dr. Jobe Martin. He has some DVD's called "Incredible Creatures that Defy Evolution". He is just one of many.

Yep.

They'll believe anything, so long as it ain't God.

Evoloution i the theory that animals will change to adadpt to their enviorments, after many years (ussually on the millions) the changes will take root in the animal species creating a permanent change.

It is also the theory that states that all animals come from one (or a limited number of) origin animals and through millions of years of adadtaptions based on where they lived they would adapt to the 'pnacle' animal, namely humans

As an interesting side note, evolution is also fiercly racist, Darwin himself was quoted as saying that the 'civilized' races of humans would someday conquer the uncivilized. One of Darwin's contempararies went so far as to say that the average Negro is by no means equal to the average white.

Adolph Hitler has been cited as one of the world's most aggressive student of evolution, due to his desire to weed out the weake races.

I find this funny. Is there a question here or is it just an observation?

Let me throw the topic back at you, if I may. How much "proof" would it require in order for you to be swayed by evidence that evolution is a scientific fact? Is that even possible, for you? Indeed: if you named the evidence required; and I produced it, in a sound, honest and upfront fashion; would that then persuade you to conclude that evolution was real?

[Xaxyx]

How do I pronounce your name?

Very carefully.

We can always use another defender of truth and justice.

I'm tempted to purport that everyone on this forum is interested in defending both truth and justice, as they themselves perceive the concepts. That's sort of the point of the forum, in fact.

I don't believe you will ever sway Sir Gareth, he is a Knight of the Cross, and he would rather listen to fingernails on a chalkboard than impale himself on the sword of evolution. There is no argument he will accept. I apologize if I am out of line Sir Gareth, but I think I am right in making such a declaration on your behalf. Oui?

Thank you for your observation. I vastly prefer, however, to let individuals speak for themselves. Even if you what you say is true -- that this person is steadfastly devout to his beliefs, never to be swayed -- I'd still prefer to hear how he expresses this sentiment, as that in and upon itself can prove enlightening.

'evolution' as in the better, more accurate description 'adaptation' ... yea sure, it's there and can be observed, let's face it, that's all that Darwin observed anyways, no big deal really and requires minimal or no faith, but to believe the type of 'evolution' of animals jumping species or kinds, something that Darwin never observed ... no, that one requires a big jar of faith straight off the top shelf !

oh .. and hi there everyone, I'm only new

If you expect proof of evolution rather than just evidence, it is reasonable to expect proof of creation rather than just evidence. I've seen very little evidence of creation and certainly no proof.

What? You've never looked in a mirror?

Looking in the mirror neither proves evolution or creation. It proves it's a mirror.
