There’s this whole Jack Chick knockoff world that has been around for decades despite having the worst arguments.

    What’s amazing is that evolution is such a beautiful process. If anyone is of a religious bent, it should really only strengthen their beliefs, not threaten them in any way.

        Don’t kid yourself. These people have never read any religious book in their life. They parrot whatever stupid shit Fox and right wing media spews around.

        We barely estimated the age of the world, if there is a thing that we know better it’s the natural evolution. On the topic of the universe, we have a much better understanding of it tho, and we know it is at least about 13.7257 billion years (yes i searched it), certainly not … a couple of thousands years old. The universe however has an inner beauty that I can’t replicate. A beauty that a creationist cannot understand. Maybe it’s fair to say that nautural unintentional processes are in fact higher above what they came up with. I had a pocket booklet with all the constellations and the nebulae and galaxy…I want it so badly now.

        Well it may not always produce what we call perfection, certainly there are things about our bodies that could be better. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t an elegant and beautiful process.

      The ones who deny evolution don’t understand that you can have evolution and god at the same time. Problem is that these people (not all religious people ofc) want their book of fairy tales to be true not understanding (or not wanting to understand) that those events aren’t real.

        If I remember right, Darwin wasn’t anti-religion and was in fact a constant church goer. So when I recently saw a bumper sticker showing Darwin’s gravestone and stating “Guess Darwin found out he was WRONG,” it left me utterly scratching my head.

        Darwin didn’t say anything about god not existing or that evolution meant that god didn’t exist. For him, I’m sure, evolution was the process god himself designed to propogate life forms and diversity on earth. I don’t think religion and evolution have to be in competition with each other.
