I also believe in all of these: http://www.toptenz.net/top-10-most-famous-scientific-theories-that-turned-out-to-be-wrong.php

Well I do believe that there are changes in nature that alters the behavior,looks and lifestyle of different species,like how the Mammoths can be related to Elephants and how the formation of Dolphins came to be,but I find it difficult to say that the human race originated from Monkeys,though we have similar builds,I just find it strange to think about it when not all of them formed into humans like us.

evolution theory is proven right!

This isn't even worth an opinionated rant.

It's weird how some theists accept almost all other scientific research as unquestionable fact, but the second researchers find something that goes against theistic beliefs, everything scientists say is codswallop.

But scientist could of made all the evolution up. You never know because you AREN'T them!

Scientists could have made gravity up. After all, it just a theory.

Sorry no. "Gravity is a scientific fact, not a theory." just like ShakinBacon said. :P

The use of exaggeration to prove a point only fools some.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

How is it exaggeration if he said "some theists"? And it's true there are SOME theists that he describes exactly. His post isn't fooling, it's stating fact. The use of false accusations is annoying.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

That's not the part he was exaggerating.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Which part are you talking about?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Mainly, it implies that theists blindly follow whatever scientists say if it doesn't contradict the religion in question. In reality, theists usually believe scientists because much of what they say has large enough solid proof to be a legitimate idea. Evolution (macro, as it were) cannot be definitively proved. This is the reason most theists (and some atheists) do not follow macro evolution.

It's bullcrap.

YOU'RE BULLCRAP.

Yea, that made sense. xD

I believe that individual species can adapt to their environment and get better. But as far as humans evolving from apes .. .. that is bullcrap.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Show me where in the Theory of Evolution that it states we come from Apes, rather than we share the same ancestors.

I'm kinda in between. I think maybe God guided the process of evolution, either that or creation.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

The Catholic church has already stated that evolution is fully complies with the Catholic doctrines.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Thank you! The only people who believe in creationism are fundamentalists. Not devout Catholics.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I'd say SOLELY on creationism, but that's just me(:

by Anonymous 12 years ago

What do you mean? Fundamentalists are the only ones who believe solely in creationism? And what would you mean by that? Because I think that theists who believe in evolution, believe that God set forth evolution.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

So many of the Protestant groups are fundamentalists?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

All I know is that Catholics who actually follow Catholicism, aren't fundamentalists, though perhaps orthodox. I don't know about certain protestant groups, because I am not protestant. But if they follow genesis as a scientific text of how the world was made, they are fundamentalist Christians, no matter what denomination.

The problem with this whole evolution debate is that-- well I suppose I shouldn't make up a percentage-- is that most people don't actually understand the theory of evolution. Learn it objectively, and then you can decide if you believe in it or not.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Unfortunately for all theistic objections based on this outrageously misinformed tragedy, the phenomena in which scientists have arbitrarily called "evolution" taking place is not some sort of "act of faith"; It isn't contingent on the minds behind the painstaking studies carried out by scholars and scientists for centuries. Rather, the only thing that would be subjective, or entirely man made, are the definitions assigned by scientists to fit this phenomena that is still objectively happening whether theists agree or not. My point- evolution isn't a "belief", in the same respect that televisions aren't a "belief". One will be there with consciousness, and one will be there devoid of it. Seriously. It's as simple as that.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

You just said evolution exists because televisions exist. How is this an argument?
