[Debate] Do you guys believe in the big "E"?

[ComplexCity]

Don't see how someone asks ppl for their opinions and disregards what they say when they clearly gave an answer as to why they feel as though they do.


OT: I believe Evolution was created by God don't believe we came from a single celled organism nd then grew into the complex species we are now

 

[Punk Hazard]

Humans evolving from monkeys is a form of evolution. When he said evolution I assumed he was talking about that subject.

Ignorant: Lacking knowledge or awareness in general. How is my comment ignorant even though I said "Evolution as in things evolve over time I believe in" I was mentiong two different things. I brought up monkeys because that's a huge debate in evolution today. So clearly my comment wasn't ignorant.

Not a form that is accepted. Why would he be talking about a concept within the topic that the topic doesn't actually support or uphold?

 

[Joker]

I don't know what to believe.

Here's an example

God creates first mammal > Mammal evolves to a capybara

I thought so. Yeah it's hard for me to believe in that since I just don't believe in a God Lol.

It's about understanding. I want to question people on why they believe something. It would be an annoying world if people just said things and no one questioned them.

Didn't I say I assumed he was talking about it? You can't expect me to think the exact way you do.

So you throw facts out the window because of your belief? That's something I don't think is healthy.

Isn't healthy a opinion the way you're using it? Facts? Evolution in which we came from monkeys is a scientific theory. It's in no way shape a fact.

"I don't..." = opinion.

No. The fact they they have found a common ancestor makes it a fact, I'm certain. The common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees is called Pan Prior.

I'm going to believe in what I believe.

I respect your opinion I just want to know what drives such blind belief. If someone told you God wants you to murder kids would you do it? If the Pope said tomorrow that Mexican people are the devil reincarnated and we need to kill them all would you do it?

 

[Awkward Linguist]

[sub]Above 60% of the scientists there are in this world do no believe in the theory of Evolution. Whilst it does make some sense, I too think it's silly and don't believe in it as well.[/sub]​

I don't follow the pope or the Catholic faith. And I don't believe in religion. Believing in god doesn't equate to following religious texts.

 

[Jazzy Stardust]

It makes sense and seems connected to "The grand scheme" of things.

But I also don't believe it disproves anything people thought prior. Just more clues and details for life.

Is that your reason for not believing in evolution?

 

[Awkward Linguist]

[sub]There are a lot more reasons.[/sub]​

 

[Waindo]

Both the Big Bang/Evolution theory and the Biblical - God's creation theory hold about the same amount of sense. Close to none.

I'd say that's true for the biblical part but not for the former two.

Well the thread is to explain those reasons Lol.

[sub]You see I believe in God and I have a religion. Although that is not the reason why I disbelieve in the the theory of evolution, It's just that I see many inconsistencies within the theory it self. I do not believe in inconsistencies.[/sub]​

 

[paratise]

Yes i do as it gives the most logical answer to how this many species exist other than magical entity which placed them around.

And no it does not clash with creation or religion. Evolution and creation answer different questions. It does not hurt religios beliefs when people talk about it and Darwin was not a human to be resented atleast for this theory.

There are evidiences suggest Mendel have read Darvin's works. He took some notes and these notes do not show any hostility against Darwin and his theory of evolution. I would like to post source but i could not find a decent one online. I have read it from Edward Edelson's biography of Mendel i can not post pic since my book is not English.

 

[Anorien16]

Explain how you combine the two. I think I get what you mean but maybe not.

Actually Darwin did that himself ... Darwin at first assumed that it wld be wasteful for the creator to spend his energy to create variation of the same basic model and thus (assuming the creator being very wise) he created the base image of life forms and the system by which life suited itself to the environment.

Also funnily, most scientists actually believe in a creator or God ... but God doesnt necessarily have to be a magic sky daddy who absolves sins u commit on every friday at each sunday because you said sorry ... he or she or it can be something very different.

I believe that human beings want to "know everything" and become as omnipotent beings. Scientist are considered the as the closest thing to Gods and I feel like some try to tear ppl's belief or religion down and made to look foolish. Not saying that science is evil because I do believe that science to help us understand a lot on a human comprehensive level but when it comes to trying to disprove God (which will never happen) that's when it becomes a problem for me

I respect your opinion I just want to know what drives such blind belief. If someone told you God wants you to murder kids would you do it? If the Pope said tomorrow that Mexican people are the devil reincarnated and we need to kill them all would you do it?

Not really because if you did you would just leave it at the answer you he gave. You seem like the kind of person that likes to push ppls buttons when it comes to giving opinions that you don't like to hear but that's just me.
