I still cannot believe many of you do not see the religious nature of evolution.
According to good ol' Merriam-Webster, religion is:
quote:
(1) : the service and worship of God or the supernatural (2) : commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance
According to scientists, evolution is a model that explains the diversity of life on Earth through changing allele frequencies in populations via natural selection and random mutation.
I don't see what one has to do with the other, and I don't see where "god", "worship", or "supernatural" occur in the definition of "evolution."
If you want to expand the definition of evolution to be "anything that is believed", then where the hell do you stop? Democracy? That's a religion. Medicine? Religion. Science? Religion.
Your personal preference in ice cream flavors? That's a religion, too.
But the thing is evolution is not fact and has not been proven.
You keep saying that, but when we tell you:
1) That evolution is both fact and theory;
2) That nothing in science is ever proven, but;
3) Evolution is as well-supported as any other scientific model;
you can't seem to address those points substantially. That's starting to look dishonest to a lot of us, and moreover, it's against the forum guidelines:
quote:
Debate in good faith by addressing rebuttals through the introduction of additional evidence or by enlarging upon the argument. Do not merely keep repeating the same points without further elaboration.
If you don't understand what that means, here it is made simple - you have to stop saying "evolution is not fact and isn't proven" until you can address the three points I raised above.
You have to stop saying that because it's not true, as we've shown you. It's a lie. You don't get to just tell lies around here.
So what makes evolution anymore righter than creation?.
The fact that it
is a fact,
as well as a theory, and that as both it's supported by as much evidence as there is in support of the germ theory of disease or the kinetic theory of gases.
You don't get to just show up here and tell lies, Almeyda. And since we've been showing you that "evolution is not a fact and isn't proven" is a lie for some time now, the fact that you keep repeating it makes you a liar.
