Why is that despite of the fact that their is a lot of proof that man is a product of evolution the church did

Question

We believe that in the field of science, the professionals proof to us that the man is a product of evolution.

Answer 1

I agree, what IS the question? Is it "despite all the proof there is for evolution, why did the church (which church?) deny it?"

If that is the question then the answer is simple...Power. If there is evolution then we humans are just another ape. A dangerous, hairless, oversexed, ape that is way to smart at building weapons. It means that we are not above the rest of creation and do not have the right to do what ever the heck we want to with it just cause it pleases us or makes us rich.

It means we should look all the other animals in the eye and say "you are my brother/sister and I thank you for your service or sacrifice made for my good." It means we should realize that even if we become vegetarians that we are still killing our siblings (the plants) for food and shelter. It means that we are one with the rest of creation and not set apart from it.

And that would also mean that if "man" were not special then the priests of (pick your religion) would not be special either. If ordinary humans were not set apart and above creation then how could priests be set apart and above ordinary humans?

Answer 2

Actually, it's still called the "theory of evolution". If it was proved conclusively, why is it still called a theory? You know what I like the most about living in The US? That it's still okay for people to believe in whatever it is they want to believe in.

Answer 3

Evolution is the evidence that God created adaptivity.  

That's it. Nothing more. Everything after its own kind.

In other words, plant apple seeds and try to harvest

peaches from the trees that grow. Yea, my chickens are

a kinder gentler descendant of the tyrannosaurus Rex.

Why? Because there knees bend the same way? So do

the dogs and cats. Come now.

Answer 4

There is no proof of evolution, or at least not NATURAL evolution.  Take Darwin's own "proof" that evolution existed.  When Darwin returned from his famous voyage to the Galapagos Islands he started to breed pigeons.  With a very skilled breeder pigeons can be MANIPULATED to transform into a fantail, with feathers like a chineese fan.  It can be MANIPULATED into a pouter with a large crop bulging under its neck, or a Jacobin, with a "hood" of feathers on the back and sides of it's head.  Despite all of these variations, all of the birds were still pigeons (very different looking pigeons, but still pigeons).  These pigeons obliterate Darwin's own theory...because Darwinism stems from the belief that we all evolved from Apes who evolved from a simpler, less complex species, thus evolving the genetic makeup of the organism to eventually become human.  Humans may be similar genetically but not exact replicas.  Even a slight variation in DNA causes major changes (i.e. Down Syndrome).  Most scientist have dismissed Darwinism and it's out of date theories.  Darwin disproved his own theory in his pigeon experiment because while he formed different versions of pigeons, they were all still pigeons genetically, and not a new breed.  What "proof" do you have of Darwinism?  I have done my research and found NO proof whatsoever...

What say you???

Answer 5

Where did anything come from? The first organism? We just didn't come from nowhere. Yeah, there is evolution but there is more to it to that.

Answer 6

Hello,

Not all churches deny the possibility of evolution. The RC church has said there is no problem in believing in it for the last 60 years so long as one does not lose focus of the basics of Christianity and God.

Answer 7

Just christians, though.  It is very hard that their proof  (adam & eve) is wrong, give them time.

Answer 8

I believe that the two are not mutually exclusive. Evolution could well be creation-assume that the time as we percieve it is not as God percieves it.

Answer 9

I just wanted to correct Danny who seems like a bright person but just doesn't seem to understand evolution.  He cited Darwin's pigeons.   Artificial selection has been known for hundreds of years.  Dogs for example all came from wolves.  A chijuajua and a Great Dane are the same species but if they were wild, in a million years they would be separate species because they can no longer breed successfully, (Can they? Well not without some help).  Darwin didn't have a million years.   He only had several.  There is numerous evidence that man is the product of evolution and no evidence that he isn't except some peoples faith.

Answer 10

The reason people don't believe in evolution is either because they do not understand it, or do not WANT to believe in it.  They do not WANT to believe in it because it would imply that we are merely animals and that the Bible is not 100% literally correct (which it isn't anyway).  Giving them proof is not enough; they will always come up with a stupid response like "then why don't we see fish turn into mammals today?" or "If we evolved from apes then why are there still apes?"  Unfortunately, when you are brought up to be a narrow-minded person it is hard to change your views.  Ignorance is the main reason that so many Americans don't "believe in" the theory.  It may be best to just ignore these people, as they will not consider what you have to say.  Instead, educate the uneducated (before they become close-minded as well).

Not all Christians reject the theory of evolution, mainly those who are well educated and keep an open mind.

Answer 11

What is the question?

Answer 12

If i could get your question i could be able to try and answer you

Answer 13

Actually many who believe in evolution also believe in creationism.  How did Adam and Eve beget the girls following the sons, Cain and Abel and if they did have more children, was there incest or perhaps another clan that progressed along with God's prefered creation?  Are we all an experiment of free will?  In Genesis the angels find the women pleasing.  What percentage of us have these qualities or was it all wiped away with Noah and his family?  There are too many theories and questions to answer and prove on this earth, so we have to have faith that it will be answered in the next life, or we are doomed to only live this life and never see another.

Answer 14

Science is variable. It is not exact and 100 accurate. Remember they once told us the earth was flat.

Einstein believe in more than science he believed in imagination. "imagination is more powerful than knowledge" Albert Einstein

Evolution is a theory. Many believe it many others do not NO ONE IS CERTAIN
