Let me be clear... I was obviously not trying to sway any opinions on this forum, as most of you have done a lot of research - much more than me. I apologize if it seemed that way. I do agree with all of your criticism; I didn't really know anything much about evolution and cosmological science before a week ago. This was written for a senior class in high school English... Of course it would not be acceptable in any sort of university science class.
It would be absolutely laughable this was seen as "proof" of a higher power. This is a 7 page research paper - even 1000 pages would not be adequate for some.
Yes I was trying to say to much at once, which makes it probably boring and aside from the topic, but this was solely written to arouse some sort of curiosity. "I'll start taking OP seriously when can correctly explain what evolution is and how it works." Indeed, this would be a mistake if you did, lol.
And yes a realize that there are most likely many fallacies if you look at my reasoning to be absolute fact. I suppose I should have done a better job in writing the essay. My purpose was to introduce skepticism on the theory, not a disproval of it all together. Like I said, that would be preposterous.
Note that when I say, "...the scientific community is corrupt", I am not saying popularized science necessarily false, at all. What I was trying to say is that the main voices control the community. The voices happen to have the same opinion, as well. My point is that there are other theories, which you might be aware of, that aren't publicized because they contradict the existing ones. My target audience for the writing was for uneducated people; people who would not know that there are other theories. I'm assuming you guys have looked at various theories on both sides, and rightly so. I'm not offended at all; I am fully aware that you guys know more. It is my personal decision, regardless of my ignorant knowledge, to believe in a deity. I sure hope you guys don't disagree with that.
Oh, and all of you seem like scientists. What are your professions and degrees?
