Let's begin at the beginning shall we? Atheism is a lack of faith in god. Evolution is not necessary to my lack of belief in god. There is no proof or even suggestive evidence for the existence of god. Period. Full stop. No big bang, evolution, or abiogenesis required.
Evolution is, however, a threat to many people's belief in god. I'll save whether it's a faith (it isn't) for another post. I'm busy making dinner and I'm willing to bet someone else will take the problem of faith on.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
So to cut a long story short your alternative theory is that god said the word "be" to some dust and that's how life began?
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them. Impersonation is treason. RE: Is Evolution a science or a faith?

Winning? Morals?
Didn't think it science was a game or a race. When you throw god as the default answer, it does make the above infinitely more feasible. Since when are morals the work of god. There's still a lot to learn from science ... We can barely make it to a rock 300,000 miles from earth. Science is not claiming we understand how everything works. I don't even necessarily believe that life on earth began exclusively on earth. But to fall back to the lazy explanation every time it's convenient, then we'd still be in the middle ages teaching the fine arts of alchemy.

Wow. Not reading all that text but to answer your question, the theory of evolution is a body of scientific facts, not faith.

You could have saved yourself so much time typing by simply saying "I don't understand what evolution is or how it works so it doesn't neener neener". Because that's what that giant trailer full of verbal vomit amounts to. Fuck off until you have an argument that isn't completely stupid. |
