If everything on earth was one species...that would be compelling argument -against- the theory of evolution.
Genetic variation, for starters.
yes but why there are genetic variations is what is debatable , you just dont want to question your religion
No, it's actually not debatable. We understand it fully. *I* understand it fully, because I'm a degreed expert in evolutionary biology, and there are many who understand it much better than I do. We question it constantly. That's what science is.
If this understanding is a religion, then Gravity is a religion, nuclear fission is a religion, relativity is a religion, germs are a religion...
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
