I Am An Atheist! Ask Me A Question!

[Darwinian]

ok ur the only one who gave me a real answer , i don't know about the m-theory but the big bang is kind of a fact for muslims , its written in quran 1400 years ago so nothing new with that.

With the greatest respect, it only seemed to make sense after Edwin Hubble came up with the idea. I'm familiar with the passages that you are referring to and it's a huge leap of the imagination that's needed to interpret them in this way.

If the Quran really does predict the Big Bang theory why did it not form the basis for a scientific theory centuries ago when Islam was at the centre of scientific study. Unfortunately, like many of these things, they can only be interpreted a certain way after the event and not before.

i have questions about evolution , if we evolved from monkeys to humans , why theres still monkey out there ? why didnt they evolve with us ?

They did evolve with us.

There was an early ancestor to all primates and we all went down different branches. One branch led to Chimps, another to Gorillas, another to humans and so on.

This idea that a lot of people have that monkeys simply turned into humans is quite wrong.

If you could travel back in time, say, a few million years of course you wouldn't find any humans as we are today. Instead you would find a range of human like species called hominids. Eventually all these species would go extinct except one. The only surviving hominid that exists today is of course us, Humans.

You would also not find any Chimps or Gorillas or Orangutans or any other of todays apes and monkeys because they had not evolved either. You would of course find their ancestors.

Go back even further and you find the ancestors of both monkeys, apes and hominids. Even further and you find a species that led to all primates, including lemurs.

They don't call it the tree of life for no reason. You see, each species on Earth has its own branch, so Humans have their own, so do other primates. Following all these branches down you get back to the common ancestor of all primates.

The following image is highly simplified, but hopefully you get the idea.

Another misconception is the idea that a species has to die out in order for a new one to evolve. Using our tree analogy, just because a main branch grows new one does not mean that the main branch has to die off, although the evolutionary pressure that caused the new branches to grow usually means the main branch is endangered.

why we couldn't see any creature evolution for more than 5000 years ?

Evolution is generally a slow process and relies upon changing environments to work it's best. If the environment remained static then there would be very little evolutionary pressure on animals to change.

The plague, or black death is a good example of evolution that cannot be easily detected. Most of the people living in and around Europe are direct descendants of those who survived the plague and as such have a greater resistance to it. This is evolution selecting for survival.

However, if you want to see evolution at work today then you need only look a the world of bacteria and virus's. There are brand new species of these appearing all the time which is why we are constantly having to develop new vaccines and antibiotics.

does that mean in million years were suddenly might grow wings or something ??

No.

Nothing is going to suddenly do anything. That's not how evolution works. I'd love to explain all about the evolution of birds from small tree dwelling raptor like dinosaurs but I think I'll leave that for another day...
