The vast complexity of living things proves that God exists (proof 1)
#43
RE: The vast complexity of living things proves that God exists (proof 1)
I've already written a rather long thread about the Watchmsker's Argument and Creationism:

http://atheistforums.org/thread-20901.html

Go read that, SBG. You won't? Okay, here's a summary:

At no place in history has it ever been shown that complex life forms simply "popped" into existence, already complex, especially not 6000 years ago. The Earth was created almost 4 billion years ago, and through evolution became more and more complex, until chemical reactions lead to the simplest life forms. As time went on, these life forms grew more and more complex, and life evolved in millions of different ways. Plant life developed, sea life developed, then amohibious life developed, constantly becoming more and more complex.

You see where I'm going with this? Eventually dinosaurs came and went, then mammals, then primates. Then, millions of years ago, the genus Homo evolved frome the primates, and man was born, but he was in no image of God, I assure you. Homo became more and more complex until the most complex Homo evolved, the homo sapien. But that was slmost 200000 years ago, not 6000. It took a lot of millenia before the sapien learned how to use more and more complex tools, and dpread across the Earth.

The development of man was a slow, laborious process. There is no evidence that we poppef into existence fully-formed 6000 years ago, then miraculously filled the Earth in just a couple thousand years. There is evidence of homo sapiens living in North America from 14000 years ago.

Science has proved that we didn't first appear fully formed. We EVOLVE over billions of years, becoming more complex as time moved on.

The Watchmaker's Argument has no clairvoyance here, where people have studied more than just one book.
"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.”

"Anyone wanting to believe Jesus lived and walked as a real live human being must do so despite the evidence, not because of it."
