Evidence God Exists

[The_Flying_Skeptic]

Without further ado, here’s the evidence: Humans are the only species, out of millions of species, which have evolved into an intelligent life form. Other species live pretty much to eat and sleep -- survival. If our evolution were only a result of natural selection, shouldn’t other species, or even just one, have evolved into intelligent beings after millions of years? But the fact is that no other species have been able to develop science, literature, art, music and intelligent thought process as humans have. Isn’t this evidence that God exists?

Yes it is, and for several reasons. For one thing it corroborates what’s written in the bible, which is that God created man in his image, and that animals are inferior. But to truly understand why my evidence points towards a deity one needs to be able to appreciate the grandness of this gift that is human intelligence. And you have to ask yourself, why are we the only species, out of millions, that have achieved this type of intelligence? Evolution is about natural selection, but shouldn’t at least one other species, out of millions, have benefited from intelligence? I think so. And there would be a myriad of other intelligent species if there were no God. If you can appreciate the grandness and uniqueness of human intelligence, then you’ll understand why only humans were given this gift, and you'll know why what I've outlined here points to a God.

Everything before the quoted was just a waste of time, Tough Cookie.

We live to eat and sleep: You're talking about eating and sleeping as if we didn't depend on them as much as all other mammals do (if not every living organism). There are humans that don't have time to appreciate literature, science, and art because they must continuously worry about their survival. We are certainly not the only species that has benefited from intelligence - Dolphins are too very social and intelligent mammals. Do dolphins appreciate art, literature, and science? I can't say that they appreciate literature or science but they have been documented for making ring bubbles to play with all on their own which can be interpreted as an appreciation for art or a desire for entertainment because they are intelligent and they are their own and not zombies for some deity. We could talk more about the intelligent behaviors of many other organisms, but I think I've 'refuted' your strange argument that a deity must exist because we are the only organisms with intelligence and appreciation for art. More accurate is to say that we are unique in the sense that we are the only species that has developed language (which is different from 'a form of communication' since other species still communicate).

I appreciate the intelligence and uniqueness of every species.

Imagine a world where the Chameleon says a deity must have created it for its unique ability to camouflage with its surrounding.
