Is Evolution a science or a faith?

[pocaracas]

Today, I got a link to a playlist of TED talks, the 20 most viewed, or something like that.
In one of them, there was a guy talking about motivating people to buy a product from some company and he outlined what he called the "golden circle": a 3 concentric circles bulls-eye.
At the center, he put "why", in the middle he put "what" and at the outermost layer, he put "how".
And he said that most companies work from the outside inwards.
But the truly great companies work from the inside out.

So, back to these creatards. If we want to captivate them, we have to make them understand "why" we think the way we think, "why" evolution is correct... only then can we say what evolution is and how it works.
"why", the motivation that makes everything else fall in place.

We've been going at this all wrong, probably due to the creatards' fault always starting the conversation on some "conceived" faults of evolution... we keep showing them "how" evolution works and a bit of "what" it is..... we never show them "why". Our inner reason to accept it.

So, "why" is evolution right? "why" should I consider evolution? (Remember, this is not a "how" nor "what" question!)

- Beats me if I can verbalize it!
Perhaps it's because we need of a way to catalog all life on this planet and make sense of why it is as it is, why we see animals and plants like what they are?
Why do we see very similar animals, but with slightly different features... features which seem very well suited to the particular environments in which these different animals inhabit...?
I'd say this is the first level of acceptance of evolution, as it can provide an answer to these questions... a tangible answer, one we can easily visualize, even if it requires some imagination into long stretches of time.... but not too long, so it seems plausible that, as sexual reproduction mechanisms produce offspring with slight variations of features over their parents, the accumulation of such variations would, in time, given enough generations, lead to some form of adaptation to a particular environment.

And I got stuck in the "how" answer... darn!
I leave this to someone better in tune with the question. Best of luck!

MIND AND COSMOS:
Why the Materialist Neo-Darwinian Conception of Nature Is Almost Certainly False
Thomas Nagel

He is your brother in FAITH

Thomas Nagel (/ˈneɪɡəl/; born July 4, 1937) is an American philosopher, currently University Professor of Philosophy and Law at New York University, where he has taught since 1980. His main areas of philosophical interest are philosophy of mind, political philosophy and ethics.

What does he know of biology and science?
Oh, very little!!

Your insistence on this author is then the fallacy called "Argument from (or appeal to) authority".

How can someone misunderstand something so much??!!!??

Your deep desire to refuse existence of God, brought you to the false believes in the Theory of Evolution.

Your deep desire to assume the existence of a god has brought you to the false notion that the Theory of Evolution is erroneous.
