You are off track.
I am talking about the contradiction of believing in two opposite.
How can anyone believe in evolution when at the same time not believing in consciousness progress and evolution which can only come from lower form of life to higher form of life and therefore comport reincarnation.
How can you expect to get a higher form of consciousness in just a life time?
Where this higher consciousness suppose to come from?

There is no 'conscious progress' in evolution.

Evolution is an unthinking process that selects organisms that are more suited for survival and reproduction success. And it selects against organisms that are not.

Evolution does not have a goal to create a being with higher consciousness.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

Gee, your blind faith in this kind of dogma is behind belief.
You are putting totally different things inside the same soup pot hoping to get a good result.
You are putting body, mind and consciousness in the same pot when in reality they have totally different vibrations or level of perception.
Your consciousness will end up there where there is a proper medium for housing it so if your medium is represented by your father then you will be born in that medium with that DNA.
But unfortunately your DNA is far too far for understanding all this.Angel

And you have no evidence for any of this - it's almost as if you are relying on faith.

There is EVIDENCE for evolution, dickhead. There is none for your fucking bible. I'm sure you will never get it but then, you are a hopeless case.

So much wrong with this, but...

Many atheist believe that by a strange and mysterious combination one born as a human out of nothing due to him-her and other born as plants, worms, insects or animals also out of nothing.
In this way there is no evolution of consciousness.

Ah, you ignorant and insufferable imbecile, how about you educate yourself for a while, before blurting out your idiocy? The part I bolded, where did you get such a silly notion? Evolution says nothing about 'higher' or 'lower' beings, that's once again a philosophical notion, that has no place in the realm of biology. Your opinion of what's a higher being or a lower one is absolutely irrelevant and you are way off your mark.

I live in the country with the best education in the world and my biology grades have always been superb. What's your excuse?

Stop tripping and start quoting sources. I say that everything in the human is coded by DNA, followed by environmental triggers. Try and prove me wrong. "Vibrations".. Fucking hippie!
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

-Stephen Jay Gould
