I Believe in Evolution and God! Now don't get me wrong; I never said I believe in The Big Bang. Evolution has nothing to do with The Big Bang Theory other than the fact that Evolution is the Basis of The Big Bang Theory. Evolution and The Big Bang Theory are two completely different things, although they coincide in some aspects. You see, evolution influences the form and behavior of organisms to better suit their habit. Evolution happens when there is a change in the environment and the species or race has to adapt to it--thus can evolve into a distinctly new species. Many people have the wrong idea of Evolution; immediately thinking of The Big Bang Theory. I suggest you do more research.
And no, I don't believe we evolved from apes.
I thought you might like to know that, in all innocence and sincerity, you are buying into one of the major, well, lies, of evoltuion. This is the lie that creation of a new species equals evolution. Speciation was observed and studied long before Darwin who, in truth, never showed any origin of any species ever in his misnamed book.
All living things have the ability to adapt, but only to a certain extent. Evolutionists never even touch on where that ability comes from, how it got there since there is no evolutionary explanation. For example, why is it possible to get a new color of a fflower, one never seen before, or say, to create a new ruffle on the edge of the tuplip? Because already inside that flower there are genes that can be shuffled and manipulated by either human intervention or outside circumstances.
Again, these changes are limited. They go as far as creating new species. As I said earlier, 200 species of bees, though, are still bees. Everyone of them. Darwinists want you to believe the bee, or whatever, just keeps changing farther and farther until you have a nonbee, until a lizard turns into a bird, an ape into a man.
First, there is zero fossil evidence that any such thing has ever happened. I heard Ken Miller, world famous evoevangelist, say "Tiktaalik is as good as it gets for a transitional form." But it isn't "transitioning" into anything! It is 100% a lobe finned fish. They tell you they know what happened to it's descendants, based on fancy words like "similar homology" and "has characteristics of", but there is zero evidence for any such thing! For all they know Tik was the last of its kind, another of innumerable dead end, extinct, species. They have no evidence it led to tetrapods, yet they tell you it led to tetrapods! Do you see something wrong with that picture?
When people tell you they can look into the past and tell you how organisms invisible descendants' invisible descendants' reproduced, you are out of the realm of science and into the world of magical thinking.
Now, what would you have to do to get a fin to turn into a foot. (And, no, walking fish do not have feet. They are 100% fish with 100% fins that function in a novel way and there is 0 evidence they will ever be anything but fins on a fish.) You would have to have new DNA. To turn a fin into a bigger fin, or a fin that can act somewhat like a foot, you simply need to shuffle genes that
already exist inside the animal, or maybe eliminate them. When this happens often enough you will get a new species....of fish only. But, fish don't have genetic info for legs, just as lizards don't haved genetic info already inside for wings, and apes don't have info inside for things unique to humans. New DNA would have to be created to enable them to make those changes.
DNA is astronomically complex and lengthy coded information. The evoltutionists haven't a clue where it came from. It is never seen to be created in our world. That is what you need to turn a fin into a foot. And it would require incredible amounts of it becuase you wouldn't have to just change the fin, you would have to change the cortex which gives instructions on how to move, the arteriies that would need new blood pathways, new nerves for both sensory and motor purposes....welll, the list just goes on and on. There is no way a random process of nature is going to be able to coordinate, much less cause, all that.
Ever hear that song, "The leg bone's connected to the...."? In order for a fish to get a working foot it would need innumerable body parts already prebuilt and functioning in codependent and interdependent way. That's not gonna happen by accidents of nature. You can't build up the cortex and wait until it's complete, while building up the nerve pathways, and wait for them to be complete, etc. etc. and hold them all in limbo through evoltuioin until they can all work synchronously together. The idea is absurd & has no data whatsoever to back it up. Every creature is irreducibly complex at the cell level on up.
Look at the gazillions of bacteria & algae & other microorganisms around the world, multiplying at rocket rates. Yes, sometimes they change their species, but they all stay bacteria, algae etc.! There is no evoltuion, no algae turning into non algae, etc., seen anywhere. Not in labs, not in the fossil records, not even with intelligent design through human manipulation.
Speciation is seen. That's it. And you need more than that to get any climbs up Darwin's so called "Tree of Life." And guess what? All his finches are still finches & there is 0 evidence they have ever been or ever will be anything else but finches.
In sum, natural selection and speciation are not examples of evolution. Nothing is an example of evolution because it never, ever happens.
Oh, and mutations, in additioin to natural selection, are said to be the other vehicle for evolution. No evidence for that either. Mutations are generally harmful, usually small,
isolated events, and never ever are seen to build on one another to create new structures like leggos. Nowhere do we see them doing something like turning a leg into a wing, or doing much of anything impressive, really. They don't cause evolution and you will never be shown a single example of that, only "might have....millions of unobservable & unverifiable years ago...likely....probably....and we're gonna treat all those speculations and conjectures as if they are actually scientific evidence (since shhhh, we don't have any real evidence at all!!)"
B.S.!
Praying for you to come into a deep knowledge of the truth of these matters.
