Black Lives Matter and the Racist theory of Evolution

[SavedWretch]

You also won't find any evidence in the Bible that Earth orbits the sun, that matter is composed of atoms, or that germs cause disease. The Bible isn't teaching us science.

Um, no. Biologists, including the vast majority of Christian biologists, accept evolution because it is by far the best explanation for what we observe in genetics, paleontology, comparative morphology, and biogeography. If we had a better model, we'd use it.

Actually the Bible does teach how we came to be...maybe you missed it? Gen 1 and Gen 2 ...clearly states God made Adam a person on the sixth DAY and it was good (not a toe and Adam evolved from it over billions of years ). How could whatever you believe Adam to be at that time other than a complete human being, be authorized to name all the animals by name if they haven't even evolved over billions of years). Come on, there is an agenda to want to squeeze unGodly evolution into God's Word. Gen1 clearly states God created "this" and "that"..there was evening, there was morning, day 1....and so on. Let's not forget God said after each mentioned creation at each specific day "It was good". A car manufacturer don't put iron ore on the conveyor belts and say "it is good"....no !, but once the car is complete, you can say it is good. Nowhere in the Word does God demonstrate incompletion in His part. God says, and it is...yes, complete!
May i ask sincerely, why do you want to fit evolution so badly into God's Word? Why can't you either believe as God says He made everything day by day within 6 days and rested on the 7th....or believe what evolution says that you came from monkeys/fish/bacteria over millions then billions then hundreds of billions of years (yea "science" is quite inconsistant right). Just the fact that evolution is really not a fact by testing it scientifically using the method we use to conclude if something is science or not....Scientific Method. Evolution has never been reproduced, observed, and is not consistent...so it fails the scientific method with flying colors. Evolution is theory atheists made up so they can live their sinful lives without consequences. Choose ye this day whom you'll believe...God, or confused men....

I've read it many times. I find it baffling that anyone would read those chapters as intended to be literal historical accounts of anything. That has nothing to do evolution -- it just comes with some familiarity with how ancient literature works.

May i ask sincerely, why do you want to fit evolution so badly into God's Word?

Because I'm a follower of Christ and because evolution is obviously true. This is like asking me why I want to fit the fact that the earth is a globe into God's word. If you tell me that I have to believe that the earth is flat to be a Christian (because hey, it sure sounds like that's what it's saying) -- well, I think that's your problem, not mine.

Just the fact that evolution is really not a fact by testing it scientifically using the method we use to conclude if something is science or not....Scientific Method. Evolution has never been reproduced, observed, and is not consistent...so it fails the scientific method with flying colors.

Might I ask exactly what your credentials are to be telling scientists what's science and what isn't? Every major research university and national academy of sciences, and every relevant science funding agency, scientific journal, and professional scientific society in the world thinks evolutionary biology is a part of science. You don't. Who is more likely to be right?

Evolution is theory atheists made up so they can live their sinful lives without consequences.

That is simply false. Repeating falsehoods doesn't make them true -- please stop repeating this one.

Choose ye this day whom you'll believe...God, or confused men....

I prefer to believe the world God actually made, not what somebody on the internet tells me.

it can't be proven that microscopic organisms case illness and disease either. Prety much anything you look at is in the end something that cannot be proven just a big accumulation of evidence. Somehow we all manage to get on with our day living with the unprovable theory of gravity and the unprovable atomic theory and so many others.

Oh don't kid yourself, many things pass the scientific method like proving gravity. If you drop a hammer, it will fall at the same speed EVERYTIME at 9.8 m/s/s. We can test it with consistent results, we can observe it.
Same with atoms....A transmission electron microscope can be used to see nanoparticles and atoms. It's observable and reproducible and consistent. Yes, we can't yet see the extra detail of the atom...but so far we know and see it's there like seeing a star in the sky at night. Some things can be proven...but theories like the anti-God evolution theory is a doodad

You believe what your liberal proffesors told you that evolution is "science". God's Word says something COMPLETELY different. God specifically says He created everything in 6 days and on the seventh He rested. God goes as far as to define the word for us..."
God created.....there was evening, there was morning, the first day"
"God created......there was evening, there was morning, the second day"....etc....setc.
No such thing as billions of years

Incorrect. My degrees are in English and physics, and as far as I can recall not one of my professors ever mentioned the subject of evolution. I am convinced that evolution is science because I'm a working scientists in a field (genetics) that intersects heavily with evolution, and I know just how powerful evolution is as an explanatory model for what we observe and just how vast a range of data supports it. I'd be happy to tell you about some of that -- if you're interested in discussion. (By the way, 'preaching' isn't an insult: preaching is the right thing to do if you're in a pulpit. I listen to a sermon every week at church and appreciate them very much. But this isn't a pulpit and you're not my minister.)

I would like to add. I have a stage 3 brain tumor that medicals could not surgically remove since it is rooted into the stem part of the brain. After the surgery where they could remove a sample to analyze in the lab as to what it was, they established it to be a tumor and put me on radio and chemo therapy. Ater that my cancer specialist looked me in the eye and said "i don't want to see you again, there is nothing else i can do for you"...after everything they gave me max 6 months to live as evidence suggested. It is now 9 months after my so called ultimate "death date". What's my point?...the biology department of science get it constantly wrong and some times they get it right. Can we put our trust in scientists?...from the biology part of science....no! I experienced it first hand. Mri scans show the tumor grew 400% February this year. Docs says it's a miracle in itself that i still work, play sport, talk normal, have total balance and rarely have minor headaches. They said they are dumbfounded.
This is another good reason to put your faith into the Creator and not science(His creation)

'On the Origin of the Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life' by Charles Darwin 1859

It's even in the title. Hopefully people will begin to see through this deceptive, racist book.

EDIT: 'Black Lives Matter' protest and attack many things, but the theory of evolution should be on their attack list. It's a racist theory.

That's an interesting point.

If Darwin used "Favoured Races" in the sense of most survivable, then
this sort of survival is cut free of morality-ethics. It is "survival" by ANY
means, including abuse of other races.

Note, that THIS understanding of "survival" is not compatible with
Christianity, and treating all people by applying God's moral-ethical
law, "without favoritism or partiality" as James says.

Slavery is not natural selection it is selective breeding. In Lexington for example they had comfort girls. In Louisville they produced field hands.

I am a Christian because with God we can go beyond what Science can do. We do not always get instant miracles. Sometimes miracles are slow and gradual over time as we continue to walk with God. Doctors know that when 97% die 3% are going to improve and get better. Often they do not take that 3% into consideration but there are doctors willing to work with people who want to walk with God. To trust and believe in Him so they can manifest their healing. Exp cancer is your own body attacking itself. It is not a foreign invaders. Some people need to resolve that inner conflict. In some cases cancer can be cured though diet and exercise. Although that plan was developed for heart disease.

I have a friend that battles Parkinson's. So I have done a little bit of research on the brain stem, the more primitive part of the brain and how it is effected by disease.

Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. A highly trained neurosurgeon, Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress.

Then, Dr. Alexander’s own brain was attacked by a rare illness. The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion—and in essence makes us human—shut down completely. For seven days he lay in a coma. Then, as his doctors considered stopping treatment, Alexander’s eyes popped open. He had come back.
