Let's play like we're all standing in a driveway looking at a nice car, let's say a Chevy Tahoe, just for mental purposes. If you're a creationist, you might believe (if that Tahoe was a lifeform) that a Supernatural Creator miraculously created it fully-formed and fully functional, ready to drive. This scenario, of course, seems, improbable, impossible -- not to mention repulsive -- to evos in here.
But is the atheist alternative actually less miraculous or more probable?
Think about it:
Instead of one giant miracle, whereby the whole vehicle appeared miraculously out of seemingly nowhere, what evos expect us to believe is that all the tiny little Tahoe parts somehow appeared out of nowhere, for no reason, at different times throughout history. All the nuts and bolts and engine parts, all the leather and seatbelts and buckles, all the lights and speakers and carpet, all the wires and brake pads and shocks -- all appeared by accident, out of nowhere, and for no purpose. Cute little miracles, all.
But how is this any less miraculous? We all know there's a Tahoe sitting in the driveway -- how is it any less miraculous if the Tahoe gets created whole, all at once, or if it gets piece-mealed together over time? Just because the pieces are small does not make their origin out of nowhere any less miraculous.
Of course atheist evos will attempt to confuse the issue by saying these parts don't actually arise out of nowhere, that they arise out of DNA changing, but ultimately, there is no difference. All they're doing here is pushing their lack of evidence under the rug, somewhere we can't see it.
But now the question would change to: where does the information come from in DNA that creates a new seatbelt or a horn (sticking with our car analogy)? No matter how you slice it, the information, whether you are a creationist or an evolutionist, has an unverifiable, unscientific source: Evos call it lucky nothingness, creationists call it a supernatural God, neither of which can be seen. (Interestingly, both information and God are non-physcial...so if you choose to deny one on the basis that it's non-provable, then you must also deny the other.)
So you evos who keep laughing at creationists really should be laughing at yourselves, because you are no more intelligent, no more scientific, no more rational, no less religious than creationists are. Your thing is, you just simply don't believe in God, which is an act of faith (or non-faith). But just because you don't believe in God does not make your argument any more scientific, proven by the fact that no one can seem to present a genetic mutation that creates/adds a floormat, a speaker, a lung, an eardrum, or any other structure. Neither can you present a mutation that adds parts of these. Mutations are not your savior. They are not creators, therefore you are stuck without one, which effectively falsifies your position. My position has not yet been falsified.
