Want to learn about evolution? Take a free course

[Speedwell]

Evolution is unfounded, unbiblical and 100% satanic.

Do you have any reasons for that opinion?

Do you have any reasons for that opinion?

Becuase it goes completely against the Bible. I will not accept "scientists" telling people that they come from apes and more primitive creatures, among other things. I see it as another tool used by satan to deceive people.

It's also used as a tool for medical and agricultural research. I guess it's multi-functional like that.

Deceive them about what?

A limited version of it, known as microevolution, is.

It's extended version is not.

In fact, my eye doctor, who is a YEC, has a very successful practice.

Not sure what you mean by "extended version". But if you're talking about common descent, that is in fact an applied science in the fields which I mentioned.

 

[AV1611VET]

Deceive them about what?

For starters, in the following areas:

1. common ancestor vs common designer
2. deep time vs shallow time
3. uniformitarianism vs catastrophism

 

[AV1611VET]

Not sure what you mean by "extended version".

Macroevolution.

 

[pitabread]

Macroevolution.

Like I said, it's an applied science.

 

[AV1611VET]

Like I said, it's an applied science.

I don't care what it is.

Like Danoded said, I too see it as another tool used by Satan to deceive people.

 

[Speedwell]

For starters, in the following areas:

1. common ancestor vs common designer
2. deep time vs shallow time
3. uniformitarianism vs catastrophism

Those are all deceptions that creationists are trying to work on the rest of us. The cruelest of these is #1, that it must be a common ancestor OR a common designer.

 

[AV1611VET]

Those are all deceptions that creationists are trying to work on the rest of us.

We call it truth.

 

[Speedwell]

We call it truth.

No doubt. So evolution is a satanic conspiracy against conservative Evangelicals. Do you think that your Poster Boy's loss in the Senate election on Tuesday is down to Satan as well?

 

[Danoded]

Deceive them about what?

The truth of God's creation of Earth and everything in it.

 

[pitabread]

I don't care what it is.

Of course you don't. But keep in mind that being ignorant of a subject does not lend validity of one's opinion of a subject.

Like Danoded said, I too see it as another tool used by Satan to deceive people.

That seems rather silly. But I guess one can find Satan wherever they choose to look.

 

[Speedwell]

The truth of God's creation of Earth and everything in it.

But the theory of evolution does not deny God's creation of Earth and everything in it.

 

[Danoded]

But the theory of evolution does not deny God's creation of Earth and everything in it.

Yes it does, it goes against God entirely. God created every creature that exists on Earth, and He created man to have dominion over all of them. Never is it mentioned evolution taking place, nor does it coincide with anything the 'theory' brings across.

Does this then mean, you feel the majority of Christians who agree with evolution, are going against God?

 

[Danoded]

I believe that evolution goes directly against God, and is unfounded and unbiblical.

 

[pitabread]

It makes me wonder if creationists learning about it might help dispel the fear some appear to have about the subject.
