PREVIEW * 1. What change has occurred in some areas in recent decades? FOR thousands of years, the majority of people in the world seemed to have some form of religious belief.

[/quote] You can believe in God the Creator and evolution at the same time by stating that God created the mechanisms through which evolution occur. The two are not mutually exclusive. I got into a huge argument with one of my undergrad professors when I said this. He said that the theory of evolution by natural selection leaves no room for a creator. My response was that there is no way to rule out something which is infinitely beyond the grasp and reason of humans. You cannot rule out something which is unknown. I say to you, evolution by natural selection is pretty ironclad. I also say that God, the watchmaker, is the source of these mechanisms. [/quote] Evolution is not a mechanism it's a[i]science fiction fantasy[/i] with zero fossil trails proving that which Darwin honestly admitted. So is natural selection, it doesn't exist, just [i]words[/i], no new species was ever created by a [i]phantom[/i] [i]of the imagination[/i][/i] because a different one died off. [/quote] That is literally the dumbest thing I have ever read on GLP. I don't believe that you have studied evolution properly. The science has progressed extensively since Darwin! Your post is absolute nonsense. I hear you delete posts if you don't like or agree. Can you imagine how religion has been manipulated over centuries? It wouldn't surprise me in the least if you were to manipulate how your thread is received by others. Making it look as though you go unchallenged by removing what challenges you, is cowardly and deceitful. [/quote] I delete posts because of vile language. Your failure to recognise the phantoms of 'evolution and natural selection' is proven by your inability to defend them, even in your own [b][color=red]science fiction Neverland so you resort to empty subject diversion babbling tactics hoping no one will notice your mind manipulation making it look as though you go unchallenged by removing what challenges you, is cowardly and deceitful.[/color][/b] :blahblah5: [/quote] What "babbling" did I do? Is there something YOU failed to understand? Diversion? Manipulation? Nope...none of those. I leave that for man-made religion! What you call fiction is fact. There is a shitload more evidence that evolution is fact than there is that your religion is true. I haven't even BEGUN to "defend" evolution! And to be honest, there is no need to. You won't accept the facts and you are already brainwashed to dismiss anything that suggests you are wrong in your beliefs. I'm OK with that. But, don't pretend that you disregard evolution based on an education in the subject. It is obvious that you have no such thing! You are ignorant. [/quote] Zero fossil trails of any species turning into a bigger better one. Your pitiful science fiction religion, [i]faith [/i]that [b][i]mutation makes it better[/i][/b] is because you won't accept the facts and you are already brainwashed to dismiss anything that suggests you are wrong in your beliefs.
