Debate as to why we should believe in it.

I'll chime in with my own thoughts later.

Evolution has been proven to have happened. We have observed animals mutate and evolve. We are not 100% positive as to why they evolve. Is it gradual genetic mutations as Darwin hypothesized? Or is it something else? This is why we still call it a theory.

It is a well-grounded theory.

There have been numerous threads exactly the same as this, and all that is going to happen is someone will throw God in and thats a sure de-rail.

*Throws God in*

But jesus told us that he saved us from sin, so evolution cant exist. Also god loves you, so science is faulted.

He's right kids, I do love you.

Oh shit.

GIVE ME A HUG.










Now.

I would call for help, but honestly... Who could help me in this situation?

satan .

Hes always asking for payment for situations like this anyways. And I'm not so sure he wouldn't just fuck me after he saved me.

Evolution is such bull shit.
How anyone could believe it, is beyond me.

Bloodfruit, go die.


"No matter how many times the results of experiments agree with some theory, you can never be sure that the next time the result will not contradict the theory. On the other hand, you can disprove a theory by finding even a single observation that disagrees with the predictions of the theory. As philosopher of science Karl Popper has emphasized, a good theory is characterized by the fact that it makes a number of predictions that could in principle be disproved or falsified by observation. Each time new experiments are observed to agree with the predictions the theory survives, and our confidence in it is increased; but if ever a new observation is found to disagree, we have to abandon or modify the theory."
-Stephen Hawking

No matter how much a theory is proven right, even one contridictive observation will make it incorrect, an event upon which scientists must either adjust it to fit this observation, or leave the entire theory behind.

I'd be interested to hear an observation that contridicts evolution.

Yeah, I suppose a well-evolved species would never be stupid enough to write a book like that.


But wait... Who's to say we're well-evolved? Hundreds of medical problems can be explained by showing that we evolved for millions of years as quadripeds and then suddenly our spines curved up in the span of a few thousand years and we started walking upright. Your mom probably has lower back pains because she's supposed to be walking on all fours. I wouldn't try suggesting that to her, though, because she may be PMSing at the time.
