There's a good book called The Bone Peddlers which is worth checking out. It may annoy a Christian at times as he does argue against really dumb arguments put forth by some Christians and he does have a New Age feel to his views. However, he is most angry at the pro-evolutionary side and how they make patchy evidence into 100% proof. He thinks these people are lying to the public by making their theories seem way more certain than they are. The fossil record is much too mysterious for that. I would hope both sides of the debate could read the book with an open mind. I can't remember the authors name atm.

10 years ago I was so certain evolution was true. I would laugh at Christians arguing otherwise. I am disgusted by how arrogant I was made by experts talking about "this is 100% proof for X. No doubt" I understand the problems with the fossil record. And what does that say? When I was ignorant I was 100% behind evolutionary theory. As I knew more and more doubts started cracking that certainty. I am just glad Christians have the the testicular fortitude needed to push back against our Expert Class.

One of the things that opened my mind was the big deal made about Lucy. They never once explain to the public that actually we just don't know. Why can't they admit that to the public? I would be ashamed if the people I worked with were more concerned with pushing a narrative than trying to find the truth. I remember watching the scientist file away at the pelvic bones and adding things then tilting it and saying "Wow look evidence she walked upright!" Uhh didn't you just change the evidence first?

Sir Solly Zuckerman, a primate expert and materialist who considered the evolution of man from apes as self evident, nonetheless had a terrible opinion of most of the fossil evidence for Man's descent from apes and called it untrustworthy at best. Zuckerman's judgement of the professional standards of physical anthropology was not a generous one. Sir Zuckerman's judgement of their professional standards compared them to parapsychology at best and remarked, that the record of reckless speculation in human origins is so astonishing that it is legitimate to ask whether much science is to be found in this field at all." That is a damning indictment to bring against a whole field of science, but Sir Solly's measurements (to technical to go into) showed that the Australopithecines so called ability to walk upright was nothing more than the bias of the scientist (?) making the observation. I used to work with scientists like this. That Life just appeared from natural processes was not even questioned, it was self evident. I would point out that there must have been massive amounts of DNA/RNA so animals wouldn't be inbred. This idea needed some explanation as obviously it isn't happening now.

I am a highly educated (PhD... graduate from MIT... post-graduate at Oxford... published... etc.) My comment: The classic evolutionary theory is nothing more than a speculative paradigm lacking scientific evidence. In other words, it's "Academic propaganda" that delights atheists and scientific materialists. The early post-Darwinian reaction supports this as does more recent quotes: "Evolution makes me feel good about being an atheist."

I’m not sure of the point you’re attempting to make: 1. Even if evolution were not true, this would not prove the existence of any god. Whether or not one believes in evolution is independent as to whether or not any god exists. 2. How do you feel about Francis Collins, former head of the human genome project and founder of BioLogos, a Christian advocacy group that affirms evolutionary creation? One can believe in evolution and still claim to be a Christian.

Thanks and Congrats for the PhD. some notes from the talk. Ardi as a hominin when discovered was dated to about 4.5 million years of age. That means that she was exactly the age of her ancestral Apes and living together with them or even older than them. How could that be true when you find the Ar. ramidus with bipedal characters evolved from ancestors that she is almost older than ??? Not only that but you find the next evolved generation too Australopithecines with almost the same age dating. Any how, one need to see some signs of indication of a mental development left belong to this creature such as prime drawings or any sign that proves that such an agent has even any limited intellectual at all leading to human??

This was a very interesting talk. My problem would be with the idea that any human population could exist on the earth for many tens or hundreds of thousands of years without developing at least a Neolithic level of culture. If these populations had human language and abstraction abilities, why did they never develop any sort of mathematics or literature? Humans talk, believe in the divine or think about ultimate origins, do art, make music, build houses, etc. My understanding is that none of these things happened until maybe twenty or thirty thousand years ago. For many years, I have considered evolution to have serious problems with philosophical implications, since it asserts that humanity and human capacity developed in small steps, varying very much in different groups. To avoid the obvious racist implications, we would need to see humanity as a true "big bang" of our full suite of abilities, not anything a Darwinist view could explain.
@nicolassbrown9881 Жыл бұрын
There are indigenous groups still existing today, and many more in recent history, that never developed math and literature. But once exposed to education, they quickly learn the same intellectual abilities. There are no racist implications once you realise that the differences are cultural and not genetic. Darwin himself made this mistake, believing some races to be closer to apes in their intellectual and moral faculties, but he was only echoing the popular beliefs of the time.

There are many such big bangs in the fossil record where complex species simply appear suddenly without evolutionary precursors. It points to a designer creator installing various life forms on earth in various phases. Even though we don't exactly know how to match a literal 6 days creation with a millions of years fossil record there are too many coincidences in Genesis to simply write off as myth i.e. the universe creation big bang in Gen 1:1 followed by various life creation big bangs in the Days. We now know time is relative and can be warped, so maybe God did a local time warp around the earth, during those days...
