The Truth About Evolution

The Theory of Evolution
Since the beginning of creation, all mankind has been without excuse as to the existence of God and creation, however scientists and others who refuse to admit that fact have come up with the theory of evolution. While people and all of life itself evolves, meaning it develops or changes gradually, such as an embryo changing itself into a new born baby, most people have the wrong idea of what the creation/evolution question is all about. They don’t understand the real issues involved and think that evolution is a scientific theory.

The theory of Evolution, and it is a theory, which has never been proven, or based on any scientific fact, at its most basic hypothesis has NO need of a Creator. Without the need of a Creator, you throw out the Book of Genesis, deny the fall of man into sin, and have no need of a Savior in Jesus Christ. EVOLUTION and the belief in CREATION cannot coincide with each other.

Naturalists at the beginning of the 1800s, studying fossils suspected that some kind of evolution had given rise to living things around them. However, they had no unifying theory to explain how evolution might have occurred. Two scientists led the way in the search for a mechanism of evolution.

The first systematic presentation of evolution was put forth by the French scientist Jean Baptiste de Lamarck (1774-1829) in 1809. Lamarck described a mechanism by which he believed evolution could occur. This mechanism was known as "the inheritance of acquired characteristics." His Example: He assumed that there were salamanders living in some grasslands. Lamarck argued, that these salamanders had a hard time walking because their short legs couldn't trample the tall grasses or reach the ground. He believed that these salamanders began to slither on their bellies to move from place to place. Because they didn't use their legs, the leg muscles wasted away from disuse and the legs thus became small. Lamarck's theory said that the salamanders passed this acquired trait to their offspring. In time the salamander's legs were used so rarely that they disappeared. Thus, Lamarck argued, legless salamanders evolved from salamanders by inheriting the acquired characteristic of having no legs. Lamarck presented no experimental evidence or observation and his theory fell out of scientific favor.

However, another scientist, British naturalist Charles Darwin (1809 - 1882) who was a famous naturalist born in England, is mainly attributed to this theory. Darwin, theorized that all life is related and and has descended from one common ancestor, meaning that man, animals, and plant life, is all related. Darwin's Theory of Evolution, as presented in his book "Origin of Species" has been widely accepted as fact, although it is based on Darwin's fallible speculations. His critics write, "If the theory of natural selection of Darwin is correct, why can't we see the intermediate forms of species, the connecting links?" Darwin did not have the answer nor the archeological evidence to back it up. Although there is ample evidence for many species, fossil records provide almost no evidence for the intermediate connecting links. Later, scientists revised Darwin's theory with their "Punctuated Equilibrium" evolutionary theory, supposedly making evolution invisible in the fossil record. Yet this theory is not verifiable in any way and is highly speculative.

Evolutionists often challenge Creationists to come up with their own scientific explanation for origins. The only explanation the evolutionist will accept, however, is a materialistic one. Since the act of Creation was clearly a miraculous event, there can be no materialistic explanation. Whether or not we find the evidence for Creation compelling depends on our willingness to accept the Biblical revelation of an omnipotent and omniscient God. As we have seen, many scientists have great difficulty accepting the idea that some things may not have a natural explanation. They do not seem to fear the unknown so much as the unknowable. This threatens the pride and sovereignty of natural man who from the time of the fall wishes to be as gods deciding for him self what is right and wrong.

Below you will find links to the pages I created on the theories that Darwin based his studies on and how they can not be proven. This is only basic information about these studies, I do not go into detail with them. This is for informational purposes only, I will not continue to corrupt myself nor my readers with every theory that tries to prove evolution to be true. These scientist take creation and make up their own conclusions based on bits and pieces of information just as people corrupt the Bible in the same manner. Creation is a wonderful and beautiful gift from God, whom took the time to make each and every man, woman, child, animal, plant, and even rock in it's own image.
