Why America does not believe in Darwin (part 2)

utorak, 8. ožujka 2011.

In 2005. testing was conducted in 34 countries on the percentage of adults who accept evolution. U.S. to 33 place, just above Turkey. However, high school students in the U.S. with his understanding of the science and mathematics under every European and Asian nations. These results are clear: the United States build a civilization of ignorance.

Here's what we know. We know that the universe is vastly older than the Bible says. We know that all complex organisms on Earth, including us, evolved from earlier organisms over billions of years. Evidence of this are very numerous.

There is no doubt that different life forms we see around us an expression of the genetic code that is logged in a molecule of DNA, DNA that is experiencing random mutations and that some mutations increase the chances of the organism to survive and multiply in a given environment. This process of mutation and natural selection allowed the isolated populations of animals that interbreeding and over a long period create a new type.

There is no question that human beings evolved from non-human ancestor in this way. As he began the process of evolution, there is a secret, but it is not at least suggests that lurks at the bottom of all divinity. Any fair reading of the biblical journey of creation suggests that God created all animals and plants are what we see today. There is no doubt that the Bible in this regard was wrong. Many Christians, who want to cast doubt on the truth about evolution, argue for something like intelligent design (ID).

Problem ID is that it is nothing more than a program of political and religious advocacy masked as science. Since belief in the biblical God is not in support of our growing scientific understanding of the world, the ID theorists have put his claim to the area of scientific ignorance. Even if we accept that the universe had to be planned, it does suggest that the draftsman of his plan biblical God or that He approves Christianity.
