Evolution

[??????????]

God started evolution. I believe in both.

Atoms are easier to prove then evolution.

Atoms are easier to prove then evolution.

Actually, it is the other way around.

I challenge you, prove atoms exist.

In exchange, I will prove evolution happens.

When you get sick and see the doctor, if there is a bacterial infection the doctor will prescribe antibiotics. A small percentage of the bacteria will not be killed by said antibiotic. These will be the only bacteria that reproduce. Eventually we end up saying that the bacteria developed resistence to the antibiotic. That's evolution.

Their is a difference between Micro Evolution and Macro evolution. What you are referring to is what I believe is called Micro evolution.

I have a question for non-believers and believers alike. Why could God and evolution NOT coexist?

[??????????]

The Theory of Evolution draws a conclusion that our presense here is the result solely of natural processes.  It concludes that there is no need or purpose for introducing anything supernatural to explain why this corner of the universe suddenly came to be populated with intelligent beings with dreams and desires, who create art and music and war and literature and think of things that will never be.  It is the end of all religion.  The ultimate conclusion of the Theory of Evolution is that we are here only as a result of some blind cosmic accident, and there is no higher purpose to our existence.  That conculsion in and of itself constitutes a belief system - that of that of Orthodox Naturalism.

Actually, the idea that we are here solely because of natural purposes is an assumption of the theory of evolution, not the conclusion.

The fundamental problem some people have with science is that there is no place for God in it. Science is based on repeatable experiments yielding predictable results. If God was consistently stepping into our lives science would not exist.

Science and the church have had a very close history prior to the middle ages.

Firmly agnostic, but evolution is unquestionable.  Really, if you knew the evidence behind it, there's not one bit of question as to whether or not it occurs. 
From all evidence as of now, it seems like, if there is a god, he is very very unobtrusive.  I.E., he stays very far behind the scenes, and everything runs on real laws of physics.  It makes sense, really.  If you want someone to choose to believe in you or do good acts, you don't just reveal yourself to them, you allow them to make the choice. 

Yes, God gave us free will to do as we please.
