I Like Heated Discussions Or Debates

It's pretty easy for me to get into arguments on EP because I have extreme traditional values and other people who don't possess those values love to challenge my opinions instead of just leaving me alone.
On my old EP account I got in a huge debate with a guy over evolution because I don't believe in it and in the end he wouldn't answer any of my questions and he started personally insulting me. Then he blocked me. It felt really good because obviously that meant I won.

Is there a reason you don't believe in evolution?

Yes. First of all I believe in God as the Creator of everything and my reasons for believing that are stated in an experience on my profile. Then because I believe God created everything it doesn't make sense for it all to have evolved when He was able to make it perfect in the first place. Evolution also doesn't make any sense to me scientifically. Genetic mutations are negative. But evolutions declares that somehow the mutations are beneficial. It doesn't make sense to me.

Where did god come from if god created everything

God always existed. Read what I have to say about that on my profile if you want to.

Also Evolution makes lots of sense because according to religion we were all made too look like god but people with mutations don't and the mutations provide evidence for evolution

Being made in the image and likeness of God is usually used more in a spiritual sense. God is a spirit and we are made up of body and soul. Because we are material we can have flaws. Our souls which are spiritual are like God. So people with mutations still can be like God

Yes, that's a perfect example of natural selection happening within a species and I agree that natural selection happens in nature. My problem is with evolution as a whole, i.e. the theory that everything evolved from a single celled organism. I don't see how it is genetically possible for one kind of animal to change into an entirely different animal of an entirely different species.
