Given the overwhelming evidence of Evolution through common descent...what would you consider to be the best COUNTER evidence to evolution? [Spirituality & Religion]

@Bushranger 🤔 when was the Spirit given? I see the original creation having 3 elements. 1. The body (dust) 2. The breath of God.(life) these two things made a living soul. (Genesis 2:7). We later find the 3rd element which is blood. Where was the Spirit given to mankind here? We can speculate and suppose it to be true, but its simply not there biblically.

@Reverend It would be necessary for me to believe in the creation story for me to answer your question 😉. I'll also have to acknowledge 4that you have a greater working knowledge of the Bible, however, the spirit you speak of is in my opinion, metaphorical.

@Bushranger fair enough.

@Pikachu That’s true. He does.

@Pikachu @wilderflower
If you're a psychologist, you're in the wrong business.

@GodSpeed63 Do you read and follow every word of the bible?

@GodSpeed63 Don't you have any picture then? I thought you were meant to be saved. 😄🤣😄🤣

@Sharon LoL oh noooooo we’re not gonna see pictures 😆😆

@GodSpeed63 Do you read and follow every word of the bible?

@Carazaa

Not to put too fine a point on it: you have an education in an unrelated field.
Your education has not equipped you to speak authoritatively on evolution any more than a scientist educated in botany can speak authoritatively on astrophysics.

If you believe all scientists around the world are incompetent then study the information relating to evolution and find the flaws.
Don't just state that you trust the bible over science while remaining ignorant to one whole half of the argument. That's doing yourself a disservice.

So i ask you, before you comment on evolution again, familiarize yourself with the theory and the evidence.
Here's an excellent site to begin with:
http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/comdesc/

If i'm reading the bible, you can read that😉

@Pikachu Did I say all scientists are incompetent? No I did not! And you say I can't comment again on your post unless I study your field of interest first? Ok I won't!
Thanks!

@Carazaa

Sorry i caused you offense.
I didn't mean to and i didn't mean to imply that you can't comment on my posts. What i meant was that before you deny the evidence for evolution again, i want you to actually, genuinely study that evidence in good faith. Become informed about that which you are denying before you deny it has validity.


Correct me if i'm wrong, but what you suggested is that given your stance that the bible is right and science is wrong, either all the scientists studying evolution are incompetent in their field of study or they are deliberately falsifying data.

@Pikachu Ah-hah! He has a point. Pokemon cannot evolve by common descent!

@Bookcart

Curses! I'm sure a thunder stone works into the theory somehow. Probably involves epigenetics.

@anythingoes477

Absolutely correct. All too often i see creationists criticizing evolution theory in terms of expecting life to be a smooth progression from bad to good to better to best rather than simply maladaptive to adaptive.

@GodSpeed63 I’ve noticed you’re a passive aggressive coward. Do you read and follow every word of the bible?

@wilderflower Amen, sister, lol.

@Bushranger 😆

@Reverend

Tell ya what, bud. If you've read that then go ahead and start with what you feel is the best argument.
If you haven't read it then you can't reasonably expect me to either.

@Pikachu I did read it but there is so much information there. I will go through it this weekend, get some things together and we will have a chat.

@Reverend

Sounds good👍

@Sharon


Agreed. And so far that doesn't seem to be happening. We see a series of "just so" stories which falter against the consistent, monolithic explanation of shared ancestry.

@eMortal

lol ok...but before you rest, could you explain it a bit more?

@Pikachu obviously their minds didn't evolved to human level.

@eMortal

I know you're criticizing pedophiles and i don't disagree, but can i assume you're being facetious in your expression of this criticism as an example of evidence which contraindicates evolution?

@PDXNative1986

Oh i'm aware. Luckily his blatantly superficial understanding and shallow rhetoric serve only to undermine his position and strengthen mine.
