A moment away from politics

Darwinism, once banned from public schools in this country, is now accepted as fact. Secular academia is arrogant and pompous and in their effort to be all knowing and a pillar of knowledge they have hitched their wagon to Darwin’s theory and are letting it run. In the early days it was considered blasphemy, then it was debated and then somewhere along the way it has been introduced as the new creation-ism (no evidence, but must be believed), and it requires a whole bunch of faith to believe in evolution.
I do not believe that it is blasphemy to study and ask questions about how the earth functions and how it came to be as it is, I’m not even going to go so far as to say that my opinion is correct (obviously I think that it is), but certainly all you scientists and amateur scholars of atheism could come up with something better in the past 150 years, couldn’t you?
First we must, as in all things, question the source. Where does the information disseminate from and what to the vocal supporters have to gain from spreading their theories as fact. In some cases it is money, if you are looking for grant money and donations to find “the missing link” it sure helps if the whole world believes that there is something to find. If Darwinism is a fact then there must be, it becomes a simple problem of finding it. In other cases there is an alterior motive. Godlessness. If you want the world to reject God, to move forward past “silly superstition” them you have to replace creation and God Himself with something. Evolution and science slide in to some pretty big shoes and if they are presented at the right angle, they appear to fill them, but they don’t.
Before you get all excited and have to breathe into a paper bag let me explain something, natural selection (the basis of Darwin’s theory) exists and it does cause slow and dramatic changes within species. This makes sense and is used as the jumping off point for the rest of the nonsense. If there is a population of giraffes with varying neck lengths and they suffer from environmental hardships in the form of a food shortage, in the ensuing years this giraffe population eats everything with in reach of their little mouths, it stands to reason that eventually only the longest necked giraffes will get to eat and therefore be strong enough to procreate and if these conditions continue long enough the short necked giraffes will be bred into non existence. Not extinction, and this is an important distinction, they were all giraffes and their physical appearance has changed, but they are still giraffes. Natural selection like this can be caused by a variety of circumstances, slow cheetah eventually cannot catch enough food to survive and do not reproduce, dark colored polar bear can not stalk their prey, tuskless elephants cannot defend themselves sufficiently (this one actually is playing itself out in reverse as you read this. Poachers have decimated the tusked African elephant population and the offspring of the remaining elephants are being born without tusks) and on and on and on. For every imaginable external stress an organism can be put under there seems to be a universal ability to rise up and meet the challenge, to adapt and continue. This is the universally undisputed portion of Darwin’s work ... and from there the proponents of evolution ask you to make one heck of a leap. The odd thing is that it may not sound crazy to you, there was a time when it made perfect sense to me, it was what I had been taught and I never really thought about it. The leap is from adaptation to evolution. From species slowly changing better meet the challenges that a population faces thru selective breeding to species actually becoming different species. You have evolved from monkeys, your salamander evolved from dinosaurs, or is it prehistoric fish? I’m not really sure which ... and neither are they. They talk about “the missing link” and what that is is the blended human, an organism that is more human that neanderthal man but less human that you are. Finding this organism would prove their theory correct, not that they need to prove it at this point, it is being taught in every educational institution on planet earth as gospel. What they fail to mention, the dirty omitted little secret is that they haven’t found the missing link for any current organism. When you begin to really think about all the verifiable facts that are presented there are huge gaping holes in all of it. The dinosaurs suffered a massive extinction and they also evolved ... huh? Did they die off or did they evolve into something else? I know that a really smart Darwinist will say both, some dinosaurs died off and some evolved into ... something else. It wasn’t just dinosaurs that died off, it was everything, plants, fish, birds ... and they all evolved? Really? At its core, the idea that life began in the ocean and thru millions of years of environmental stress developed the ability to breathe air and grew legs is asinine! To suggest that it was some sort of crazy accident of probability is just reaching for anything to fit the theory, a desperate attempt to tie up the loose ends, to drown out opposing view points. It is very difficult to perform a population study of a million generations to see what anomalies might present themselves. But I will say this, if legs and breathing air are just a silly accident, in order for things to be as they are today you would need billions of silly accidents. Live birth of mammals is a sticky one, a female of a species would simultaneously have to accidently carry its offspring to full term and also accidently develop the ability to produce milk. That’s a tough one, it would have to be a single organism ... not gradual. Any species with unusual fertilization processes would require a male and a female to have the same billion to one accident simultaneously, for example the red velvet mite, which is as big as one of the letters in this sentence, has a peculiar mating habit. The male releases its sperms on small twigs or stalks in what scientists call the "love garden", then lays down an intricate silken trail to the spot. When a female stumbles upon this trail, she will follow it to seek out the "artist". If she likes his work, then she will sit on the sperm. However, if another male spots the garden, he will trash it and lay his own instead! Did they have a meeting and decide that from now on this would be the new way? The un-leap-able hurdle of evolutionary theory is that one species cannot become another species, sure there are changes over time, but a giraffe is still a giraffe ... and will never become a hippopotamus. Even if we wait a billion years.
So, if a fish cannot become a land walking, air breathing mammal/bird/reptile/insect then of course an amoeba cannot become a fish. And that kills Darwin. The book he wrote, his life’s work was entitled “Origin of the Species” and that is what he was theorizing, he used his extensive study of slight changes in populations over time and the idea of natural selection and he made the leap that human beings used to be monkeys and then of course that monkeys used to be something before that and that thing used to be something else and you can continue to traced it all back to the oldest fossils ever found which are single celled organisms. And that was the beginning.
That a single celled organism could evolved in to the immeasurably diverse ecosystem doesn’t seem strange to you? That organism evolved chlorophyll and became a plant and also evolved a brain and muscles and bones and became you and also evolved an exoskeleton and became a butterfly?
Which gets us to the biggest hole of all, don’t ask a Darwinist for the answer to this one, because you will either get a response so stupid that you will get a headache or they will tell you that their theory that explains everything that has ever happened with every creature on the entire planet for all of history, hasn’t found the answer yet. Where did the single celled organism come from? It’s the old chicken and the egg dilemma ... the two most common explanations of Darwinists are these, lightning struck “ooze” and thus formed the ooze into a simple lifeform, or that life was introduced to the planet by extraterrestrial means. Lightning? Struck the ooze? And formed a cell wall, a nucleus and digestive capabilities? Really? I’ve never seen lightning build anything before, or even organize it ... that’s a good one.
I’m not even going to get into Mr Dawkins extraterrestrial nonsense. But I will say this, if the origin of life on earth is life on another planet you have not dodged a bullet, you still have to explain the life on the other planet. Maybe there is more constructive lighting on that planet.
I propose this to you, I know it is old fashioned, and considered the height of ancient ignorance, but I propose it anyway. God created the universe, the earth, everything on it and He did so intentionally. The bombardier beetle is not an accident ... “The spray is produced within a pair of chambers in the beetle’s abdomen. One of these chambers contains hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone. The other chamber contains two enzymes called catalase and peroxidase. If another insect threatens the bombardier beetle, the beetle will respond by mixing the two chemicals. The enzymes cause the hydrogen peroxide to decompose into water and oxygen. This chemical reaction releases heat, which raises the fluid and gas inside the chamber to 100 degrees Celsius - in other words, boiling. The boiling temperature causes the oxygen gas to expand. The expanding gas forces the fluid out at the offending predator.” Really? An insect developed the ability to create chemicals inside of its body and also developed the physiology to store them, mix them and then excrete them thru a series of happy little accidents?
I see the Creator’s hand everywhere I look at the natural world, the balance of ecosystems in a world ruled by entropy, the perfect beauty of countless creatures, the immeasurable usefulness of the most unexpected actors. Maybe you don’t see it how I do, maybe the Creator is not obvious to you, and that’s fine with me, I don’t even consider it blasphemy ... but for God’s sake come up with something better that Darwinism, come up with a theory that explains something, anything, God knows that Darwin didn’t.
