@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidSo a question for you. Isn't the idea or theory of evolution based on that any or all species will over time adapt and probably somehow make its self better on pretty much all levels so it will survive not only it's current surroundings but somehow start to make needed changes so it will have the chance to survive the next challenges?
Further evolution.
If that is so, why is man as we are now, not doing all we can do to make sure we all survive whatever changes are upon us?
But instead humans have created enough weapons to kill everything on this planet 10 or more times over.
If you believe in evolution, why is it not improving us now so we are all living in peace and taking care of each other?
@galveston75 saidNo, I don't think evolution within a given species will necessarily lead to perfection. Some will go down dead ends, and indeed some have done so.

I believe I read somewhere that 99% of species that have ever existed are now extinct.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke
I'm not really speaking of mental perfection. That would only apply to Jehovah. He did create us to think on our own and not as a robot of sorts.
So the problem Adam created for ourselves is we are all now imperfect. He chose to disobey his Father, his creator who clearly warned him of the consequences that he would not only bring upon himself but on all of his offspring because Adam was no longer perfect. We are his offspring so we all sin.
This is why as long as we humans are in this imperfect condition and most no longer follow God's laws in loving our neighbors, things will never get better for us unless Jehovah helps.
@galveston75 saidWe evolved as a species. There was no Adam. (No original sin).

@Ghost-of-a-Duke Prove that we evolved....
How would you or any evolutionist explain this bug?
"There are a number of related beetles that have derived a system of mixing two chemicals together. Bombardier beetles are the ones that have taken it to the greatest extreme."
Scientist suggest: "Scientists have suggested that this incredible marksmanship may have evolved to give the beetles a fighting chance against foes like ants that can attack from any direction."
Quite a bug huh? So this bug that just happens to have 2 chemicals in it's abdomen that when mixed isn't so good for it's victim. And this just happened all by itself?
Now as you try to explain this as well as any others try, notice in just about any explanations by any evolutionist, even the top guys, they always use the words: "suggest, maybe, could have, could be, we don't know, under the right conditions, in the right environment, given enough time, the need to survive, etc, etc, etc.
Do you see a pattern here?
No my friend there is absolutely no proof on this planet of evolution.
@galveston75 saidI think you simply don't understand 'theory' in a scientific context. It is not like having a theory that elephants dream about mice.

'A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world.'
@Suzianne saidWe had a white house that held the doors open so the cartels could sell people for sex and slaves, sold deadly drugs, and had gangs flood the country, and those who supported that white house were part of the problem; those who kept their mouths shut while that was going on were part of the problem from the complicit news agencies, so when children were raped and killed, they still held the door open, they still defended those monsters in charge, what did you do, defend them, supported those that were and are trying to hold the door open for those cartels, are you Cartelocrat?
How can we? It's on TV every single day!
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidReally? So a fact is the same as a theory in your mind?

"THEORY meaning: 1 : an idea or set of ideas that is intended to explain facts or events; 2 : an idea that is suggested or presented as possibly true but that is not known or proven to be true."
I see nothing here that says evolution is a fact and it is proven. Do you?
Every site I look up all say the same. Could it be that possibly ones like yourself who do not want to answer to God because of pride, not wanting to learn and humble themselves to a God or just are intent on doing your own thing because you have no clue who he is?

This 'theory' can not be applied to the existence of Adam, as we know we evolved as a species and did not begin life fully formed in a garden. - To be blunt, I am embarrassed for you to believe such a thing.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidYou assume a lot.

@Ghost-of-a-Duke
So to you a "theory" and a "fact" are the same? If they are why don't the leading evolutionist of the world just use the word "fact"?
@galveston75 saidRead it carefully. 'Based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment.'

Again, take some time to understand the difference between a scientific theory and a general theory that Elvis is alive and well and living in Bradford.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke
The teaching of macroevolution rests on three main assumptions:
1. Mutations provide the raw materials needed to create new species.
2. Natural selection leads to the production of new species.
3. The fossil record documents macroevolutionary changes in plants and animals.
Is the evidence for macroevolution so strong that it should be considered a fact?
Would you agree with these statements?
@KellyJay saidNo we did not.

The rest of your argument is therefore moot.
Almost nothing you said in this post is true.
But your Führer said it, so you must accept it as gospel.
Therein lies the failure of your premise.
