People understand micro evolution, or the unfoldmeant of a species vs. science projecting a macro style evolution in which there are not only biological leaps in species but from plant to insect to animal to man.

A bird was not chased by animals on land for such a long time that it evolved wings to flee predators, a bird has and always will be a bird.

Everything was already created/here on earth the moment humans came to being.

Put away the sherm sticks.

Bill nye is an idiot. To put faith in a theory is laughable. Evolution is a half truth. Creationists only have issue with the origin of man, monkeys turning into human beings and species turning into completely different species. Bill nye is a prick. A line has to be drawn in the sand to protect us from the stupidity of atheists.

Creationism is a theory.

It is better, because we're not accountable to a higher power, we're accountable to society and each other. Children need to be taught compassion, not that an all-seeing judge in the sky is examining every second of his life and gets to decide their ultimate fate.

If Billy is considering stealing Mikey's bike, which of these alternatives is better, more 'moral'?
"I'm not going to steal it because god will punish me"

or

"I'm not going to steal it because it will cause Mikey suffering, and he doesn't deserve that"

I agree with you that empathy would do all of mankind a lot of good.

But let's be realistic. Mikey is not weighing good vs evil, he's weighing punishment vs reward.

If he can steal Mikey's bike, get satisfaction out of it, and not get caught or punished, then he will do it. That's how humans are.

It'd be nice if humans were different, but they're not. And quite frankly, without a god, there's no reason they should be. The well-being of everybody is fine and dandy, but it doesn't really compel people to look beyond their personal suffering and fragility especially since the well-being of everyone is a fantasy and their personal problems are real.

An objective universal law or a spiritual mindset can get people to look beyond that, but when it comes down to it, if there is no god, there is no reason for a person not to hoard all the selfish pleasure they can get out of this life even at the expense of others.

I wouldnt even really consider it debatable...It happened
Now if u want to say that God had a hand in it....and guided that process to let us become the complex h omo-sapiens that we are today? Then thats more of a debate

Everything is a reflection of the human experience. Creation was made for the coming of humans, that we could take what was already made, and create again.

There is one life that pervades the universe, just differing in form and function, with humanity being it's finest and final culmination.

Evolution, albeit a "theory", has been demonstrated and replicated in lab settings with animals that have short life-spans (fruit flies) and various strains of plants.

It exits. We've DEMONSTRATED that it exists. If you want to believe that a creator is responsible for it, that's fine. But if you deny its existence entirely, you are an idiot.
