RE: The evolution of Adam - a conundrum

in #religion7 years ago

Conclusions change continuously, but they change towards refinement and not in any random direction. The earth going around the sun in an circle is still wrong, but more right than the sun going around the earth. (It goes around in an ellipse.) First, we recognized light and magnetism as separate forces, but then we refined that view as a unified electro-magnetic force. Science is a method of refining knowledge. Sure, it changes, but in bettering increments.

Evolution is a fact, and I urge you to look up and better understand it.

Sort:  

I learnt about "Theory Of Evolution", but there is nothing like "Fact Of Evolution"....

The word 'theory' when used in the scientific sense means:

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. Wiki

So, you'd have to apply your same doubt to the following:

  • Germ Theory
  • The Theory of Gravity
  • The Theory of Relativity

All evidence - fossil records, genetics, geologic, biology, biomechanics, geographic isolation - confirms evolution. I'd encourage you to check it out. Life, and how it changes over time, is amazing.

Amen, I used to hold a skeptical view of evolutionary theory until I went out into the field and confirmed it by my own observation... then after studying more much of it became fact to me.

Also all of the relevant sciences continue to confirm each others findings.

There is a thing called the law of witnesses; and evolution continues to comply, with the case growing stronger every decade.

There is a caution though and that is not to adopt evolution as a religion as some have done, because that just reverses the problem.

Exactly... conclusions change, but in a refining basis

Do agree with this.
