Christianity EtcRe: Evolution Is A Scam by CoolUsername: 1:27pm On Sep 02, 2025
Dtruthspeaker:
Ok.

But I contend that for a thing to evolve, it must be that same thing and not another thing. Exactly as we don't say a baby is an evolvement of the parents.

So I dispute that there is nothing like evolution because everything they claimed is an evolution , is simply a different thing separate from the original thing in question. Just like today's phones are not the same as our 3310s.
Babies are different from their parents, though. You are not a carbon-copy of your parents and that is due to genetic variation. Even identical twins are different from each other.

Emusan:
That means you don't know if the first life evolved or not?
Evolution is the variation of genetic traits over successive generations. This means that if a certain trait is more likely to allow an organism survive until the point of reproduction, then we should see that trait become more commonplace over generations in that species.

This is only possible in living organisms. That is why origin of life research is beyond the scope of evolution because it is no longer dealing with living organisms.

Emusan:
This doesn't make any meaningful meaning since the NATURE OF THE FIRST LIFE wasn't known.

Abiogenesis can never happen with all the conditions on earth without careful or discreet control.
Abiogenesis is the formation for life from non-life. If you believe in the biblical creation story, then you, by definition, believe in abiogenesis.

That said, while abiogenesis hasn't been replicated, progress has been made in the field and complex biomecules have been synthesised.

Scientific research is a gradual process so its far too early to say that it can NEVER happen.

Emusan:
You misunderstood the Catholic on this, the Catholic claim, is that even though living things have ability to evolve it's still within the set rules God the Creator put in them yet this doesn't mean there's evolution of ape-like into human.

The Catholic believe God created human as we are today.
Pope John Paul and Pope Benedict affirmed that evolution doesn't contradict Catholic faith. Pope John Paul only claimed that the human soul was created. Likewise, Pope Francis also affirmed that evolution is true but it was God created the internal laws. They never denied that man and ape share a common ancestor.

As your body sweats to cool you up or as weed grow in spite of generator smoke, so also is it the work of God that living things adapt to changes in environment.

But we all know that the op is simply opposing the postulation of evolution as the source of life whereas things must first be created before they can evolve.

And their evolution even depends on if their Creator created them to evolve.

And funny I don't think you can call a new thing eg Badagry smugglers have modified Volvos and Camrys, that is clearly an evolution.

But it would not be exactly right to say this example is evolution

They are all different Benzes
Evolution makes no claims about the origin of life. It simply speaks on how that life diversifies. Abiogenesis and origin of life research are distinct fields of study from evolution.

Matter of fact, the Catholic Church's official stance on it is that it is true and doesnt conflict with with the Christian faith.

Absolutely pathetic behaviour from Inter Miami with Busquets punching a Sounders player and Suarez putting a Sounders player in a headlock before spotting on the Sounders manager.

you know, wrestling prides itself on being weird and crazy, and interprets it as unique - I call hogwash on that. Raja's incident is an example of introducing a normal thinking human being to pro-wrestling, it doesn't work.

I don't know if you've noticed this but Nigeria kinda sucks. When your country is this bad then of course they lag behind in most positive metrics

For example, we are bottom 3 in the world when it comes to life expectancy. The country is not even conducive to long life.

Ospeay Na gimmick maybe that's why he lacks match psychology. I kick outta everything and win like a video game.
Isreal Adesanya boasts about being the style bender, a nickname.
UFC and Wrestling no be the same. UFC fighters aren't playing characters on TV. There's no element of make belief in UFC.

Until I hear Maxwell doing the things he professes on TV. Na character, him dey play. He's a gimmick.
It's why certain folks who claim to be gangsta rappers get found out. You can't claim to rap about a lifestyle you haven't lived.
Funny enough, UFC fighters who decided to play up their characters for the cameras were starting to draw bigger gates than they used to.

this has nothing to do with New Japan and I don't care about Mexico's history. This is not wrestling. Simple. Imagine if this is what we grew up watching over Cena, Orton and Austin. Imagine the next Wrestlemania littered with circus characters from top to bottom. Haba.
Ironically though, pro wrestling originated from the circus. That's why they are called "carnies", because they used to travel around and perform along with other carnival acts.

Orton is guy who claims to be a snake and hears voices. The man literally slithers around like a reptile and holds his head. Cena played a white middle class rapper that was acting like a thug. Undertaker was a zombie or something. They are still circus characters. Luchadores are just a different flavour.

Brock has no gimmick, he dominated UFC. He's not playing a character.

Logan Paul is a douchebag real life.
Ironically enough, at the time, that was Brock's gimmick. His gimmick was that he was a legit ass-kicker in a world of sports entertainers. His character, however, evolved from someone who just destroyed everybody to the grizzled veteran who put Cody Rhodes through hell to prepare him for the Roman Reigns rematch.

Logan Paul's real-life douchebaggery has to do with him doing anything for money and clout. He just leans into it to elevate his wrestling gimmick. His wrestling gimmick is that he is an outsider who thinks he's better than veterans and will brag about it constantly.
