Can you briefly educate me on the theory of Evolution and let's see how best you can explain it maybe I will be convinced.
Don't ask me to do a Google search on the topic okay, I just want to read your own interpretation and let's see if it makes sense.

A001:
Evolution, which means the process by which organisms undergo changes genetically over successive generations, is a fact. There are various theories explaining the mechanisms through which the natural phenomenon of evolution occurs.

Simple issue.

N3TRAL:
I'm agnostic too. As a Christian I believed in evolution.

It's not even complicated science. I'm a lawyer and it means that I had little exposure to STEM courses.

Even if one believes in creation, one cannot disregard the evidence of the "original" created living things changing their form over time because of a plethora of factors. Human beings are growing taller. Domestic animals are growing bigger. You do not see the changes in the evolution of bigger animals like Lion and Cattle in even a 10,000 years. After million of years of mutation, you can look back and see how much they've evolved.

The big animals are made up of cells which are largely microscopic. These microscopic organisms mutate and evolve everyday. For instance, treating malaria in Nigeria is becoming difficult because malaria parasites are evolving to resist anti-malarial drugs. Using same antibiotics over time may prove ineffective because the bacteria they were designed to fight have evolved to resist the antibiotic.

They're are environmental and biological changes that bigger animals fight everyday which means that we evolve everyday. If a specie isn't evolving at a faster pace to resist these changes, they risk the possibility of extinction. For bigger animals like us, the change becomes obvious after hundreds of thousands or millions of years.

wegevv:
You have brilliantly explained the facts of evolution. But does that mean the “theory of evolution”, which is the general idea that “all species are related and gradually changed over time”, is also a fact?

I bet virtually all Christians accept the fact that living things change. We can literally observe it will our own eyes if we wanted to (viruses etc). What people reject is the “theory of evolution”. You can chose to explain the facts in a different way. Even some atheist scientists argue against the theory of evolution today.

PS: The main argument Christians have with Atheists is about the “theory of evolution”. Some Christians try to dismiss this as just a theory in layman’s terms (almost guesswork). This is wrong because a scientific theory is different and there is very strong evidence & scientific consensus about the “theory of evolution”. But it still doesn’t make it a fact

Workch:
we have numerous theories of evolution, the most accepted one with more evidence is the modern synthetic theory of evolution.

These theories all attempts to explain the fact called evolution. Why is it difficult for you to grasp?

Workch:
Evolution has nothing to do with atheism. I'm agnostic, I already accepted evolution as fact when I was a Christian.

Religious people in Europe, Australia, Asia and majority in the Americas already moved on on this topic. Only minority biblical literalists in America and majority of religious people in Africa have problems reconciling this concept with their faiths. The reason for the majority in Africa is the result of deplorable educational system that lacks quality science development.

NigerianAngelo:
1. The whites you are trying to copy are more religious than you. All printed Bibles, religious institutions and denominations are in America.

2. Europe was founded on the Catholic faith.

3. The Irish are still hyper Catholics. Their GDP per capita is above $110,000.

4. Most US Billionaires are close to God or elect. They face to face saw how He authored their path to the status. Trump, Musk, Mart family, etc.
They daily shout God bless America.

5. A rich man buried Our Lord

6. Christianity is growing in China as the country is booming. Currently at 5% of population.

7. Only Christian nations are prosperous globally.

You are the one satan is fooling.

wegevv:
Nice deflection ❤️

Workch:
you keep asking same question and getting Same answer rom different people and yet you cannot stop asking that question.
Theories and facts in science are different. Theories are explanations of facts in nature with testable evidence

wegevv:
You didn’t answer the question or address the points made. Always deflections.

My point is that not many Christian’s, even in Nigeria, are arguing against the facts of evolution that n3tral explained. What they argue against is the “theory of evolution” which is the idea that “all species are related and gradually changed over time”.

But you keep trying to conflate the two things for your anti-christian mental masturbation

Workch:
Christians in Nigeria argue that living things don't change overtime. They argue that organisms have always been the way they were created.
Majority of them are like that

Workch:
Pardon my manners, so how come you still think that a scientific theory is a layman's definition of a theory?

It's understandable if you didn’t get educated in a science-inclined field, however there's a reason our education requires everyone to take biology. The reason is to avoid things like this

booblacain:
How can you accept and move on with something that is still only a theory and has not been proven?

NigerianAngelo:
7. Only Christian nations are prosperous globally.

plaetton:
The theory of evolution has been upheld by everything we know today in genetics and biotechnology , as well as modern techniques in agricultural production.

The germ theory is the same with the theory of evolution, yet, I'm sure you have no problems accepting the fact that germs cause disease. The gravitational theory is still in the same category.

Rostikol:
I had no idea that China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, UAE, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait were christian nations.

Olodo.

Workch:
the thread is not meant to educate you. I'm not the reason why you didn't pay attention in secondary school biology.
If you can't get a biology textbook and read, sto asking me a silly questions about basic science that a 3 years old will educate you about in China

titilo:
Sooo ur descendant were monkeys

clearcrystal:
You are an imbe.cile.
You must be very s.tupid
Idiots like you can't go far in l.ife
It's obvious your Lina.ge evolve from Gorilla

Highlife217:
People still don’t believe in evolution in 2023? Lol

NigerianAngelo:
1. Christianity is on the rise in China. Grew from 1% to 5%. In certain Chinese cities (mostly Protestant denominations) they have up to 500 Baptisms per week.

2. It has grown from 0.7% to 2% in Japan in the last few years.

3. 30% of South Korea is Christian (10% Catholic, 19% Protestant) -- so, it's a CHRISTIAN nation.

4. All the countries you mentioned learnt from Christians. They were dependent on Christians for innovation. God never spoke to them directly. (China, Japan, South Korea, UAE etc)

Rostikol:
SHUT UP.

Nothing has been ''upheld'' by anything. Evolution is an unproven THEORY, and there is ZERO EVIDENCE of it till date.

But you're welcome to believe you 'evolved' from a blasted monkey or whatever GARBAGE the white barbarians whom our ancestors civilized, (or rather, tried to civilize) have drummed into your thick, trusty skull.

Judybash93:
Man! You could learn a thing or two from the theory of evolution. It's literally the bedrock of biology. How do you think scientists develop effective antibiotics? Learn

Myth of human evolution will forever remain a theory.

Rostikol:
You are truly brainwashed.

So as you are now, you actually believe that God only spoke to white people?

He didn’t speak to black people or Asians or Arabs.

Just white people.

Honestly, whoever did this to you peoples’ heads will get his comeuppance.

You are pathetic beyond words.

Judybash93:
"Zero evidence"
Really?
U probably have a different definition of the word 'evidence'

Rostikol:
You have ZERO EVIDENCE of evolution.

Even on this thread you've produced not a shred of evidence for evolution.
