Are you evolving? Have you observed changes in yourself that shows signs of evolution? In the past 2000 years, have there been any changes, though minute, in the DNA or whatnot of humans?
All plants and animal species are constantly evolving, incliding humans, but individual plants and animals do not evolve. For proof of human evolution, have you noticed that Chinese people look different from Caucasians who also look different from Blacks and Red Indians and so on? Evolution explains that. Different groups of people were isolated from each other and evolved in different directions. Now that the world has become more connected, racism and language differences have helped to preserve the differences by discouraging inter-racial mating. How does the Adam and Eve story explain the differences. If Adam and Eve were Jewish, where did the Caucasians and Chinese and Blacks and American Indians and other distinct races come from? How could all that diversity have come from just 2 jews if there has been no evolution since then?

If men evolved from underwater life forms, as one of the more extreme evolution theories goes, why is it that only man decided to evolve? Why have all other creatures decided to remain catatonic in that regard?
Life started in water. Some plants and animals came to land and evolved into the diverse species we see today including us. Some stayed in water and continued to diversify and adapt there too.

If there are billions of planets and then earth happens to have the right constituents for life as seen on earth, why does it seem that there are no other planets capable of hosting life, even with the extent of space exploration we've got so far?
Space exploration is at its infancy. We don't know whether there's life on other planets, because they are too far away.

Hitler was an atheist . He thought himself to be god and was malevolent towards Christians . He established the Relch Church that saw him to be a god
This is foolishness. You have not been able to prove he was an Atheist. This screenshot doesn't prove he was an Atheist. He may have not been a Christian, but this doesn't mean he was an Atheist. Stop deceiving yourself, Hitler believed in a God, he believed something like a God existed, which nullifies your atheist claim..

How could all that diversity have come from just 2 jews if there has been no evolution since then?

The Bible does not explicitly give us the origin of the different “races” or skin colors in humanity. In actuality, there is only one race—the human race. Within the human race is diversity in skin color and other physical characteristics. Some speculate that when God confused the languages at the tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1-9), He also created racial diversity. It is possible that God made genetic changes to humanity to better enable people to survive in different ecologies, such as the darker skin of Africans being better equipped genetically to survive the excessive heat in Africa. According to this view, God confused the languages, causing humanity to segregate linguistically, and then created genetic racial differences based on where each racial group would eventually settle. While possible, there is no explicit biblical basis for this view. The races/skin colors of humanity are nowhere mentioned in connection with the tower of Babel.

At the Tower of Babel, when the different languages came into existence, groups that spoke one language moved away with others of the same language. In doing so, the gene pool for a specific group shrank dramatically as the group no longer had the entire human population to mix with. Closer inbreeding took place, and in time certain features were emphasized in these different groups (all of which were present as a possibility in the genetic code). As further inbreeding occurred through the generations, the gene pool grew smaller and smaller, to the point that people of one language family all had the same or similar features.

Another explanation is that Adam and Eve possessed the genes to produce black, brown, and white offspring (and everything else in between). This would be similar to how a mixed-race couple sometimes has children that vary in color. Since God obviously desired humanity to be diverse in appearance, it makes sense that God would have given Adam and Eve the ability to produce children of different skin tones. Later, the only survivors of the flood were Noah and his wife, Noah’s three sons and their wives—eight people in all (Genesis 7:13). Perhaps Noah’s daughters-in-law were of different races. It is also possible that Noah’s wife was of a different race than Noah. Maybe all eight of them were of mixed race, which would mean they possessed the genetics to produce children of different races. Whatever the explanation, the most important aspect of this question is that we are all the same race, all created by the same God, all created for the same purpose—to glorify Him.

Life started in the water. Some plants and animals came to the land and evolved into the diverse species we see today including us. Some stayed in water and continued to diversify and adapt there too. You don't seem to understand evolution well enough.

This is more hypothetical than real . Can you provide proof for this claim ? How did life start in water ? Has this process been replicated in the labs ? Let me answer NO . There is no proof for abiogenesis or macro-evolution .


Space exploration is at its infancy. We don't know whether there's life on other planets. I think we are yet to get to some of the 8 planets in our solar system, not to mention other solar systems. There is no shame in not knowing everything.

There was a recent research that have shown that life in other planets is non existent - within our observable universe . The belief that there is life in other unobserved parts of the universe is just an exhibition of faith .

If Hitler was a atheist because he believed himself god then, it will be right to say god is a atheist (based on your logic )

thnx for raising the issue of diffrence in skin colour,I have raised the issue today but everybody lack proof.I keep asking if adam nd eve are jews nd we are all descendant of adam nd eve,how come most part of the world don't share same skin colour with jews,why are there caucasians,negros,asians,red indians, nd whites.it clearly shows that man keep evolving nd also animals.I was watching a program on natgeowild where an ancient lion(nemean lion) was showed quite diffrent from the lion we all know,it has a sharper claw,golden fur nd it has long canine that shows outside of its mouth,quite brutal than the normal lion we all know,but it was this same nemean lion that evolve to the lion we all know today

Oga I have a simple question for you.
Do you believe that there is supernatural powers whether from native doctor/babalawo, juju, marine spirit/power, ogboni, even from India or black magic as some people call it?
Whether yes or yes, then know that there is a power that told the sea where to stop too.

If you also believe that someone made your car, house, cup or even the device you used to post this topic and believe that nobody made the moon, sun, stars and man...I will advise you rethink.
This goes to all doubting hearts also

Religion in Israel
The major religions in Israel are Judaism (74.9%) , Islam (17.5%) , Christianity (2.0%) , Druzism (1.6%) and other/unknown (4%) . There are so modicum atheists in Israel .
There are more Muslims in Israel- not Atheists - than Christians .

my answer was in my previous response to you. Read about the Big Bang Theory and you will know how the earth was created. you may even learn new things like how this whole universe and solar system came to be. and also how much life span the Sun has left.

why didn't you address the part I mentioned about Jupiter, Mars etc not being mentioned in the Bible.

truth is, religion is illogical. Now you ignored the part I mentioned about other planets and you are still asking me about what was written in a book with no proof or, at the very least, without a thesis behind it.

stop being ignorant. approach religion with an open-minded and you won't be regarded as an ignoramus.

Thank you

Make use of common sense - all atheists are bereft of logic and reason . The Relch Church was established to see Hitler as a god as Hitler thought there is no God - that's how an atheist thinks .

In North Korea , Juche is a full-fledged religion that worships Kim Il Sung as god, and his son, Kim Jong Il as the son of god . North Korea is officially an atheist state but its apparent atheist leaders are megalomaniacs - they wish to be seen as demi gods as they seem to be replete with fantasies of power, relevance, omnipotence, and by inflated self-esteem. Such was seen with Hitler .

It is pointless to even reply this. This is just one of nairalands many attempts to belittle christianity and God and also encourage people to become atheists. Nairaland is very good at that. Hardly does a day go by without them showing us threads of perverted pastors and christians. I believe they should just come out of their shell and officially make the forum an atheist forum!!! Crap!!!
Only one thread for FP since how many days na im you dey provoke like this? You should understand that so many people harbour doubts about the beliefs that they were indoctrinated into. The society does not allow allow them to express these doubts and as such the internet where they can do so anonymously becomes very handy. The sheer number of views and comments on this thread is a testament. There is no campaign against your faith. It is simply natural selection. Subsequent generations will be less inclined to be believe. Darwin got it right.

I must admit you indeed are the MASTER of the word FAITH. So in this our age you are trying to prove to all of us that humans evolved without even scientific evidence, please back up anything you assert, hence I would just keep calling them all fallacies. Even the so called religions didn't need to have a quarter of the kind of FAITH you are exhibiting before they believed there is a God.
