When a christian reads the word Evolution. Does it burn into their eyes?

Answer 1

Maybe it makes some cringe. It definitely burns the eyes of the fundies.

Answer 2

Because they believe GOD creates the first life on earth,and deny of the world happen by accident as the evolutionists believe.

Answer 3

My eyes! My eyes! ...just kidding! No, if we've researched the 'evidence' or so called support.. well, the theory really is quite ridiculous. Lol.. And science (minus preconceived assumptions, atop other assumptions) supports intelligent design much more than evolution. Fact. All matter is falling apart, not moving toward improvement so life could not proceed from matter - 2nd most held law of science.

Life.. the leaf on the tree will utilize energy to bring about (sustenance) improvement. But pluck the leaf from the tree and what happens to it?

Natural "Selection" is the separating of traits present, not the developing of new traits. The trees that will survive and adapt to drought are the ones who can grow deeper roots. That capability has to be in its genetic code and make up. Not there? It will not survive.. this is natural "selection". Most folks do not realize that evolution as to origins is worlds away from natural selection, and they think evolution as to origins is natural selection. Not so. We may have lots of dog breeds - "the seed of a species is in itself" - we have no cat-dogs.

Answer 4

It depends on what kind of "evolution" you are referring to (the word simply means "change over time"):
-Cosmic evolution (the Big Bang)—including things like galactic, stellar, and planetary evolution.
-Chemical evolution (or Abiogenesis)—life from non-life.
-Biological evolution (Darwinism)—universal common descent through mutation and natural selection.
-Or minor changes within individual species that occur over short periods of time (sometimes called micro-evolution)—which isn't controversial at all.

Even young-earth creationists believe in natural selection and "speciation." Take a look at these:

Answer 5

WHERE have you been? The majority of us Christians have accepted evolution as a part of God's design for over fifty years. Join us in the 21st century.

Answer 6

Humans are so gullible they believe everything they hear or read. Never did Darwin ever prove that this earth and all life came about by evolutionary means. It has always been called "Darwin's theory." The fossil record alone tells us the truth, but how many people have actually looked into it? The only place we would be looking to read about evolution is from books written by human scientists, never in the Scriptures which were "inspired of God." (2Timothy 3:16) Just a little research on any subject can prove what would be the truth. I invite you to look into the Bible so as to learn the truthful answers to your questions. There is an international website, jw.org from which you can do this and all information is absolutely at no cost and no personal information nor password requested. Questions answered by means of videos are interesting to watch such as: Does God have a Name? What is God's Kingdom? Why did God Create the Earth? Why did Jesus Die? and Why Study the Bible? Bible discourses can be watched from the Broadcasting part of the website. While there, why not look into Bible Teachings > Bible Questions Answered. If you believe what you learned, you can request your free personal Bible study online, even at a place and time convenient for you. Thank you very much for this question.

Answer 7

Most Christians have no problems with science and evolution as part of science because the evidence for it is overwhelming. It isn't the Christians who reject science, it is the Old Testament Fundamentalists, the Biblical literalists who do. Fortunately these are a tiny minority in most countries but poor education produces a plethora of them in the USA.

Answer 8

All the Christians I know, and have ever met, know that evolution is true.
It seems to be only a number of very uneducated and brainwashed Americans who question it or simply refuse to accept it.

Answer 9

You're assuming two things:

1. They can read the word, and
2. They actually know what the word EVOLUTION means.

That is RARELY (almost NEVER) the case here on R&S, which they prove here time and time again.

Answer 10

Just the literalists and there are far fewer in the world than you'd think.
