And
for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a
lie: (2 Thess 2:11 KJV)
Concerning
evolution, I believe everything that has been proven.
Certainly,
there has been micro-evolution of living beings within species. Horses
have developed from more primitive horses. Breeding of many animals is a
means of achieving differences within species of those animals.
But
the big thesis of Darwinism is that life itself evolved from inanimate matter
by a gradual process. This has not been proven nor have the most intensive
efforts of modern science been able to achieve the creation of life, period.
Evolutionists would have us believe that life happened accidentally yet its
origination cannot be demonstrated in any laboratory.
Another
thesis of Darwinism is that lower forms of life evolved into different higher
forms. If this was true there would be abundant fossil evidence of transitional
forms between lower species and higher species. Despite numerous claims of the
"discovery" of such fossils, closer examination has eventually
revealed none of them to be transitional forms. The most salient example of
this is the complete absence of life forms leading to the “Cambrian explosion.”
Evolutionists realize that this absence is fatal to Darwin’s theory just as
Darwin himself realized it and have sought many excuses and explanations for
this lapse in their theory but all have been shown to be false.
Another
tenet of evolution is that there is no design involved in the most intricate
and marvelous beings. Evolution insists that it all happened mechanically and
any appearance of design is an illusion. But many imminent experts have come to
believe through mathematical and scientific analysis that design is the most
likely explanation for the immensely complex biological structures existent
today. This reasoned approach is rejected by evolutionists because it has a
strong implication for the existence of God.
So
evolution has become a political matter rather than a scientific one and anyone
doubting the theory is branded an ignorant fundamentalist. No effort is made to
even consider arguments contrary to evolution. Evolution itself has become a
religion but one which has failed on a scientific basis. There is nothing left but
theory. Nevertheless, it is now presented as settled science in public schools
and our children are being taught that, essentially, there is no God. Any
alternative theory, such as intelligent design is resisted as teaching religion.
Accepting
Darwinism takes far greater faith than simply believing in creation by an
intelligent God. Darwinists' insistence that there can be no God requires them
to subscribe to a delusional theory for they are left with nothing else.
