- 00:03
- I know that the last two weeks that we've been talking about evolution has been really tough for some of you.
- 00:09
- I understand that some of you are raised in families that don't believe in evolution, for religious reasons.
- 00:15
- But in my class, I try to teach you to think for yourself. Are there any questions?
- 00:23
- No questions? Kayla, you've been unusually quiet.
- 00:30
- You always have challenges for me. Uh, no. That's okay.
- 00:37
- But I know there's a God. I felt him. You can't explain my entire faith away with just a couple of chapters from a science book.
- 00:45
- Mark, feelings can be compelling, but also very misleading. Now, I don't mind if you have faith in your
- 00:52
- God. But science doesn't require faith. It requires evidence. Anyone else?
- 01:00
- Well, it seems to me that that's just what's missing from the whole idea of evolution. What's missing?
- 01:07
- Evidence. Evidence is missing. It just seems that it takes much more faith to believe in evolution than to believe in a designer.
- 01:15
- Do you have any examples? Well, how about when the textbook talks about the law of biogenesis?
- 01:22
- How life cannot come from non -life. But then in the next chapter, it talks about how all life sprung from non -living material.
- 01:31
- And then it talks about mutation and natural selection and how it can change one animal into another.
- 01:37
- But mutation only loses information, and natural selection can only choose from what's there. So how does a simple living organism turn into something like us?
- 01:46
- I mean, you have to think about, like, the complexity of the human eye. And how we could never design something like that.
- 01:52
- Or how the human body can heal itself. I just don't understand how some half -pound insect -eating shrew that somehow dodged whatever killed the dinosaurs could evolve from ape to ape man over millions of unseen years and then poof!
- 02:09
- You have humans! If evolution were true, we'd have millions of in -between creatures running around everywhere, right?
- 02:15
- And all of the in -between fossils could fit in the back of my Prius. And you know what else?
- 02:21
- I just don't understand how all of this started. I mean, you say that science doesn't rely on faith, but evolution requires faith.
- 02:30
- Faith that everything just burst out of nothing. That gas clouds collapsed and turned into stars.
- 02:36
- And all this stuff just collided around the sun to create planets. Including Earth, that is just the right distance away from the sun to sustain life.
- 02:46
- It requires faith to believe that living organisms, created male and female, crawled out of the water and then magically became land -dwelling animals, which then became humans.
- 02:57
- All without intelligence or design? I just think it takes a lot more faith to believe in evolution than it does to believe that all the design, marvelous design, around us points to a designer.
- 03:10
- And now I'm just rambling, so does anyone else have a question? BELL RINGS Stand strong in your faith.
