Ten Quick Reasons Creation Is A Better Explanation Than EvolutionTuesday, July 03, 2007
The Top Ten Reasons Creation Is A Better Explanation Than Evolution1) The Universe...How did it originate?The First and Second Law of Thermodynamics are great evidence for a supernatural entity. The Universe is composed of matter and energy. Is the Universe eternal? No. The Second Law of Thermodynamics teaches that matter and energy are functions of time and that over time they decay. Since matter and energy are functions of time, they can not be independent of time (eternal).The overwhelming majority of scientists believe the Universe is not eternal. If it is not eternal, it had a beginning.Was this beginning natural? the First Law of Thermodynamics says it was not. Matter and energy is neither created nor destroyed according to the First law of Thermodynamics. Thus, an atheistic belief that the Universe "poofed" from nothing by natural means is anti-science. It is blind faith. Laws of Science show that belief in a supernatural entity is the best explanation of how the universe began, since these Laws of Thermodynamics falsify atheistic belief.2) Life...How Did It Originate?Atheists think life originated by a natural process of chemicals mixing with energy. They can believe this, but it is anti-science and a blind faith belief. The Law of Biogenesis states life only comes from life. This law is the foundation of Biology. Since life did not originate from non-life by natural means, teh best explanation is that it had a supernatural origin.3) Design. A simple definition of design is something that was planned for.The human body has 60,000 miles of blood vessels in it. The smallest blood vessels are so small, that only one red blood vessel at a time can pass through it, after its nucleus has fallen off! Red blood cells lose their nucleus so that they can be small enough to pass through your tiniest capillaries. Piping systems do not happen by chance. Especially ones that are this complex.4) Information. You started out as one tiny fertilized egg. Today you are 75 trillion cells. But you are not the same cell over and over and over again. You started as one cell, but now you have skin cells, hair cells, muscle cells, bone cells, nerve cells, blood cells etc! You have over 200 different cells in your body! One cell in your body is in your digestive tract and all it appears to do is to make mucus! Isn't that cool?And not only do you have all of these cells.....they are in the right place. You don't have bones cells on your eye ball, you don't hair cells in your spine. You are a 75 trillion piece jig saw puzzle with all the pieces in the right place. Jig saw puzzles don't get put together by chance. Do you think you did?Think. You started out as one cell, but in that cell you contained all the information required to make more cells and produce a living organism with 75 trillion cells, over 200 different types of cells and 60,000 miles of blood vessels. Information comes from an information giver. Not from nothing, nor not by chance.5) Systems.Suppose you evolved 60,000 miles of blood vessels by chance. Will it do you any good? No. You need blood, and a heart. Suppose you evolved blood and a heart and 60,000 miles of blood vessels by chance. Will it do you any good? No. You need a nervous system, a skeletal system, a digestive system, a respiratory system etc. But all of those systems are useless without the circulatory system!Creation believes in instant people. You can't wait around for a liver to evolve. Creation believes a supernatural entity instantly made humans with functioning hearts, livers, lungs, brains, kidneys, spleens, intestines etc. This makes sense because they all need each other to function and to keep the organism alive.6) Sex.Which came first the chicken or the egg? Two chickens, a functional male and functional female (please see chicken and egg article on this web site). For the many animals that reproduce by sexual reproduction, they need male equipment in part of the population and female equipment in the other part of the population. Both systems are very complex and very unique. Once again, creationists believe in "instant people." And that includes instant males and instant females. My dad is my favorite philosopher. He once said, "You know why Adam and Eve had to be adults? Because human babies are so helpless!" great point dad!7) Living Evidence.If the theory of evolution occurred, there had to be transitional forms. These transitional forms were the animals that were the "links" between reptiles and birds, ape-men and humans etc. There would have had to be millions of these transitional forms! But not one is alive today. Why not? Either they never existed or they did exist and all vanished. If they do exist today where are they? If they don't exist today, that is powerful evidence for Creation.If the theory of evolution is true, this should be true. You have an ape in a cage at a zoo. You pay 50 bucks to look at the ape. If the theory of evolution is true, there should be living organisms that get a 25 dollar discount because the ape in the cage is a close relative. 8) Fossil Evidence.There are trillions of fossils. yet, in my opinion (trying to be fair here) no transitional forms. evolutionists will claim there are many, but upon close scrutiny, each one can easily be classified as belonging to animals alive today, or an organism that is not transitional, but simply extinct (i.e. trilobites or dinosaurs). If the theory of evolution is true, there should be millions of transitional forms. Lets suppose the theory of evolution is true. Evolutionists believe reptiles are ancestral to birds. The fossil record should have thousands of fossils of half legs/half wings; half scales half feathers; half reptile feet/half bird feet etc. Yet none of these clear transitional fossils exist. many quotes by Evolutionists support this claim.9) Genetics and Biochemistry.To quote my daughter when she was three and talking to a high school girl: "Don't forget, crows make crows."She is right, and genetics supports her contention. Crow DNA can only make a crow. If you mutate it, you might get a goofy crow, or a dead crow, or an unchanged crow, but you won't get a different animal. Mutations make lung cancer, they don't make lungs.10) The Anthropic Principle.The earth has the proper temperature, the proper gravity, the proper amount of oxygen, the proper mass ratio of the electron and proton, the proper charge between electrons and protons etc. etc. etc. The odds of an average protein getting the proper sequence by chance is enormous. Let's look at the odds.Imagine an alphabet with 20 letters. Suppose I made a word from this alphabet that was 400 letters long, and asked you to guess the sequence of letters that make up the word. What would be the odds that you would guess it by chance? The odds would be one to 20 times 20 times 20 times 20......400 times! It would be 1 to 20 to the 400th power. This is the same as one to ten to the 520th power. That is a 1 followed by 520 zeros. The odds are greater that you would win California super lotto 500 times in a row than one protein sequence occurring by chance. We are not even talking about a cell, much less an organ, much less a human body.In statistics, something that is 10 to the 50th is considered impossible. Thus one protein by chance is highly impossible.Think of this for a second. If the odds against a protein sequence happening by chance it 10 to the 520th power, the odds that it happened by design is the inverse, 10 to the 520th power in favor of it.
