 I fail to see the reasoning behind an old earth. I fail to see the reasoning behind the theory of evolution.
(*"The chances of the big bang theory occuring are as likely as a printing factory blowing up and a dictionary coming together." Albert Einstein)
*I will ask again...."WHERE IS THE MISSING LINK?" If evolution is consistent why do we not see tribes or communities of half men half monkeys. We see variations of monkeys....gorillas, orangatangs, chimps, etc. and we see variations of men....eskimos, aborigines, Richard Simmons, etc. Where are the greybacks playing hopscotch or even starting camp fires? The in between is missing. Animals lack the ability to invent, imagine, or create. Monkey see monkey do.
*The woodpecker has a claw on it's tail which serves as a tripod. This is so it can peck in the same spot repeatedly without being thrown off balance. To compliment this design we see a springlike cartilage in his neck unique to this bird. To compliment this design he has a long tongue to reach inside the hole to get bugs and quickly retract them back into his mouth. To compliment this design the bird has a cavity in it's brain where the tongue is stored. Do you mean to tell me all these unique features simultaneously and independently evolved at the same rate to form one cohesive mechanism which worked so well together? In addition to keeping it's eyes closed and striking the exact same point everytime to avoid rotational damage, shock waves are transmitted less readily in the woodpecker's head than in a human's because the former has a narrow space between the skull and the brain, with very little fluid, and the woodpecker's brain is packed tightly by dense yet spongy bone which buffers the force to the brain. Additionally, some of the muscles in the woodpecker's head contract, which helps to absorb and distribute the shock. Structures from the base of the tongue extend round the brain and may also absorb shocks."
Now, think like an evolutionist. what happened to the bird before his brain was packed so tightly with that spongy bone? Could it really survive without those small, imperative, and indispensible qualities? even if it somehow managed to make it a few million years without, what made it evolve into more if it was already surviving?
*Darwin said that he shuttered when looking at a peacock feather. The beautiful pattern is used in mating but what purpose for survival does it serve? Certainly there was no need for a feather which had half of such a detailed design. Eventually it formed a specific pattern all so specifically placed. I find this hardly palatable to my reason. This points to the human eye with it's x million amount of some odd nerve endings. When there was half an eye evolving over millions and millions of eons what was the need? What did it do as half an eye? Did it see black and white and know that it was on it's way to seeing full color one day. How silly!
*Lets go way back to the beginning. DNA.Why does DNA need protein to survive? So when DNA came into existence it was a good thing protein happened to be there by chance or the DNA never would have survived. Bees and flowers. Oxygen and trees. Men and water. Seals and fish. The list goes on and on showing how all of creation is dependent on other parts of creation. You mean to tell me all these fine tuned characteristics came into place just so at just the right time in order that they all fell into sync so beautifully. I'm sorry but I need more than this in order to discredit my seeing faith and replace it with such a blind faith as evolution which demands no cogent evidence.
You see, it's not hard to be a Christian. All you have to do is prove something true that's already true.
