EVOLUTION

There is only one true way that the world and universe came into existence. God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1 says In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Many people are not educated in creation and the theory of evolution. Many believe that evolution and the big bang theory is the way that the world started. The evolutionary view is based on a false reality and false conclusions which attempt to reduce any dependence on an objective reality. This type of reasoning is due to a shift in worldviews. Now scientists everyday are proving more and more that evolution is not possible and that creation really did happen.

The first topic that we need to look at is asking ourselves if life started by chance. Molecular biophysicist, Horold Morowitz of Yale University, calculated the odds of life beginning under natural conditions or spontaneous generation. He calculated if one were to take the simplest living cell and break every chemical bond within it, the odds that the cell would reassemble under ideal natural conditions in the best possible chemical environment would be one chance in 10100,000,000,000 (Evolution and the Universe). If you try to picture this and put it into prospective, it is more likely that your whole entire extended family would win the lottery every week for one million years than for bacterium to form by chance.

Second are the laws of thermodynamics. The first law of thermodynamics (the conservation of matter) implies that matter cannot just pop into existence or create itself (Ferre 58); therefore, if the world had a beginning then something or someone caused the universe to come into existence. Creation can now be more than a religious faith but have scientific evidence. The basic reason why there is no scientific evidence of evolution in either the present or the past is that the law of increasing entropy, or the second law of thermodynamics, contradicts the very basis of evolution. The evolutionist assumes that the whole universe has evolved upward from a single primary particle to human beings, but the second law (one of the best-proved laws of science) says that the whole universe is running down into complete disorder. The second law of thermodynamics, the law of decay, implies that the universe is in a process of gradual disintegration implacably moving toward final darkness and decay (Ferre 58). The second law of thermodynamics shoots down any notion of an eternal universe. If the atom was made up any differently then it would decay and then the whole world would decay into nothing.

Creation and evolution, between them, exhaust the possible explanations for the origin of living things. Organisms either appeared on the earth fully developed or they did not. If they did not they must have developed from preexisting species by some process of modification. If they did appear in fully formed state, they must have been created by some omnipotent intelligence (Lammerts 197). It is also a very curious fact that no one understands how evolution works. Evolutionists commonly protest that they know evolution is true, but they can’t seem to determine its mechanism. One would think that in the 125 years following Darwin, with thousands trained biologists studying the problem and using millions of dollars worth of complex lab equipment, they would have worked it out by now, but the mechanism which originates new species is still “the central mystery.” It used to be claimed that the best evidence for evolution was the fossil record; however, the fact is that the billions of known fossils have not yet yielded a single unequivocal transitional form with transitional structures in the process of evolving. Not only are there no true transitional forms in the fossils; there is not even any general evidence of evolutionary progression in the actual fossil sequences (Thompson 529).

Even with all these proven facts there are still people that argue them and still believe in evolution. The idea that life came to existence from nothing is what evolution is all about. So when we say that life cannot start by chance and something cannot come out of nothing, they argue and say that it did happen and give their big bang explanation and the evolved life forms. With the facts on thermodynamics they will say that with trial and error and natural selection is why we have life today.

These facts should prove to anybody that evolution could never happen. If you look around the world today there is plenty of evidence of creation and that there has to be a creator and a designer. There is no supporting physical evidence of evolution. It takes more faith to believe in evolution that it does to believe in creation. Scientists everyday are proving more and more that evolution is not possible and that creation really did happen.
