How can people deny the facts?
If you deny evolution you are denying scientific evidence because it conflicts with pre-existing religious beliefs you hold. If you believe in evolution but not in the case of humans you must be lying to yourself. I have a religion but lately I've been pondering if belief in evolution would contradict my beliefs.

Evolution is a religion and it has no real world evidence to /prove/ it.
>my ancestor was a rock that turned into soup that became alive and transformed into all live today because... well... just have faith chud
Evolutionists are trannies anyway, they believe they can evolve into women.
Do you think God spirited down all the animals to Earth from the heavens? Did he do it all at once or in installments?
>bit bored today. Might get rid off dinosaurs and make more mammals. 'Ate dinos, luv mammals.
ummmmmmmmmmm creation bros.... how we explaining this one
>god put monkey viral genes in humans,,,,, to test our faith?????
Guess he just used the same code when making everything. Makes much more sense than having a common ancestor.
Also creatures who are similar to each other tend to have more closely related genetics, weird, at least God used ctrl+v when he was making all life. Well except when things convergently evolve, like Hyraxes and marmots. I guess god just felt like using the whale code to make a small rodent thing. Obviously we're coded by an invisible old man in the sky on an invisible space computer. Not share common ancestors. Occam's' razor anyone?
Honestly I'm thinking of shelving my religious beliefs altogether. Too much cognitive dissonance, I can't rationalise it any longer.
You’ll be better off. Living a lie inherently creates discord stress and discomfort
>There'll be no more talking to Whos who are not!
Only reason I go on with the pretense is that my family, friends and most people around me are religious. If I were to openly renounce my beliefs they would very likely take a negative view of me. I want to believe in something otherworldly but I can't lie to myself. If there was a religion which could convince me I would follow it but unfortunately I don't think such a religion exists.
I love you (like a brother), fact-based poster.
Don't go around openly telling them that you're not part of the religion anymore, then. My guess is that they don't do random faith checks. Just reduce how much service you do with them over time, find something else to do, things like that. Unless you were a Muslim then good luck.
Haha good luck I suppose, I'm from a Muslim background. Not so bad though, nobody expects me to go to the mosque or pray. Only thing I do is fasting during Ramadan and that's because I treat it like a challenge.
>I drew lines on a picture between silhouettes I copy/pasted
Wow, you really proved evolution there... idiot.
Lol, schizo off his meds again
Why didn't Big Sky Daddy send down his revelations sooner, boy? Why did he need multiple revelations? Why has he stopped directly communicating with us?
More proof for evolution than there is for God. Not ruling out the existence of a God but to shut down evolution just because it conflicts with your religion's origin story is quite pathetic.
>Evolution is a religion
What's the end game of religion defenders whose first insult is to call something religious? They must have some sort of mental block from spending thousands of years arguing against other religions, that they literally can't start to grasp atheism unless they categorise it in terms of religion.
It's apologetics bro, it's to keep doubting insecure idiots convinced they're not that.
>if something is a religion it's bad
the fedora must be grafted into your skull at this point

Let it be known! The great merciful God who loves all of mankind unconditionally will leave you to burn and be tortured in big scary fire if you touch yourself in naughty places.
xstians be like
>okay I observed micro evolution and DNA and know the earth is millions of years old
>NO YOU CAN'T JUST STEM FROM A COMMON ANCESTOR YOU CAN'T CHANGE FORMS, HOW CAN SMALL MONKEY MAN BECOME TALL MONKEY MAN AFTER 4 MILLION YEARS
>obviously a big invisible cloud man in the sky made a garden and a talking snake tricked ribwich women eat a magic apple and then they needed to put 2 of every land animal on earth even though there are millions of species on a big boat.
>even though there are Chinese and black people whose DNA would have diverged millions of years ago we are all the product of two people who were related.
Evolution is fake unscientific bullshit but I believe it
also God did it
checkmate atheists
Would you believe it if your mother was a vaudevillian prostitute who would be violently gangbanged monkeys during burlesque shows?
That's the truth. They can't wrap their heads round the concept.
>why are apes still alive if they evolved into humans?
Either that or they take to insulting the other person.
>ho ho ho Darwin looked like a monkey ho ho ho.
>every abrahamoid's argument against evolution requires them to wildly misrepresent it
Lol
this is exactly what you said about the big bang until it was disproven
If not the Big Bang what was it, surely not God saying "let there be light"?
That would be Joe.
Who is the last common ancester of all humans?
You see, the conservative right is not bery bright. It should be obvious by now.
You Japanese?
Why do you think it so impossible for an individual to be both conservative and an appreciator of the principle of evolution?
Maybe he's moronic
>the conservative right is not bery bright.
The conservative hardliners and rightists of the Right Opposition were literally the smartest faction-label in the entire party apparatus (before factionalism was abolished). Are you some kind of Zinoviev left-communist? Right-communism and socialism in one country was the only way to defend the first Marxist state.
>not one single instance of speciation
>your ancestor is monke
>not one single instance of God plopping a new species onto the planet
>evolution is a ruse
You do realise how long evolution takes?
>it's only happens when we're not looking bro
if i said this you would clown the shit out of me, how about you be fair and adhere to your own standards
Every animal species is an instance of speciation with abundant hard evidence of their relation to other organisms primarily DNA and fossil evidence confirms.
On a more down to earth every day note, if you cannot believe red squirrels are closely related to grey squirrels I think you just have poor judgment.
The reason why they have DNA relation is because they wouldn't be able to exist if they didn't. The reason why fossils exist is because some animal died and its bones were preserved, that doesn't imply anything other than that. It lived, it died.
They may have similar designs simply because other designs would be non-viable biologically speaking.
>The reason why they have DNA relation is because they wouldn't be able to exist if they didn't
Yeah no shit, they’re related. This is like if we looked at you and your cousin’s DNA, saw you had similarities and we both agreed that you need to have those similarities in DNA. Yeah I know, what is your point.
Then how did animals today come about? By that logic it sounds as though all animals existed together at some point, some died out and others persisted to today. Did kangaroos live alongside sauropod dinosaurs? It sounds ridiculous doesn't it?
>They may have similar designs simply because other designs would be non-viable biologically speaking.
Really, you can't imagine a viable wing that isn't made out of a tetrapod's forelimbs?
and not even that but there are different takes on it (bats and birds have rather different wings, plus the pseudowings of gliders) yet all of them look exactly as if they evolved out of a tetrapod's forelimbs rather than being creatures created for flight, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
This would be a bit like, if designing a plane, you started with a ship or a train and made it increasingly more airworthy until it could fly.
>I have no idea of what I'm talking about so I'm going to give my hot opinions about the topic, instead of looking it up
>looking it up
Anon some people are not cut out for it. I truly believe that evolution is too complicated for a significant portion of people to grasp. It requires too much abstract thinking and cognition to look at a mouse and a rat and realize these two animals are distant cousins from two populations that went their own ways in the remote past.
Never mind more distantly related animals..
Well there are genuine morons out there so that's a given, but I think anyone of sound mind should be capable of grasping it if they're told about it and bother to think about it. Everything that makes no sense otherwise just seems to fall into place, anyone with above 90 IQ or so ought to be able to see that if they're not motivated to deny that for outside reasons.
Here here. The only reason that this denial of evolution still persists is because there is an ulterior reason, to believe in evolution would conflict with their preconceived beliefs and then they would have to question the world view they have been indoctrinated into from childhood.
We've only really known about evolution since the 19th century. At the very least it takes hundreds of thousands, if not millions of years for new species to emerge as a result of evolution. If evolution has occurred there would be no way of possibly documenting it as it happened. We can however see animals who have adapted and changed over generations. Dogs are essentially wolves, thousands of years our ancestors bred them for certain characteristics and they have changed over time into how they look today. Select breeding shows how animals can change. The dog is a sub-species of the wolf but it's quite possible that over many many generations they'll no longer be able to produce fertile offspring and so they'll be distinct species.
same goes for climate change denial and vax spazzes
I agree. Lay people who haven't got a clue think they can argue and disprove scientists who are experts on the subject matter.
dude i fricking LOVE monkeys mate
they're fricking awesome
imagine being a frickin CHIMP
I'm glad you love them friend. I always liked Donkey Kong as a kid. Perhaps you've heard of the Wickersham Brothers?
Humans (Nordic and Slavic whites) came from the Pleiades star system and colonized Mars first before fleeing to Earth after a catastrophe. They used genetic manipulation to turn apes into slave races (blacks/browns/yellows/reds/etc...).
Oh so they're like The Jetsons?
