God's Existence

[OsamaAbouelhassan]

I don't think a god exists
I think that because I'm not religious

The thing is, believing is not related to being religious or even have a religion, your mind is the one who realises that through the surroundings whether they were facts, phenomena, space, etc .. , a closer look around is the key.

I do not agree with religion.

I believe it's something made up for people to believe in for whatever reasons they wish.

I believe the theory of evolution because it's the most logical one to me.

It might be called the 'evolution theory', but we've got some solid evidence to support it

That's been mentioned here a lot, supplied with facts but still...we all just cannot agree that you may chose one or another.

Agreed

Agreed

Tell me about your beliefs and the evolution theory.

[Astrl]

Tell me about your beliefs and the evolution theory.

How about you tell me about your beliefs that God placed you on the earth?

People who are "placed" on the earth still have parents who think Mary in the bible was a virgin.
Yes, of course she was.

I gather that your parents have never had sex with each other and you magically just appeared out of no where?
I gather you've never had "the talk" with your parents yet?

Tell me about your beliefs and the evolution theory.

Already explained here more than 10 times. At least 5 by me.

Yeah.. your parents had sex with each other and you were magically created on your mother womb. And you were magically or randomly shaped. And your organs were magically or randomly shaped. And you got a brain which was magically or randomly created. And you got well-protected DNA with dozens of data stored on it which was magically or randomly inserted. And you randomly got one mouth, one nose and two eyes which every human being gets randomly and this random number doesn't change because its random. And randomly you got five fingers and this random number doesn't change because its random. And randomly you got the ability to hear, sense, process, see, speak. And you randomly got the ability to talk. And you randomly got a sexual organ which randomly creates another human being. And you got a heart which is also random and pumps blood. And you die which is also random. Interesting!

2. It doesn't matter what it is as long as it explains the reasons for life and the vast diversity we see around us. I don't care if you want to believe it or not but it is the truth. If you still haven't found your answer, I wish you had asked it more clearly because I could've answered it but your question doesn't make any sense.

3. No it doesn't have to be that unimaginable. A small useful mutation is enough for evolution. If it was sk huge, then the progeny wouldn't be able to reproduce. The chances for it are very low but think about how many animals of the same specie are reproducing in the each seconds during our talks.

2. The new beetles you mentioned are still beetles, that is not change of kinds, which is what evolution is about. It doesn't explain the reasons for life and the vast diversity we see around us, that's the thing. I asked it as clearly as I could and I'm sure my question made perfect sense.

3. What if the mutation happens on the regular cells (the ones with full number of chromosomes) and not on the gametes? In that case, the mutation won't be passed on. And what if a mutation on the gametes occurs, that alters the number of chromosomes in the gamete, making the organism unable to reproduce (taking in consideration that it is a multicellular organism)? When you examine possible evolutionary evidence, how are you able to know what exactly happened and how it supports the theory of evolution?
