EVOLUTION OR CREATION

                                                   EVOLUTION OR CREATION

Psalm 14a: The fool hath said in his heart, “There is no God.”

Romans 1:19-20  Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. (v.20) For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse….

Evolutionists and Creationists begin with a similar premise; “if.” On the side of the evolutionist the argument begins, “if there is no God….” And, it is then followed by myriad suppositions, questions and unprovable conclusions of how absolutely everything came from absolutely nothing.

The creationist has one “if;” also. God. Everything is reasonable, logical and orderly…. If God.

Psalm 14a above shows why evolution has such difficulty. In their hatred of God they have tried to remove Him from His own creation. For the creationist, if God exists then His creation makes sense and it is understandable because it was created by an infinitely powerful eternal being. And, in his creation of each one of us, He has placed an understanding of Himself and all that is around us. We can see God in God’s creation.

Begin anywhere and the conclusion will be the same. That which should be simple, is not simple. Atoms, for example, should be simple enough. You see, evolutionists want to start with… something. But you can’t. You simply must begin with atoms. A simple explanation I was reading recently began with:

Atoms are the basic particles of the chemical elements and the fundamental building blocks of matter. An atom consists of a nucleus of protons and generally neutrons, surrounded by an electromagnetically bound swarm of electrons. The chemical elements are distinguished from each other by the number of protons that are in their atoms. For example, any atom that contains 11 protons is sodium, and any atom that contains 29 protons is copper. Atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons are called isotopes of the same element….

In order to understand how anything came into existence one must begin here. Where did the protons and neutrons in the nucleus come from? 

Before anything existed, in the great void that would one day become this great cosmos, why did a proton or neutron ever exist at all? And which existed first, the proton or the neutron? And why did the other come into existence? But even there, if we explained that issue, we would still need to discover why an electron, of any type, came into existence, and then why it decided to circle that first nucleus?

And of course, this conundrum goes on ad infinitum. That single first atom had to “decide” to “become” all of the variations in the universe we have today. And that, (how one atom ever decided to multiply and become everything in the universe) is only the issue with the atom. Other issues abound.

Here, evolution ignores the basic principle of cause-and-effect. If nothing caused it to come into existence, it would not. If nothing caused it to change from its original form, it would not. And yet for evolution to be true, the first atom must come into existence all by itself and then change trillions upon trillions of times without cause. 

Need something more complex? Below is a photo of who you are. And by the way, this is not the only part of the human which is complicated beyond comprehension, it is simply a prime example. As stated earlier, this is who you are. Your body operates in the way that it does in order to carry this to the various places it wishes to go and to communicate with others as it wills. The brain did not evolve. 

Spiritually speaking we have a soul which is not dependent on the body or the brain. Rather, the soul operates on the spiritual level and communicates with God and other spirits. However, on the earthly level we communicate with each other by means of this blob we call a brain. Our arms do not communicate, nor do any other parts or members of our body. Instead, our brain uses our body to function and to communicate as it needs. Evolution did not “create” such an amazing being. That mass protected within your skull is so intricate and technical it confounds the wisest among us. 

Did evolution decide people would be massive blobs? And then, “evolution” realized those blobs would need to be protected and so evolution placed them within skulls? And then, maybe, do you think evolution, seeing these blobs rolling around on the earth realized they needed to be able to move and so evolution then created our bodies?

Yes, I do know evolution tries to say it was micro-mutations over eons of time. That would still involve the foolish ideas presented above. First, there is no brain. Why would one ever even begin to develop? Or, first there is no body, just a simple, tiny blob lying on the ground. Neither of those could have occurred anyway because the atom is still lying helpless and alone. And if either those ever did occur, they would have remained the same forever because of the principle of cause-and-effect.

 

Need more? How do living organisms live within the 60,000 miles of blood vessels we have within these bodies? Living within our blood, as it passes through our bodies all day long every day are other living organisms; both good and bad. Just one example of this is the macrophage. It is a living entity in our blood that finds, engulfs and then digests bacteria and viruses, as well as clearing out dead cells and debris to help keep us healthy. Was our blood having trouble one day when evolution “decided” we needed help and “decided” tiny organisms could be placed within our blood stream?

And why 60,000 miles of blood vessels? If evolution were just hit and miss, wouldn’t it only have created about 37 feet of blood vessels and called it good? 60,000 miles had to be the creation of a true God.

The examples of evolutionary foolishness and Divine creation are endless. Nobody can scientifically hold to evolution. People hold to it because they reject God, it is a choice, “The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God.” It is a last-ditch effort to remove God; not a scientific journey.
