The answer to the universe

Posted by HeroofTime55 on June 16, 2006, 4:42 p.m.

Ok i was inspired to put my full thoughts on evolution and God and everything related into a blog entry. Im hoping there is no character limit to blog entries, 'cause this should be a long one. so long i doubt ill get it all in today.

Ok, so, basically, theres this whole debate over evolution. Theres a bunch of wackos who think that evolution, which is a proven fact of science, somehoew dosent exist. They think this because they see the idea as incompatible with their religious beliefs. I believe they are narrow minded, because if enough thought is put into it, it is obvious that evolution is not only compatible with their beliefs, but that it was part of God's master plan.

First, let me describe the laws of nature. No, not each one, but all as a single collection of rules. These rules are the ones that apply to basc atomic physics, and subatomic particles and everything, down to the smallest, likely not yet discovered unit of matter/energy/whatever (i believe energy and matter exist in the same particle…. ill describe it later…) So anyway, theres rules, laws of physics, that apply to everything. Things like the 'four forces' (gravity being the most well known), and other rules that define how everything in the universe operates. As humans we know a few of these rules. Some we dont understand, because we evolved with the need only to understand our world. It was never needed for our survival to accept other laws. And many i am sure we do not yet know. Think of unusual 'supernatural' or sci-fi situations like wormholes and such. How do they work? rules we dont yet know. And to deny the possibility of rules like such, is completly foolish. to deny something just because there is no scientific proof in favor of it, is incredibly narrow-minded. Did atoms not exist before their discovery? And this goes for the athiests out there: There is no scientific proof ruling out God.

Now then, with these rules in the universe, everything MUST, and AT ALL TIMES, do as the rules say. There is no breaking rules, it is physically impossible, unless there exists another rule to provide for rule breaking.

For example, everything must obey gravity, nothing can decide to let gravity act 'up' on itself rather than 'down'. and nothing can not experience gravity when near other matter. It is my belief that God created such rules for His creation to operate in. Think of God as a programmer, and the universe is his program. He tells it what to do. (but he can always decide to step in and make something go against his rules, but manually. The rules define everything without His interference)

He created the rules to make the world operate as He wished.

Now then, to evolution: I cant stand people with the notion that "Evolution is against God" and whatever. First off, most of the bible serves to teach lessons rather than accurately record history. Second, these people put no thought into their stance.

Evolution dosent disprove God. It was actually part of his master plan. As humans, we are infinitely, for lack of a better word, dumber than God. When we create something, it needs matinence. If we dont carefully watch over it, care for it, repair it, it will break down. God is smarter than that, and he has the resources available to do better. His creation can maintain itself. When left alone, it dosent [physically] need his help. This method of self matinence is evolution. Realize, this is not as individuals, but as a species as a whole. Individual humans can get sick or disabled, we get old, we die. But the species as a whole survives.

Now then, not only does evolution not disprove God, but it can prove His existance. Evolution can explain many features of our species. But there are a few that do not fit in. For example, our enjoyment of music. Why would we evolve this, something that is of no benifit to our survival and reproduction? And its not just a little thing, there is a sizeable portion of our brains devoted entirely to music. The only explanation is that some higher being put it there, possibly due to the fact that it wouldnt turn up due to normal evolution. (either that, or i'm too stupid to see how it might be of importance to the survival of the species).

Well, thats it for now. Ill expand on my theories in later blogs. Im a thinker, and i got a crapload of stuff to share. But i gotta go for now…. :(

I don't agree with evolution, I don't believe in god at all. So what about people like me?

…You actually seem to put thought into it, and thats good. But i dont see how anyone can deny evolution, a proven fact. If you want to debate long term, from-the-very-beginning evolution, thats understandable. But anything after that, i dont see how anyone could possibly argue against it. But if you have an argument, i would very much like to hear it, it could provide insight to more things i have overlooked.

Worm holes are proven false, there was really no evidence to support their existence in the first place, they are what I think of religion, they only ever existed because our puny minds want something to believe in that is above ourselves. God must have been one hell of a programmer to make an intelligence system capable of denying his existence…

Evolution is a proven fact? Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm talking from the beginning. If we can't talk from the beginning, we can't talk about anything after.

I don't really have the time to propose any of my own arguments as of now, because I'm busy with a few things. I'll see about it later. =]

um yes proven. Darwin did his experiments with pea plants, and off of that, its common sense. Of course, thinking about it, there could be a 'rule' we dont understand here. unlikely? very. impossible? no. :P

#5: I'm about to read that book…

#6: Logic linkinking genetics with common sense (A strong person has a better chance of fighting a bear than a cripple) Makes natural selection…

Genetics + Common sense=evolution

Evolution would have taken way too long to form humans, in my opinion.

HeroofTime55 18 years, 5 months ago

well, human evolution DID take millions of years… and thats only counting from monkeys to now.

err…wasn't Mendel who worked with pea plants?
