    It would seem that evolution should not be studied on it's own, there just is not enough information there to draw accruate conclusions and gain confidence on it's study or theory.

    It should be studied though with other sciences with an open mind set, such as geology, genetics, bio physics and even astral physics to name a few. Once a indept study on those sciences

    has occurrded, then a confidence and a probability factor can be obtained from evolution theory and it's understanding. To study it on it's own is futile and unbelieveable for anyone to take

    on by it's self, there are to many missing pieces in the puzzle to make an accruate and truthful viewpoint.

    One bad thing that can be said about religion like the WTS. and others is that they have purposely thwarted attempts for man to discover anything about this world and of himself.

    To quote from the WT " universities and collages are godless and immoral institutions and youth should be wise to stay clear of those places " .......something along those lines.

    Kind of like any knowledge gained there could and will weaken my power, authority and control and it would be best to avoid such an effort............just to use an example.

    Thankfully we can say that man has taken off the box from his head that religion has placed there and we can is now reap the awards in doing so !

    Actually lonelysheep - you just have to choose whatever fits your personal model best - your view of the world is yours to choose. If you feel that you have had a spiritual experience with God you are likely to believe if you have had nada you're likely to go the atheist (or at least agnostic) route but either way evolution isn't a proof either way for these views. Evolution as a theory gets devalued when its used as an anti-God tool just as christians devalue their God when they make Him jump through 6 day hoops despite all the facts. Faith is belief in true things (so if you profess faith in Santa Claus its not really faith as defined here) - scientists exercise faith as much as christians do - we trust that our concept of truth is good enough to make sense of our world. If there is no god then christian faith collapses into the same arena as the pink unicorn brigade.

    Hi Q,

    I understand your point on this, however, the theory offers us an explanation of life itself. Where is any evidence-backed theory for the contrary (God)?

    Faith is belief in true things (so if you profess faith in Santa Claus its not really faith as defined here) - scientists exercise faith as much as christians do - we trust that our concept of truth is good enough to make sense of our world.

    Actually, Q, quite the opposite is true.
    Faith:

    1 a : allegiance to duty or a person : loyalty b (1) : fidelity to one's promises (2) : sincerity of intentions 2 a (1) : belief and trust in and loyalty to God (2) : belief in the traditional doctrines of a religion b (1) : firm belief in something for which there is no proof (2) : complete trust 3 : something that is believed especially with strong conviction ; especially : a system of religious beliefs <the Protestant faith>

    If there is no god then christian faith collapses into the same arena as the pink unicorn brigade.

    Exactly, which is why we should all be wearing pink unicorns on our necklaces!
