Theory of Evolution and humanity are moving in parallel, and in opposite direction too!
by iconoclastic inproponents of evolution theory was comfortable with their easiest method of induction that says something like this: i saw a blind man in the us, then in russia, then in australian, then in africa ..., hence all men are blind.
yet proofs are abundant for the decline (opposite of evolution) we experience globally!.
1) most humans declined into greed, the result of which is climate change which has the potential to wipe out all life from the earth.

It's amazing that people put up a lot of posts covering every one of the OP's points and s/he doesn't bother to respond in any detail. -

Evolutionary theory is one of the most proven scientific theories there are, it has proven consistant with pretty much all of of our scientific studies of biology. I am unclear exactly what you are trying to say with your quote since evolution says nothing of the kind, perhaps you could elaborate on what it is about evolution that you disagree with.
Yet proofs are abundant for the decline (opposite of evolution) we experience globally!
Decline in what? Living standards? No, those are up
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index
"The Human Development Index (HDI) is a comparative measure of life expectancy, literacy, education, standards of living, and quality of life for countries worldwide. It is a standard means of measuring well-being, especially child welfare"
If you look at the referenced sources you will see a lot of green arrows showing how by any measure life is improving for the majority of people. Perhaps you could specify exactly what measure you think has gone down?
1) Most humans declined into greed, the result of which is climate change which has the potential to wipe out all life from the earth. July 2015 was the hottest month in recorded history.(http://www.cbsnews.com/news/july-2015-was-hottest-month-on-record-globally/) Global recession (another effect of greed) that started in 2008 is now all set to assume the size of a global tornado!
I would agree that we are all responsible for our response to global warming, I wouldn't agree that it is down to greed since I don't see that there is a clear link between the two at least at an individual level.
2) Religions (from religare, "reunite") declined into divisiveness!
Religions are as divisive as they have ever been, perhaps you could point to a period of history where religions where not stirring up hatred, war or trying to run the lives of people who either don't subscribe or subscribe to a different religion.
3) When people were told to sacrifice the beast called ego, they declined into the easier option of sacrificing a literal animal (followed by eating its flesh too)
Didn't the bible say that we could eat animals? Sounds like your religion is trying to sow the seeds of divisiveness to me.
4) Human body too is on the reverse gear with deadly disease being on the increase (https://agenda.weforum.org/2013/09/how-to-stop-the-rise-of-deadly-new-diseases/)
See my previous answer, if your suggestion were true then the human population should be decreasing surely? Perhaps you could tell us if the human population is decreasing or if it is in fact increasing massively?
5) Bible correctly foretold a global moral decline (the very opposite of evolution) in 2 Timothy 3:1-5
Global moral decline (the decline in crime in most western countries suggests that we are becoming more moral rather than less of course) is not the opposite of evolution, this suggests to me that you don't understand what the word evolution means in the context of biology. It doesn't mean improvement.
All the scientific achievements we have made so far is the result of various combinations we have tried with properties of various elements of nature, most of which came with their ill-effects too, thus neutralizing all the supposed benefits—hardly an evolution from good to better.
Science has pretty much eradicated polio and we can see the benefits of all sorts of technology and medicine. In the western world we dont have to worry about a small cut getting infected, surgery is relatively safe, we have clean water to drink, our food is safe to eat and we live long healthy lives. What are the side effects that wipe out those benefits? We don't have to go back that far back to see high mortality rates and unsafe living conditions for most people. It is interesting that you complain about science whilst sat at your computer, pampered and well fed, I would say that makes you a hypocrite.
This is the reason why we find some scientists who do not believe the theory of evolution.
Real scientists working in the field of evolutionary biology publish their work in peer reviewed scientific journals, there isn't a single peer-reviewed piece of work that disagrees with the fundamentals of evolution. The people you have found either do not work in the field and are thus unqualified to discuss evolution or are not scientists at all.

Won't get fooled again ...Moon Landing.
by The Rebel inso i was fooled by the witnesses.
what can i learn from that?
not to accept things at face value but to seek out opinion and different view points.. hence my question " do you believe man landed on the moon?.

A) Because NASA are not funded to the same degree as they were in the sixties, not even taking into account inflation NASA has a budget less than the cost of the moon landings. You would have to increase the NASA budget tenfold to get to the sort of money they need to get to the moon. The cost in the sixties for the moon landing was $25Billion, NASAs entire budget this year was $18Billion.
B) Because it is a matter of public record that NASA is not funded to the same degree and hence is the sort of question that you could find the answer to yourself given a computer and five minutes.
In engineering you have three criteria cheap, accurate and on-time. You get to pick two so if you want it cheap and you don't want it to go wrong then it is going to take time.
Re-posted as the OP seems to have missed my answer to his/her question.

I suppose I would count as an expert in engineering and to a lesser degree in physics and I have not seen a single piece of believable 'evidence' that the moon landings were faked.

Labeling one self "Atheist" is Unscientific
by LAWHFol ini have not meet all atheists, and it would be foolish for me to assume that all atheists, share the same prototypical view points.
i am inclined to feel that this classifies the views of a large percentage of atheists.
"atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence of deities.

I think this thread may be used in the future as an example of someone having their arse handed to them on a plate. Wow. -

Poor wording, it is about conceiving of something you don't know.
If by poor wording you are talking about your post I would agree, although everything I've seen of your argument suggests that the poor wording is merely a reflection of the lack of cogency you put into it's formulation.
The fact that most atheists have put a great deal of thought and critical thinking into labelling themselves atheist does not mean that it is a necessary step, in fact as has been previously pointed out it is agnosticism that implies a thought process without knowledge.

I told you to pick something you don't know and have not thought about...
Also, you may not think about it after, and use that in your conclusion
Wow, the logic train really did leave you at the station!

Jesus Christ explains the particle used in my cosmology theory using parables in the bible.
by Aleon ini wrote a cosmology theory using an expanding particle shaped as a perfect sphere.
in the bible jesus christ speaks of this particle in his parables.
this is good news!.

In this case the "theory" is a system that is a logical deduction of particle behavior that explains real life phenomena. And everything fits just as it should. Even gravity is fully explained.
That isn't the standard scientific definition of the word theory but If everything fits as it should how are quantum mechanics and special relativity related?

Can you define the word theory for me?
