The Rebel,
...And I guess my answer would be a theory is not a fact.
But you can actually do stuff with evolution:
Google: evolutionary algorithm for design OR evolved antenna
It works. Its built into the fundamentals of this Universe.
how honest are the proponents of evolution?
idk but curious to see what type of response there is on a topic like this or does their study only seek to confirm their preconceptions and ignore uncomfortable facts?

And was your answer: yes, 42?
Well sort of: I said look here, I have these five loaves and two fishes. I suppose you would not be that interested in eating soggy loaves, but I suspect that you'd be very interested in the two fishes. Now I'd be willing to part with the fishes on the condition that you take this beach ball and put it through that hoop. That way we all win.

Has anyone asked a dolphin his view of the world?
Yes, her answer was: Do you have any fresh fish?
"and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain.
for the old world and its evils are gone forever.
" rev.
So do the jehovahs witnesses believe that when our favorite pet dies in the new system we wont feel pain sorrow or cry?.Get real.
That's where you're wrong see. We won't keep animals as pets we'll keep people as pets.
Problem solved.

Hello there shadow,
So you want me to criticize evolution?
...Ok evolution I stab at thee.
Abiogenesis - Nobody knows exactly how it works yet. There are strong conjectures emerging and there are also busy little bees in laboratories building self replicating molecules, but nothing remotely close to a complete satisfactory explanation.
The common ancestor - Turns out these self replicating molecules were shooting their material at each other in all sorts of novel ways, so the common ancestor is probably not a single individual but rather a gooey mush of ancestors.
The fossil record - It will always remain incomplete no matter how many intermediaries are found.
AND here's the current dirty secret: Aquatic ape theory. Why are humans relatively hairless? Why do we need iodine in our diets in rather elevated quantities compared to other apes? Why can humans get sickeningly fat like sea cows? Have you ever seen an obese chimpanzee? Why are we bipedal when other apes on the savanna plains still use all fours (well mostly). There are many other facts which don't add up currently.

is it a dark square or a light square?
Even if we agree that the worm's view is "ignorant", how we rule out the possibility that our view of the world may appear similarly ignorant to a super-intelligent being that is as much more intelligent than us as we are compared with a worm?
True. Children and young people get exposed to this idea very early in life where they get to roleplay at being a omnipotent god. For example: The sims. Other popular mythologies like Dune have explored the mind of God rather extensively with the seeming cruelties and ambivalences which a deity has to display to achieve a specific end.
HOWEVER
Debates on perspective and the validity of all points of view do not feature when practical things have to be done. You will not find discussions of this nature between engineers and/or technicians (except when shooting the breeze). There is what is known that works and what does not. That which works is not empirical truth but the closest approximate understanding available, because any model of a physical thing cannot be the thing or greater than the thing itself. In short all points of view are not equal because the rules of this construct we find ourselves in have to be followed to achieve tangible results. If results are not a factor then all points of view can be valid, but it is only valid when viewed as a symbolic abstraction.
Last point, which is totally my own conjecture: Contradiction and Tautology is logic which becomes relevant and dominant the closer in time one is from a singularity.
This propaganda is all a part of the Sheepmeat council of Australia's bid to take over the world.
Their master plan is codenamed: Meat Industry Strategic Plan (MISP 2020)
Resistance is futile.

Do I believe the earth is flat? It depends. From certain perspectives it is flat of course. To the worm for example. Surely most would not deny that.
Great Tautology.
Unfortunately not a very practical logic.
Can it solve any everyday problems?
the so-called 10 commandments are a post-biblical construct.... there is an elohist list at exodus 20 and a yahwist one at exodus 34 that contains such gems as "you shall not cook a kid in its mother’s milk.".
any intelligent adult could create a more useful list of ethical precepts before the end of a coffee break.. it is interesting to compare the satanic temple's seven tenets.
i think you might agree that it makes yahweh's rules look like they were written by a bronze age power-hungry, misogynistic priest.
Still waiting for an explanation of how a good god can advocate slavery...
Its just a highly efficient form of the division of labor. I'm sure the slaves didn't mind at all. In modern times Jehovah still has a special slave, the Faithful and discreet slave. And the helper slaves are just as eager to please. No no, its positively a blessing and I'm sure in the new system we'll still all be Jehovah's eager slaves. For ever and ever and ever.
