Sir Julian Huxley (one of the great pillars of modern neo-Darwinism) may be a symbol of people who feel God is a burden because he wrote: “The God hypothesis . . . is becoming an intellectual and moral burden on our thought." Therefore, he concluded that "we must construct something to take its place. (Essays of a Humanist, Julian Huxley, New York: Harper and Row, 1964, p. 222) He even described evolution as a "Religion Without Revelation" and wrote a book with that title (2nd edition, 1957). And evolution theory became a part of the curriculum, and many thought this is science.
Because scientists have contributed to comforts of people by way of their inventions of various tools and gadgets, people would think everything scientists say is scientific. This is like saying “whatever a joker says is a joke.” Just like there may be many things which are not joke in the daily conversation of a joker, there may be many things which are not scientific with regard to the scientists, as exemplified in the case of Huxley. Even great scientists and engineers can make mistake. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_science_and_engineering_blunders). Stephen Hawking admitted the biggest blunder of his scientific career. (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/stephen-hawking-admits-the-biggest-blunder-of-his-scientific-career-early-belief-that-everything-8568418.html) This is true of other brilliants minds (https://listverse.com/2014/07/30/10-scientific-blunders-of-genius-minds/) Interestingly, one of evolutionists’ acts that proved to be a hoax later is listed as one of the 20 greatest blunders of science. (http://discovermagazine.com/2000/oct/featblunders)
But nature has its ways of repaying (Galatians 6:7). Global warming is sounding a death knell on the Theory of Evolution:
1) The much publicized natural selection is NOT going to happen in the case of many fishes in the sea. (https://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/08/climate-change-study-ocean-fish-size/) Fish won’t be able to get enough oxygen to grow if ocean waters keep heating up. Fish, as cold-blooded animals, cannot regulate their own body temperatures. When ocean waters become warmer, a fish’s metabolism accelerates, and it needs more oxygen to sustain its body functions. Fish breathe through gills, organs that extract dissolved oxygen from the water and excrete carbon dioxide.
2) Natural selection would NOT work on many lizard and insect species also as they could be completely wiped out by global warming because they cannot evolve quickly enough to deal with rising temperatures. (http://www.independent.co.uk/environment/nature/cold-blooded-species-face-wipeout-as-they-cannot-cope-with-global-warming-study-says-10262099.html)
3) Natural selection is NOT going to happen in the case of one sixth of earth’s species. (https://www.popsci.com/climate-change-could-wipe-out-entire-species)
4) The global temperatures could wipe out even over 50 per cent of animal and plant species. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change_and_ecosystems)
5) Rising temperatures could wipe out more than half of the earth's species (http://www.nzherald.co.nz/united-nations/news/article.cfm?o_id=227&objectid=10471858)
6) Environmental change to wipe out all species—including humanity in 100 years (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-4888574/1-20-chance-climate-change-wipe-humanity.html)
Thus both sea and climate are going to disprove Evolution Theory and its main subject Natural Selection by making it obvious that species can’t adapt according to the changing environment. Then the mankind will come to know that God is our help (not a burden) and only He can recreate 8.7 million species to start the new world again. (Revelation 21:1, 5)

If mathematics teacher made a mistake, would it mean mathematics itself is wrong!
by venus inmany people point to the irrationality in the depiction of god by the religions and their scriptures, hence jump into the bottomless pit of atheism.
in either camp, god is not a factor because religion is only a means that misrepresents god, hence religionists themselves are atheists (literally, those who live without god).
it is like saying there exists no earth because you found out your friend who taught earth is flat is wrong; or it is like saying mathematics itself is wrong because you found out your mathematics teacher made a mistake.

Onager,
Purpose is accomplished. What was intended was to create an awareness about a forgotten truth:
Teacher may make mistake;
but that doesn't prove the subject he was trying to explain was non-existent.
Mathematics (being a branch of science) was used as a symbol of God who is source of all knowledge.
I am also taking leave from this thread.

You ignored what I wrote about environmental effect on fishes which is all set to disprove natural selection! (https://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/08/climate-change-study-ocean-fish-size/)
Global warming is sounding a death knell on the theory of evolution—no natural selection is going to happen in the case of fishes in the sea. Fish won’t be able to get enough oxygen to grow if ocean waters keep heating up. Fish, as cold-blooded animals, cannot regulate their own body temperatures. When ocean waters become warmer, a fish’s metabolism accelerates, and it needs more oxygen to sustain its body functions. Fish breathe through gills, organs that extract dissolved oxygen from the water and excrete carbon dioxide.
Interestingly, when the proofs arrive they come with a bang. Evolution started with an explosion (big bang) which resulted in every exploding pieces round and spinning which ultimately created all varieties of life forms. Yet when armed forces and terrorists use explosion it never results in any pieces round and spinning, and they only destroy lives and properties.

If Natural Selection is the driving force, why it doesn’t work with those with black skin who really want to have white skin? How long would it take for evolution from black skin to white skin? Thousands of years? Or rather tens thousands of years?
If natural selection is a natural process that results in the survival and reproductive success of individuals or groups best adjusted to their environment and that leads to the perpetuation of genetic qualities best suited to that particular environment, why then the alarm bell against fishes in the sea which the scientists say would not survive the climate change?

Cofty,
The way you use the word “ignorance” against me reminds me of Catholics who say the rosary “Hail Mary full of grace, hail Mary full of grace … thinking that repeating it for 53 times would work in favor of them. Just because you know the meaning of the word “ignorance” you think you can use against all those who disagree with you which shows how weak your position is. I encourage you to do the same even with more force.

notsurewheretogo, I would also add the following:
It is irony that many approach evolution as a fact. Yet the leading evolutionists like Sir Julian Huxley called evolution a "religion without revelation" and wrote a book with that title (2nd edition, 1957). In a later book, he wrote: “Evolution . . . is the most powerful and the most comprehensive idea that has ever arisen on earth. (Essays of a Humanist, Julian Huxley, New York: Harper and Row, 1964, p. 125) Later in the book he argued passionately that we must change "our pattern of religious thought from a God-centered to an evolution-centered pattern."(p. 222) Then he went on to say that: "The God hypothesis . . . is becoming an intellectual and moral burden on our thought." Therefore, he concluded that "we must construct something to take its place."
Thus top guns of evolutionists know that they are trying to replace religion with religion of evolution which was mistaken as science by ordinary people.

notsurewheretogo asking me to "read book on evolution."
Even in a grandmother’s story, we expect a flow. But if evolution theory is true, there should not be gaps where there should be transitions. Yet there are gaps all along. Hence evolutionists moved to promoting DNA and other genetic evidence as proof of evolution. However, this is often inconsistent with, not only the fossil record, but also with the comparative morphology of the creatures: “The elephant shrew, consigned by traditional analysis to the order insectivores . . . is in fact more closely related to . . . the true elephant. Cows are more closely related to dolphins than they are to horses. The duckbilled platypus . . . is on equal evolutionary footing with . . . kangaroos and koalas….. (lists go on and on…. "Family Feud," Roger Lewin, New Scientist (vol. 157, January 24, 1998), p. 39.

Finding fault with analogy is a convenient way of diverting the subject. That is an indirect way of agreeing to the spirit of OP. You are welcome.

Anything can be right to anybody, and anybody can have the audacity to call another ignorant because they do not believe in evolution theory. To see systems in the real world tending to go "downhill, you don’t have to go up to sun’s continuously adding energy. Look at your own body—soon it would also start going downhill. Politics, religion, hospitals—all started for the welfare of others only to become synonym of greed later. Entropy rules everywhere! And you are not aware of that. That’s ok
