Bible Question:
Evolution is a very difficult topic to debate. It seems it always comes down to pro and anti advocates cutting and pasting web site material, ad hominems, and character assasination. Is there any good in-depth technical scientific material refuting natural selection? The traditional "6000 years plus a flood" argument is ineffectual. Is there good material debunking punctuated equilibrium, etc? Thanks. |
Bible Answer: Vanagon: While there is indeed good information refuting neo-Darwinism, it is pretty much beyond the scope of this forum. Email me off-list (see my profile) and I will be happy to discuss these issues with you. Incidentally, natural selection ("survival of the fittest") is both observable in nature and not contrary to the Scriptures. One can very reasonably say that stronger animals survive in situations where weaker animals do not, without jumping to the outlandish conclusion that human beings came into existence by such a process. --Joe! |
