10 Reasons Not to Believe in Evolution

To continue the list of "Top 10's," here's 10 reasons you should not believe in evolution. Enjoy!!

1. The Ever-Missing Link--Whether Lucy, Java Man, Piltdown Man, or whatever other "missing link" that have been found, there has never been found a cross-species evolutionary example.

2. The Missing Links--Even if the "missing link" is found, it won't really solve the overall problem--the fact that there should be billions of "missing links" that would show the evolution from Goo through the Zoo to You.

3. The Ever-Changing Age of the Timeline--Dinosaurs lived 2.4 billion years ago. Or was it 2.4 million years ago? I can't keep it straight because it is always changing. If Christians tried to pull the same timeline tricks evolutionists play with the age of the earth with the Gospel, no one would believe it for one minute.

4. Fossil evidence--Fossils give evidence for the fact that the species we have are all based on the Biblical "kinds," not on evolutionary shape-changing.

5. Carbon Dating--Carbon Dating, when done without a presupposition that we know how the universe has always been (despite evidence to the contrary...), does not lead one to conclude that the earth is millions of years old.

6. The need to explain absolutely everything--if there was nothing, how did something ever occur? Things do not spontaneously explode and form organization, ala the second law of thermodynamics.

7. Richard Dawkins--The fact that one of the leading evolutionists shows such a lack of knowledge of how to defend his position against those who contradict should speak volumes to the nature of the arguments themselves.

8. DNA--the complexity of even one strand of DNA leaves one to assume that it would have taken a "whole lot of luck" in the evolutionary process to end up with such a complex structure.

9. Devolution--The passage of information from one generation to another has never, ever, ever resulted in a gaining of information in the DNA structure. It has instead proved a devolution--a loss of information from generation to generation.

10. The Bible--God says He created the earth in 6 24 hour days. In fact, according to the structures of the Hebrew language, God could not have made more explicit the timeline of creation in Genesis 1. While this will not satisfy atheists (because nothing really will...), God said it, and when the Infinitely Omnipotent and Wise God says He did something, we should trust that He knew what He was saying when He did.

WOW!!! Now I'll have a different view point on the topic.
