Evolution Quiz for those who accept evolution?

Aww (((MortalGuardian))) I don't think you're stupid. I think you're quite intelligent. Unfortunately the majority of humans are incapable of holding an opinion without believing that everyone who holds a dissenting opinion is either stupid or evil.

(cf. "Anyone under thirty and not a liberal has no heart; anyone over thirty and not a conservative has no brain.") And once they've met a few people who confirm their bias ("If we came from monkeys then why are there still monkeys?"), this opinion becomes set in stone and nothing will shake it. Confirmation bias becomes the name of the game, and no amount of evidence will sway their thoughts.

Now, most of the arguments against evolution are patently ridiculous. They have a decidedly religious slant, and the people who come up with them use them to justify their beliefs, rather than as a logical train of thought that actually leads to their conclusions. Their logic goes like, "Evolution disagrees with the Bible, therefore it must be false, therefore I'll try to find flaws in it."

Only the "flaws" they find have often been adequately explained. Then you get another person coming along, going, " you've got a flaw in your theory." And everyone just assumes that it's more of the same, and disregards it--never bothering to check and learn that the person talking is a former atheist who converted to Christianity based on flaws he himself found in the theory of evolution.

Basically, it boils down to the fact that people are stupid. They project their stupidity onto everyone else while denying it in themselves. This can get extremely frustrating to those of us who do have a modicum of common sense and two neurons to rub together.

I guess the only solution is for us to stick together and ignore the peons who have no idea what they're talking about.

Because we have not yet come to the point of knowledge where both views will meet, but Quantum Scientists are working on it. It would be nice for those who supposedly believe in the Bible would not only read the words of the scripture, but delve and ponder the meanings. Asking questions like why are there two versions of the same creation story.

Should they not compare that with science? It is obvious that the second creation story differs from the first and how the second explains earth's creation and not the Universe's? The Bible does not conflict with Science, but the human understanding of what is written does.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
