Yup...it's also the single most understood scientific theory. Because of the religious controversy surrounding it, it is poorly taught at the secondary level and since the vast majority of people don't study science beyond a secondary level, the most common understanding of biological evolution is that man descended from apes.

Yet ultimately a scientific theories explanatory powers are what counts and evolutionary theories are striking. Why do all organisms use an almost identical genetic code? Evolution. Why does a whale have a pelvis? Evolution. Then look at competing ideas, such as, Intelligent Design and Creationism. They have no explanatory powers, they have no usefulness and they are not falsifiable.

Yet on a humbler plane Darwin was right about the simplicity, elegance and beauty of evolution by natural selection explaining the riddle of the mutability of species. “Thus, from the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”

Well done, chap.

I should have left the bio-science stuff to you, since it is not my area of expertise...and you could blow my doors off!

You're high. You're also a liar. There is no way in hell that anyone with a brain doesn't admit that there is a God.

You can't prove God doesn't exist, and you sure as hell can't explain, logically, how unorganized matter comes together and forms intelligent life. It's the stupidest idea ever conceived.

Beyond your abilities obviously. Religion is a belief because it has zero evidence. Nothing, Zip. You are a believer an d I feel sorry for you.

Yet none of you adhering to it have yet to provide the actual picture of MY great grandfather form thousands of generations ago you claimed I evolved from. Can you? I mean THE actual picture you can prove is MY family member.

That is super stupid. yeah, long before cameras, before digital cameras, someone should have taken a picture of a relative you are supposed to have evolved from. Except, you did not evolve. Stayed in the plains and never grew.

Space and time began to exist when the universe [or multiverse, if you want to go that route] began to exist. So you’re the one who thinks I think time exists separately from it lol.

I think no such thing.

My point is that a First Cause that exists outside of the universe solves the problem of infinite regression.

Occams razor time. Making up a creator and then making up a brand spanking new place beyond anything we can see and hear, as a wild stab at trying to justify a beleif that cannot be slightly proven, it losing. What does this universe look like? Who created this place and this creature? Oh, back we go again.

Then who created this first cause outside the universe,. Nope, it solves nothing. Just relocates it.,
