Chapter 1. 3
Intelligent Design
Life
either resulted from Evolution or from Intelligent Design;
or
perhaps the intelligent designer is a cosmic prankster
who
designed everything to make it look as though it had evolved. (Jerry Coyne)
Origin
of Evolution
You can hardly speak of Intelligent Design or Creationism without
discussing Evolution. We find the first
idea of EVOLUTION written in the scriptures of Genesis, the
very first book of the Bible where Satan speaks to Eve in the Garden of Eden
and he questions what God had told her concerning eating the forbidden fruit
and dying.
The
First words out of his
mouth was to cause Eve to QUESTION God’s word; to DOUBT.
The
Second thing he said was
that she would not die; he called God a liar.
The
Third thing he told her
was that if she ate the forbidden fruit that she would EVOLVE
and become as the gods. HE LIED and even today
some religious denominations have imbedded in their official doctrine that you
too can become a god.[1]
Catholic
doctrine teaches that
someday you get to be god. Look it up;
it’s there.
New
Age Movement teaches the
very same thing; “you too can become a
god.
Mormon
doctrine teaches that you
can evolve into a god and if you are a good Mormon wife, you get to be
eternally pregnant in heaven having spiritual babies.
Intelligent
Design vs; Creationism
Intelligent design
avoids identifying or naming the intelligent
designer. It merely states that one or
more designers must exist.
Creationism says not only was Jehovah God the
designer[2], but that His Son Jesus
Christ was present at the creation and was the one who did the creating[3].
World View - There Are Two World Views
Humanist World View:
Evolution is taught as if it was a TRUE Fact. The Big Bang Theory. Man is God.
This is the belief that life came from the effects of rain water on a
rock. Evolution is actually a belief
system; it’s a Religion; you have to believe it by Faith because there is no proof.
Creationist
World View is the belief that the
heavens and the earth and all of life came from the effects that were brought
about by Intelligent Design[4].
God is the Creator of the world and it
was all completed at the same time; it did not evolve. Creationism is based on
Bible Truths. It is a Religion; you must
believe in by Faith.
Both views require FAITH in order to believe.
Depending on your World View, one guy will
look at the Grand Canyon and say; look what has taken place due to erosion over
millions and millions of years; and another guy will say; look what happened
when we had the great flood of Noah[5].
QUESTION; Did the erosion take place with a little
water over a long period of time, or a lot of water in a short period of time?
There will be people that doubt Intelligent
Design or Creationism with the World View that
everything has clearly been as it always was[6].
Scripture calls them scoffers that are
willingly ignorant[7].
There will be a BIG
BANG at the return of Christ and it’s
not just a theory, it’s a fact[8].
Evolution
Nothing and Nothing
bumped into each other and BAM they produced something.
Spontaneous
Generation: We are taught that some 4 billion years ago,
over time NON-LIVING material became alive and these self-replicating
cells emerged from an organic soup. This
happy combination of chemicals got struck by lighting and began to evolve until
it became a man then it all happened all over again and it produced a woman,
and somehow the two of them found each other in the millions of miles of pond
scum and then had babies.
Evolution never happened in a laboratory on in nature or in a fossil
record; it only happens in your imagination. There has been no proof submitted that has not
been refuted because of conflicting findings and variables; much written has
been proven to be just outright exaggerations of the mind.
People want to believe in evolution
because they don’t want to believe in God. Monkeys and Man are similar and point to a
Common Designer not a Common Ancestor.
The
Missing Link; no creature
that has ever existed, has ever been found, that linked the ape to man; not
one, None, Zero, Zip, Nada. Varieties of
species is not evolution; they are
just different kinds of the SAME thing. Mutations
do not produce anything new; just more or less than what you already have. You might get a turtle with two heads, but
not one with wings.
Survival
of the fittest does not
produce or change life in any way, it just preserves the life of those in a
certain environment. Natural selection does not produce anything new or change it in anyway,
it just preserves what is already there. If it starts out as a dog, it stays
according to its kind; a dog.
Every living thing brings forth after its own kind.[9]
Let’s
reason together
If you have a COMPUTER would you think it came from an explosion
that occurred in a parts factory in China, or was it creatively designed by
someone? If you found a WATCH laying on the street, would you think it
is there because over time all the gears and parts evolved into a specific
order; or would you think someone created it.
A CLOCK; how many parts do
you need in a clock to make it run? Can
you have just 10% and make it run? How
about when it evolves to 90% of the parts? No, you need all of them to make it run or
it’s not a clock; it cannot evolve.
A MOUSETRAP consists of several interacting pieces; the base, the
catch, the spring and the hammer; all of which must be in place for the
mousetrap to work, anything less and it’s not a mousetrap.
IRREDUCIBLE
COMPLEXITY is a single system which is
composed of several well-matched interacting parts that contribute to the basic
function, wherein the removal of any one of the parts causes the system to
effectively cease functioning.[10]
The necessary parts of a system have always
been necessary and therefore
could not have been added sequentially. Evolution often proceeds by altering
pre-existing parts or by removing them from a system, rather than by adding them.
Are the faces of the Presidents on Mount Rushmore caused by erosion and
evolution or of creative design? Creative Design of course. MAN is a thousand times more complex than that
of any rock. Why would you reject Intelligent
Design and believe that man is
the product of the Evolution of pond scum that accumulated from
rain water that fell on a rock?
Creationism
When was the Beginning? The
Bible say the beginning was when God created the man and the woman[11]
and if you add up the ages in the genealogy listed in the scriptures you can
see clearly that the earth was created approximately 6,000 years ago, not
billions and billions of years ago. This
same time line shows that 4,400 years ago there was a big flood that destroyed
the whole world and 2,000 years ago Christ came into the world.
Catastrophism is the belief that in the beginning the
world was made perfect. Then the earth
became entirely covered by water. The Assyrians, Babylonians, Samarians, and Greeks
all documented and taught that there was a GREAT
FLOOD that covered the earth. This was hundreds of years before the time of
Jesus and the Christian era. None of them knew that the other was documenting
this great calamity that would later be documented in our Bible.
In the beginning people lived
hundreds of years.[12]
Adam lived so long that he knew Noah’s daddy.
After the flood Noah’s son
Shem lived long enough that he could have known Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. So you can see how the information in our
Bible could have been passed down so accurately.
How long ago
Six Days according to the Bible, the Heavens, Earth and everything in
it was made in six days; that would be about 6,000 years ago now.[13]
Six
Thousand years; Scripture says that a day is like a thousand years to the
Lord and a thousand years is like a day[14],
so that would make the six day creation occur over a period of 6000 years plus
it’s been 6,000 years; so the earth may
be 12,000 years old.
Circular References:
Much of the dating refers to the “Geologic Column” where things are found in a
certain order in the earth layers which then refers back to a the dating
process that refers back to the Geologic Column. Back and forth; dependent on each other for
proof; creating a circular reference. (NOTE: The Geologic Column only
exist in test books; nowhere else)
The GAP THEORY:
If you can accept that there was a flood that occurred before Noah and there
was life on earth before the creation story found in Genesis, then Earth could
be many more thousands of years old. It is called LUCIFER’S FLOOD; THE FLOOD BEFORE NOAH. [15] Embracing
the Gap Theory does not affect or change the position of the
creationist who embraces Intelligent Design,
however it may help the evolutionist theory somewhat.
Interestingly
“Carbon Dating”,
“Uranium 235”,
“Radioisotopes”
and “Cobalt 60”
dating have much documentation showing that there are many flaws and variables
“within the same measurement taken” which most often renders their results
meaningless. There is an instance where
a fish that had just died was carbon dated to be 4,000 years old. A tree fossil was found extending the entire
length of the “Geologic Column” and the roots of the tree were dated millions
of years older that the branches at the top of the tree.
Origin
of the Species
There has not been
anything that has
happened in mankind that destroys the faith in God as has the theory of
evolution, therefore it must not go un-challenged.
The Evolutionist believe that
the Bat, the horse, the dog and man all have the same bony structure of the
forearm, therefore it is proof that they had a common ancestor.
The Creationist believe that they all
just had a common
architect.
It has NEVER been demonstrated that life
can be spontaneously brought into existence…
It has never happened; not once, let alone repeated. NOT
ONCE.
Theory is speculations; educated guess works. We believe; We think; It is assumed. Evolution
takes place only in the imagination, it’s NOT
PROVEN although it is accepted as if it is pure
science.
Science come from the word “skio” which means; “that about which we
know”; “no question”, “something that which we can prove and re-prove”.
Time does not bring order, but brings
disorder; time brings decay. There is a downward progression, not upward. The
world is spinning slower every year; not faster.
Charles Darwin ADMITS
“There are two to three million species on earth sufficient for observation;
but it must be said today that in spite of all the evidence by trained
observers, not one change of species from one to another has ever been
recorded”. It takes less faith to believe
in the Creation Model or Intelligent
Design than it does the Evolution
Model proclaiming that we came from rainwater on
a rock that made pond scum that lightning struck which evolved into boys and
girls.
Science means knowledge (observation
or experimentation) Knowing and Believing are two different things. Just because the majority of smart people BELIEVE IT does not make it true. You might recall that the vast majority once
believed that the earth was flat; not round.
There have been no observations or experimentation that prove that the
earth is billions and billions of years old.
The age of the earth is not something that you can know, it’s something
that you must believe by FAITH; not by science.
Subterfuge
If we can take God out of the
picture and pre-suppose that man is just a chance product of evolution, then
life has very little value. A living
being is nothing but pond scum; even the Bible says that we are made from dirt[16].
Satan’s
desire is to irradiate man from the face of the earth because he is made in the
image of God. Over a quarter of the
population has now been murdered through abortions.
Pro-Choice:
Doesn’t a woman have rights
over her own body? Can she not choose to
abort a baby while it’s still in the womb if she wants to? Why is Pro-Choice limited to just while the
child is still in the womb? Why not
extend it till the child reaches the terrible two’s or how about murder him when he reaches those hard teenage years that drives
you so crazy? Why do we call it
Pro-Choice; why don’t we call it PRO-DEATH, that’s what it is. Satan is the author of death and desires that
nobody makes it out of here alive.[17]
Ponder
that statement.
Fundamental Answers to Life - Evolutionist
1)
Who am I am; what am I worth? Evolution says you are not worth much, just
some protoplasm that washed up on the beach.
2)
Where did I come from? We
came from a cosmic burp some 4.5 billion years ago.
3)
Why am I here; what is the purpose in life?
There is no purpose to life, so if it
feels good; go ahead and do it.
4)
Where am I going when I die? You are going to the grave and get recycled
into a worm or a plant.
The
Take Away
If the Evolution story is true,
then there is no creator and there is no purpose to life. There is no right and wrong. Man is not a fallen creature therefore he does
not need a Savior[18]. There is no afterlife.
If the Creation story is true,
there is a creator and there is a purpose to life. There is right and wrong. Man is a fallen creature that needs a Savior[19].
There is an afterlife for everyone SOMEWHERE.
God says; Woe to them
that lead his children astray; those that teach evolution[20].
