The Scientific Impossibility Of Evolution
What is it about a California-based Christian evangelist from New Zealand that makes him irresistible to even the most sophisticated secularist?
“You sir, are a fool who could not lie straight in bed. It is beneath me to even address you,” wrote an online respondent to Ray Comfort’s weblog Friday, “but I was passing by and saw this tripe, I could not constrain myself.”
“Some recent remarks of evolutionists show that they think this unreasonable. This situation, where scientific men rally to the defense of a doctrine they are unable to define scientifically, much less demonstrate with scientific rigor, attempting to maintain its credit with the public by the suppression of criticism and the elimination of difficulties, is abnormal and unwise in science.”
“All you have to do,” Comfort told WND, “is push them into a corner and say, ‘So, you’re an atheist?’ ‘Yep.’ ‘So you believe that nothing created everything, a scientific impossibility?’ And they’ll say, ‘Well, no.’ ‘So you believe something created everything?’ And they say, ‘Well, yeah. Something did, obviously.’ ‘So you’re not an atheist?’ ‘OK, I’m not an atheist.’
”’This something you believe created everything,” Comfort continued, “do you think it was intelligent? I mean, could you create a bird or a flower or a tree or a blade of grass from nothing?’ And they’ll say, ‘No, I can’t do that.’ ‘Well, is this something you believe created everything intelligent?’ And they’ll say, ‘Obviously.’ And I’ll say, ‘Congratulations, you’ve just become an anti-science, knuckle-dragger in the eyes of our learning institutions, because you believe in intelligent design.’
Dawkins, in his 2004 book “The Ancestor’s Tale” wrote, “The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved literally out of nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.”
Among others, Comfort cites physicist Robert A.J. Matthews of Ashton University in England, who wrote, “It is now becoming clear that everything can – and probably did – come from nothing.”
American physicist Paul Davies of Arizona State University wrote, “Even if we don’t have a precise idea of exactly what took place at the beginning, we can at least see that the origin of the universe from nothing need not be unlawful or unnatural or unscientific.”
”The whole thought that nothing created everything is an intellectual embarrassment for atheists,” Comfort told WND.
He writes in his book: “There’s no way to say it kindly, but such thoughts show that the atheist doesn’t think, and proves the Bible right when it says that the fool has said in his heart that there is no God.
”All you have to do is present unbiased facts about the unscientific and unthinking nature of atheistic evolution, and then watch people change their minds.”
Creation proves there’s a creator,” Comfort argues. “And once you’ve established that, the fact is that every single human being is without excuse.”
He contends that while many atheists and agnostics assert religious believers abandon science and reason, defenders of Darwinian evolutionary theory actually must have a “childlike faith” to accept its tenets.
Comfort said “time is the god of evolutionists,” who believe that with enough time anything can happen. “Time performs miracles. Time is the creator,” he said.
“You can say to them, ‘OK, there’s nothing in your garage, could you believe in 10,000 years a Mercedes would evolve out of nothing? You’d say, No, that’s ridiculous.’ ‘So, what about 100,000 years?’ ‘No, that’s stupid.’ But if you start talking billions of years, they’ll suddenly go glaze-eyed and, ‘Yeah, I could believe that, a Mercedes could evolve out of nothing over billions of year.’ So time is their miracle worker.”
It is amazing that Comfort gives out copies of Darwin’s “Origin of Species” free at colleges with his own forward just to open the debate, to encourage others to at least question the asinine theory of evolution and consider alternative explanations, which is the foundation of all good science and he meets with hostility by academics; and at the same time he sees the eyes of atheistic, evolutionary minded people open in amazement that they had never considered the implications of evolutionary theory, how it impossible it is to believe.
Atheist evolutionists so called sceintifically minded people don’t even agree with their chief apostle Darwin that said; “Charles Darwin, in his own Introduction in 1859, said, ‘A fair result can be obtained only by fully stating and balancing the facts and arguments on both sides of each question.’” Well not to atheists and evolutionists, they demand no other possible explanations even be considered or discussed in academic circles.
What is the danger of such closed minded promotion of such an insane theory as evolution? “So many young people are being convinced that atheism is right, that evolution is right, there’s no god, there are no moral absolutes,” he said. “Who cares if you marry a dog? What’s the big deal? And that’s what atheism believes, too. It’s very sad.”
