But see the point is that the mainstream Darwinian view of evolution says that life changes on accident,
Not quite, but close enough for this post, I guess.
but how can you explain this when you point out the nylon eating bacteria? A new niche opened up for an organizm to fill, so it was filled by a bacteria whom never existed before.
Again, not quite. I don't know the exact lineage, but there would have been bacteria that ate other types of cloth, probably wool or cotton. The fact that nylon is synthetic doesn't mean it would take more than a single mutation to allow it to eat nylon.
This would lead me to believe that it purposefully happened because there was a reason to have happened.
There's a reason for a lot of things to happen which haven't. Just because you can conceive of a reason doesn't mean that was actually how or why it happened in reality.
For instance, what reason would this species have come into being, obviously they had enough food to survive as they were so why the new diet?
Well, maybe there wasn't a lot of food where they were. Imagine if we have a cotton eating macteria. It's happily munching on your underwear, when you decide to wear that particulr pair of underwear. You pick it up, and a couple bacteria fall off onto the bra sitting next to your underwear pile. There's no longer a lot of cotton, but luckily, one of the bacteria had the mutation to allow it to digest nylon, and as the rest of the bacteria die, it happily munches on, dividing and creating a new lineage of nylon eating bacteria.
Another reason is even more likely. A lot of bacteria are happily munching on cotton, and none are munching on the nylon near by. One bacterium gets the ability to eat nylon, and finds, "Hey, I have no competition here! I can eat all I want with no effort!" Again, it starts happily munching nylon where it doesn't have to compete, and starts dividing. Eventually, the nylon is just as congested as the cotton, but the two lines of bacteria are no longer the same.
Because it could? Maybe it was because for eveything on earth, nothing is ever wasted, even excriment has its role in life. And every niche gets filled appearently some very quickly as these bacteria have shown.
Correct, but that's a direct consequence of evolution. If an evolution allows an individual to access a resource that nothing else is using, then it has no competition and will live a long time, mating and passing on it's genes as it does, letting more animals use this untapped resource. Eventually, the new type and the old will develop more mutations, further dirving them apart until they can no longer interbreed, and viola, we have a new species.
BTW I did not join this forum to ridicule others for their beliefs or be ridiculed, I am here to learn with an open mind. I personally believe in God, but I do not expect everyone else to.
Welcome to the forum. We try not to ridicule people here, in fact, it's against the forum rules, but we won't hand-hold either. If someone's
position is ridiculous, there are a lot of very smart people on here who will tear it apart. Quite often, this can seem rude or insensitive to the person who's position is getting ripped apart, but it's not meant personally...usually.
