I'm new here. For the past month or so I've just been reading and not posting.
When I first got here I though it that both sides of this issue would be on an even deadlock, but to my surprise it isn't like that. Evolutionist seem to have the upper hand here.
Every time an issue is presented to creationist, they respond well, at the beginning. However, when evolutionist start discussing the issue with a lot of detail, creationist back off. Maybe they don't all the facts, or maybe, and this I think is the case, there is little or no facts to discuss. However when creationist present a piece of evidence that helps their cause, there's always like 3 or 4 EVOs countering with very good points. Not just at the beginning, but throughout the entire post.
In conclusion, I think creationist keep arguing this issue to prove to themselves that they haven't wasted the vast majority of their life believing in something that is not real. The issue IMHO has already been won by the evolution side. Creationist can keep on arguing, but they're just grabbing straws.
Darwin's theory has helped us so much. Especially in medical science. I don't where we, as a human race, would be if the theory of natural selection hadn't been applied to medicine.
But I think this theory can help us even more. If everybody believed in it, it would certainly change most people's perspective of themselves in this world. I'm sure most would come to the conclusion that I have: We belong to this world, this world does not belong to us like religion would have you belive. Maybe if most people felt like this, we wouldn't have all the environmental problems we have now. The U.S. certainly wouldn't have any problems with the middle east since religion would be irrelevant.
