not believing in evolution *is* a denial of science and a huge red flag. a refusal to believe things that have been proven is dangerous and not a trait I want someone in my life to have

Has the theory of evolution been proven?

Anonymous #9 8w

literally yes it has by countless medical journals and institutions in the sciences

Could you name a few so I can look it up

How have they been proven? The same way you believe what scientist tell is just like believing the bible. You didn’t do the research yourself there for it’s all based on belief.

There are dozens of journals with evidence of evolution. Our bodies are evidence. Our tail bones from when we used to have tails. Wisdom teeth that dont fit in our mouth. Even our body hair is here because of evolution

Believing in science, which can be proven, is not like believing in the Bible, which is not

But once again how do YOU specifically know this research is true

Because I can read the scientific journals with all of the research of how they came to that conclusion, why they did, and what it means going forward

Because its been proven over and over. Im a stem major too. I HAVE studied this.

Im a stem major too but science is flawed with probability. There are too many unanswered question that we must rely on belief for. We never lived in past time so we can never truly know. We just hope the science WE CREATED tells us we’re right.

But that doesn’t mean that science has no proof, like the Bible does. Science is flawed but that doesn’t mean we forget it exists. We understand there is a possibility to be proven wrong in the future but, until that day we believe in the science we can currently prove

Youre right. And science CAN be wrong. But evolution has been proven with so many different pieces if evidence its insane to not believe it

I’m curious what the person believed instead of evolution tbh st made you run from them

I get that. I’m just saying it’s not fait to blame someone for not believing in this sort of science when it goes against a cord belief of their religion. They’re raise from the ground up to believe this and they know nothing differently. Im not saying there is a right or wrong here cause i won’t push beliefs. But truthfully no one side is 100% right

The fact that your comment got downvoted just shows how biased and stiff necked some people are. The unwillingness to even try and consider the other side of the argument is truly incredible

I just dont believe that just because the Bible says something is true, that it's true

You just don’t believe but won’t do research is the same as the person who won’t even consider looking into evolution.

Ok well can you give me sources with solid proof?

Anonymous #5 8w

I’m asking you for sources because you’re the one sold on evolution

Well ok. I believe that religion and evolution can exist together. I really do. I just could never date someone who doesn't believe the SCIENCE part

I 100% respect that. I just hope you keep an open mind if someone chooses not to believe science because it goes against their religion. Those two things normally don’t mix

Do you not know that evolution and so many scientific theorys were made by Christians. It most certainly can be both believed

Although there are many events in the Bible that have historical and archaeological evidence to be fair. I’m saying this as a science major

None of the fantasy elements do, though. Of course a lot of people are going to write about places they know and have heard of when trying to make the real world seem magical.

Yeah, I agree but like I’m talking more about the Bible not being proof of a “god” in that way. I believe it lining up with history is mostly because it was written by humans in that age in that area

Literally YES! That’s like 9th grade science class homie! Read a book for God’s sake!

I don’t think that’s fair either though. If someone came up to me and told me the earth was flat because “god said so” I am going to say that’s wrong because it is. Plenty of people believe in both and denying science because it contradicts religion is only holding us back from true progress. While I don’t think it’s fair to be mocking and rude, pointing out they are, in fact, proven to be wrong isn’t evil. I wouldn’t associate with someone who doesn’t believe in science because of religion,but-

I do have religious friends who do believe in science. I just don’t think the solution here is to allow religious people to deny science in a public sphere

No, that comes from decency and science, and lack of decency compounded with misinformation…

Anonymous #10 8w

^^this! Both can coexist together but denying science as a whole because your religion says so is just setting us up for failure.

Anonymous #10 8w

Exactly! Science is not a refusal of religion. In fact, theology says that revelations works over long time. Scientific knowledge and discovery is literally just God allowing humanity to understand His creation little by little.

Science can be flawed yes, but we have countless evidence supporting the idea of evolution…. Several solid proofs of evolution including genetic sequences tracing back millions of years…

What kind of stem are you in…cause you clearly haven’t seen the use of the scientific method and hypothesis to prove or disprove a theory
