Monkeys become men!


This just proves to me how poorly you understand evolution.

Monkeys to men is a whole lot easier to believe in than it is for some random ball of matter that’s always existed and somehow spontaneously blew up at some point in time, and eventually led to an intelligent life form called “man” who lives on a planet at just the perfect distance from a ball of fire we call the sun so as to not only sustain life, but make everything work in perfect order so that it sustains every other life form on the planet that also came about from this chance happening.

It’s absurdly ridiculous for that same man who now builds space craft to explore space to then look at all the evidence around him and say there is no God, and it’s all a mere coincidence and chance happening.


I don’t think anyone could actually have that kind of faith, but I suppose he can embrace it to deceive himself with in order to not acknowledge God, but then that also points to man’s rebellion to God and the truth of the scriptures therein.
