But let's not go down this road, as I've never seen a debate of this nature do any good for anyone on either side. Suffice it to say that there is more than one plausible side to the issue. > > The Big Bang theory has been disproved, evolution has been disproved, they are both THEORIES anyway, and yet schools continue to teach them as fact. The only teacher I know of who didn't teach them as fact kept saying "Now, this is only a theory." Actually, Darwin himself said that evolution would be disproven if you could find one thing that could not have evolved naturally. Let me give you some examples: blood clotting (it either has 23 or 32 steps, I can't remember which). Complex eyes. Human intelligence. This last one, expecially. We couldn't have got brains and thought like this without being created like it. > > -Morris Cecil "OK, maybe I don't have as much intelligence as SOME people, but I most certainly did not evolve from an ape" Glalet, Tue 20 Jul A.D. 1999
C.S. Lewis's book "Miracles" has a good explanation of how evolution just doesn't work in, like chapter 4 or so, based on human intelligence. and, right, there's no way such complex organs as the heart for example could evolve from 2-3-4 chambered. there would have to be some point where it just didn't work, at some point during the evolution, so everything would die.
