On Creationism and Evolution.

[The Repentant Schutzstaffel]

I just post for the lols

LOLs is best reason. Work on humor, comrade.

You Soviet...?

[Lost heros]

Evolution violates the second law of thermodynamics.

I should include this in my stand up set.

Everybody's Russian.

Nah, it's worse. I'm Californian.

god created us through evolution and the big bang

Evolution is correct. There is proof to actually back it up.

[Lady Scylla]

Evolution is a fact. Creationism is a myth trying to explain the facts.

if it was a fact it wouldnt be called a theory

Sorry to burst your bubble.

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation.

[The Imperium Empires]

Let's be serious there is no proof that creationism is correct. Unlike evolution that actully has proof. I'd like to see someone give me a reason why creationism is true and not because a book said.

We've all taken turns bursting his bubble...

I'm gonna call rape culture on it, honestly.

The fact is that evolution happened and continues to happen.

The theory is about exactly how it happens.

We haven't seen a species tranform to another. What I see is that moths turned black in the Industrial Revolution and living things adapt to their enviroment, but we haven't watched anything turn to another species.

Just because you haven't seen something, doesn't mean it isn't there.

See? It's annoying, isn't it?

It's almost as if evolution takes *gasp* time!

[Quokkastan]

Evolution violates the second law of thermodynamics.

The Second Law indicates that in a closed system, energy will eventually reach equilibrium. Basically this is why your microwaved steak will have really hot and really cold bits if you try and take it out and eat it right away, but will be evenly cooked if you let it sit for a while.

This doesn't really have much to do with evolution on any level, but the main reason your argument fails is that Earth is not a closed system. There is a giant bright circle in the sky that occasionally warms part of it up.

That also wobbles back and forth, pulling us and everything else in the solar system along the galactic plane, with us on a planet that also wobbles and changes. Yeah.

It's thoughts like this that really makes two things that should be compatible anathema to each other.

Or, you know... The Creationism that came before a secular belief in evolution.

Yes, we actually have witnessed speciation events. Moths turning black is a single example, and not a great one.

They already are anathema.

[Noraika]

Overall, my general view on the universe, and how it came about, in terms of both creationism, evolution, or otherwise, can be summed up by the quote below, by a youtuber named Logicked:

“I realize that I don’t even know enough about it to really firmly accept it or reject it. I’m also really not that personally invested in the answer. I’m perfectly happy to say ‘I don’t know’. Most days I’m perfectly happy to say ‘I don’t care’. And I’ll leave it to the people with the properly deep knowledge of this stuff to figure it out as best they can.” – Logicked

No idea what you are referring to. Are you referring to pre-rennassaince researchers?

Sorry wasn't trying to offend you.

You weren't, it's more like dismay that people consider science and religion incompatible. I'm one of those "crazy religiousies" who thinks science is God's way of entertaining us.

That's only a modern phenomena.

I'm talking about Medieval researchers, actually.

From the 1960's.
