“How Do We Know Evolution is Real?” – Is Evolution Real?
A BBC article about evolution, with the title,“How Do We Know Evolution is Real?”, was published on August 3, 2015. This article is very typical of attempts to support Darwinian evolution or macroevolution. The article makes many assertions, assumptions, theoretical suggestions, etc. without proof or any documented scientific evidence.Is evolution real?
The only “example” of “Darwinian evolution” the article cites is breeding dogs to produce new, or different, breeds. It asserts that this is how macroevolution or Darwinism works. The only problem is that producing different breeds of dogs is an example of microevolution – small changes within kinds (Genesis 1:11-12; Genesis 1:21; Genesis 1:24-25), not Macro-evolution (changes from one species to another).
“All sorts of seed-bearing plants, and trees with seed-bearing fruit. Their seeds produced plants and trees of the same kind”—Genesis 1:12 NLT
“God created great sea creatures and every living thing scurries and swarms in the water, and every sort of bird–each producing offspring of the same kind”—Genesis 1:21 NLT
“God made all sorts of wild animals, livestock, and small animals, each able to produce offspring of the same kind”—Genesis 1:25 NLT
The Bible here, in the verses above, definitely supports microevolution – no problem! There are many varieties within “kinds.” There is absolutely zero evidence of any wholesale changes that Darwinists assert, i.e. dogs to horses, or larger mammals etc. Plus, such selective breeding does not occur naturally in the wild. Creatures tend to inter-breed within their “kinds,” exactly as the Bible said they would.
