To Believe in Evolution One Must Deny the Fall
To believe in evolution is to deny a universal paradise before Adam, because evolution necessarily implies that before Adam there was struggle, cruelty and brutality, animals eating animals, and death. Is the world going to be restored to that? If you believe in evolution, you must deny a universal paradise before Adam (because you believe that there was death and struggle millions of years before Adam), and also at the end of time (because the Bible teaches the world will be restored to what it used to be). Thus, evolution not only strikes at the heart and the foundation, but at the home of Christianity as well. We all should be out there doing something about it. Many of us have been hoodwinked into thinking that evolution has to do with science and that you need to be a scientist to do anything to combat it. But evolution is only a belief system, and you do not need to be a scientist to combat that.

To believe in evolution is also to deny the restoration of all things... because there would be nothing to restore. If it's been all blood, guts, and gore since the get-go, then why would we think it would be any other way eternally?
Honestly, to deny creation and the fall of man is to undo the entire Bible.

Lead us, Evolution, lead us
Up the future’s endless stair;
Chop us, change us, prod us, weed us.
For stagnation is despair:
Groping, guessing, yet progressing,
Lead us nobody knows where.
Wrong or justice in the present,
Joy or sorrow, what are they
While there’s always jam to-morrow,
While we tread the onward way?
Never knowing where we’re going,
We can never go astray.
To whatever variation
Our posterity may turn
Hairy, squashy, or crustacean,
Bulbous-eyed or square of stern,
Tusked or toothless, mild or ruthless,
Towards that unknown god we yearn.
Ask not if it’s god or devil,
Brethren, lest your words imply
Static norms of good and evil
(As in Plato) throned on high;
Such scholastic, inelastic,
Abstract yardsticks we deny.
Far too long have sages vainly
Glossed great Nature’s simple text;
He who runs can read it plainly,
‘Goodness, what comes next.’
By evolving, Life is solving
All the questions we perplexed.
On then! Value means survival-
Value. If our progeny
Spreads and spawns and licks each rival,
That will prove its deity
(Far from pleasant, by our present
Standards, though it well may be).
C.S. Lewis' Evolutionary Hymn
Lewis was a theistic evolutionist.
my wife is a basic research biochemist and a faculty member at an R-1 university. She performs all her research using controlled experiments. But even experiments under controlled conditions don't usually involve the direct observation of the proposed process. For example, she hypothesizes chemical process f(x). If that hypothesis is correct, then if you mix the compounds A and B that should result in the production Z. Her experiment results in just that. But she is not actually observing the hypothesized process f(x) itself in the manner of viewing an atomic video camera in real time but rather observes the result of that process. (Which supports the hypothesis that the process works as described in the hypothesis f(x).) Evolution makes predictions about what you should observe across a wide area of science: morphology, biogeography, biochemistry, field observations, lab experiments, embryology, molecular biology, DNA, and, of course, the fossil record. When you collect and analyze those observations they uniformly and repeatedly support the hypothesis and have so for many decades.
Phil,
No, there is absolutely NOTHING which supports any hypothesis of evolutionism. All evolutionists have are suppositions followed by assertions with no facts at all.
Evolution is not science, it it a philosophy.
Keep asserting your suppositions -- they will never come true.
