God’s Argument Against Evolution
A Bible Study by Jack Kelley
(Note: Following up on the recent evolution/ creation debate, here’s something you might not have considered.) My wife has a teacup poodle. We bought her as a puppy almost 13 years ago. She wasn’t just a pound puppy but a pure bred, papers and all. Expensive, too. Breeders make a big issue about how they control the process to emphasize the desirable traits of the breed. A business client of mine happened to be buying a dog at the same time. Returning home after a trip to her city, I saw her in the airport. She was meeting the very plane I was leaving on. The puppy she had bought was arriving … from Maine. “What’s the matter,” I asked, “don’t they have any German Shepherds in Montana?” She told me that the Shepherd population in Montana had developed a tendency toward arthritis, whereas the ones from Maine didn’t have that problem. continue at: gracethrufaith.com/topical-studies/the-bibles-authority/gods-argument-against-evolution/#more-18 Fair Use For Discussion and Educational Purposes

You know what, Jim? When my daughter was in Junior Highschool, they introduced evolution and she came home an asked me about it. They had to write a paper on it regarding whether they agreed or disagreed. I thought, "Great! Here we go..". I said, "If evolution is in the least bit plausible and we evolved from apes, then why haven't apes evolved? Why are there still apes? Surely there should be none left." She went from there regarding her argument and she got an A, believe it or not.

Would that even be possible now? Certainly with some teachers, but more than likely a child would be scorned and ridiculed if they were to present that argument in a typical classroom today. Thanks for sharing that story, Shiloh.

Evolution is a strange deal. It has been disproven scientifically, statistically, logically....and yet the scientific community clings to it because it is their security blanket.

I agree with you both. And just about ALL of these professors in colleges now support evolution.

It's also a defense against having to believe that there is a Creator who is in control. What they don't understand is that either one (evolution or Christianity) requires faith - it's just whether we put our faith in God or in their own faulty reasoning and attempt to make sense of the world apart from Him.
