Hey, creationists... We know it maybe too much to ask of you and "have faith" in your ability to think in a "natural" (shall we say "normal"?) non-theistic way, logically, scientifically and let's say in a down to earth and not in a "voodoo" like mentality of your specific tea leaves fortune of religion told to you by your families and brainwashing in church, but we hope you can read through this and crunch some numbers... OK, they've already been crunched for you... To put it the matter of Evolution to rest, below is a simple mathematical formula to express how evolution would work on the GENETIC LEVEL - this can be done easily by anyone with a spread sheet. Genes in the DNA of ANY creature (including the "proto (original) animal" responsible for inheritance of sweat glands, digestive tract, hair, eyes, ears, teeth, size and shape of sexual organs, skin color, brain size and intellect, etc. are all MUTATING AT DIFFERENT RATIOS over millions and billions of years of evolution. What kind of an animal can be the final result of 200 mln. or 3 bln years of evolution? Consider there are millions of species of animals on Earth right now and over 100 mln species are extinct according to some estimates. They all have been evolving on their own under the pressures of natural selection - genetic mutation via natural radiation, genetic combination via sexual reproduction of different genomes, kin and sexual selection, environmental factors, weather, food sources, bacteria and microbic mutations that kill off the unfit, yet cause immunity in some of the animals, competition for territory, predators, massive volcano eruptions and poisonous gasses, earthquakes, drops in the sea level, temperature variation, brightness of the sun, plate tectonics (movement of the continents), change in ocean currents, and even an unpredictable catastrophic asteroid strike 65 mln years ago that wiped the dinosaurs (there is strong evidence there have been multiple asteroid/comet global killers throughout Earth's known 3-3.5 bln years of organic life) , etc - did we forget something? Start with a simple example of a "proto animal" - the first ancestor(s). Let's say it was a little simple sphere or a bacteria like oval shape creature. And let's say one of them developed a small mutation in the skin that made the shell bit longer and protruded like a tail. It allowed it to move faster than others and get more food, grow larger and survive. Through genetic mutation and DNA this feature has been passed on to the next generation. Another creature did not develop this feature and was outcompeted for food and died out or still was able to survive and stayed in the same shape or had another mutation in the shell that that gave it less sensitivity to acidic water environment where both creature 1 and creature 2 lived and also gave it an edge to "see" at night vs. "only daylight" creature 1. Both survived yet diverged from each other and have separate environments, genetic make up and cannot cross breed over thousands of generations (definition of a new species). There had to be innumerable changes from an original over 3 bln years of evolution - each variation developed on its own and provided the animal an edge to survive and pass on its genes to the next generation. Hence we have a huge variety of animals. No God explanation required. For sake of simplicity, we'll use a reproduction cycle of a "proto animal" of 1 year and 1/1000th (ONE THOUSANDTH) of a percentage of mutation/advantage/disadvantage per life cycle that is passed on or not to the next generation to because they have allowed the parents to survive. Imagine what your nose, ears, eyes, hair, nails, heart, hands, legs, feet, arms would look when changed one thousand percent to three million percent in appearance, shape, form, number of bones, function. Consider the same to go for your brain and intellect and also your morality, ethics, knowledge, love, fear, and religious delusions "evolving" in the same manner. Imagine what "one million percent" difference will be over 1 billion years of evolution - see chart below? E.g. your height is 6 feet. Statistically, if your descendants grow taller by "one million percent" - 10,000 times (yes, ten thousand times) taller than you as the "common ancestor". Your jaws, shape of legs, number of bones, reproduction system, color of skin, size of brain, intellect, societal morals etc. will also change depending on the genetic mutations, natural selection, environmental factors, etc in different ratios - not necessarily 10,000 times but let's say by 1,000 times or something will not change and some genes will stay the same. Do you think your descendants will be the same species of human as you are? We don't think so. If you think they will be, then you are DELUSIONAL. So, stop whining about Evolution, accept it, and move on with your life and stop pushing your religious fairy tales onto the rest of the society, politics, science and morals and your children. If you are a minister or a pastor reading this - stop the mental child abuse of children coming to your church with your fairy tales. If you would like to talk to us about you perpetrating "sins" of "logical and common sense fallacies" onto your flock in your church, please, contact us. We will attempt to straighten your brain so you understand the "wretchedness and wickedness" of your religious ways. In short - get a "secular" life :o) OK, here are the numbers... Have a nice "non creationism/ non delusional life"
