Gaps in evolution theory:
Between the living and non-living or dead matter;
Between the vegetable and the animal kingdoms;
Between the invertebrates and the vertebrates;
Between marine animals and amphibians;
Between amphibians and reptiles;
Between reptiles and birds;
Between reptiles and mammals;
Between mammals and the human body;
Between soulless simians and the soul of man, bearing the image of God.
It takes less faith to believe “God” made this than “earth” made this
Those of us that work with very large numbers understand how it is not even possible for random changes to DNA to create where we are now. A human DNA strand is estimated to be about 3.2 billion base pairs. That represents a number of (2)^3,000,000,000.
Compare that to the estimated number of atoms in the universe (10)^81
Starting with a single cell origin of life and evolving to today’s diversity, the gap that hangs me up is between asexual reproduction to sexual reproduction. It was one heck of a random mutation to come up with two codependent complete and functioning systems, male and female, or if it was a series of mutations one has to assume that each partial step in that direction was, at that partial stage, an advantage to survival. Even then it is wildly beyond imagination that random mutations, occurring in two different systems, male and female, would continue to build to a complete system that complemented the other.
"... a head teacher from a primary school in the UK recently stated that evolution is a theory rather than a fact. This is despite the fact that children in the UK start learning about evolution in Year 6 (ten to 11-year-olds), and have further lessons throughout high school...."
Maybe because evolution is a theory.
Also, what does the age of brainwashing have to do with truth?
Hint: Nothing.
