Additionally, in order for there to be ‘predictability,’ there must exist a history of past and similar occurances (patterns). Only through comparison of yesterdays’ patterns with todays’ occurances can we know something about predictability.

All of the foregoing not only shows the glaring contraditions inherent in Darwinism, but its’ need for magic-thinking and self-delusion.

Excellent post! The entire premise of Darwinism is predicated upon the absurd assumption that all sorts of random particles began to interact with each other one day and everything seemed to turn out okay because we are here today.

The irony is that the people who believe this worship science and everything we know about science tells us that the likelihood of everything going wrong is almost infinitely higher than everything turning out alright.

But ultimately, Darwinism has NOTHING to do with science or evolution or how the universe came about or anything else that they purport to care about. Darwinism is nothing more than an atheistic attempt to prove that nothing is more powerful than mankind's intellect and that those with the most "advanced" intellects somehow "deserve" to rule over the "lesser" intellects.

Thank you so very much for sharing your insights, dear brother in Christ!

Ah yes, the anthropic principle is quite common among those who have no curiosity at all why this instead of something else or nothing at all.

Spirited: Yes, and where did these particles come from? For that matter, ‘what was it’ in which they suddenly materialized? Not only are we to believe that nonlifebearing, noncognitive matter spontaneously-—but accidentally, of course— generated itself, but that life, time, cognition, laws, and all else eventually emerged out of it. Begin this improbable tale with “Once upon a time” and suddenly it comes into focus as what it really is: a fairytale for angry, rebellious adults.
