Examples Of Arguments Against Evolution

By Marcia Marks


How the whole universe came into being is still a mystery to many. Many theories have thus come up to try and explain how they were formed and why they are in their current positions. They are known as the theories of evolution, and mostly they are in opposition to the creation story in the bible. According to them, the universe was formed through natural means. However, there are number of arguments against evolution which have be put forward.

A number of the arguments are based on the fact that there are no witnesses to evolution. Most of these theories have therefore failed to provide evidence for the availability of transitional forms. If what they purport was true, then plants and animals would not have been differentiated. It is however difficult to see the process happening even at the present times.

Fruit flies have been used in many experiments by scientists when trying to create new species. They have been chosen for research because of their high rate of reproduction. The main aim of these experiments was to allow mutation to take place under the same conditions purported in the theories. However the experiments have failed because it is not possible.

Meteoritic dust was discovered to be settling on top of the moon and the earth. Since it is a continuous process, it is expected that after a long period of time the dust should have piled up many inches on the surfaces of these bodies. This is also what made the evolutionists to think that the first ship sent on the moon was going to sink. However, what they had thought did not occur as only less than an inch is what was found. It therefore indicates that the moon is still young.

All heavenly bodies have their own magnetic fields, and so does the earth. That of the earth however keeps on reducing at a constant rate. It therefore means that many years ago its magnetism was very strong, something close to impossible.

Some arguments also look at the fact that if the magnetism of the earth is due to electric currents in it then it would not be in place today. This is because the heat that would have been generated by the currents some twenty thousand years ago would have easily dissolved the earth. This is therefore against the theories of the evolutionists.

Many people have been questioning the geological evidence that has been provided to support evolution. The main question is here is why are there no transitional fossils to show how the current species changed through various forms. This what mainly led to the development of the punctuated equilibria theory. According to it, one species could develop into another, for example mammals being born by birds.

The conditions through which the punctuated equilibria theory is based upon are of low probability. There are therefore various arguments against evolution and some may be true while some are not. Some people have thus chosen to stick with the original story of creation.
