How can you accept evolution and still have a spiritual reality, and/or a God faith

Since all of the scientific evidence supports the theory of evolution and only the theory of evolution what led you to the conclusion that it was wrong?
Lol! How does the Cambrian Explosion support “only” the theory of evolution?

You’re so biased, it amazes me!

Are you interested in belief of a deity? Or something else? Just curious.

No particular deity comes to mind.
I mainly want to know what evolution science says about the general conviction to spiritual reality, and/or God reality.

Come on, let's not be dishonest. :rolleyes:

Come on, let's not assume we know things about people we don't.

I'm serious though. I went in ready to accept it if I found it to be true no big deal. I simply did not. I'm not alone or intimidated by ... much of anything really.

I probably don't understand you fully. But the theory of evolution "says" nothing about spirituality or deities.

I agree from a purely scientific stance. But some people would have it that the spiritual is totally refuted by evolution; and cosmology for that matter as well.

Nah. Evolution rejection is a very small and vanishing demographic of Abrahamic faith (let alone theism as a whole) largely in the US. Bible literalism is relatively new and virtually nonexistent in Judaism or in the rest of the developed world.

Does evolution totally remove God, and spirit from reality.

If yes, how so?

If no, how so?

Since evolution is based completely in naturalism and a materialistic view of the universe I believe God and spirit are then totally removed from this worldview.

I would be interested in understanding how you came to that conclusion.

We disagree vehemently. No evidence I see for it whatsoever.

In short - the basic processes of reproduction. Meiosis and the complexities of how sperm and egg cells are made. New genetic information is never added in reproduction- only deleted or rearranged. No matter how many dogs you breed for how long you'll keep getting dogs.


Saying "add lots of time, it can happen" is air filled. We do not see this occur, ever.
Uh, sorry, but what you are saying... is just ignorance of biology presented with a brave attempt at being convincing.
