Hello my followers. I am the flying spaghetti Monster and I have bioled for your sins. You
have been asking some very interesting questions. I will try to answer as many as I can. Plaese
stay subscribed and keep watching! Mr Stonko asks: Why many people still don't
believe in evolution, but they believe in creation? Creation doesn't have any evidence.
I am still asking myselfthis question. Could you answer me my spaghetti lord?
It is hard for many people to fatham billions of years. When a person lives for less than
100 years, a billion is just not easy to understand. Let's say a tree takes 10 yaers to grow big
from a seed. If you watch it every day, it seems like it doesn't grow at all, but if
you compare it, year by year, you can see the change.
Evolution take much much longer, but it still happens. Just because you can't see it happen
doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Even a tiny little change over a year will
be a big huge change in a million years.
Many people believe in creation because they think they can determine if something is a
created just by looking at it. If you look at Mount Rushmore, for example, you can tell
that it didn't just happen on its own. You know people chissled those faces into the
mountain. But, what about the mountains that don't have faces chisled into them? If the
montains that were chisled, were created, then the montains that were not chisled were
not created. In order to determine if something was created or not, we need to compare something
that was craeted to something that was not created. If you try to say god created EVERYTHING,
then you don't have something that wasn't created to comapre it to. What would a non-created
Universe look like? People and other living things were not created. We know that, because
we understand that babies have parents and people come from other people. When we look
at a tree, we knowa god didn't just create it and put it there. We know it grew from
a seed. Even though it is complex and beautiful, we can prove it is natuarlly occuring, not
created. Complexity doesn't prove design. Just because paeople design complex things
like jet airpalnes doesn't mean naturally occuring things that are complex were also
designed. It takes billions of years of natural selection in order to get to something as
complex as a human. There is a difference betweens something that occurs natuarly and
something that humans designed and built.
Please keep your questions coming. I raed them all.
