Re: Atheism
You are spot on..
If you study biology in the light of evolution everything starts making sense. Without evolution everything falls apart.
How can this alien arrival dogma explain more than 90% similarity of genetic composition between a human and chimpanzee.
Also the fact that not a single evidence has been found against the evolutionary lineage from all the geological time data, it should be an eye opener for the people who believe that billions of species are all aliens who arrived from somewhere else.
Evolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Prokaryotes inhabited the Earth from approximately 3–4 billion years ago.No obvious changes in morphology or cellular organisation occurred in these organisms over the next few billion years. The eukaryotic cells emerged between 1.6 – 2.7 billion years ago. The next major change in cell structure came when bacteria were engulfed by eukaryotic cells, in a cooperative association called endosymbiosis. The engulfed bacteria and the host cell then underwent co-evolution, with the bacteria evolving into either mitochondria or hydrogenosomes. Another engulfment of cyanobacterial-like organisms led to the formation of chloroplasts in algae and plants.
The history of life was that of the unicellular eukaryotes, prokaryotes and archaea until about 610 million years ago when multicellular organisms began to appear in the oceans in the Ediacaran period.The evolution of multicellularity occurred in multiple independent events, in organisms as diverse as sponges, brown algae, cyanobacteria, slime moulds and myxobacteria.
Soon after the emergence of these first multicellular organisms, a remarkable amount of biological diversity appeared over approximately 10 million years, in an event called the Cambrian explosion. Here, the majority of types of modern animals appeared in the fossil record, as well as unique lineages that subsequently became extinct. Various triggers for the Cambrian explosion have been proposed, including the accumulation of oxygen in the atmosphere from photosynthesis.
About 500 million years ago, plants and fungi colonised the land and were soon followed by arthropods and other animals. Insects were particularly successful and even today make up the majority of animal species. Amphibians first appeared around 364 million years ago, followed by early amniotes and birds around 155 million years ago (both from “reptile”-like lineages), mammals around 129 million years ago, homininae around 10 million years ago and modern humans around 250,000 years ago. However, despite the evolution of these large animals, smaller organisms similar to the types that evolved early in this process continue to be highly successful and dominate the Earth, with the majority of both biomass and species being prokaryotes.
Correction our ancestral form has been taken from this world … i.e. Adam was fashioned from clay/dust … of this world and then taken to heaven. The alien part of it is merely the returning of what has orginally come from here anyway … that is enough to destroy the alien argument, but even if we were true aliens i.e. not from this world in any way, shape or form - we believe Allah (SWT) has power over all things.
