Re: Why are Muslims against Evolution?!?
Come on man. How is that a red herring?
This argument seems rather convincing as far as im concerned.
You know the basics of genetics. We are, all creatures on earth, essentially the product of the same basic blue print, our DNA.
The only thing that differentiates us from each other and from other species, are simply variations in the way we express that DNA.
So for us to change from one species into another, essentially requires nothing more then rearranging the 4 basic molecules of DNA.
Such rearrangements occur all the time. These are called mutations. Mutations are rearrangements that occur at a constant rate over time.
So given that Mutations occur, and rearrangements happens constantly, its inevitable, that over time, enough diversity will accumulate to constitute a completely new species.
Thats evolution, that’s one species changing into another. Its inevitable. Inevitable as a drop of water in bucket would eventually cause the bucket to overflow.
Unless you have a different definition of evolution.
