Christian Arguments Against Evolution In A Nutshell

By Linda Ruiz


Evolution simply refers to the slow transformation of life forms and others too. It is believed to be the process by which creatures transition with time. This is a gradual process that takes plenty of time to show. It occurs because these organisms need to survive in the changing environment. Knowledge of the story of creation forms the basis of the Christian arguments against evolution.

Christians are basically skeptic of the presence of advancement due to a number of reasons. These reasons range from biblical ones to lack of visual proof to evolution. Christians believe God to be the perfect designer. Therefore none of his creation needs to change to fit its environment. They are perfect in their original design.

The bible is one of the oldest and most consistent books known to man. And yet it describes all creatures as they are on earth today. All animals, trees and humans are today as they were characterized in the bible several centuries ago. If advancement were a fact then perhaps there would be a difference. This fact also nullifies the existence of advancement to any Christian and hence justifies the argument.

Also the lack of evidence to verify development over time has proved it a dubious philosophy. Its only apparent proof is theoretical or experimental. Despite the endless efforts of researchers no evidence has been availed yet. Seemingly similar organisms have paramount differences within themselves. They show no characteristic of evolution at all. They remain consistent with the story of creation.

Evolutionists base their arguments on fossil. Yet not even fossil can quantify their theories. No remains have been found so far to prove the presence of intermediate orgasms on earth. This implies that there has been no transition taking place even in the past. This missing part makes the puzzle even harder for them. The Christian argument becomes easier and with more grounds. For progression to be there must be intermediate organisms and their fossil proof.

Evolution also gets its basis from the naturalism philosophy. This indicates that the universe exists because of natural forces and the laws around them. It insists that there are no supernatural ones that created the world. This theory too does not have much ground. It hardly gives much for reason and crumbles when duly tested.

Attempts have also been made to establish a link using similarities in genetics. A comparison of characteristics of DNA strands shows significant similarity. This happens especially in organisms with same nature. It is not a conclusive argument though. This element only works to prove God and his superior design in creation. Hence proving this attempt at justification unsuccessful too. It in fact works in line with the Christian argument.

In conclusion therefore, Christians are justified in their argument. Evolution has no evidence whatsoever. It is only theory with no physical proof and with only partial elaborations. Hence it cannot be considered factual. God created the universe with everything in it perfect. No significant change occurs even in a million years.
