Evolution

Science deals with facts. Fact is; the Universe is at least 15 billion years old and the earth is at least 4.5 billion years old. Genesis is a great story but the earth has been here a lot longer than 6 thousand years. The Big Bang Theory has years of scientific evidence to support it. Additionally the fossil record shows us that life began on this planet in a very primitive state, and through the process called Survival of the Fittest, continued to slowly improve until life exists as we know it today. I'm sure you are familiar with the statistical argument that although it is possible for the molecules of amino acid to randomly combine to form DNA and very simple life, however the chance of it happening is so remote, it would take a trillion universes a trillion years just to have a 50/50 chance that a single molecule of DNA to form. This is known as the improbability argument against the spontaneous evolution of life from simple molecules. However, science once again comes to the rescue. Quantum Reality experiments have shown us data that is best explained by an infinite number of universes. In essence, every time there is a quantum event at the sub atomic level, the universe splits. One universe has one possible result and the other universe contains the alternate result. It might be difficult to imagine an infinite number of universes in parallel with ours, however, the brightest minds of science ascribe to the many worlds solution to quantum reality. Follow the logic with me. An infinite number of universes would contain at least one universe where random formation of DNA and the evolution of simple life could occur. By combining the evidence of the Big Bang with the evidence of Quantum Reality we can trust the evidence of the fossil record to mean what is shows us plain and simple. Life evolved on this planet, as improbable as it may seem. The facts support this theory much better than the Genesis account of creation. Genesis describes a universe and an earth only 6 thousands years old, and the evidence points to an earth billions of years old.
