Why do people deny evolution?

Can you explain the science, by where hundreds of thousands of lines of DNA code, form at random, by chance in a warm pond.

Just as a computer cpu, is not needed without the rest of the computer, a computer creator builds all the parts to fit together at assembly time.

Can you explain, how a Ferrari F-50 and a Toyota Prius, both have pushrods?

You are the one who can not understand evolution. God created DNA in some or various forms, to populate this planet, perhaps, so he could come back here and have something to eat, at a later date. No one knows, however, if we take a simple organism to Mars, where it would surely develop, given enough time, into something as intelligent as you, this is how evolution works. Clearly God did not drop humans onto an uninhabited rock, he left his greatest gift, the DNA that became both us, and all other animals, those both similar, and those that are different.

God created DNA in some or various forms, to populate this planet, perhaps, so he could come back here and have something to eat, at a later date.

Not chance; Natural Selection. Not warm pond; Organic ocean. Proven in biology; logically inferred for all replicative molecules.

All we need do, is set up a Mars base, figure out what type of life will grow there, and let it go. Then it evolves, and we are God.

Why I don’t believe in science…and students shouldn’t either

As I have been preparing for my last post on SciEd, I’ve reflected on why I became a science educator to begin with. And I realize it’s because I strongly believe that knowledge is an important tool to improve our lives and it should be shared with others. This is strange however, because even though I have this belief, I don’t believe in science. So why am I so passionate about something I don’t believe in?

Science and Belief

Science is how we describe the natural world, and if you search the web for “what is science,” three words tend to come up more often than others: observation, experiment, and evidence. Observations and experiments may not be perfect, even at the limits of our technologies, and interpretations may be flawed, but it’s the evidence that supports, or doesn’t, an argument that is the most important. And we choose to either accept it, or not.

I wanted to get an on-the-spot response from a scientist, so I asked one of my colleagues at work, Dr. Briana Pobiner, a paleoanthropologist, “You believe in evolution, right?” I was surprised by how quickly she answered “I don’t believe in evolution – I accept the evidence for evolution.” The believing isn’t what makes evolution true or not, it’s that there is evidence that supports it.

There are plenty of other scientists out there that don’t like the use of the word “believe.” Kevin Padian, of the University of California, Berkeley, wrote an open-access article about science and evolution, entitled “Correcting some common misrepresentations of evolution in textbooks and the media.” He states:

“Saying that scientists ‘believe’ their results suggests, falsely, that their acceptance is not based on evidence, but is based somehow on faith.”

The closeness of belief to faith, belief in something without proof, seems to be a reason a number of scientists disapprove of the word. It does tend to introduce religion, which describes the supernatural, something that science cannot accomplish.

Padian continues:

“…it is about the quality of the evidence: scientists accept their results as the best explanation of the problem that we have at present, but we recognize that our findings are subject to reevaluation as new evidence comes to light.”...

You seem ignorant about the word faith.
