A few years ago, an article was published in some newspapers under the title, “Where will we go from here?” It told about the conclusion that some scientists had reached with respect to their concept of human evolution.
It appears that they were concerned because they have not seen any evolutionary changes for about 35,000 years, according to their own reckoning. Many of the evolutionary scientists indicate that the process of natural selection has been slowing down. Dr. Steve Jones, a geneticist at University College, London stated that, in the case of humans, natural selection has, to some extent, been repealed. They indicate that this has been the case for about 35,000 years when the human species began to “liberate itself from the harshest forces of natural selection.” “Natural selection” is the “survival of the fittest.” According to these evolutionists, since most humans now survive to reproductive age, “natural selection is being robbed of its important raw material.” The point being that if most everyone survives and reproduces, no selection takes; everyone is “fit” (even couch potatoes!). Dr. Stephen Jay Gould from Harvard University, the “High Priest” of evolutionists, stated, “We are not likely to speciate (that is form new species K.J.C.) unless we send up some space colonies.”
What a far cry this is from what the Bible says about man. The Bible teaches that God created man in his own image (Genesis 1:27) and “the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul” (Genesis 2:7). Who are we to believe? Are we going to believe the Creator or are we going to believe a group of pseudo-scientists who believe they know more than the Creator? Are we going to believe men who proclaim as fact that which by the nature of the situation can only be merely a theory and a theory that is based on speculations that cannot be proved?
Let us uphold the truth of God’s Word and not accept the wild and fanciful theories of men who are clearly anti-God.
