What would be a good approach to arguing with Darwin's Theory of Evolution?
You did not emphasize if you're arguing "For" or "Against" Darwin's Theory of Evolution. If you're arguing "for", then you have to read the latest developments like Genetics, etc. If you're arguing "Against", then you need more than luck; You need a miracle.To say a miracle would be needed to argue against evolution shows that one has not studied the issue of origins from all viewpoints, and has accepted what is actually an unproven theory as a fact.Whether you are arguing for or against the Theory of Evolution, you need to read all you can about the viewpoint you are arguing, as well as the opposing viewpoint. You can find information on all sides of the issues concerning how our universe came about and the history of the earth, some that support evolution and some that support creation, intelligent design, and perhaps other theories. You can also look for studies (be careful, though, less-than-honest people can "fix" studies to show anything they want them to show), information that negates or supports things given as "facts," etc. Whatever viewpoint you take, it is important you understand that while evolution has become accepted by many as fact, it is still an unproven theory. Support can be found for other theories as well. Deb See the Related Link for "Creationist" to the bottom for the answer. See the Related Link for "Miracle" to the bottom for the answer.Law of AbioGenesis - life only comes from life not non-life. This law discovered by Pasteur well over 100 years ago has has no known exception like the law of gravity. Even the simplest unicellular life is incredibly complex and cannot arise from non-living chemicals. According to this law molecules to man evolution cannot even begin. The Fossil Record Darwin acknowledged the many gaps in the fossil record in his day but assumed that these would be filled when more fossils were discovered. But the missing links are still missing. Only around 250,000 fossil types have ever been found less than a quarter of what is on earth today. But evolution requires many intermediate forms as a reptile changes into a bird etc so it would predict many more species in the record. They are just not there except a few rare and doubtful cases. Many species remain unchanged through many millions of years of alleged evolutionary history. This is not what evolution would predict either. Frauds Exposed Most recently peppered moths stuck on trees and Haeckel's false embryo drawings (which incidentally are still presented as fact in the school system in one state in Australia) not to mention Piltdown man and others. True science does not require deliberate fraud to underpin it because the truth will always win out. Information Theory and Modern Genetics No plausible explanation exists as to how all the complex information in living organisms arose by chance. Genetic studies show definite limits to variability eg all the varieties of dogs are still dogs and are interfertile. For evolution to have occurred there must be an increase in information as the instructions for a scale to change into a feather are copied. Recombination does not create new information nor do mutations. First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics Evolution is contrary to both of these and they have no known exception.
Who said this quote Equipped with his 5 senses man explores the universe and calls the adventure science?
Science is a tool for gaining justifiable knowledge (epistemologically speaking), but I guess you can call it an adventure of you wish. That would be arguing semantics. It's the tool that made it possible to explore what's beyond our five senses actually, which are actually within very limited spectrums considering.
What did democritus do and who is he?
Democritus is a Greek philosopher (born c. 460 --- died c. 370 BC). Though only a few fragments of his work survive, he was apparently the first to describe invisible "atoms" as the basis of all matter. His atoms --- indestructible, indivisible, incompressible, uniform, and differing only in size, shape, and motion --- anticipated with surprising accuracy those discovered by 20th-century scientists. For his amusement at human foibles
Is Darwinism real or not?
Do not confuse Darwinism and evolution. Darwinism is the name loosely given to a theory, properly called Natural Selection, which attempts to explain the mechanics of evolution, which is not a theory but a set of well-observed scientific facts.Of course Darwinism, the theory that species of organisms develop through "natural selection" is real. The question should be "Is Darwinism correct?" And all the evidence shows that it is. Natural selection is happening right now. There is no question about it: organisms evolve through natural selection.The proposals in Darwin's "Origin of Species" have been examined at length by science and found to be totally supportable, and repeatedly proven by observation. Fossil records confirm species evolution in the past, microbial evolution is observed constantly in hospitals.Don't be misled by that word "theory." A theory is a tool used to explain the nature of facts. The fact in this case is evolution. Its existence is obvious to anyone who has ever studied the real world. Darwinism is a theory that seeks to explain the mechanics of evolution, just as Newton's Theory of Gravitation seeks to explain the mechanics of gravity."Rebuttal"Darwinism is a theory, not a fact. It is completely unproven and the social consequences of accepting such a theory need to be looked at. Not to mention that even if evolution is true, that doesn't mean that Darwinism is."Re-rebuttal"Subtitled: Hey, he started it!Claiming that something is "theory, not fact", does nothing to address the issue.Claiming that a theory is "unproven" shows either a complete misapprehension of how science works, or demonstrates denial of the comprehensiveness of the evidence supporting the theory.Arguing "social consequences" is a blatant and undisguised appeal to consequences. Scientific theories don't become less true (or truer) just because they have less favourable (or more) consequences. In the end, only one question matters: does it match the available data, ie. is it accurate?Arguing that natural selection/Darwinism could still be false again does nothing to address the point that it currently does fit all the available data.The claims of Darwinism/Evolution are that life evolves and does so by common ancestry and the driving force of that evolution is Natural Selection. It is supported by every scientist in the world (or, if it isn't, it should be, given the evidence). But never mind who supports it - it is so simple, very easy to understand. And, perhaps more importantly, there is evidence and confirmation from kaleidoscopically varied branches of science (genetics, ethology, paleontology.) There is no refutation yet and brilliant explanation. Indeed, the claims of Darwinism/Evolution are true (we conclude this because of evidence). In the terms of the question, Darwinism is real.Most experts in the field question whether the term "Darwinism" is even appropriate. As an analogy, one might question how appropriate it is to describe an explanatory model for gravity as "Newtonism". Not just because Newton was succeeded by Einstein, but also because it's just silly."Darwinism", when used, is most likely to refer to Darwin's original hypotheses regarding natural selection. In effect, the question posed becomes: "Is natural selection real or not?" The answer must be, unequivocally, yes. Natural selection is observed and confirmed through so many independent lines of evidence that denying it takes place is the epitome of unreasonably.The best way to look at evolution is to just look at the evolution of the air plane. The Wright Brothers flew the first engined powered aircraft in 1903. You may know people who were alive then. Now where has this evolved to? The "walk on the moon". How about computers? The very smallest today have evolved from rather large ones only a few years ago. These small ones have taken us to Mars. The old ones could not have done so. These are all examples of evolution and have been happening right under your nose, every day.Remember that evolution means change over time.This is called a theory but scientists mean that these are provable facts.Many people say that evolution is only a "theory" but this following statement is also a theory: E=MC2 This should seem familiar to all. Remember Einstein? This is his "theory". I know no one who disputes this theory.
