While there is a belief that humans have evolved from apes, religion has an explanation. Evolution is the theory that modern life has descended from a common ancestor, through the process of natural selection. Faith on the other hand, claims that life was created in the form it is today with some alterations from God. Since evolution was found it has been debated by all faiths. Evolution generates an explanation for the origin of life which is not necessary when there is religion, logic, and evidence explaining each aspect. Religion guides people and hence the need for evolution become unnecessary.
Both religion and evolution can be seen as a concept that gives answers to people. For some religion retorts many questions and is a pathway of …show more content…
(Darwin p.179) Yet there is no evidence at all. In spite of his hopefulness, he understood that these missing transitional structures were the greatest interference for his hypothesis. “Why do we not now find closely-linking intermediate varieties? This difficulty for a long time quite confounded me.” (Darwin p.124-125) He assumed that his followers would find evidence later on. Nowadays, when Darwinist are told about the absent evidence in the fossil record, they make an excuse by alleging rare preservation and error of the fossil record. The Cambrian Explosion refers to the appearance in the fossil record of most major animals about 543 million years ago. The Cambrian Explosion is often represented as a test for evolution in light of the fact that the sudden blast of progress in the fossil record gives off an impression of being conflicted with the more common slow pace of evolutionary change. “…the Cambrian strata of rocks, vintage about 600 million years, are the oldest ones in which we find most of the major invertebrate groups. And we find many of them already in an advanced state of evolution, the very first time they appear. It is as though they were just planted there, without any evolutionary history. Needless to say, this appearance of sudden planting has delighted creationists.” (Dawkins p.229) Darwin predicted that animals diverged gradually from a common pattern, so there should be fossil examples of this divergence, while instead we see that the major differences arose abruptly at the
