Intelligent design

Evolution is the theory of modern biology, concerning all biological areas, this theory has supported evidence and many scientists believe it to be truth. Creationist beliefs are not a scientific alternate interpretation to evolution. This is the reason why creationism should not become part of public school curriculums, first for the fact that it is illegal, the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits the government from establishing religion. Requiring that public schools are not to…

Because God always existed in reality and understanding, created the universe and things in the universe, God is also the Intelligent Designer (will use Creator as a shorter term). If something exists, it has an intended purpose because it was created by God, who neither requires or needs a purpose to exist nor to have a purpose for things to exist. All things that exist or will exist in the universe were created by God for a puipose. Whether a specific or undefined purpose is irrelevant to…

universally rejected by those who don’t”. For many generations, people have questioned the origin of the human species and how we came about. Until the 19th century, people had no scientific clue as to how humans came to be the walking, talking, intelligent species we are today. With the introduction of evolutionary theory by Charles Darwin, we finally have an idea of how we evolved over many generations to become the species we are. Some people in today’s society are opposed to the theory,…

Throughout Jean-Jacque Rousseau’s Emile, Rousseau explains in detail, his version of an ideal education. Rousseau’s educational methods of urging children to independently think through examples such as religion and science would be highly beneficial but his practice of withholding children from society would deem the child a stranger in modern society. In this paper, I will provide a brief overview of Rousseau’s methods above advocating children to think for themselves through science and…

When, in the course of human events, people debate a variety of topics, but some ideas become foggier rather than clear when the information is debated. The scientific theory that is Darwinism is often debated against the creation account in Genesis, or the faith-based theory. Darwin’s theory of evolution juxtaposed against the Genesis creation account allows for one to believe fully in only one of these creation accounts when discussing the creation of man, despite having other beliefs on…

But on his theory of adapt and change Sean. B.Caroll commented negatively saying Darwin did not know how the mechanisms of the process worked and he also stated that Charles had no idea of the physical forces that will actually be the reason why certain species appear differently. Darwin’s main findings was on the Galapagos island where he discovered the Galapagos birds and tortoises. According to Sean, Darwin described the birds as hideous looking creatures with a dirty black colour. The…

The Teleological Argument for the Existence of God, also known as “Arguments from Design”, states that a designer must exist because the universe and living things exhibit marks of design in their order, consistency, unity, and pattern, and that designer is God. One of the analogies used for this argument is William Paley’s Watch Maker Argument. He gives the scenario: if you were to find a watch in an open field you would automatically assume that it was designed and did not just randomly…

The argument “A Culture of Denial” (2015), written by Christopher Delgado, warns that the current practice of denying scientific discoveries will cause the human species to slow in the advancements of science. Delgado begins with a brief history of science in the view of lay persons and then tells how religion, personal agenda and ignorance helps halt breakthroughs in science. By writing this Delgado hoped to point out lead reasons of denials in scientific breakthroughs. The intended audience is…

The paragraph draws a conclusion that the fine lines discovered in a fossil skeleton did not certify that Sinosauropteryx was a feathered dinosaur. Whereas, the lecture rebuts this statement, and manifests that Sinosauropteryx has feathers. To begin with, the paragraph asserts that the fine lines were the fibers decomposed from skin preserved in the fossil instead of functional structures. Contrary to the reading, the lecture refutes that the fine lines are indeed functional structures,…

Should evolution be a required component of biology classes in high schools? Yes, I do believe evolution should be a required component of biology classes in high school. Evolution is the theory that organisms change over time, biologically, chemically, emotionally, and physically. This theory is widely accepted by the scientific community. I believe that evolution should be taught in high school classes because the theory falls within the constitutional parameters unlike creationism. It also…
