Evolution Myths
Evolution: A Tendency of Human Being
to Believe in Myths Every scientific theory begets myths, and this also happens with the Theory of Evolution. What is many times a possibility, a deduction, spreads as though it were a proven truth. Example: The selection of species favors the survival of the strongest. This is a myth. As the theory does not interrelate all of the factors involved in the evolutionary process, which would be absolutely impossible to do anyway due to their immense complexity, and given that strength is one of
the most important factors in certain circumstances, this interpretation
was generalized. For many people it is more than an interpretation:
it is a belief. Thus it has been transmitted as though it were
part of the theory. Interpretations and equivocal generalizations,
triggered by the longing for ready answers to everything, occur
in all scientific theories and sometimes persist for centuries,
until new discoveries or the development of better instruments
of measurement either confirm or refute them. The best
proposal about evolution, such as that made by Charles Darwin,
fails to answer many questions, yet it is propagated as
though it does. The void in this theory end up being transformed
into myths.
It appears to be difficult for human beings to live with doubt, with probability. The most common solution is to transform into fact what is, in reality, a fantasy, to establish as true
that which is speculation, to confirm as concrete what is subjective,
to show as proof what is evidence. The more
the source of information is
worthy of credit, the greater the distortions.
And it cannot be different with the Theory of Evolution.
The best ‘finished’ proposal on evolution, the one that was discovered by Charles Darwin, does not answer as many questions as we would like, yet it is
disclosed and propagated as though it answered all of them.
Ambiguities accur, and these are then transformed into myths.
1. Mega Myths. Evolution Science" an Oxymoron?
In terms of pure science, "evolution science" appears to be a contradiction-an oxymoron. Evolution is unpredictable
and arbitrary, while science is systematic-based on a preexisting
system. www.creationdigest.com/archives/evolutionscience.htm www.creationdigest.com/archives/evolutionscience.htm
2. The Many Myths of Evolution
It is hard to discuss the problems with the theory of evolution because there are so many theories of
evolution. All of them have major problems. www.ridgenet.net/~do_while/sage/v1i8f.htm
