To toking65000, I don't consider you ignorant because you believe in God; it is your general lack of knowledge that demonstrates you are ignorant and uneducated. If your statements reflect your understanding of the theory of evolution, it's no wonder it doesn't make any sense to you because what you wrote IS nonsense. First, clearly evolution concerns LIVING beings, not inanimate objects; it concerns biology, not physics or chemistry, as both those latter sciences postulate that nothing about physical motions or elements evolve or change. Since you don't seem to understand this, you are just parading your ignorance. Further, evolution's notion of random mutation leading to changes in species is understood to occur over millions of years, not before your very eyes, simply because it would be convenient for your air conditioner or "cassett plater" [sic] to become better, not worse. One thing you are overlooking is that random mutation also results in worse outcomes (i.e., less viable species), but those are they ones who die out due to natural selection.
Another point you does not hold any water whatsoever: "the idea the things went from disorder to order just because order is called does NOT make sense to me." You seem to have omitted a word, but your point seems to be that there is no reason to assume life would go from disorder to order. But evolution does not say that; on the contrary, random mutation suggests disorder. The theory of theology, however, is built upon an equally unsatisfactory notion. Because there is a universe and life, there must be a creator and a superhuman being. There is no logic behind that and everyone knows it. We cannot KNOW how the universe came to be. Theology posits a superior being and creator, but there is no (repeat NO) empirical evidence to support it. It is only our theory. So how is evolution, for which there is plenty of evidence, albeit there are still plenty of holes in the theory, make less sense to you than religious doctrine. You can choose to believe it, but that is a matter of faith. If you are insisting that it makes more sense, than you are just kidding yourself, so that you do not have to make the hard leap of faith.
