Then there is no morality except spreading your genes as widely as possible and destroying any competition, through any means necessary.

Imagine, Evolution is God’s way.
I imagine there are both.
Imagine there is no Allah....

If Adam and Eve descended from apes, and apes fron other life-forms and so on over vast stretches of time, then God is a God of death not life and men need saving from God.
It is obvious that when dropped into soil a tomato seed goes through a transformative process from seed to vine. Note that a tomato seed nevers transforms itself into something else entirely, as macroevolutionists believe happens despite the fact that no such thing has ever occured.
We all know that these transformatist processes occur. Where everything goes wrong is when men, whose minds are finite and given to error, construct theories of everything on that basis and then attempt to conform the Genesis account to their imaginary constructs.

I don’t follow Popper, I follow God. He can make an entire universe for each soul He creates, if it pleases Him. He can certainly make “evolution” operational on this little world without discrediting Himself.
A few centuries ago, the average person was offended by the suggestion that he arose from an egg.
Yet we all arise from eggs; and babies are still from Heaven.
Do you understand how oxymoronic that statement happens to be? How can a designer allow something to happen by random chance? It is a self-defeating argument.
God is the grand designer, he created all life. The miracle of the cell and DNA has his fingerprints all over it.
Not so. He created life. Not once did something appear where God said "Wow, never expected THAT!".
In a sense, Liberalism is responsible for today’s secular evolutionist’s ideas. To paraphrase a quote: Liberalism is the dogmatic affirmation of the absolute independence of the individual and of the social reason. True Christianity, on the other hand, is the dogma of the absolute subjection of the individual and of the social order to the REVEALED AND ABSOLUTE LAW OF GOD. One doctrine is the exact antithesis of the other. They are opposites in direct conflict.
It’s all to avoid “Cosmic Accountability”.
Most folks only want to be held accountable to their own standard, which inevitably is set at just one degree below how they want to live anyway.
“Sin is... being out of alignment with my values.”

If Genesis and its account of creation are not true, then the rest of the Bible is crap. No two ways about it. Pure crap. It all stems form and is based upon In The Beginning. Jesus referred to both Adam and Noah. Was he mistaken. The multi-billion dollar evolution industry is aimed at Genesis 1:1. The very foundation. Jesus’ lineage can be traced back to Adam. Unless it’s a lie.
We are in this mess largely, maybe wholly, because people have come to think of themselves as just another animal, just an accident of evolution.
The foundation must be guarded and rebuilt.
Evolution and Communism go hand in glove.
Communism is “societal evolution”, justified by natural evolutionary theory,
it is also based on:
the idea that some humans are further advanced than others and deserve to rule
and the idea that the difference between a machine, a bug, a dog, and a human are just a matter of degree.
That’s so illogical, I don’t know where to start.
We’re reaping the fruit of that as we see the moral breakdown of our society
Exactly. The Ten Commandments and the entire Western Civilization founded upon Judeo-Christian values are out the window. We're all just evolved monkeys that only "think" we know better.
