The scientific community, society and even many churches have accepted that the earth is billions of years old and evolution by natural selection and chance have brought about the world that we know today. Where is the evidence for this conclusion? What does the Bible actually say? Let's start a respectful conversation.

Evolution's Human Population Problem
World population is a very interesting indication if a young earth. Ian Juby makes a couple very compelling points in one of his Crevo Rants. One of these is that if mankind has been on the earth for 200,000 years as evolutionists believe, and they have been burying their dead for over 100,000 years, why don't we find billions of graves? Why aren't there billions more people alive today? One might cite the starvation that very unfortunately plagues our planets people today and suggest that the planet cannot support more human life. We should instead consider that the people that are starving aren't starving because of a global food deficit, but rather are subject to the abuse of their government or other oppressive authority that does not allow food aid to reach the people. Solving world hunger isn't about growing more food, it is about getting the food we have to the people that need it!

This post shows an obvious ignorance in both history & modern practices of body disposal. Many cultures cremate or leave bodies out to be scavenged. Please do not be so ethnocentric as it leads to purely fallacious statements as what you have written above.
ReplyDeleteI realize that your worldview (humans arising from apes) you would expect humans to leave their dead as they fell. In my worldview, I expect them to have had human dignity from the beginning.
ReplyDeleteBut if we examine the huge discrepancy in the number of graves when your view is examined, we should see that MOST cultures did not practice burial. The burden is on you.
