"Destined Minds"

THE EVOLUTION OF MAN

, , , , , ,

THE EVLOLTUION OF MAN

and how far have we come that man
claims his own authority and what
pray tell is the missing link
that is missing from his own heart

so trek with me down the anals of history
and the past of anthrapology
for which no evolutionist
will ever make an apology

and the evolutionist's imagination
scurries from tree to tree
swinging on conjecture
that clouds the minds of science

and gives life to lies and myth
of theories as Java Man still graces
the hallowed pages of our textbooks
so what manner of man is it

for the monkey buisness that goes
on in the name of science and
without any direct piece of evidence
we accept the lies in our schools

and preach to our children their
ancestory that crept out of the
mud pools which now lays claim
to a common ancestory of a once

hairy tailed quadreped but the
diminishing chain of descent will
one day reveal the foolishness of man
that what was missing all along

was the spirit that acknowledges God
so continue eating your bannana's when you
could be enjoying a banquet instead of a
figment of paleontological wishfulness

and mutely deafening remains the evolutionist
as an empty vessel of empty words
with no evidence in it's museum save
an interesting afternoon for children

I'd rather stay close to well-proven science than to the great fairytale called "god" and badly-written poems.

Sorry, but if creationism was the truth, there'd be no progress for humankind and no discoveries that could warn us from past catastrophes.

True and in fact this debate has risen again here in my country, well the country I live in.
But the same can be said 'bout the Holy Book and it's tales.
At the end of the day it all comes down to ones own perception and evaluation of information.
And is the question whether there is a God or not that important?
Would it "shape" devoted believers and followers into beasts if the answer is negative?
That really is the issue IMO.
And Ego and how one handles it.
Once again a nice poem/complaint.

vivalamuerte,
thank you for taking the time to read and for your comments...I would wonder perhaps what your thoughts are on evolution of man exactly are? oh did you read the link? what are your thoughts on it?

I think the likes of Mother Theresa are proof of just one person who advances mankind for their faith and gives progress in a dar dark world...

you didn't like the phrasing "swinging on conjecture" have to admit I like that line myself

and congratulations you are indeed my first ever negative response to my poetry...save my husbands who doesn't understand why they don't rhyme...lol - so do you think this one just badly written or do you personally think all of my work dissappointing to you? I don't recall seeing you around do you write? anyway again thanks for taking the time to express your thoughts

daxonmacs
thank you for your comments - as for the discussion of truth - it cannot divide itself nor fight agaisnt itself - it stands outside of perception and evaluation...

I would say yes...to know God I would say would make an eternity of difference...lol

but no if I were to hypotesis and say there is no God at the least would say I have led a goodly life...

Well, my thoughts on evolution? Well, it is a continous process that was happening in the past, that is happening right now, and the will be happening in the future. Evidence? Yes, and quite a lot, and a whole hell of evidence. Just get into research for yourself and find out, instead of reading creationist propaganda. And that's that.

The link basically just is pseudo-scientific propaganda from creationist movement, look at the illustrations and you see what they really intend to do - to divert one's mind.

And what about mother theresa... hell no she is no proof of god or whatsoever. Is the a-bomb proof of satan? No, of course not, it's the same way human than mother theresa is, just the other way round. By the way, I'm perfectly fine with having morals without a childish belief in god to justify morality. Those who justify their morality with god are the real bad ones, just imagine their behaviour if they found out that there is really no god.

I can add no more to what vivalalameurte said..
One side believes in a god only and the other in scientific fact backed up by years of tangible proof..
In every great civilization there has been gods in one form or the other like people believing in fertility gods to gods racing across the sky pulling the sun to gods that claim to be all powerful but you must have blind faith and never ask for tangible proof..
I can just as well stand upon a podium claiming to be a god.. just don't ask me proof!

Maree Long Tuesday, February 19, 2008 11:16:12 PM

I think the difference Cois with you and vivalamurete is you are prepared to discuss calmly so what your argreeing with Cois is that neither you nor vivalamurette are able to provide any proof of evolution of man evolving from one species to another?

let me know when you guys have something more than "piltdown man"

in regard to Mother Theresa - where indeed would we be without the genuine heart on this great earth.....perhaps you underestimated her work?

Cois.
ok I promise not to pressure you for proof of your being God...no get off that podium before you fall and break something...lol

Bad WolfCois Wednesday, February 20, 2008 12:01:23 AM

If I needed to give you proof of evolution of man I could give you a few hundred thousand links google would provide me by just typing in those words.. I do not deny that people believe in their gods and wish their souls go to a place of everlasting life.. I do believe this is flawed to say there's only one god as this means the part of the population that don't have christianity as a religion is going to hell.. plus those poor souls living up in the mountains that haven't even heard of the christian god..

Don't worry.. i'm not such a vengefull god as to strike you down just because you blaspheme against me.. ask and you shall receive but you just need to work your ass off for it and even then i won't give it to you..
if something terrible happens to you even if you've worshiped me all your life remember i work in mysterious ways.. will you worship me now?

Maree Long Wednesday, February 20, 2008 12:10:01 AM

Actually dealing with the crap I'm going through I still worship/honor God as best is able....and I don't think Gods ways as mysterious....
I've googled and can't come up with a single piece of evidence of science that shows man to be anything but man....maybe you google better than I?

Scripture actually addresses that issue of peoples living in remote areas - "all will have the opportunity" and in the least circumstance nature it says declares the living God...no one will miss out on hearing the word Cois of that I am assured..

Bad WolfCois Wednesday, February 20, 2008 1:40:13 AM

So which means I can put faith aside and be judged at a later date? strange how that would make sense but you'll retaliate and say that you know about God so now you should worship..
Christianity has blocked every loophole but when it comes back to scientific study it disproves it time and time again.. is this why evolution is not possible in accordance to you?

Still didn't answer me.. do I make a fitting god?
If Gods Ways Weren't so mysterious then why don't we experience things like they happened in the bible?
Blind faith is NOT for me..

Maree Long Wednesday, February 20, 2008 6:47:24 AM

retaliate? or respond? retaliate seems such a strong word

ok see you have pressed for an answer - NO!~! lol hardly any more fitting thatn I would for role of God though I did apply for it once online and the position was taken lol

You mean experience, adultery, murder, fornication, stealing, hate and spite, death or

grace and mercy and kindness, restoration, and yes healing and miracles, visions and dreams....

I would say man in general experiences all of what is in scripture - I have received personally healing on my knees, and have expereinced divine intervention, answered prayers (and rather specific)cause I'm rather specific and demanding I guess...not that God would act because I demand...but I need to know it's from God and not my own doing.

and no not at all in terms of putting off accepting Christ- for you have heard about Christ - you know about God's word - your acceptance or rejection is your choice of consequence

Bad WolfCois Wednesday, February 20, 2008 1:51:48 PM

Sorry.. respond.. I keep thinking this is a discussion that I'd have as with offline close friends..
I meant such things as walking on water, turned 3 loaves and 3 fishes into a feast, instant healing etc etc.. ever see a talking burning bush? ever had angels come down and appear before us mortal beings? it doesn't make sense that it happened then and not now..
Acceptance or rejection is what christians would say.. its like a kid saying take it or leave it..

That is exactly what it is, you know, you should define proof. I think one has to be a critic all the way or never at all. you can't simply be critical when analysing the scripture and then accept whatever " find " of the scientific corner. that sounds like favoritism and ... well rejection.
It's like in that U2 song " when fact is fiction and TV reality " a line that for some reason stayed in my head smile
Man's mind is a strange grey area as well, if you can't deal with certain experiences they'll get banned or blocked or one might say rejected rather suspended untill able to deal with it ...
Say Cois, if tomorrow in an unattended moment you'ld see the shining glimpse of an angel, would you believe that? Or would you just run to the spot to reassure yourself that there " really " isn't anything there?
I think I'd personally sit back and mumble something like " well well look at that" but then again one does deal with the information that comes to one's self any which way one wants or can. wink

Maree Long Wednesday, February 20, 2008 11:12:23 PM

Even with close freinds - on or off - I would hardly wish to retaliate...??? respond passionately perhaps?

I have been instantly healed at a service - (I doubted and figured if the man was of God then I would be healed - I was even to scared to get up on the chair much less jump off it to prove I was healed not to mention feeling silly) as I'm not one to get caught up in pentecostal hype and so on - but I figured what have I got to loose...I got up on that chair, then jumped down landing on both feet (something I had not been able to do for many years as even lifitng my knees was agony)

and I gave an example of laying on hands that I was personally witness too in being freed from cancer...

recently praying for ayoung man who was critical and in coma after falling from two story window working etc...that young man sped through coma and recovery and rehab in a matter of weeks - which even the doctors have no answer for - but our church does because we prayed...

Maree Long Wednesday, February 20, 2008 11:13:58 PM

acceptance or rejection? is something God would say...each man must choose for himself - we can neither beckon or force someone to believe
