Faith and Science

It is a question of faith whether a person believes they are the product of design or a product of pure random chance.

Faith in evolution is faith in being a purely random being who has no intrinsic value in themselves at all. Apart from whatever one does during their lives there is no purpose in their existence.

Evolution condemns people to a brief existence and then nothing. So it doesn't really matter what they do with their lives. Why bother to respect law? Surely as long as a person can avoid being caught breaking the law then absolutely anything is acceptable! And I do mean 'anything'. Stealing, abusing, killing etc are all perfectly acceptable behaviours. Why not? There is no comeback. There is no existence after death. So what if Stalin is in the history books as a mass murderer? Evolutionary thinking is that it doesn't effect him now, so what does it matter what he did?

Please be clear about the above statement. If you believe in evolution then you accept the statements above. There is no middle ground!

Evolution is a religion in itself! It might be cloaked in science but it is a religion in every definition of the term. The one difference is that there is no way that anyone is saved by this religion. Every believer of it is condemned. No one, not even their high priests, can look forward to anything except annihilation!

Without going into the details of the various religions it is fairly obvious that a society that attempts to follow a given standard of behaviour is going to be a lot more orderly and a lot less savage, than a society where the people believe that their lives are of no value and they can do whatever it takes to gain themselves an advantage.
