Carl Sagan – Evolution Explained (Video)
How can one possibly see a video like this and believe that it was a Creator’s plan to create humans via a 4 billion year “designed” process? Listen to it several times if you must. Looking back from the vantage point we have now, it seems obvious that primitive men with a limited understanding of the world would invent God.
What we have learned in the past several thousand years is that we were not created at all, but evolved along a convoluted, haphazard, unpredictable line. We understand more about our origin now than ever, we shape our living environments, we control the atom, we are driving the earth to it’s next global crisis (and that only took a couple of hundred years). If we WERE created (say 6,000ish years ago), then why were we created in a fairly primitive state only to be allowed the recent advances to enhance our lives and destroy ourselves over the long haul? If that were the idea of our genesis, then god naturally knew the outcome, so then… why the hell would he do that? It makes no sense.
