Evolution Of Man
persistence of gaps in the fossil
record
The inability to demonstrate
"life-or-death" determining
advantageous genetic mutations
And the lack of experiments or
observations to truly confirm
the evidence for speciation.

Overall, the evolution of man pervades as the accepted paradigm on the origin of man
within the scientific community.
This is not because it has been proven scientifically, but because alternative viewpoints
bring with them metaphysical implications which go against the modern naturalistic
paradigm.
Nevertheless, a closer examination of the evidence reveals evolution to be increasingly less
scientific and more reliant upon beliefs, not proof.

•
Up until about the turn of the 19th C it was generally agreed amongst the Scholars and teachers that the beginning of civilisation was traced back for a relatively
short time of about 6-10 thousand years
•
There were a few dissenters but they had no means of stating otherwise.
•
The idea of a very old earth was not taken seriously until the middle of the 19th C, so in terms of a historical philosophical viewpoint it is about 150 years old.
•
All the efforts of geologists and Paleontology and anthropology since 1850 has assumed a very old earth that has evolved in a uniformitarian environment
•
The idea of a created earth by a omnipotent omniscient and omnipresent Deity was removed from any institution and replaced with a concept of chance
•
Nobel Prize winner Jacques Monod calls it the
“central concept of modern biology” that “pure chance, absolutely free
but blind, (is) at the very root of the stupendous edifice of evolution.”
“The universe was not pregnant with life, nor the biosphere with man.
Our number came up in a Monte Carlo game.”

The concept of Blind Fate is not new to the
human psyche
•
Fortuna (equivalent to the Greek
goddess Tyche) was the goddess of
fortune and personification of luck in
Roman religion.
•
She might bring good luck or bad: she
could be represented as veiled and
blind, as in modern depictions of Justice
(justice is blind), and came to represent
life's capriciousness.
•
As Atrox Fortuna, She was also a
goddess of fate
•
Her father was said to be Jupiter and
like him, she could also be often
depicted carrying a cornucopia
