Religion is Proof of Evolution
There’s a terrible rumor going around amongst religious people which states that evolution is “just a theory”. Well gravity is a theory also and you don’t see people floating away, do you? The truth is that evolution is the most natural occurrence in the world. It is everywhere you look, and the most ironic place to look is religion itself.
The basic principle of evolution is natural selection, survival of the fittest. The world has seen a countless number of religions and gods, but at this point in time, there are very few commonly practiced religions left. It is very uncommon to meet someone who worships Zeus, but very common to meet someone who worships Jesus or Allah. That is because these religions were the “fittest” religions and were able to survive through many different times in many different places and cultures.
I often hear people discussing how these “big three” religions are designed to control people, but I have a major issue with that statement. Just as humans were not designed, neither were these religions. They have changed throughout the years, and by adapting so well, they have survived. This is why it is so hard to argue with a religious person. Their religion has survived for thousands of years because it has been tested relentlessly and come out in one piece.
I see no reason to get too technical with examples because I think this is a very simple concept, as long as you understand how evolution works. Try telling a creationist that their religion is proof of evolution, their head might explode.
