Don't environmentalists believe in evolution?
The world we live in is magnificent. The mountains, animals and plants are wondrous. But how did they get that way? Where did the animals and plants come from? How was the terrain formed?
People today look at the animals and plants and decide they have to protect those that are threatened by extinction … environmentalists!
There are many that think the environmentalists do great things. They perform a needed function.
My confusion about this is; don’t environmentalists believe in Darwin’s “Theory of Evolution,” which teaches “the survival of the fittest”? If what Darwin said is true, and most say it’s proven science, then the world got to be as wonderful as it is because either the fittest survived or they evolved into life as we know it today.
Why do environmentalists want to interfere with what has so far worked so well?
Someone that taught evolution showed me a textbook on the subject. It showed how the skeletal structure of the whales rear flippers was similar to the skeletal structure of legged creatures. The book went on to state that whales evolved from land animals to find their home in the sea. Remarkable!
Environmentalists, in California, have put thousands of farmers out of work in order to save a little fish being threatened because the farmers are using its waters to irrigate their crops.
Evolutionists know, and should inform the environmentalists, that these fish must be evolving into air breathing lizards, or some such, and will survive in their new form, or they might not be one of the “fittest” and should perish, as the science of evolution dictates.
Thousands of years ago, when the glaciers that covered a good part of our planet melted, (because of man-made pollution?) was it the environmentalists who saved the threatened species caused by that period of global warming? No! Life as it existed then either perished or evolved to be what we find today, without their interference.
Just think, if the environmentalists were at work when dinosaurs walked the earth, we might still have the dinosaur around to keep us company. Dinosaurs might even eat the fish that the environmentalists in California are hurting humans to save.
Are environmentalists anti-evolutionists? Are they making our world a better place or do they stand in the way of an evolving world that might be still better if they let nature take its course?
