The Different Types Of Evolution
The following types of Evolution are described:
1. Cosmic Evolution: The origin of time, space and matter, by the Big Bang
2. Chemical Evolution: The origin of higher elements from hydrogen.
3. Stellar and Planetary Evolution: The origin of stars and planets.
4. OrganicEvolution: The origin of Life.
5. Macro-Evolution: The changing from one kind of species to another kind of species.
6. Micro-Evolution: The variation within kindsof species.
Observations about the different types of Evolution
- Of the above supposed 6 types of Evolution, only the last one, Micro-Evolution, has ever been observed.
- The other 5 types of Evolution are part of the Theory of Evolution.
- The other 5 types of Evolution are all theoretical, and have never been observed.
- They cannot be reproduced in a laboratory, and do not therefore fall under the strict definition of a science.
- They are in fact a belief system, taught in countless schools and universities in the world.
- Sadly they are taught as fact, even though the factual content of the Theory of Evolution cannot be proved or disproved, since nobody was present, and these beliefs cannot be reproduced in a laboratory.
If you believe in the theory of evolution that's fine, that's your choice. But don't go around presenting it as fact.

The singularity isn't the source of the light, the singularity was the source of all the matter in the universe after the big bang. It took hundreds of millions of years for the first stars to form and around 9 billion years for our sun to form, the source of our light.
I don't think religion does explain where light came from, or anything at all. "God did it" isn't an explanation. I'm sure if scientists settled for "physics did it" you wouldn't accept that as an explanation.
If the singularity is the source of all matter after the Big Bang. It must have been the source that caused the light as it expanded with a enormous force.
It's not the direct source of light here on Earth though, but it's a result of the big bang like everything is. God supposedly created light after the other stuff, so the big bang must have already happened and Earth, along with life had already formed. Our sun, which is crucial for life on Earth, formed before Earth did.edit on 29-1-2013 by SpearMint because: (no reason given)

When God said: let there be light. God didn't create the sun. God formed the singularity.
The reason you say that God created the light after all the other stuff. Is because you have been a victim of false teaching, or a preacher who doesn't know what he / she is preaching.
A lot of bible believers don't understand genesis chapter 1. verse; 1
Genesis chapter 1. verse; 1. clearly state that: In the beginning God created the heaven and the Earth. And in that order.

Let's just assume that what you say is true for a second. Evolution and the natural formation of life is unaffected.

Ummmm. . . yeah, that is what theory means. You see, this is how science works: First you have a Hypothesis, then a Theory and once that theory is rigorously tested again and again it becomes a Law. They teach us this in second grade- along with the scientific method. The Theory of evolution has never been declared a Law. The bottom line is that the evolutionist has as much Faith in his theory as the Creationist does in his creator. (And nobody believe please that I say creation is fact by my previous statements. There is a lot we don't know yet about a lot of things.)

A scientific theory is "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment."

Out of fairness, evolution hasn't been successful in explaining the origin of life or the differentiation of species, so something else is going on at the same time, some sort of formative causation according to ideal forms.
So I think it's BOTH evolution AND creation by intelligent design.

My ego would of course like to think I am from a slightly better background.
But until I see a photo of God. I have to use my brain and go with the obvious.

The spirit and the qualia of our human experience tells me otherwise.
What to you is "the obvious".. ? Curious.

Evolution is a flawed theory which is accepted as fact.

A scientific theory is "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment".
Scientists create scientific theories from hypotheses that have been corroborated through the scientific method, then gather evidence to test their accuracy. As with all forms of scientific knowledge, scientific theories are inductive in nature and do not make apodictic propositions; instead, they aim for predictive and explanatory force.
