THE POSSIBILITY EXISTS
DURING MY HIGH SCHOOL DAYS, I WAS ABOUT 14
THEN, I CAME TO HEAR ABOUT THIS CHAP CHARLES DARWIN WHO CLAIMED THAT WE WERE
DESCENDANTS OF APES?
OUR RELIGION TEACHER, A FATHER SOLER, WHO HAPPENED
TO BE A JESUIT, TOLD US THAT THERE IS SOMETHING CALLED A MISSING LINK WHICH PROOVED
THAT WE WERE NOT DESCENDANTS OF APES; IN THE MEANWHILE JUST SHRUG THIS FELLOW
OFF UNTIL IT BECOMES A PROVEN FACT.
DARWIN, ACCORDING TO MY BELIEFS, AT THAT
TIME WAS SOMEBODY WHO WAS ANTIGOD.
TODAY HOWEVER, I COULD SHOUT IT FROM THE
ROOF TOOPS THAT HE WAS NOT ANTIGOD BUT AN INSTRUMENT OF GOD SENT TO TELL US
THAT NATURAL SELECTION WAS A FACT AND WE HAVE TO ACCEPT IT AS TRUE.
DOES NATURAL SELECTION SAY THERE IS NO GOD?
NO, ONLY THAT THE BIBLE STORY OF GENESIS HAS NOW BECOME A HISTORY BOOK THAT IS BEST DISCARDED AS HAVING SERVED ITS
PURPOSE IN A BYGONE ERA. PEOPLE WERE ASKING QUESTIONS THEN AND DEMANDING THE
RIGHT ANSWERS.
NOW COMES THE TIME FACTOR. NATURAL SELECTION IS AN AGONIZINGLY SLOW
PROCESS FOR US. IT TOOK SEVERAL THOUSAND OF YEARS TO COME ABOUT. COULD THIS PROCESS HAVE SOMEHOW BEEN
HASTENED?
·
BIRDS FEEDING OFF MOTHS ON TREE
TRUNKS THAT WERE EASILY DISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE BARK AND LEAVING THOSE WHO HAD
ADAPTED TO THE COLOURINGS OF THE BARK ALONE, TO INCRESE AND MULTIPLY?
·
PIGEON BREEDERS HAVE MANAGED TO
BREED PIGEONS OF DIFFERENT KINDS JUST BY OBSERVING THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THEIR
PIGEONS AND CROSS BREEDING THEM TO DEVELOP FANTAILS, POUTERS, AND TUMBLERS AND
SO ON.
·
FISH BREEDERS HAVE BY PERSONAL SELECTION
MANAGED TO BREED GOLD FISH WHICH I BELIEVE DID NOT EXIST IN THEIR WILD
STAGES. BIRDS CAN EASILY PICK THEM OUT
OF THE WATER BECAUSE THEY ARE HIGHLY VISIBLE.
·
SOME FLOWERS HAVE BEEN
POLINATED BY MAN TO PRODUCE FLOWERS OF A DIFFERENT COLOURING AND SO ON
·
DOG BREEDERS ARE LIKWISE ABLE
TO CHOOSE DOGS WTH THE CHARACTERESTICS THEY WANT IN THE BREEDS THEY HAVE
DECIDED TO ADOPT FOR WHATEVER PURPOSE.
THE POSSIBIITY
EXISTS.
TAKE IT AS A FACT
(MIRACLES APART) GOD CANNOT OPERATE BY FIAT. THE ABOVE IS HOW HE PURPOTEDLY
COOKED THINGS UP IN HIS LAB, OUR EARTH, EVENTUALLY PRODUCING MAN TO DO HIS
WORK. IT DID TAKE HIM AGES IN OUR TIME TO DO SO BUT A COUPLE OF WINKS IN HIS
TIME.
IF AN
INTELLIGENCE LIKE MAN CAN TAKE PART IN THE POWER OF NATURAL SELECTION ONLY HERE
WE MIGHT CALL IT INTELLIGENT SELECTION, THEN WHY NOT EL-SHADDAI
HASTENING THE PROCESS OF INTELLIGENT SELECTION.
COULD EL- SHADDAI HAVE HAD A HAND IN HURRYING
THE PROCESS OF INTELLIGENT BREEDING? AFTER ALL TIME HAS NO MEANING IN HIS LIFE BEGGINING
WITH THE BIG BANGS, AS COMPARED TO OURS; AND SELECTIVE BREEDING IS A PROCESS OF
ELIMINATION WHERIN HE EXCELLS, IF NEEED BE.
CREATING LIFE IS WHAT POSES HURDLES FOR HIM. HENCE IT IS OUR DUTY TO
PROTECT PLANTS ANIMALS ETC THAT ARE FACING EXTINCTION. WE MUST TEACH CHILDREN THAT ONCE A SPECIES OF
LIFE IS SNUFFED OUT THEN THAT IS LIKE SAYING GOODBYE TO IT PERMANENTLY.
THINK
ABOUT IT. WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO INTO THIS PAINFULLY SLOW METHOD OF SELECTIVE
BREEDING IF HE COULD HAVE DONE IT BY FIAT? (PLEASE LEAVE MIRACLES OUT OF IT
BECAUSE . THAT IS ANOTHER SUBJECT ALTOGETHER AND IT DOES NOT EVOLVE CREATION.)
ONCE YOU HAVE ACCEPTED THE FACT THAT GOD
DOES NOT CREATE BY FIAT, ALL FALLS INTO PLACE. NO HE WILL NOT CAST YOU INTO
SHEOL FOR SAYING SO. AFTER ALL COME 3000 A.D. HE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE “VISIBLE” IN A MANNER OF SPEAKING AND CONVERSING WITH
MAN. E.G.
“DONT YOU KNOW ME PHILIP EVEN AFTER I HAVE
BEEN AMONG YOU FOR SUCH A LONG TIME”? John 14:9
OUR EL-SHADDAI WAS THERE TALKING TO HIS
PEOPLE HOWEVER CONVINCING THEM WAS THE PROBLEM.
