How can you believe in micro-evolution but not macro-evolution?
I’ve only seen creationists reject evolution. Their reason? It contradicts their beliefs.
How can you accept micro-evolution and at the same time reject macro-evolution? Is it a simply statement of "I don’t understand how it’s possible and I refuse to admit I descend from apes simply because I’ve been brainwashed by religious propaganda?"
Micro-evolution is small changes within a species to help increase its chances of survival. Macro-evolution is tons of micro-evolution which eventually leads to a new species originating.
4.6 billion years seems like enough time for life to begin and evolve into what we are today. (After all, humans are nothing but shells to protect and pass on our genes.)
It’s already been demonstrated that lizards of the same species separated by mountains have evolved different skin colors to help camouflage themselves. It’s also been shown that these lizards prefer to mate with lizards of their skin color.
This is how macro-evolution works. The lizards will continue to breed with only the ones most similar to themselves, and eventually will evolve into an entire new species.
Also, doesn’t accepting micro-evolution still contradict many religious beliefs as it shows the creatures created by a perfect being are NOT perfect?
It’s not possible for a ‘perfect’ being to create something that isn’t perfect. To me micro-evolution is a way for creationists to take the easy way out while overwhelmed by the evidence for evolution.
Yet even micro-evolution contradicts their beliefs.
Only truth matters; one’s beliefs matter not.

How can you believe in any of those things? Creationists and evolutionists are both misguided.

As a creationist, I didn’t know that I did.
I guess I’ll add it to the list of things that I didn’t know I believed or didn’t believe as a Christian until someone that I don’t even know on yahoo answers told me.

Aren’t atheists the ones who call Christians illogical? Try to be consisent already!

Micro evolution has been demonstrated in the laboratory, so denying it only makes them look obviously stupid, like believing that the sky is orange or something. Of course, not all creationists don’t believe in evolution. Who’s to actually say whether or not the Big Bang wasn’t caused by a conscious entity or entities.

dude read up on the subject. even scientists are split on macro-evolution. its not a religious thing, it is because there are so many holes in the timelines and the theory that to accept macro-evolution as the rule would be purely an assumption based on circumstantial evidence. until macro-evolution has been shown to be a fact beyond a shadow of a doubt, scientists will continue to debate it, which is good, because otherwise discoveries would not be made.

you can believe in evolution over time and still not believe that humans came from apes, think about it how is it possible for something new to come out of nothing the way they think that everything on earth came from ammebas, yes maybe the ammebas could have gathered and created something but…still its hard to believe anything without hard evidence not to mention that when it has been drilled into your mind that evolution isnt true its hard to not find reasons to reject it, its like someone growing up with veggetarions and eating meat for the first time it tastes funny…

no macro evolution is not
one species as dinosaurs did not evolve into another species as birds
it has never happened and has never been observed
no that is not how macro evolution works with the different skin colors of lizards
no micro evolution does not change the animal
the dna of a animal can only produce what is already in its dna
it can never produce nothing that never existed in its dna before
yes it is possible for a perfect being to create things with inferior materials
your completely wrong consider these examples of evolution not being true
everything is suppose to be based on evidence hence it should not be able to be proved untrue.
dinosaurs evolved into birds by evidence
Tyrannosaurus rex protein proves dinosaurs evolved into birds
