Evolution

I know that a lot of people believe that God created everything. He created man in his image and nothing has evolved. As nice as it would be to believe this, it’s kind of taking the easy way out. If you believe in God, you could agree that God created life…and it has evolved to what it is now. Compromise. My question is this: Before the “civilized” way of life we enjoy now, at one time we lived as most animals do. Raping to breed, murder the weak and injured, and (which really isn’t any different from now) killing anything weaker than us. Now that we have evolved in this higher species and don’t usually participate in these animal-like behaviors, will this hurt our human race in the long run. Humans are the only creatures who allow the weak and abnormal to breed, passing those genes on to the new generation. Will this cause our species to evolve into a weaker form of human? It is just easier to lock up those who act on their animal impulses then try to reform them to this semi-new way of life. |
