Two reasons to question evolution

Ouroboros

To be fair, he has made posts in that thread regarding what he holds to be evidence of creation.

Yup.

I think a lot of people, especially creationists, conflate evidence with reasons. They have reasons to why they believe certain things, but think that these reasons are also evidence or "proof" (as they like to call it) for what they believe. We all have reasons to what we believe. Some are more valid or well supported by physical evidence, solid logical arguments, and such, and some are not as well supported. We all can share our reasons, but it's much harder to share our experiences and actual evidence.

Of course, it's impossible to answer that question, not knowing you. I don't know if you are aware, for example, of the growing Intelligent Design research taking place at the Discovery Institute and elsewhere. Or the fact that many scientists and educators, having examined the evidence closely, have changed their thinking and no longer accept the ToE as the explanation for life's diversity.
Or that Antony Flew, famous former atheist, studied DNA and concluded evolution could never have produced such. Hopefully you are aware that one does not have to physically see a Designer to conclude from the evidence that there is a Designer. (Hebrews 3:4)
I have yet to see any real evidence that isn't arguments from ignorance from the ID community. And "masses" of people changing their mind? Doesn't matter. If you want to play statistics apparently 99.9% of scientists accept evolution. 5% in the us identify as creationists in the scientific community. HOWEVER that has been scewed by a massive non-scientific organizations pumping out "scientists" (and yes I must use quotations as I do not accept them as scientists) to support their position.

Bring forth a specific evidence you feel is iron clad. Lets have at it. Do you want the complexity of DNA because that has been slapped down hundreds of times. I would suggest if you want a fighting chance to use something else.

Number one. "Scientists don't agree on evolution. Despite decades of research, scientists have yet to come up with an explanation for evolution that they all can agree on."

Theologians don't agree on God. Despite centuries of debate, theologians have yet to come up with an explanation for God that they all can agree on.

Number two. It matters what you believe. If life came about by accident, then our lives and all the things in our universe are meaningless

It matters what you believe. If life is merely a plaything designed by God for his temporary amusement, then our lives and all the things in our universe are meaningless.
