What is evolution?
The modern theory of evolution teaches that all living things share a common ancestor. According to this view, life began as a simple single-celled organism billions of years ago. Over immense periods of time, random genetic mutations and natural selection produced the vast diversity of life we see today, including fish, reptiles, birds, mammals, apes, and ultimately human beings.
Evolutionary biologist Jerry Coyne summarizes the theory this way:
"Life on Earth evolved gradually beginning with one primitive species; it then branched out over time, throwing off many new and diverse species, and the mechanism for most evolutionary change is natural selection."
Jerry A. Coyne, Why Evolution Is True (2009).
This is the foundation of evolutionary theory.
Can this theory be questioned?
Science advances by questioning ideas and testing evidence. Throughout history, scientific theories have been revised as new discoveries have been made. Evolutionary biology is no exception. Scientists continue to debate many aspects of evolutionary history, including the origins of major body plans, the pace of evolutionary change, and the mechanisms responsible for biological complexity.
For me, one of the greatest questions remains unanswered:
How did highly organized, information-rich life originate?
My Simple Observation
I believe the answer is found, not by looking billions of years into the past, but by looking at what every human being already knows.
Every one of us knows how human life begins.
Every day, throughout the world, new life begins through the union of a father and a mother.
A single sperm fertilises a single egg.
From that moment, an entirely new human life begins.
The Miracle of Human Life
The sperm cell and egg each contain extraordinarily complex DNA.
When they unite, they form a complete genetic blueprint unlike any other human who has ever lived.
Within only a few weeks:
A beating heart develops.
The brain begins forming.
Eyes, ears, fingers and toes appear.
Millions of cells divide in perfect order.
Every organ develops according to a precise genetic program.
All of this happens in only a matter of months—not millions of years.
DNA: The Blueprint of Life
DNA contains the biological information necessary for building every cell in the human body.
It is one of the most sophisticated information-storage systems known.
The instructions contained within DNA guide the development of the entire body from a single fertilised egg.
This remarkable process raises an important question:
Where did this enormous amount of biological information originally come from?
Different worldviews answer that question differently.
Those who accept evolution generally believe that genetic information accumulated gradually through mutation and natural selection over vast periods of time.
Those who believe in creation see DNA as evidence of purposeful design by an intelligent Creator.
The Female Reproductive System
The female reproductive system is another example of extraordinary biological complexity.
It includes:
ovaries,
fallopian tubes,
uterus,
placenta,
hormones,
blood supply,
immune protection,
and countless coordinated biological processes.
Each part works together with remarkable precision to support new human life.
For me, this level of integrated complexity points to design rather than accident.
What We Can Observe
Unlike theories about the distant past, human reproduction is directly observable.
Every day we see:
sperm fertilising an egg,
DNA directing development,
babies growing in the womb,
children born in the likeness of their parents.
Human beings reproduce after their own kind.
Dogs produce dogs.
Cats produce cats.
Birds produce birds.
Human beings produce human beings.
While populations can change and adapt over time, I do not believe the observable evidence demonstrates one fundamental kind of organism transforming into an entirely different kind.
That is one of the reasons I remain unconvinced by universal common ancestry.
A Spiritual Perspective
The Bible teaches that human life is not an accident.
It declares that God is our Creator and that every person is wonderfully made.
Isaiah writes:
"Thus says Yahweh, your Redeemer, and he who formed you from the womb: 'I am Yahweh, who makes all things; who alone stretches out the heavens; who spreads out the earth by Myself.'"
Isaiah 44:24
King David similarly wrote:
"For You formed my inward parts. You knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made."
Psalm 139:13–14
To me, these passages harmonize with the astonishing complexity we observe in every human birth.
Conclusion
Every one of us began the same way.
Not as a gradually transforming organism over millions of years, but as a fertilised egg carrying an extraordinary amount of genetic information.
Whether one believes this information ultimately arose through natural evolutionary processes or through the work of a Creator is a matter of worldview and interpretation of the evidence.
My conclusion is that the complexity, organisation, and information contained within DNA—and the remarkable development of every human life from conception to birth—are more consistent with intelligent design than with unguided evolution.
For that reason, I believe the testimony of Scripture:
"I am Yahweh, who makes all things... who alone stretches out the heavens... who spreads out the earth by Myself."
Isaiah 44:24
What is evolution?
The theory of evolution is based on the idea that 1700 million years ago, life started from a singled celled organism such as bacteria, that gradually changed over time, into different species, which transformed by random chance, into intelligent creatures, animals, apes, and finally highly complex intelligent human beings.
Professor of biology Jerry Coyne sums up biological evolution succinctly:
Life on Earth evolved gradually beginning with one primitive species it then branched out over time, throwing off many new and diverse species; and the mechanism for most (but not all) of evolutionary change is natural selection.[ 3]

Please may I demonstrate how one simple fact, proves evolution is false!
Firstly, scientist and evolutionist are continually changing their minds and views with the regards of their own theories of evolution.
Secondly, many scientist, and evolutionists are now admitting how their own theories of evolution are wrong, who also cannot agree with each other, and are often scratching their head's trying to work out how we exist: Click here to watch video of Richard Milton Shattering the myths of Darwinism:
Lastly, the human DNA, the building blocks of life, have never transformed or changed to produce one creature to another.
With those facts in mind, the simple truth is, no one needs to be a scientist, to SEE, how we humans, and all creatures have NOT evolved gradually over million of years, or from 3.5 billion years ago.
Let's now move forward to my one simple reason debunking evolution!
All people already know, without even knowing it, how the theories of evolution is wrong.
The problem is, not understanding how we humans developed and evolved, is not the problem, because this we already know.
What we humans already know, is what most humans do not want to believe, because most humans want to believe in what is not true, so they can live the way they want to live, and do what they want to do, who love and enjoy living in sin, instead of loving and doing the will of our creator by denying ourselves.
John 3:19
And this is the judgement, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light; for their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the Light and does not come to the Light, so that his works may not be exposed; 21 but the one practicing the truth comes to the Light, that his works may be manifest as having been done in God.”
What we humans know, is what we humans already know, which is how we develop and grow, seen all around us where ever we go.
What develops and grows all around us everyday, is far greater then the seven wonders of today.
The greatest wonders of the world, is the birth of you and me, that did not gradually take millions of year's.
The truth is, truly simple, which is the beginning of humankind, which does not come from bacteria that gradually changed over time into you and me.
Let's do what children can simply do, by simply looking at what we already know, which developed the human body.
There we will SEE, how there is no need to go back 3.5 billion years, to see what we could not see.
Let's simply SEE, how our parents conceived you and me, which has nothing to do with bacteria gradually changing over time.
There we SEE the miracle of you or me, from our parents falling in love and making love.
There we see, how we came to be, what produced you and me, from the Sperm that travelled up our mothers Fallopian tube, who won the race to the egg.
There we simply SEE, how the greatest miracle of us human beings, not only defies gravity, but destroys the theory that we came from animals, who cannot think like we.

According to Evolutionist, the highly complex, complicated, Female reproductive system, did whats impossible, by designing itself by random chance!
When our parents became one, so did their Sperm and egg become ONE, from the complex DNA, that grew into a baby, which was you or me, born in the image of our mother and father into one.
Conclusion!
What do we know?
And what do we SEE?
We know and SEE, HOW the Sperm is created in the man, and the egg is created in the women, which does not consist of primitive species that has transformed and developed over millions of years.
We know and SEE, HOW the Sperm and the egg, consists of highly complicated DNA, the building blocks of life, which has always been complete, always the same, and has never changed.
We ALL SEE, how the beginnings of LIFE starts by sexual intercourse, from the sperm and fertilised egg, which grows in months not millions of years, into the greatest miracle of a beautiful baby.
We know and SEE, HOW the highly complicated DNA, the building blocks of life, has NO evidence of ever changing from one species to another.
But on the contrary, DNA has to be, and is, fully formed, designed and complete, to exist and become LIFE, just as we are told by our creator:
Isaiah 44:24:
Thus says Yahweh, your Redeemer, and he who formed you from the womb: "I am Yahweh, who makes all things; who ALONE stretches out the heavens; who spreads out the earth BY MYSELF.
