Why do so many people doubt evolution?

I think it has to do with how anti-intuitive evolution is, and the religious pressures in our nations, and also a lack of science education.

 

Because sharks can't talk

 

Cryptic. I like it. So what is the secret meaning?

 

One word, religion.

People put their religion above reason, hence the denial of something as obvious as evolution.

 

Not all of it. Some people doubt the idea that life resulted from dead matter.

 

That doesn't have anything to do with evolution.

 

Back to poor science education, then religion...

 

Evolution is indicative of more highly advanced beings than Modern Humans .

 

The question should be among western nations why do so many Americans doubt evolution?

 

That is part of the problem evolution starts in the middle not at the beginning. To many time gaps and missing links

 

Evolution starts at the beginning of evolution.

You clearly do not understand it.

Please define evolution for us. Please tell us what these time gaps and missing links are.

 

What exactly do you mean it starts in the middle?

 

Oh, you know, the same that the nebula hypothesis is wrong because it doesn't explain the Big Bang.

This is how I picture so many antiscience people on this forum.

 

There has to be a beginning for evolution to start. Without knowing that you can show where evolution started

What was the first life form and where did it come from and what did it evolve to?

 

You mean those that want answers? Evolution creates more questions than answers in its present information

 

Where the first life form came from is completely irrelevant to Evolution. Abiogeneis is the study of how life froms from inert matter.

Timeline of evolution

 

And what are these questions?

 

That is a justification to not explain how evolution started. What is irrelevant is those that think the beginning does not matter

 

What was the first primate. Where did primates evolve from? What was the first life form? Where did earth come from?

How come we are not hairy like primates if we evolved from them.
