What facts show we devolve? Except for religious fundamentalism. Can you provide a source for brain size claim?
It is not hard to find that our brain gradually shrink. Here is the example of 5 seconds search. I have not even rEad the article:
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-have-our-brains-started-to-shrink/https://www.quora.com/Why-is-the-human-brain-size-decreasingIt is not important why. It is a known fact that it is.
Defining aspect of evolution, as I see it, is gradual perfecting of lifeforms.
Thats adaptation not an evolution. It can be as well biblicly as well as unbiblicly. You choose the latter but that is not how the world looks like. World do not say either way. It could be both ways.
One comes after the other, improved.
You use vague language. What do you mean by saying improved? Evolution do not use such a term. They use the term better adapted to the enviroment. You call evolution something that is not an evolution, and that what evolutionists call evolution is just an adaptation.
Descendants come after their ancestors.
And that sentence is actually not saying anything. It is a hot air.
However, it isn't always the case that the newer lifeform is more advanced.
It is never more advanced. Show me one example of more advanced specie arriving outside of the imagination of idolaters. It was always the other way around - the changes was according the enviroment and it was fully reversible. Do you understand? Wild animals can be domesticated for example and adapt and after a while, it can be the same wild specie as before, using natural selection ofcourse, but the evolution says that the evolution do not go backwards. That is contrary to the facts. Evolution as they call it, and that is simply an adaptions that can go backward.
Evolution leads to many blind alleys.
You see? You even stated that evolution can lead to blind alleys - meaning - it does not go backward. That is just not true. But it is not an evolution it is simply adaptation.
Genetics shows the common origin of all lifeforms.
No? The fact that the pig is more similiar to us in genetics than any monkey disprove your notion of genetics having anything to do with any lineage. It is disproven.
So its either you do not understand the evolution, or you do not understand that the things you say is disproven by THE REALITY!
The difference between you and ISIS fundamentalists is that you are peaceful and educated. Your worldview is very similar to their.
The difference between the TV and your message is none. Yes I know the slandering of christians calling them muslims. Good luck with that on the Judgement Day.
Our genome shows our kinship to all lifeforms.
It does. And that link that connects us is God the creator.
This memory is still embedded in our genes and consciousness.
Yeah... some people have memories of rocks... they do not think most of the time.. And the dreams of flying is because we were monkeybats....... Bats that had become monkeys. Nice. I wonder when they would include batman as our missing link.
I asked you how do you understand evolution and you tell me the divinations and dream interpretations. Yup evolution is magical thinking because the reality disproven what they say.
