ooman: First Nigerian i know to claim deism. You got evolution right, most of which you googled. Anyway, since you are a deist. Let me just tell you how the universe started, since that is the only reason you doubt atheism.

The universe started when a chaotic cosmic egg (filled with energy - energy is eternal, everlasting, it cannot be created or destroyed)exploded some 15 billions years ago. This explosion caused expansion and when the exploded energy expanded in space, it formed all matter including planets, suns, blackholes, weak force, strong force, elctromagnetic energy. After the explosion, the universe was born and reactions started happening in it. It is important to note that the amount of everything in the universe is constant. Nothing goes out or into the universe, so all reactions and formations in it are totally spontaneous. No God needed

When the earth first formed, it was hot and stormy, there was no free oxygen but there were abundant H2, NH3, CH4, N2, CO2 and H2O. This simple six chemicals produced complex molecules of life, the first proteins called proteomes (not an official name yet). The proteomes, in the stormy warm ocean, reacted and formed the first "simple" cells and that was how organic evolution occurred. We dont see proteomes again because there is now free oxygen in the atmosphere and the ocean is not warm. Present conditions dont support organic evolution but evolution in already evolved cells.

I have given you a short version of how everything started. There is a long version of course but this isnt a nursery school, you have to read books and observe nature yourself. Dont just believe what is in the text books, look into nature to confirm. I did and confirmed that evolution is true and that there is no God.

AVmonster: before I start part 2, I would like to point out some issues I have with evolution at that stage in part 1.
How did reproduction begin?
The process of evolution depends greatly on reproduction and so cells could not have evolved a means of reproducing (asexually)..
I'm open to any explanation but it has to make sense, if not, you'll just be fooling yourself
PART 2

The Evolution of Prokaryotes to Eukaryotes is well understood...
The main difference between eukaryotes and prokaryotes is that eukaryotes have membrane bounded organelles while prokaryotes do not..
So how exactly did this membranes around organelles come about?
The best evidence we have right now suggests that some prokaryotic cells incorporated other cells, with their own DNA, into their structure -- and that was the change. That's supported by the fact that mitochondrial DNA is separate from and different than the "main" cell's DNA, and is contained only in the nucleus of cells. It makes sense. If there was a simple cell around that was processing food and putting out a "waste product" that was useful to another type of single- celled organism that was perhaps a bit larger, the larger cell could incorporate the smaller cell inside itself, feed it nutrients, and then use its "waste" output for its own purposes -- a symbiotic relationship. They may have started out as two cells latching onto each other side-by-side, and over time that symbiotic relationship evolved so that the smaller cell could exist inside the larger one, and eventually linking the two together in a permanent symbiotic relationship.

AVmonster: That is not even the main reason I doubt atheism
And of course I googled part of it..I can't just pull out numbers from my ass and expect people to believe it..
And What proof do u have that this chaotic egg just appeared from nowhere.. Plus, according to the theory,it wasn't a chaotic egg but a giant black hole that imploded on it self...The only theory that explains it well is string theory and that gives more problems.. This thread is strictly for evolution

The method of organic evolution you mentioned has serious issues as it leaves a lot to assumptions; such as the type of proteins that existed then, the environment then,etc.. I need more evidence before I can accept organic evolution as fact...

With all your observing I'd like to know how to confirmed the big b@ng.. As for me, I try to understand it then I use taught experiments to yest them...
