Is Darwinism / Evolutionism a Science?

Recently, I have become fascinated with apologetics. My fascination came after my daughter and I were discussing science of the origins of life. She was saying that good science must not be based on religion or philosophy. It must be based on science it self. However, theories are based on philosophy either theistic or atheistic. The concluding proof must be based on scientific fact in order to be an absolute truth.

So with all that in mind, I have been reading and studying the origins of life. I have read and studied Darwinism/Evolutionism and Creation. Here is what I have discovered. Darwinism/Evolutionism is scientific to some degree, however its backbone to support itself is based on philosophical theories. So much so that I can't help but view this as philosophy and not science.

Here is why i say this. Darwinism and Evolution is intriguing to some degree. However when it comes down to the origin of life there are only two possibilities. One is accident the other is intentional. Either something came from nothing by accident, or some came from nothing intentionally. Obviously we can not deny that something exists because there is something all around us.

Darwinism/Evolutionism refuses to consider one of the causes and that is intentional. When you study all the scientific evidence to support accident there is nothing to prove. All absolute scientific evidence concludes that accident is not probable. With that said, intentional has to be the answer.

What is that intentional beginning? I know what I believe beyond any doubt.

What about you, are you absolutely sure beyond doubt that what you believe is absolute truth? or is what you believe a relative philosophy? If you were wrong, would you want to know before it was too late? I would.

John 14:6 Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me."

John 1:1-4 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.2 He was with God in the beginning.3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men.

May my life be the proof and evidence of His love!

  1. Evolution is undebatably a science. Your main problems are with abiogenesis which is much less certain.
