Evolution true and creationism is not

In my opponents last argument, he made 4 points. I will be addressing each of these while making more arguments to support Creationism. His first point is that it is wrong to compare energy and gravity to God. He says that there is no proof or reason to claim that there is a God. I would just like to point out that he offered no warrant for his claim He just blatantly said that there was absolutely no proof for God. Well I would like to share with you some definitive proofs that show that God does exist. These are all arguments from this website. http://www.everystudent.com... The writer, Marilyn Adamson, is a former atheist who has written and defined these proofs for God. 1. The Earth...its size is perfect. The Earth's size and corresponding gravity holds a thin layer of mostly nitrogen and oxygen gases, only extending about 50 miles above the Earth's surface. If Earth were smaller, an atmosphere would be impossible, like the planet Mercury. If Earth were larger, its atmosphere would contain free hydrogen, like Jupiter. Earth is the only known planet equipped with an atmosphere of the right mixture of gases to sustain plant, animal and human life.The Earth is located the right distance from the sun. Consider the temperature swings we encounter, roughly -30 degrees to +120 degrees. If the Earth were any further away from the sun, we would all freeze. Any closer and we would burn up. Even a fractional variance in the Earth's position to the sun would make life on Earth impossible. The Earth remains this perfect distance from the sun while it rotates around the sun at a speed of nearly 67,000 mph. It is also rotating on its axis, allowing the entire surface of the Earth to be properly warmed and cooled every day. And our moon is the perfect size and distance from the Earth for its gravitational pull. The moon creates important ocean tides and movement so ocean waters do not stagnate, and yet our massive oceans are restrained from spilling over across the continents. The earth is the only planet that can support life. To say it came about by random chance, or evolution is simply ridiculous. 2. Water...colorless, odorless and without taste, and yet no living thing can survive without it. Plants, animals and human beings consist mostly of water (about two-thirds of the human body is water). You'll see why the characteristics of water are uniquely suited to life: It has an unusually high boiling point and freezing point. Water allows us to live in an environment of fluctuating temperature changes, while keeping our bodies a steady 98.6 degrees.Water is a universal solvent. This property of water means that various chemicals, minerals and nutrients can be carried throughout our bodies and into the smallest blood vessels. Water is also chemically neutral. Without affecting the makeup of the substances it carries, water enables food, medicines and minerals to be absorbed and used by the body. Water has a unique surface tension. Water in plants can therefore flow upward against gravity, bringing life-giving water and nutrients to the top of even the tallest trees. Water freezes from the top down and floats, so fish can live in the winter. Ninety-seven percent of the Earth's water is in the oceans. But on our Earth, there is a system designed which removes salt from the water and then distributes that water throughout the globe. Evaporation takes the ocean waters, leaving the salt, and forms clouds which are easily moved by the wind to disperse water over the land, for vegetation, animals and people. It is a system of purification and supply that sustains life on this planet, a system of recycled and reused water. 3. The human brain...simultaneously processes an amazing amount of information. Your brain takes in all the colors and objects you see, the temperature around you, the pressure of your feet against the floor, the sounds around you, the dryness of your mouth, even the texture of your keyboard. Your brain holds and processes all your emotions, thoughts and memories. At the same time your brain keeps track of the ongoing functions of your body like your breathing pattern, eyelid movement, hunger and movement of the muscles in your hands. The human brain processes more than a million messages a second. Your brain weighs the importance of all this data, filtering out the relatively unimportant. This screening function is what allows you to focus and operate effectively in your world. The brain functions differently than other organs. There is an intelligence to it, the ability to reason, to produce feelings, to dream and plan, to take action, and relate to other people. 4. The eye...can distinguish among seven million colors. It has automatic focusing and handles an astounding 1.5 million messages -- simultaneously. Evolution focuses on mutations and changes from and within existing organisms. Yet evolution alone does not fully explain the initial source of the eye or the brain -- the start of living organisms from nonliving matter. 5. The beginning of the Universe...Scientists are convinced that our universe began with one enormous explosion of energy and light, which we now call the Big Bang. This was the singular start to everything that exists: the beginning of the universe, the start of space, and even the initial start of time itself. Astrophysicist Robert Jastrow, a self-described agnostic, stated, "The seed of everything that has happened in the Universe was planted in that first instant; every star, every planet and every living creature in the Universe came into being as a result of events that were set in motion in the moment of the cosmic explosion...The Universe flashed into being, and we cannot find out what caused that to happen." Steven Weinberg, a Nobel laureate in Physics, said at the moment of this explosion, "the universe was about a hundred thousands million degrees Centigrade...and the universe was filled with light." The universe has not always existed. It had a start...what caused that? Scientists have no explanation for the sudden explosion of light and matter. I would like to mention that this is perfectly consistent with what is told in the Bible. Genesis 1:3 "And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light" Now I know I've spent a lot of time on that, but I have barely scratched the surface of showing why we must have been created, and the proof for it. Is it easier to believe that random chance created your emotions, our perfectly livable world, and that the universe just exploded into being? Or that someone, a divine, all powerful being created us and our universe? Also, I would like to say that belief in evolution is in fact contradictory to science. One thing is for sure: the Universe did not create itself! We know this for a scientific fact, because matter cannot create matter. If we take a rock that weighs 1 pound and do 50,000 experiments on it, we never will be able to produce more than 1 pound of rock. So, whatever caused the Universe could not have been material. Hold on just a minute! If we contend that every material effect must have a cause, and we say that only God could have caused the Universe, then the obvious question is: "What caused God?" Doesn"t the law of cause and effect apply to God, too? There is a single word in the law of cause and effect that helps provide the answer to this question"the word material. Every material effect must have a cause that existed before it. Scientists formulated the law of cause and effect based upon what they have observed while studying this Universe, which is made out of matter. No science experiment in the world can be performed on God, because He is an eternal spirit, not matter (John 4:24). Science is far from learning everything about this material world, and it is even farther from understanding the eternal nature of God. There had to be a First Cause, and God was (and is) the only One suitable for the job. Now, my opponent has said that Scientists have determined the age of the universe to be billions of years old, and that fossils have been dated back farther. Before I refute this claim, I would like to say that the Pro has the burden to prove that what he says is true. I can claim that there is scientific evidence that we are ruled by a race of aliens, but until I offer evidence, there is no reason to believe me. So, you should disregard my opponent's claims of "Scientific evidence" until he actually offers some. Once my opponent provides actual scientific evidence that he thinks supports his case, I will happily refute it. But until then, all he has done is make an unwarranted claim, and you as the voter have no reason to believe him. Now, over the course of this argument I have shown you that logically, there is absolutely no reason to believe that we were created by some random chance called evolution. The perfection of our universe could only come from one thing, a creator. The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Now for an evolutionist, this provides a serious problem. They believe either that there was eternal matter, or that it just popped into existence. In essence, this is how evolutionists believe the universe was made. In the beginning, there was nothing, then nothing exploded and created everything. Here is the view of creationists. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. I'll leave it up to you to decide which is more logical.
