If someone said that they have discovered a revolutionary scientific theory on the origin of man, I dare say you would want to know all about it. If they then told you that the theory stated that “nobody times nothing equals everything,” you would probably label it as “junk science.” Well, my friends that is exactly another name for the theory of evolution – junk science.
There are several reasons why we shouldn’t call the theory of evolution science, the chief being, it is not what most people consider modern day experimental science.
Experimental science deals with observable and testable phenomena in the present. Experimental science is the search for cause-and-effect relationships in nature. In this endeavor scientists intentionally alter one or more factors under controlled conditions and then study the effects of doing so. This is the classic example of applying the scientific method to a set of observations.
The problem for evolution is that it is not experimental science since it is not observable or testable. Evolutionists want you to believe that they can gather evidence from the real world and infer how things work. They want you to believe that they can go back several billion years and determine cause and effect but have no evidence to support their theory.
Evolution, in fact, falls under the definition of what is called historical science, and as a result is incapable of answering questions of origins. Historical science investigates past events. The scientific method does not apply in these cases since when investigating origins, no one was there to see it, and experiments aren’t possible to repeat it. Evolution clearly falls under this category of science and by definition can’t utilize the scientific method to validate its theory.
So, if evolution is not real science then what should we consider it? Well let’s just call it what my devotion title calls it – junk science!
Yesterday, I had the privilege of being interviewed on the weekly Creation Today video webinar to discuss this whole area of evolution being junk science. For those of you not familiar with this wonderful organization, Creation Today https://creationtoday.org/ is an exciting creation ministry that believes in the literal interpretation of the Genesis creation account. They hold to a young earth position and a literal six-day creation account. Run by President Eric Hovind, a young and dynamic apologist, the ministry, has an amazing lineup of free weekly video webinars on a variety of creation and evangelistic topics that I highly recommend you take a look at.
