Evolution Is Man-Made, Lying Fairy Tale

Evolution Is Man-Made, Lying Fairy Tale You feel it, know it, deep down in your flowing blood No way, you did not crawl from the cold oozing mud No sir, you realize it wrapped quite deep within You have a soul underneath your covering skin You have a kind true heart that can in sweet love feel You hope, dream and pray and from many things you heal Your ideas in life come from a bright thinking brain When hurt you know, you feel that as an aching pain Kindness and sympathy are traits you hold so dear Your mind ponders life, love, death and yes you do fear Do you really believe we crawled up from slimy mud That our earth never faced that horrible flood. Evolution is man-made, lying fairy tale. Place your faith in it and you will end up in hell. Robert J. Lindley, Sonnet Nov 27th, 1971 Note: I wrote this at age 17. I have lived on this blue marble another 52 years now, since then and I still have faith in this being a poem about truth

I was glad to find this one, loved the thought process. Somehow the poem reminds me of one by William Carruth called Each in His Own Tongue. John

Each In His Own Tongue A fire-mist and a planet, A crystal and a cell, A jelly-fish and a saurian, And caves where the cave-men dwell; Then a sense of law and beauty And a face turned from the clod - Some call it Evolution, And others call it God. A haze on the far horizon, The infinite, tender sky, The ripe rich tint of the cornfileds, And the wild geese sailing high - And all over upland and lowland The charm of the golden-rod - Some of us call it Autumn And others call it God. YES, you are correct, I can see it. Robert

Thank you, my friend. Well I speak the truth on the subject regardless if others believe it or not. God exists and he made us. WE did no crawl up from oozing mud . They need to read the Bible. God bless...

As the decades pass, each generation gets closer to Darwinism and laughs heartily at creation,.the TRANS movement gives God the middle finger.! There is neither male nor female. You know it’s a biological fact. They think it’s something laid om us by society. So they go out and change their organs. It’s beyond freaky. Children got to the Trans Butcher. Your poem showed your brilliance as an a young poet..Panagiota

Thank you, my friend, for the wisdom in your comment. Yes I totally agree these last 4/5 decades the world has gotten worse, gotten darker, imho. But that too shall come a day of heaven's judgement. God bless....

...evolution ---> cause - effect, changes in weather, growing old, stones into sand, ice <--> water, changes in the earth, being of time, etc etc etc.....time itself be manifestation of cause - effect...whats the problem?........stan

Thank you for commenting my friend. Time itself cannot create life from dead matter. As is known now many scientists are agreeing the universe is too complex for it not to be by DESIGN, which indicates a higher being created it and has it operating with some kind of plan. God bless.

Thank you, my friend. You are absolutely correct, God made it all is the truth. While it is a matter of faith, it also a matter of fact too. Many modern scientists are turning to that realization. They are seeing it is by == DESIGN== not by happenstance or evolution. God bless.

I just had to comment on this one. Yes, Darwinian evolution is a demonic lie, designed to make mankind ignore the obvious, ie, that we have a Creator. The notion that something came from nothing without intelligent guidance is science fiction at its worst. And yes, I believe dinosaurs existed, that God created all things over countless eons (not six literal days) and that various other creatures such as smarter apes that disappeared off the scene really lived.

I agree fully with you, my friend. Thank you for commenting with such an intelligent post. We have to acknowledge creation. Because we are indeed here. But how do we? Do we ponder by God or by evolution. To me it easy to see that evolution is man-made fairy tale. I do however allow others to disagree. We each how a right to our beliefs. God bless..

In the end, these simple words of Jesus ring true: "Have you never read that the One who created them made them male and female?" - Matthew 19:4
