The theory of evolution explains the origin of life without God's creation or intervention. Why the theory of evolution has become generally accepted is because for the explanation of the origin of the life no creating God is needed. Everything can be explained also in such a way, because the further development arose according to the evolution theory by selection and mutation or the superiority of the fittest. An important founder of the theory of evolution was Charles Darwin.
After the theory of evolution became accepted from the 19th century, universities and museums began to build up their teaching and display contents accordingly. In scientific magazines, other points of view were and are no longer endorsed (peer review).
As with many theories, which are constantly repeated and propagated, gradually in the collective consciousness of the people the assumption consolidates to the truth. Today, the theory of evolution is essentially regarded as a fact and the big bang theory as a logical prerequisite of evolution. The theory is no longer fundamentally questioned, although creationists believe there are good reasons to do so. Creationists are not taken seriously in the established media, their reasons are hardly examined or then dismissed with superficial arguments.
Sometimes creationists are even met with mockery and hate. At Timeline-Of-Humanity we will describe the most important arguments of the creationists and document them with videos. It is then up to the visitor to make up his own mind.
Reasons why the theory of evolution has prevailed in the mainstream.
- Brainwashing
If an idea or ideology is propagated again and again and is never questioned in the media in principle and this over generations, then finally everyone assumes that this is the truth. This phenomenon can be observed not only with the theory of evolution, but also with other topics in general.
- Peer Reviews
In leading scientific magazines, which set the tone in science, contributions from creationists are usually rejected. This is ensured by the peer reviewers who check and approve scientific publications before they are published. It is a career killer for scientists at universities if they represent the view of creationists.
- No research funds for creationists
Since the research of the creationists is not taken seriously, they normally do not receive any research funds from the states.
