Does the Theory of Evolution Explain the Origin of Life?
Evolution does a great job of explaining how life adapts and changes with time. Over the past century, the theory has been verified by countless experiments and observations. So is the scientific evidence supporting evolution irrefutable? To answer this question, it is first necessary to understand the two assumptions on which science is based. The first is that man can accurately observe his surroundings and formulate laws to describe it (the observable axiom). The second is that every event that has happened, is happening or will happen can be explained by math, chemistry, physics or biology (the naturalistic axiom). Science requires both axioms to function properly. Within scientific circles, the theory of evolution must be true because science has no way to disprove it. When science assumes that all events have a naturalistic explanation, it also assumes that the theory of evolution is true. The naturalistic axiom does not allow scientists to consider the possibility that perhaps G
