As we look back we see our forefathers following many gods, some in the image of men with grotesque bodies, and others in the form of animals. So we see, history reveals that people of the past were obsessed with the gods, just as the Bible states. People today seem to be obsessed with these kinds of beings. Some of the popular comic books of the past, like the fantastic for, also show creatures that are part goat and part human. These entities are extremely popular. This is a multi-billion dollar industry, whether it is collecting cards, toys, or characters that come from the movies. The common theme is supernatural beings, from extraterrestrial sources with supernatural powers.Young people participate by practicing spells and playing the role of demons, then of course, there is the New Age where many methods or therapies are really nothing more than Eastern metaphysical beliefs that are being introduced into society, even to children. One just needs to look at books like Harry potter to see where its all going. So what has this all got to do with evolution?
During the French revolution you might recall that bibles were burned, the idea was promoted that we must throw away superstition and religion, and turn to man’s ideas. That was the Age of Enlightenment. Charles Darwin’s grandfather, who was born in 1731 and died in 1802. Erasmus Darwin, was a medical doctor but he had some ideas on the subject of origins, he wrote a book called, The Zoonomia, in which he expressed that through time, life had progressed from lower to higher.So what? you might say, well read on and you might see a whole new side to the Darwin debate.
