Human created in Its Image, therefore Human = Perfect
wonderful < perfect
Therefore, this is false.

However, the majority of humankind will never understand how scientists prove the existence of anything from faint noises and images. Non-scientists must accept these things.
This is far different from a non-medical person understanding that e.g. eating high fat foods raises LDL cholesterol. Much simpler.
Evolution is a fact. But what caused cells to divide, we do not know. What caused mutations, we do not know. Why there is natural selection, we do not know. But we know there was no intelligence behind it all, even though why intelligence is the product of electrical charges and chemical reactions, we do not know.
Why the moon and sun are in the just right locations, why the collision that caused the moon occurred at the just right velocity and angle, we will never know.
We are just lucky, to live on a planet that supports very complex human bodies, after thousands of successive events happening in the right sequence.
Dear Curtis
You speak of "But what caused cells to divide, we do not know. What caused mutations, we do not know. Why there is natural selection, we do not know."
The "what causes" questions we do know and can find out. Mutations are caused by changes in the Genetic material of DNA and there are a number of ways this can occur, largely through transcription errors that are well understood. What causes cell division we also understand fairly well. But the "why?" question, Ah.... that is a different matter. It is an enquiry into purpose, teleology, and that maybe we can never know. Ever been with a small child who asks "Why?" to every answer you give him. Endless....
We can only stand in awe at the face of the great mystery.
Hope this helps
Regards, John

Wouldn't that put one side permanently toward the Sun? I think the twilight zone would be the most habitable for our kind of critters on such a planet.Tero wrote:I'm not quite sure a tipped planet is essential for life. But one tipped 90 degrees would be pretty weird.

The polar axis would point toward the sun. The rotation would be what we would think of as the north-south direction.Tero wrote:I think there would be a way to tip 90 degrees and still have days. I dont have a model.
