How God failed to understand the process of evolution: My Religious Me: Part I

How God failed to understand the process of evolution

My Religious Me: Part I

Everything evolves. Society and individual's bodies and brains evolve. This is what God failed to understand, and what many deeply-religious people constantly fight against. They claim there's no such thing as evolution. 

1. Angels

God created the angels, so we're told. He always thought they would remain as they were; obedient to him and never question anything. But he was mistaken. He committed the tragic blunder of not understanding the natural process of evolution.

Lucifer and others started questioning the way things were done there in heaven. Suddenly they wanted power-sharing amongst the angels and God. God didn't understand that the more creatures interact amongst themselves and nature the more the evolution process continues. If he had anticipated this, he would have carefully planned for it.

2. Adam and Eve

If there's ever been a society that God failed to understand, it is the human society. Adam and Eve, along with whoever was there at the time, also evolved, as any society constantly evolves.

Their constant interaction amongst themselves and curiosities about life necessitated their evolution. But God didn't understand all this. He always thought his lovely creatures would, like robots, do whatever he as the owner said as and when he said it. He was mistaken. So, when Adam and Eve started discovering new things, he decided to curse them instead. How sad.

If God had understood that human beings and society constantly evolve, he surely wouldn't have cursed them so brutally.

3. Evolution of the brain

Religious persons have constantly disputed the process and concept of evolution. To them everything that they see today is still the same as God created. Of course such an opinion is swimming in shallow waters. It should be thrown into a big lake of fire.

People's and all creatures' brains always evolve from generation to generation, epoch to epoch. That's how many discoveries and inventions have been made. But God didn't understand this fact. He thought that the human being will always be thinking the same way as the time he created them.

I know that some people will misinterpret and misunderstand this. Some ignorant ones will simply throw this away. But this is the truth. The society of today thinks and acts differently from the society of 3000BC, for instance. If God had understood the concept of evolution he would have expected that at some point his own angels would rise against him or that Adam and Even would at some point be curious about this sacred "fruit" that should never be chowed.

Lastly, one must state that the one thing that never changes is change itself. The only thing that never stops moving is movement. Even God evolved.

I pause.
