Blog Assignment #2 - Hum 101

Why are so many people uncomfortable with the idea that many problems don't have a single solution? Give an example of a current controversy in which there are different factions arguing that theirs is the one RIGHT answer and explain why there is in reality no one right answer to the issue.

People like to have the answer, it is human nature. Most do not like the idea of room for uncertainty. Not only is is difficult to explain a person's outlook on something if it is not a proven fact, but it is time consuming, and especially in our world now, quick and easy are the growing trends.

Creationsim vs. Evolution is a big time example of an unresolvable current controversy. Both make valid points, but where this controversy gets tricky is with it's inclusion of Religion. It is a direct hit to the believer's sense of self and egocentrism to believe in one or the other. Evolution is the belief that the world was made by the big bang theory, and that all animals now evolved throughout time. A big believer and theorist in this isCharles Darwin Those who support his theories are known as Darwinists.It is science vs. religion. And almost no one wants to be labeled a non believer in Christ, but what do they do when there is scientific proof of Darwinism? Most people do not chose one. Like me for example. I am a religious person, but i also see how people get sucked into Evolution. I think they both happened, but that is not good enough to some people. It is hard to fit into our minds that all of this could just be, but at the same time, i do think there is an ultimate creator, he just used scientific processes to create. How is that not logical?

The big bang theory, while seemingly legitimate does leave gray areas. It says, in essence ' well this could have happened, but there is no way to tell if that is what happened'. It is hard to give credit to either side, because there is not solid proof. There is the bible, but to have done research on it, it was mass produced in interpreted by many different people, religions, populations, etc. So is it 100% credible?

There are many different points made from both sides. Creationism, and evolution. If the world was full of level headed people, it would be okay to believe in both. but to believe in one, is to be anti-religion, and to believe in the other is to ignore scientific findings. The choice is yours.
