I know people debate between Intelligent design and how this is all BS but what about giving this feature of Evolution like in the movie Terminator genesis. The AI "Skynet" can evolve at much faster rate than an ordinary human. Making evolution possible seems to me requires some brainpower.
Update:Your insults are your inability to answer this question. Something Atheist used to accuse religious people. Athiest often said when religious people don't have answers; they resort to personal attacks.
I had no intention of hurting or converting an Atheist when I asked this question. I was just curious about your mindset. All I can conclude from this horrible experience that the Atheist mind filled with garbage and hate. What a waste of time talking to a bunch of animals.

You have a very large misconception of evolution.
In a nutshell, evolution is caused by a malfunction in DNA due to its error-prone replication system which in turn, causes small or large mutations in biological offspring. These mutated offspring are then filtered by Natural Selection through miscarriage, starvation, disease or sexual avoidance. Successful evolution occurs when a mutation evades Natural Selection's Blender of Death and goes on to reproduce an increasing population of itself.
Most of these evolutionary mutations come about when a species is being pulverized by something - be it the weather or a new invasive predator. The shrinking populations make inbreeding corruption rates significantly higher thus causing mutation to skyrocket. This high rate of mutation causes better chances for evolutionary adaptation at the expense of death, debilitation and disease which Natural Selection happily destroys into oblivion. The failed lines of genetic experimentation are what we see on the charts as extinctions. The lines that continue on are what we see as transitionals - mutations that produced a survival advantage. Our own human lineage evolved from such an accident - the accidental fusion of chromosomes 2p and 2q in the offspring of an ancient primate that is now extinct.
Many people think that mutations are only harmful but this is false. Human males for example, are being born with an entire extra chromosome called XYY syndrome. Its not fatal and causes no diseases. It only causes increased growth velocity in boys and an enhanced stature and can be found in professional athletes who do not even know they have it. It is living proof that added complexity can arise from erroneous mutations in DNA transcriptions.
Evolution does not mean "development" or "improvement". Evolution is only about "change" - for better or for worse - it doesn't matter because its blind. Sometimes a species evolves a certain trait that later causes its extinction like the desert chamelion that evolved a bright red spot which attracted more sexual partners thus overtaking the population - an evolutionary success. However, it later attracted the eyes of something else - the desert falcon - and now they are all extinct.
Evolution became a discovered fact of nature when we uncovered DNA's error-prone replication system and continues to yield expected results such as this: http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2012/01/evolutio...
I love this question and I'm sorry to see it degenerate into insults. It is the nature of all life to evolve. Living things don't seem to consciously or purposely evolve as individuals but simultaneously as if they were actually one. It's so amazingly beautiful, while simultaneously filled with suffering and death. It's no wonder you see God in it. You have no need to be angry at anyone pointing out that a deity is not required in the process. But you really do yourself a disservice by letting that anger distract you from the wonder.
I'm grateful for your question because of that wonder and I wish to return the favor by suggesting you focus on it. I am.
The difficulty here is that you feel robbed without a deity giving meaning to all this beautiful ugly joyous suffering. Bereft. I understand that. That's a blinding need.
My IQ is 137 and I'm a Christian. I actually had a vision of heaven yesterday. I saw my mansion and I had several swimming pools around it.
It's hard to respond logically to a question that's complete nonsense.
None of what you said makes any sense.
Nope. Why should it?
Shhh... give them some credit. It takes amazing faith to believe everything came from nothing for no reason.
Atheists do not believe in gods. That's it. Atheism has nothing to do with science and vice versa.
Evolution is science and is accepted by theists and atheists alike including all the mainstream Christian religions.
Good grief. Why would evolution require an intelligence? Just give me one legitimate reason.
What you write makes no sense.
The AI "Skynet" does not evolve. It changes, but that change is not in any way related to what biologists call evolution. That movie is not related to reality, it is just fiction.
Individuals do not evolve. They get born with their DNA, they die with the same set of DNA. Mutations do change DNA, but mutations affect only single cells in them. When the DNA in a cell in my left hand or a hundred different cells in my leg gets changed, that has no effect at all. Genetically individuals stay the same from birth to death.
Evolution needs change and it needs inheritable change. Mutations change DNA. There are mutations that can be inheritable, even though they affect only a single cell. Namely those mutations that happen in an egg or a sperm or an egg producing or sperm producing cell.
When a mutation occuone of these cells, and that cells gets to form a new human, then the genetic variation appears in each and every cell of that new human, and likely in half of its offspring.
Your question shows that you have no idea of how what evolution is and how it happens.
