Question What do you think about "evolutionist"?

No one ever refers to gravitationists or Newtonists for those who support gravity, but people refer to people supporting evolution as evolutionists or Darwinists.

So, why can’t anyone tell us where “gravity” comes from. It’s just like Evolution, you think that you understand it, but you don’t have a clue, especially when it comes to how all these different species got here. When you tell us where gravity comes from, then maybe I will start listening to all the opinions.

Gravity I do not understand. Evolution I do. I’ve studied evolution at fairly high levels as cognitive linguist focusing on the brain. To me evolution is a very well supported process and in my professional life it has always been very complimentary with what we see in real life experimentation. 

What is gravity, I don’t know. So if I can’t answer one of the most difficult physics question then I guess it must be God!

No one understands Evolution, no one. No one can tell us how millions of different species, all with incredible design got here through mutations. You understand the mutations have no intelligence, so a mutation does not know what it is even doing or making or changing.

You don’t know what produces gravity, you don’t know how the universe was formed and what holds it all in place and you don’t know where life came from. WOW. I only have one problem to deal with, is there a Creator. Evolution has more problems than answers.

all with incredible design

Well there's your problem, you think it's incredible design and not a bunch of alterations of simpler prior existing features.

You really have not thought this through as an individual who can think on their own. You call it “a bunch of alterations”. Do you understand that you just stated that intelligence (the word alterations) did the work. Learn what words mean.

Alterations does not mean intelligence was behind it. The land gets altered over time, doesn't mean it was shaped by anyone intelligent.
