I read an article recently about how scientists are using genetic
material from frozen bodies to try and resurrect the woolly mammoth
from extinction. They're taking the genetic material and mixing it
with DNA from an elephant. Sounds a lot like the Jurassic Park movies,
which sounds like fun but was kinda crazy. The way those movies go
humans get in trouble and then survive because T-Rex comes and eats
everything.
What I keep wondering is why people so steeped in a belief in
evolution would ever try to bring back something that died off.
As much as they say "trust the science" and point to scientific
evidence of evolution and say that it's a "fact" it still takes a lot
of faith to believe in evolution. And when they tell us to "trust the
science" and then in the next breath announce a new discovery and that
the science has changed completely I find it hard to put my faith in
that.
The reasoning for trying to bring back the woolly mammoth is based in
how well the woolly mammoth survived cold weather. The woolly mammoth
is dead and gone and is not seen on planet Earth anymore except in
dead bodies frozen melting glaciers. They've told us that the planet
is warming for years. Their faith in warming/climate change is so
strong that people are not having children and choosing to die rather
than live. So if evolution led to the woolly mammoth as a species to
disappear from the face of the planet why bring them back if the
planet is heating up due to global warming/climate change?
The logic just doesn't compute for me. Except that it would be cool
and they want to control people and outcomes
But that's a different subject.
