species, and a survival tactic, we make things up to comfort ourselves
in difficult times 5) As a complex societal
species, we create commonalities and «traditions» with others
in our clan / tribe / community 6) These «traditions» result
in security, trust, and strong relationships that make the collective more able to survive than the individual 7) These
common beliefs also act as a means of numbing the brain to questions and concerns without legitimate or tangible answers 8) Religion is simply a survival mechanism 9) When we die, we simple «are not alive» anymore.

Other indications of evolution are too numerous to actually list
in full, but a few might be the clear genetic distinction between Neanderthals and modern man; the overlapping features of hominid and pre-hominid fossil forms; the progressive order of the fossil record (that is, first fish, then amphibians, then reptiles, then mammals, then birds; contradicting the Genesis order and all flood models); the phylogenetic relationships between extant and extinct
species (including distributions of parasitic genetic elements like Endogenous Retroviruses); the real time observations of speciation
in the lab and
in the wild; the real time observations of novel functionality
in the lab and wild (both genetic, Lenski's E. coli, and organsimal, the Pod Mrcaru lizards); the observation of convergent evolution defeating arguments of
common component creationism (new world v. old world vultures for instance); and... well... I guess you get the picture.
