Line 4:
Line 4: − − The difference between evolutionists and Intelligent Design become more apparent when one considers another class of reflexes. These are the emotional, or empathetic, reflexes because they involve [[empathy]] for other people. For example, if you see an old lady trip, you reflexively reach out to catch her. If you see someone get hurt, you reflexively wince in shared pain. God has given us these reflexes to encourage us to help our fellow man when he is in need. The existence of these reflexes reveals the limited scope of "survival of the fittest," which would only imply that you would help your immediate [[progeny]], out of a selfish interest in continuing your genetic legacy.
Multiple levels odd/wrong. Moving to talk, but give me a while to explain my reasoning.
Many reflexes help you not get hurt or die; they are an aspect of self-preservation. [[Evolutionist]]s attribute the existence of such reflexes to the principal of "[[survival of the fittest]]"--those that responded quicker to these dangers were more likely to survive and these response times were passed on. In contrast, [[Creationist]]s believe that these reflexes were gifts from God and part of His protection for us.
