Why Is There So Much Immorality?

by Keith Sharp

According to evolution, people are just apes who grew bigger brains, stood upright, and lost most of their body hair (I’ve lost more than most). One anthropologist wrote a book about mankind entitled The Naked Ape. According to Scripture, God made both the man and the woman “in His own image” (Genesis 1:27). The difference between evolution and creation is the difference between a naked ape and a child of God.

If we’re just animals who happen to walk on two legs and have bigger brains, why should we have any higher moral standards than any other animal? Why not obey the law of the jungle, kill or be killed? Why not mate whenever and with whomever we feel like? Since most people accept evolution as a proven fact, is it any wonder that their morals, or the lack thereof, are like jungle animals – or worse?
