I decided to talk with my dad. He kinda gets evolution but still thinks
that there is something that drives it. He kinda understands that dna
might cause some problems with people but he still thinks that god
controls it behind the scenes. He is a misanthropist that agrees that
the reason because he doesn't harm others is because he doesn't want the
consequences(punishment by god). When he sees a child with a
malformation or other problems his conclusion is that god is punishing
their parents. For him there aren't good people with problems. He says
that if you have problems maybe you aren't as good as you seem to be. He
doesn't understand reason and facts aren't important to him. Fixing a
human body(getting a new kidney for example) is bad because for him the
human body isn't a machine for which you cant replace its parts. I give
up, reasoning with him is not possible at all.
"To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason,
and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like
administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist
by scripture." My dad agreed when I said this to him.
