Do they believe about the evolution theory? but as far as I know before Charles Darwin died, he apologized to science for that theory of his. I don't know, I just heard it. In general, atheist dont believe in God right? for whatever reasons, and for waht they believe in. im just curious at how will they explain this whole thing around us be present? An organism can't exixst when you just put it there... it wouldn't grow. some one must do something.

Atheists believe that the god you speak of is nothing but a myth, andwe don't need a higher power to be happy in life. We are quite content to live knowing that when we die, there is no heaven or hell and taking responsibility for all the things we do, without giving credit or blame to god.An organism will grow if it is stimulated in the least. so, if it rains or the wind blows, that stimulates something to grow or move.we came to be human because we adapted to our surroundings, and the most successful reproduced. until the one celled being changed over millions of years to us.

According to answersingenesis.org, the idea that Darwin recanted on his deathbed is likely a myth. However, without a working mechanism, his theory has no foundation. It continues to be accepted today for ideological reason rather than scientific one. "The evidence for Darwinism is not only grossly inadequate,it's systematically distorted. I'm convinced that sometime in the not-to-distant-future, people will look back in amazement and say, 'How could anyone have believe this?' Darwin is merely a materialistic philosophy masquerading as science" Jonathan Well, Ph.D in molecular and cell biology specializing in vertebrate embryology 1994 from U.C Berkley "The overriding supremacy of the myth has created a widespread illusion that the theory of evolution was all but proved one hundred years ago and all subsequent biological research, paleontological, zoological and the newer branches of genetics provide ever-increasing evidence of Darwinian ideas." Michael Denton, Evolution "A Theory in Crisis" (1985)p. 327

Your assertion that Darwin apologized for evolution is incorrect. For some reason theists tend to think that is a good way to discredit a theory. It's not. The theory of evolution stands by itself quite well, regardless of what Darwin may have thought afterwards. Here are some articles I wrote on this topic that may interest you: http://www.helium.com/tm/196152 http://www.helium.com/tm/202088 http://www.helium.com/tm/223187 I'd suggest visiting my blog if you are really interested in learning about the atheistic viewpoint.

Atheists do not support the supreme being belief. They are more into the cause and effect discipline. the theory of evolution is just that a theory, something to explain that which we don't fully understand. Some things are just not meant to be understood or explained. for example, if we disbelieve the theory of evolution then how do you account for god? Many arguements can be circular when supported by a series of assumptions.
