Atheists planted it there.

True story, my sister works in a museum and once she had a tour of catholic kids. She went on to explain fossilization and stuff and the teacher snickered to his kids in the middle of her presentation that he could make fossils in his backyard overnight.

I wonder whats worse for children, this guy, or the liberal teachers trying to teach children acceptance.

"This is another piece to the puzzle and there are a lot of them," he said. "Anyone who would argue that birds and dinosaurs are not related -- frankly I'd put them in the Flat Earth Society group."

Yeah it's pretty cool seeing all the birds nowadays with little arms. Take a good look at that sparrow sitting in the tree outside your house. Looks like he's been working out. And all those T-Rex fossils that were dug up... look at all the feathers they found with them.

That is something you would say. I guess you missed the whole evolution part. No wait you just refuse to even consider it because you book says god put 2 humans on the planet and we all came from them. Oh wait no, wasn't it that he put 1 human and then created a second from his rib bone or somehting.

Why is it that so many people say, show us the links? Then when you do they say that proves nothing and will then come back again and say show us the links. It seems that yall want the entire puzzle to be found at once and not assembled over time, you just refuse to accept a single piece of a puzzle.

Because your "links" are ridiculous, that's why. You'll never understand this concept so this argument will forever be in a loop, or until Jesus comes back again. Then it will be funny to see all the non-believers all of a sudden turn into believers.

Mindia, don't be loony. Evolution does not disprove your religion. Bible just stated that God created universe, it did not specify if it was done with evolution, of snaping fingers

Narrock · Post by **Narrock** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:01 pm

My bigger point was that the so-called "links" don't prove anything. If they did then I'd shutup about it.

Post by **Gidan** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:03 pm

So what would be a credable link in your eyes mindia?

Narrock · Post by **Narrock** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 2:24 pm

A. If there were no apes, Gorillas, Chimpanzees, Orangutans, etc. in existence today. Using your illogic... they would have all evolved by now.

B. If they found a T-Rex with wings instead of just a similar hip structure and/or other superficial meaningless coincidences.

C. If humans were built to walk on all fours (which they're not). We're bipeds, unlike Gorillas and Chimpanzees, who aren't exactly quadrupeds, because that means having 4 feet, but they walk mostly on all fours. They have the ability to walk as bipeds briefly... but there is a HUGE difference.

I can shoot so many holes in the theory of evolution it would make your head spin. That's why I don't buy into it. That's why I had to change my major in college from Anthropology to <anything else> because I couldn't take the BS anymore. You might as well give up. They're never going to find any "transitional" fossils because there aren't any.

If pepperoni pizza evolved from plain cheese pizza, then why are there still plain cheese pizzas?

Now you're talking about your political expertise.

They did. They evolved into apes, Gorillas, Chimpazees, and Orangutans, from whatever primate our Last Common Ancestor was, several million years ago (exact estimates vary).

(Variation on the 'if man evolved from apes, why are there still apes', to which the retort 'if Americans are descended from Europeans, why are there still Europeans' usually suffices.)

B. If they found a T-Rex with wings instead of just a similar hip structure and/or other superficial meaningless coincidences.

They have found feathered dinosaurs. Of course, you'll just say feathers and skeletal structure are 'superficial meaningless coincidences'. Wings *are* just arms.

(Variation on 'moving the goalposts' -- keep redefining what you need to show.)

C. If humans were built to walk on all fours (which they're not). We're bipeds, unlike Gorillas and Chimpanzees, who aren't exactly quadrupeds, because that means having 4 feet, but they walk mostly on all fours. They have the ability to walk as bipeds briefly... but there is a HUGE difference.

Humans are partly adapted to walking on two legs - there are still imperfections in our adaptation - the internal organs in the abdomen, for example, and the fact that standing gives us slipped disks and a bad back. Basically we're a quadruped who started walking upright a couple million years ago - the adaptation isn't perfect. In fact, I even heard young humans still walk on all fours, but later learn to walk on two legs! Amazing, isn't it!

(Variation on... I guess the 'argument from incredulity' -- I can't understand this so it must be false.)

*All* species are transitional. If you understood basic evolutionary theory, you'd know that -- it's basic. The only people who expect a half-fish/half-mammal fossil to show up are the people who don't know squat about evolution. Instead they've found whole lineages of evolutionary transitions that deniers like you just ignore.

This is all basic stuff, you just never looked at it with open eyes. The only thing you're shooting is blanks. (At least you don't lie about it though, I give you credit for that. You're just misinformed.)
