I noted that I did not use the word "proof", which you didn't like, in my SECOND post. As for Darwin's book and theory, I am quite certain I know it as well (probably much better) than you. I also know the other side. You state there is ample 'support' for the theory. However, we all know (assuming you are, indeed, knowledgeable in this area) there is nothing in the fossil record or visible in nature. I was just wondering if you had found something unbeknownst to the rest of us. Evidently not.

there is nothing in the fossil record or visible in nature [that supports evolution]

In another thread, in response to this same claim of yours, I posted evidence that I think provides very strong support indeed, not just for evolution in general, but also for the specific claim that humans and apes share a common ancestry.

I remind you of this because you are still making this 'no evidence for evolution' claim without having shared your thoughts on the apparent fusion in the human number 2 chromosome. You can find links to the relavant messages in that other thread by scrolling up to message #535 in this thread.

Appeals to "what we all know" so often are just begging the question.

  1. We don't all know that there's nothing in the fossil record.
  2. We don't all know there's nothing visible in nature.
  3. Some of us even think that there are 29+ Lines of Evidence Pointing to Evolution.
I was just wondering if you had found something unbeknownst to the rest of us. Evidently not.

I think you're confusing being pig-ignorant with being "knowledgeable."
