Evolution leaves you with that major problem to explain.

What major problem?

Which was 1st the chickens or the eggs?

The eggs. Egg-laying critters were around for quite some time before chickens appeared.

Ever notice that only the names change, but the song remains the same? Weird. Like there's some assembly line somewhere that just pops a new one out every few minutes or so...

I have done some reading on Creation vs Evolution and can find no evidence to support Evolution when it comes down to the nitty gritty.

I too have done some reading on this subject and can find no evidence to support Creation when it comes down to the nitty gritty.

Kind of, but some are more coherent than others, even if all of them appeal to faulty reasoning and discredited science. The more recent batch that I've seen lately is far less articulate than some of the previous offerings. Joee doesn't even seem to be trying to prove a point, he just seems to be pulling random buzzphrases from very poorly-written creationists tracts, except that he doesn't have them on hand so he's resorting to memory and it's been years since he read them.

Same song, different artist. Kind of like lots of cover bands playing music originally written by Kent Hovind. They don't reproduce it well, but the tune wasn't that good to begin with.

No disrepect intended, but you really aren't educated enough in the subject matter to disprove evolution with any credibility.

It's caused by wholesale brainwashing of the immature mind. These poor fellows never had a chance.

Eggs came first. Not even close.

Speaking of fowl, are bats considered fowl?

To date, not one attempt has succeeded in proving evolution.

However weak the scientific evidence for evolution may be, it is significantly stronger than the scientific evidence for creationism. To date, to my knowledge, not one attempt has succeeded in scientifically proving that our existence is the result of the whim of an omnipotent being. The fact that proponents of creationism spend more time trashing evolution than attempting to prove their own theory speaks volumes about the merits of both.

No, but that stuff on the cave floor sure is.

I'm sure you are at peace with your findings, as I am with mine. When your time is due, I guess the ooze will claim your body and soul(?) as apparently you were here on a "unplanned" mission. Good luck!

"I say clone 'em. That would be the best way to learn about human evolution-- by studying a new, living "ancestor"

Not so fast! I know a 'closet Neanderthal'. I'll introduce you to her. Tell me if you still want to clone her:)

I've been wondering when the "gold rush" will start on historical DNA. Would it be legal to clone, say, Marilyn Monroe and then raise her for nefarious purposes? I dunno, way past my pay grade. The possibilities are endless. Some of us are walking around with veritable "gold mines" with respect to the DNA we may or may not carry. Generally, if not necessarily specifically, this DNA information is worth untold millions. Should I be able to make money, because I had the wisdom and foresight to have good ancestors?

As for me, I prefer to believe I am the product of divine planning, put on this orb to meet certain criteria and destined to do further work for the Lord in eternity.

So, basically, your entire sense of self-worth is based upon belief in a few non-scientifically or historically supported chapters in a book.

You know, afro-centrists claim that, despite evidence to the contrary, all of western civilization is based on concepts and technology stolen from a mythic African civilization. By your lights, they might be right.

In fact, in todays world, the evolution theory…

It has long been referred to as “evolution science”, about the only people who continue to use the term “theory” are those ignorant of the science.

That's exactly what I have been saying. There is no valid evidence of Evolution.

There is also no valid evidence for religious Creationism. Why should you demand harder evidence for science than for Creationism?
I personally believe that the Earth was formed when the Great Turtle rose from the primordial chaos. It‘s as good as any other religious genesis.
