I am going to comment as I go along reading your post by the wayNo , Evolution has nothing to do with where we come from.
It simply means change.I don't recall saying something different?
When Charles Darwin wrote "The origin of species" , he wrote it in a manner that seemed quite simple to understand for simple folk.
Most of the people in this world , including religious and non religious , don't even know what evolution is , let alone how it works.Wink wink?
What Charles Darwin suggested , is that life evolved (Changed) through means of natural selection (The selection of the fittest , within nature) from a common ancestor .
The theory of evolution through natural selection , alone , has been proven , but scientists still can't 100% accurately say that all life are from a common ancestor.Nothing can be accurately one hundred percent be said about about such a thing but I'd rather trust people that have invested years of research and actual work on what they have to say than some guy looking up facts at Kent Hovind's site. Not to mention that while evolution does indeed work through the process of natural selection, the "selection" part only makes sense because the diversity is also cause by random mutation cause by a number of factors such as radiation, heat, diet, etcetera etcetera.
I don't follow a church.Cool.
None of those religions are against Darwin's theory of Evolution through natural selection.
But they are against his philosophical ideas that maybe all life came from the same ancestor.Sure, but there are contradictions with other modern theories, such as gravity, the earth not being flat, etcetera that go against the religious scriptures that are the basis of all belief in said religion, be it Christianity, Islam, etcetera. We should not be arguing religion, my bad for bringing this up because I'm such an atheist.
There are many animal skeletons that have the same shape as another animal , yet looks completely different on the outside.What are you talking about? Did you get my argument at all? I was merely saying that humans, just like chimpanzees and gorillas, are great apes. I did not suggest any other genetic or anatomic relation beyond that but you seem to think that I said "Humans are apes, chimps are apes, therefore humans are chimps", which would not surprise me because I'd expect that sort of reasoning at this point of conversation.
You think they look similar?You know, I could just point to a picture of a bunch of hominid and ape skeletons lined up in similar positions and counter your argument of IS THIS A BANANA OR IS THIS A PINEAPPLE with another stupid ODD ONE OUT picture.
There are some African tribes that have never seen electricity.
How was I being racist?You probably were not, but that argument could defeat your entire point. You are choosing to adhere to your uneducated hunches rather than trust what scientists have been trying to work out for years. Explain to me why anyone should believe you whose entire reasoning is based upon HEH THEM SCIENTISTS, THEY ARE SUCH DEVILS THEM LIARS FEH
There are white Africans too.I'm going to take what I said back because you are probably trying to pass it out as if you were either talking about albino africans or white/european residents of south africa but everyone knows what you said and it's not that.
Seems like your putting words in my mouth.Hopefully, our relationship will reach a level in which I can also put other things into your mouth as well
It's not a parable . This really happened when the Spanish first came to the Americas.I... okay nevermind.
I really don't see how you believe in these fairy tales that people tell you.I really don't see how you believe in these fairy tales that you randomly come across on the internet, such as creationist websites.
After scientists had just proved that the chance of life evolving from nothing was impossible , Richard Dawkins then suggested that aliens came to Earth and seeded the planet. Watch Zeitgeist , which is an accurate movie.
Richard is good at circular reasoning.Nothing did not evolve into something, stop trying to confuse abiogenesis with evolution! Abiogenesis is the process of something non-living turning into something living, for example, think of this scenario: A bunch of really complex molecules start to form near the edges of a boiling hot volcano in the bottom of the ocean in a completely life-devoid planet. These molecules start becoming more and more complex by forming more and more chemical reactions. They finally reach a point in which that said molecule can replicate itself by taking advantage of other molecules around it only to dissolve them in order to rearrange their atoms into forming a copy, or copies of itself thus becoming something that can be considered by some people living. That is just one possible scenario.
Even though it is a creationist website that I got it from , I did a little of my own research and found out this picture to be true.You do realise that this is putting the piltdown man and the nebraska man, a hoax and an accidental misclassification respectively, together with Lucy(Australopethicus Afarensis), Heidelberg man(Homo Heidelbergensis, which is not even THERE in the scale, chronologically speaking, Homo Heidelbergensis is closer to being the last common ancestor of modern humans and neanderthals which came about sometime before Homo Erectus became extinct) and Peking man(Homo Erectus, quite possibly not our direct ancestor, however it probably did live near and have ties with the population of hominids that eventually evolved into us). Also, the fucking site's name is
jesus-is-savior.com.
Millions of micro-Earthquakes happen each second. Do you really think that a skeleton could sustain it's perfect form and would mineralize perfectally , without the fact that those millions of tiny earthquakes would shatter the fossils within only a few thousand years?What.
Maybe the fossils somehow survived millions of years of cracking and erosion.
But what about the fact that animals (Carnivore animals) would have probably eaten the flesh from the bone and would have taken the bone to some remote location?What? So you mean, a carnivore would somehow carry a Homo Erectus all the way from africa to eastern asia just to have lunch? That's one badass carnivore you got there.
If your going to rely on the methods of dating the bones , by dating the index layer , then how come there have been humans underneath dinosaurs?
There have been fossils of dogs buried underneath dinosaurs (more than 10 feet below).nononononononononONO NO. NO. You are stupid. No. Where in the history of the world did we ever find humans and dogs underneath dinosaurs? Point to any source that claims so that is not related to/authored by a creationist or at least has actual evidence as to how this happened and somehow managed to be concealed by the evil paleontologists and scientists wanting to BASH THE LORD.
Also, I hate people that mistake "you're" with "your" because, did I mention it, I am also a grammar nazi
I will accept that in the trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a chance , it might have happened.I am willing to accept the slight chance that you might just be an ignorant uneducated fool and not somebody with severe mental ilness because the latter would make me feel bad for even having this argument with you.
