What excuse do you have for not seeing what's right in front of you? Every one of these guys is talking outside their field of expertise. It's like my radiologist father-in-law spouting faux authoritative opinions about someone's mental health.

Not one paleontologist amongst them, precious few related fields like biology and geology. Plenty of assistant professors of chemistry and philosophy though.

You do realize that only  part of the list . And it's a hell of a lot more then his list . Plus my organization list has geologists so I hope your joking .

That seems to be a common problem in all ancient religions.  As soon as the specific deity  gets things going he finds out that he screwed up and then goes on a killing spree.

Making shit up is the prime requirement for clergy.

3. You confuse having the credentials of being a scientist to acting like a scientist

4. Creationism has indeed been around since the 60s and in that time they have failed to make a successful case against evolution . It's not evolution as a case against creationism it's the exact opposite .

You will call these excuses it rightly call them facts .

But I will say this it's nice you have shown your true colors

This is an opinion. Perhaps you havent gone on any Christian websites and you are  just assuming that they havent made a succesful case against evolution. In reality they have.

No they haven't.
See I can make unsupported statements as well.
Just saying things is fun.

Anyhoo evolution is backed by a stunning amount of evidence to support it.

Get yourself some book learning.

And not the rubbish bible some  proper books.

Can you give an example for their best line of argument?

Let's see now, a Christian website full of scientifically illiterate people talking about something that they don't know and wish not to be true, versus peer reviewed journals and labs that use the theory of evolution to make solid testable predictions and real life useful applications such as medicine.

I think I will give more credence to the latter.

No it's you who is assuming that i have not gone to any CREATIONIST websites .And your opinion they have made a case . I have and they have failed to make any real progress or any real case. All the do is  push the same tired debunked nonsense over and over . Sorry to burst your bubble.

The more I watch people post nonsense about human beings "evolving" the more nauseous I get. The theory of evolution has Been proven impossible repeatedly over the years, yet people in this forum cling to it anyway because without it the only plausible alternative is creation, and that of course is unthinkable. In case you haven't heard of it, there is a global organization of creation scientists that has been around since the 1960s and their website is:

https://creationresearch.org

As you will see this global organization has a ton of articles from its scientists available for download which absolutely DESTROY the theory of evolution. Let's see, I wonder what the excuses will be now on why we should dismiss the findings of all of these scientists????

I typically regard those who reject the evidence for evolution by natural selection as deluded fools whose opinions aren't worth the pixels used to convey them to me.

Step away from the PBR, sober up, and let's have an adult conversation.
