Analizing the posts from this JTT guy, I don't think much can be done towards a decent convo with him...

I'm getting that feeling too. One tends to be hopeful though.

'Evolution? Prove evolution happened. Science says that we evolved from apes and monkeys. We still have apes and monkeys in the world today. I guess some of them did not get the evolution memo. Besides they have never told us what those apes and monkeys evolved from. When you refuse to accept the truth for what ever reason you start making stuff up. Amazing how willing some people are to accept evolving from a dumb monkey as opposed to being Created by an Almighty God. Sorry no monkeys in my family. I guess the monkey people will respond with their usual fowl mouth responses. Come on missing links have at me. '

1) 'Science says that we evolved from apes and monkeys.'

Science does not say we evolved from apes and monkeys. We had a common ancestor, we are different branches(tree of life)

2) 'We still have apes and monkeys in the world today. I guess some of them did not get the evolution memo.'

Who are you to say monkeys or apes aren't evolved? They have evolved. They live in their world were they survive and get on with life. We are the higher primate.

3) 'Amazing how willing some people are to accept evolving from a dumb monkey as opposed to being Created by an Almighty God'

Because their is a strong theory behind it to back it up, where as ID has none. Evolution is a simple theory, God is an incredibly complex theory, especially a personal god.

You clearly have not read anything about evolution and are just yet another in a long line in theistic ignorants. Darwin's Origin of the Species is free on Kindle, its just a 560 page summary of evolution theory, amazingly it still stands 152 years later, believe me people have tried to debunk it and failed. By the way, Darwin too was a Christian until he made his discoveries.

Lastly, take those fingers out of your ears and start looking at things objectively, you might find that the real world is more magical then walking on water.

Indeed, one well known species is homo sapiene,sapiens,a species of apes (primates)--US

(a) Monkeys are far from dumb,and are in fact among the smartest of species.

(b)argument from personal incredulity/argument from lack of imagination..

The guy seems to be a wilfully ignorant ignoramus. I can't be bothered with him.

What? No no nononnononoono101010101110101000010101! Science did not state that. Human beings and primates spared the common ancestor [not ape nor monkey!]

If you still think otherwise, then please give us references to such claims. Credible, scientific website only - no nutcase, religiously biased websites, please!

I don't believe we bred dogs from wolves. If that were true, why do we still have wolves? [/snark]

You have just crossed into "The Idiot Zone."

It's hard to take xtians seriously most of the time but when you say stupid shit like that you lose any pretense of intelligence.

Learn something about evolution and then get back to us without this bible-based crap that you're spouting.

Trying to explain evolution to people like this is like fitting wheels to a tomato. Time consuming and completely pointless!

But it's so simple, just read the fucking book, its free on kindle.
