At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

If it does, then you should either be very disappointed or very afraid.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Someone (may have been Gould, I'm not sure) explained the non-difference between micro- and macroevolution like this:
Suppose you close your eyes and walk ten steps. When you open your eyes, the scene around you will appear largely the same. There will be a few tiny differences - that tree will be a tad closer, you may be standing on a grassy patch instead of a sandy one, and so on. Close your eyes again, and walk 100 steps. You'll open your eyes to a scene yet more different from your starting point. Close your eyes and walk a thousand steps, then a million steps, then one billion steps. All of those tiny differences have accumulated until your environment is completely different, and nothing looks like it did when you started out.
It's a flawed and incomplete analogy, to be sure (all analogies are), but the gist is correct - macroevolution is the result of accumulated microevolution. To accept the former while denying the latter is to miss the point entirely. If you accept that microevolution occurs, you are implicitly acknowledging the fact of macroevolution.
This is one of the things that makes creationists very stupid people.

Another analogy (not mine) is it's like saying a car driving at 60mph can't travel 120 miles in 2 hours.

Quote:Kids are taught that life can evolve given enough time. This is a false statement without any scientific support.
They are taught that if given enough time, a monkey at a typewriter could punch keys at random and eventually type President's Abraham Lincoln Gettysburg Address. This is nonsense.
Time does not make impossible things possible. As an example, a computer was programmed in an attempt to arrive at the simple 26-letter alphabet. After 35,000,000,000,000 (35 trillion) attempts it has only arrived at 14 letters correctly.
What are the odds that a simple single cell organism could evolve given the complexity of more than 60,000 proteins of 100 different configurations all in the correct places? Never in eternity! Time does not make impossible things possible.

You need to be honest and see both sides of the argument, see why evolution is false.

Unsupported assertions are the farts of the apologist agenda. All stink and no substance.
