The Jesus Freaks Will Hate This

He's still going?

Such stamina. This thread should be renamed The Bullshit Marathon.

Evolution doesn't disprove God, by the way. It just makes you need to accept the creation account is a metaphor/bullshit.

But if you will never consider that being a possibility, you'll have to continue to deny reality the rest of your life.

I doesn't in fact.
I have stated numerous times that a species evolves from it's own species.
The word the Bible uses for species is "kind" they are synonymous.

Genesis 1
1 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

It clearly states that each animal is to be brought forth after their kind (species)

The Bible supports evolution, just not the idea that all creatures evolved from a single point.

This is your problem, you're trying to force reality to agree with a story book.

I give up. I've tried really hard to help you Huggy, I honestly have. But I don't think you're interested in learning or understanding, just desperately trying to shoe-horn science into your book and just deny it when you can't.

I have nothing against you as a person, but I give up trying to explain things anymore to you unless you show you're actually interested in the truth.

Oh for fuck's sake Huggy, not this horseshit about 'kinds' again.

I have nothing against you as a person

Then let me have something against him for you.

[Mister Agenda]

Huggy, if you go with a kind being equivalent to a family, you get a stable taxonomic label that will never change in human experience, unless it goe on a lot longer than it has so far. For all intents and purposes, you can have your cake and eat it too by equating kind and family.

[Esquilax]

The Bible supports evolution, just not the idea that all creatures evolved from a single point.

"If I pretend evolution is something other than what it is, then evolution is what I pretend it to be! Imagination makes everything real!"

[JesusHChrist]

It clearly states that each animal is to be brought forth after their kind (species)

The Bible supports evolution, just not the idea that all creatures evolved from a single point.

Which if so, is why your Bible can't be taken seriously. Because it is wrong.

[Mr Greene]

So won't read a book that would actually describe what evolution is and how it has occurred on the basis that he doesn't agree with the author, so willfully ignorant as predicted.
He then starts quoting the book of Jewish bullshit at us ignoring the double standard...

Cats from dogs - no, however both share a common ancestor as both belong to the Carnivora clade, this being a member of the Miacidae clade.

As for the idea that we didn't all evolve from a single point...
Collagen;
A substance that is used in the manner of a sort of 'glue' to stick cells together in multicellular lifeforms. This is our legacy from the sponges.
It is found in all multicellular lifeforms with almost no deviation (only 4 variants exist) due to the extremely high selection pressure (You don't have it, you are a puddle) making the gene incredibly stable.
It took life a long time to develop this gene and traces of previous genes can be identified within its code, it is unlikely therefore that the gene has multiple sources and all multicellular life can thus be traced back to sponges.

Feel free to attempt more massage of your ego I find dropping facts on your BS amusing.
Incidentally the blatant dishonesty you're parading here is the reason why it has been impossible to respect religion since the ID thing first came up so please keep sabotaging your own organisation for us.
