By the way, a 5-second Google search and a glance at Wikipedia yielded a nice little article about the evolution of photosynthesis, complete with citations and everything. Love me some internet.
And yeah, a 5 second google search can also tell you that the earth is hollow. You can literally find anything on the internet. Also don't assume that all citations represent experiments, go read the primary articles. I guarantee they are highly speculative. That's fine, but don't pretend that it is the same as empirical/experimental science.
God is not an engineer; he is a magician. When he gathers up clay and breathes into man to animate him, that is literally how the "golem spell" is supposed to be performed. Your Bible says that your god used magic to create the Universe.
Some crackpot saying the Earth is hollow and Wikipedia having a properly formatted and cited article are two very different things. Interestingly enough, if you google "hollow earth theory," wikipedia comes up again, briefly describing the concept, its historical proponents, and the ample evidence against it (seismic, gravitational, etc.).
So yeah...the "not everything you see on TV is true" argument doesn't really apply to this. I didn't just dig up the first source that agrees with me, I chose one that was well supported. It's not like I went to Answers in Genesis or anything.
Also, the primary sources seem to mostly involve things we observe in cyanobacteria, algae, sea slugs, and other primitive life forms that haven't changed much in the billions of years the planet has had life on it. That's hardly speculative. We can see these more basic pieces of the evolutionary record still in use today by simple life forms.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
