Former agnostic, now Christian

Nice smackdown. Some very good points there; wish I'd thought of them!

Zen Badger Wrote:And what do you define as a "transitional fossil"
Since technically ALL fossils are transitional forms.

I actually did think of this one, but only after I'd shut everything down and gone home (I don't have a PC at home, so I need to visit my parents to go online).

Zen Badger Wrote:And all of the supporting sciences such as geology, astronomy etc which show the Earth to be of an age required for Evolution to take place.

A hit... a palpable hit!

Zen Badger Wrote:Another question, where did you do your "research" it appears to me to consist entirely of material from AIG and the like.

An excellent point and one which cries out for an answer. Rather famously, AiG has a page given over to "Arguments Creationists Should Avoid". It's still woefully misguided in its approach, and their reasoning is definitely dodgy, but at least they made a token effort to put their own house in some sort of order. And guess what they recommend as one of the "Arguments that should be avoided (because further research is still needed, new research has invalidated aspects of it, or biblical implications may discount it)"?

AiG Wrote:12. There are no transitional forms. (It would be better to say there are no intermediates between two different kinds. We find variant transitional fossils for animals within the same kind—horse to a horse for example but that is expected in a biblical worldview.)

When even the repulsive Ken Ham thinks you're spouting shit, you're spouting some real grade-A shit.
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.'
