Evolution in action

RE: Evolution in action
(May 5, 2012 at 8:46 pm)DeeTee Wrote: Apples and Oranges. We can feel, experience, fight gravity

But can you explain the gravitational attraction between two bodies? This is what gravitational theory does. It explains, for example, why the moon revolves around the Earth and not the sun. Despite the fact that the sun is much larger than the earth and has a far higher gravitational pull. Gravitational Theory is not just about falling objects. The hole in your scientific knowledge is showing.

Quote:but you have nothing of the kind with evolution.

Evolution is a far more proven theory than gravitational theory. So maybe you're right. It may be an apples and oranges comparison.

Quote: it is an absurd comparison as everyone experiences gravity

BZZZZTTT!!! Again, gravitational theory is not about "experiencing gravity".

Quote: while only an elite few declare there is such a thing as evolution.

What a pile of bullshit. Evolution is accepted by practiaclly everyone in the scientific community. Well, except maybe for the "scientists" who work at AIG, the Discovery Institute or any organization with "Creation" in its name.

Quote:Evolutionists make incredible claims yet they cannot or refuse to put up real evidence to support their theory.

Apparently, you've never been to a Natural History museum, read a scholarly journal, attended a scientific symposeum or been to a library.

Quote:Saying it more than once makes it seem lik eyou are trying to comvince yourself not others.

Uh... I'm not trying to "comvince" (sic) anyone. I'm just responding to the bullshit you're trying to pass off as the truth.

Quote:You do not have transitional fossils as NO ONE has ever observed the actual transition.

What an asinine comment. Do we need to have observed a murder to figure out what happened? NO! WE LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE! Like I said, we don't even need fossils to know that evolution has occurred. It's a bonus that we have them at all. And despite what you keep (wrongly) repeating, there are transitional fossils. Please go to a museum!

Quote: ALll you have is conjecture supported by baseless declaration.

If you're referring to the Babble, I'd say you're correct.

Quote:Oh so you change the rules when you are required to meet them. Won't fly. If you cannot observe it then it is NOT scientific and you have provided key testimony that evolution is not science.

Wow! Way to twist things around! We find a house that has burned to the ground. But no one saw it burn. I guess it would be unscientific to determine that the house caught fire.

Quote:if you do not observe it how do you know it actually took place

If you didn't observe it, how do you know your deity created the Earth and the universe?


Quote:Sorry but that is hypocrisy and that disqualifies evolution from existence and science.

ROFLOL

Quote:You mean to tell me that the ancients could measure the circumference of the globe, chart the stars, build structures to perfection, grow crops, build cities yet could not observe the world around them?

Sure, they could observe the world around them. But they couldn't explain any of it. They didn't know what the stars are. They didn't know what caused the sun to shine. They didn't know what caused disease. In short, they were ignoramuses concerning much of science.

Quote:If evolution were true, there would be no reason for any creation story to exist.

What kind of stupid assertion is this? Creation stories exist because people had no idea where people (or any creature) came from. So they invented outlandish stories to explain it.

Quote:I would be careful there, you do not know that

I think I'm pretty safe in saying that ancient people had no idea how to perform an organ transplant.

Quote: and since I do know how ancient medicine and dentistry was done you are way out on a limb.

Yes, some ancient cultures performed brain surgery and dental work. So what? Like I said, modern medicine has no ancient foundation for organ transplants.

Quote: Read the book 'Science and Secrets of Early Medicine by Jorgen Thorwald. You would be surprised at what the ancients knew and did medically.

You should read the book "The Greatest Show on Earth". You would be surprised at how much evidence there is for evolution.

Quote:Really?


Yeah, really. The ancients had no clue what caused volcanoes to erupt, what caused earthquakes, the tides, storms, lightning, etc. They ascribed everything to the actions of various gods.

Quote: And you were there to prove this true?

I don't need to have been there.

Quote:The ancient Greeks had their own computer

Oh, yeah! The Zeus1000.

Quote: you really peg the ancients to being really dumb

I didn't say the ancients were "dumb". I said they were ignorant of the world around them. Big difference. On the other hand, anyone who has access to modern science and runs around proclaiming there is no evidence for evolution.... well, that person is either willfully ignorant or dumb.

Quote: and you are so far wrong it is laughable.

Kind of like how so far wrong you are vis-a-vis evolution.

Quote:Were you by any chance home schooled?

Quote:Going to the insult just removes any credibility you thought you had.

Intersting that you think it's an insult to ask if someone was home schooled. I also notice you didn't answer the question.

Quote:The Bible never taught the world was flat or the center of the universe.

I didn't say the Babble taught that the world was flat or the center of the universe. I said the people who wrote the Babble thought the Earth was flat and the center of the universe.

Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
