Transitional fossils

You have summarized correctly. Most of what I wrote is in the form of questions my friend, the statements I made are basic biology and geology. I've never represent myself as a biologist or geologist, unlike many atheist on this site that claim knowledge of God that no one has.

So far the fossils have shown nothing of the sort, let lone proved in any way that evolution is viable.

You may have jumped the gun and given a conclusion that would be expected from someone with at least a degree in the area. Or no?

Unfortunately, your "basic" understanding of biology and geology are insufficient here.

I note that you didn't really answer my questions at all. I'm not really surprised.

I swear as humanity evolves creationists will devolved back into unintelligent monkeys or are they already?

I apologise if this is going a little off topic, but guys, I think your arguments using facts and evidence is falling on deaf ears. Creationists aren't that logical. The problem is they think they are logical. Irrational people don't think of themselves as irrational. To them, Creationism is simple, easy to understand and makes them feel safe and that's what makes it true to them. They don't define evidence and facts the same way we do. They THINK they do, but in their minds whatever is consistent with the Bible is fact and everything that contradicts it is a fabrication. If you present them with evidence, they will think up of whatever excuse to reject it. They only hear what they want to hear.

They don't define transitional fossils the same way we do because they have a very rudimentary understanding of how evolution works. To them, a transitional fossil would be some random modern animal transforming into some other random modern animal, like a monkey transforming into a human, and even if that was how evolution worked and such fossils existed, they will still come up with excuses to reject it. They don't accept evolution because they don't want it to be true. It's as simple as that. They don't want to be a "dirty animal", they want to be an all-loving God's special creation and they want absolute authority and certainty on everything. They don't want to accept there are aspects about our origins or the universe that aren't fully understood yet. They don't like that because it makes them feel unsafe and vulnerable. They cannot imagine a universe without a God because that would mean uncertainty. They've been conditioned to believe the false dilemma that either God created the universe or it all happened by accident.
