thats great :D


just like to add that dont look at evolution as linear, its alot more like the old tree branch. An easy way to think of it is to look at the many different breeds of domestic dogs, theres many many breeds that all were bred from Wolves yet Wolves still exist along side these breeds.

Monkey was just an example, plus it is an more common misconception, as we share 99% of our DNA with a banana.

It's more like 50%. Chimps and humans share around 98.7%.


After a bit of googling it is indeed about 50% so much for what I was told in school

I am a monkey

No, I'm NOT! Since I don't have a tail, I'm an ape.

What do you call a monkey in a mine field?



BABOOM

While I didn't watch the video, I believe it's all bull.

It's the only theory that's being taught as fact. But I don't blame too many people.

According to the evolutionary chain, fish have pretty much come from nowhere. The fish then go on to become amphibians. What changes are needed for a fish to become an amphibian? A pelvis. There are no fossil records to show how a fish grew a pelvis to be a frog. Also, the skull has to change. In addition, in the forming of amphibians, evolution requires fish fins to become jointed limbs with wrists and toes, accompanied by major alterations in muscles and nerves. Gills must change to lungs. In fish, blood is pumped by a two-chambered heart, but in amphibians by a three-chambered heart. I don't believe it! :banghead:

Now, amphibians to reptiles. The most difficult thing is the origin of the shelled egg. Because amphibians lay jelly eggs. Eggs a fertilised externally, for amphibians, but internally for reptiles. This is where umpalumpa evolved. :D I could also tell you what is the difference about the inside of a shelled egg, and the inside of a jelly egg.

Let's go reptiles to birds. Reptiles are cold blooded, birds are warm blooded. That turns out to be one of the puzzling mysteries of evolution. Back to eggs. Fish and amphibian eggs, excrement waste outside of the shell as soluble urea. But this would kill a bird inside it's egg shell. Hmmm... :yes: And feathers. You ever looked at feathers under a microscope? How about the bone structures required for it to fly? What about the awesome eyesight of a bird?

Reptiles to mammals: The very name “mammal” points up one big difference: the existence of mammary glands that give milk for the young, which are born alive. Reptilian legs are anchored at the side of the body so that the belly is on or very near the ground. But in mammals the legs are under the body and raise it off the ground. What about teeth?

Now, a man is a mammal. But we have a far more complex brain.

It doesn't surprise me that many people resort to evolution. Religions make God seem unreachable. Look at the clothes the priests wear, the music they play, how ... err... different the churches look. It's like stepping into a wierd and whacky world.

Evolution is a cop-out.

Hey, you have to have someone against evolution on this site, and in this conversation to be a duplex conversation. :yes: Go ahead. Challenge me! :)

Hmm lets see first you discredit everyone else's belief in evolution and then ask too be challenged as if your opinion or outlook is right/superior or the absolute truth and should NOT be questioned?? :rolleyes:

Hammy go back to school, look around and you will see in your own country egg laying mammals and marsupials which are mammals yet are different again from placental mammals. :rolleyes:

evolution is proven by the fossil record and also as Tex has pointed out by DNA studies. Also its funny you brought up birds, since the late 90s they have discovered the link between birds and theropod dinosaurs with the latter having feathers. also guess what they have an upright gait. Feathers suggest theropod dinosaurs atleast were warm blooded.

Hammy, I strongly recommend that you educate yourself in more detail about evolution and biology in general. That way we won't have to read your creationist-inspired poppycock anymore. This is the more a shame as you live in Australia, the home of one of the most fascinating species with regard to evolution: the platypus.

The fossil record doesn't show anything of the sort! If the fossil record was accurate, it would show animals making gradual changes into new kinds, over time. Darwin himself said, that if numerous species have really started into life at once, then this would be fatal to the evolution theory.

Whereas, if the Genesis account were true, you wouldn't see anything of the such. Because God created animals, "according to their kind."

In the first billion years or so of life, there is very little evidence to suggest much progress in multi-celled organisms. But then, come the Cambrian period. Every sort of skeletonised creature came to be living in our murky waters. And that happened over 10 million years! And that's, like, 1% of the time used before in the evolving multi-celled organisms.

And in regards to the platypus, it doesn't prove evolution. It has fur like an otter’s, a beak like a duck’s, spurs like a rooster’s, and webbed feet with claws. It lays eggs like a reptile but yet it has mammary glands like a mammal. So how does it prove evolution? What is it evolving into? Or could we say that it was uniquely created so that it could live in it's own habitat?

Or just watch more of the NGC channel right!! Hammy08 I am by no mean's try to discredit you personaly or attack you but man oh man evolution is a huge can of worms in which opinions vary greatly. So in closing you offered, no actually you enforced, your beliefs upon everyone here so please do not take our rebuttal's personaly as we have our own opinion ok? :wink::wink:

Sounds like you just answered your own question?????????????

if you discount the fossil record you obviously have no idea what youre talking about :hehe: you call evolution a cop out well im sorry to say its alot easier to just say "awww god made it that way", "ummmm im not sure it must be gods creation" To understand evolution requires a brain, to believe in something that cannot be proven ie religion requires stupidity.

Shrub peoples belief in religion should not be deemed as requireing stupidity. My only meaning is I believe in God and Jesus Christ but I dont think I'm stupid, oh crap I opened another can of worm's, my bad! :hehe:
