The ToE and common ancestry of all life forms did not come from looking at the evidence

Tell you what, RND, as soon as you answer my simple, clear, polite question, I'll explain to you what ToE says about how we get new species.

So in other words you believe monkeys gave rise to humans! Rich! :D

No, I know that humans and all other apes descended from a common ancestor.
DNA testing proves this.
RNA testing proves this.

You comment of monkeys giving rise to humans is another indicator of your ignorance.

i've answered each and everyone of your requests as best as possible. When your are the lone reasonable mind in the discussion getting queried from all sides it's easy to miss a comment here and there.

Question: How did manners evolve? Did monkeys have that as part of their dna?

is it your position that no new species ever arise?

That's hair-splitting frankly. What was the common ancestor? Usually it's depicted as a monkey.

Only by your lying creationist preachers. People who actually understand evolution would never do anything so patently ridiculous.

Yes, I did notice I'm the only one laughing. And that's the irony frankly. You believe this stuff.

No, we do not believe what you think we believe. We've been trying to explain what we KNOW (not "believe"), but you refuse to hear it, insisting instead on repeating your absurd, baseless creationist caricature of what "evolution" means.

I didn't start out yelling, RND. The first four times I asked you, I just asked you. Just a simple yes or no, according to you, do new species ever arise, or not?

Then evolution is a scam.

One species does not form into another species. Again, you are showing your ignorance.
Gradual change occurs untill a species would be unable to reproduce with it's ancestors. That is when it is classified as a new species.
So the new species is able to reproduce with it's parents generation, or grandparents, etc., but if you go back far enough, there is to much difference to reproduce.

Then it's as easy to say human came from Zebras since we share a great deal of DNA which them as well.

No. Human and Zebras share a lot of DNA because we share a common ancestor.

Is it?

[/quote] Yes. No picture of a monkey as common ancestor there. In fact, no picture at all. Clearly shows monkeys and people as descended from a common ancestor.

Do new species arise?

actually we are distant cousins of zebras, every living creature on earth is related to every other creature. Some closer than others.

maybe, maybe not

but it makes far more sense than saying "God did it"

Consider this point then. To believe in evolution means you have to believe (have faith in) it "just happened." In believing God did it means having faith (believing) that God did it.

and eve came from adam's rib cage......

Man came from monkeys! I guess it depends on which fairy tale you are comfortable with!

Is there some reason you're avoiding my question? Is it disturbing to you? If you're having trouble, "I don't know" is always a safe answer.

The fact that you can't or won't answer such a simple, basic question reveals the utter sham of your position.
