    The Big Bang and Evolution

    This is simply not true. You obviously never seriously looked at evolution. This is a silly argument that a relatively cursory examination of evolution would dispell. I would challenge you to examine what evolution actually says and why. It is not fair of you to claim you understand...

    What about Christians who accept evolution?

    Hi Bob. This is cool.

    Nice reunion.

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    Um...... I feel myself wanting to become pedantic again. All species between any two related species are transitionals, by definition. What are you looking for? Half a whale? LOL.

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    ???? You might want to look up what the word "species" means. Bacteria are an entire domain of life. A domain is bigger than a Kingdom which is bigger than a phylum, which is bigger than a class which is bigger than an order which is bigger than a family which is bigger than a genus which...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    Um.. just to be clear, the data can be collected again, and the data (evidence) is observable. The formulation usually given is that science is: Observable (has characteristics that can be observed or sensed or measured by equipment. Testable (lends itself to the collection of data that can...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    No, if there was a theory about bloodtypes (which I have never seen) finding new types would falsify the original theory. It would not prove how many there are. All living matter being made of DNA is not proven. In fact, even with the limited information we have it depends on how you define...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    All the fossils from pakicetus to whales are transitional. Do you know what transitional means? It is disappointing that you want to argue against evolution but don't seem to know that much about it. No, they are based on Biblical Creationism. They are quite clear about that in their own...

    Is there a way to show the date and time of posts or posts that are since my last visit?

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    Apparently what is poven true is that no creationist has checked in over 100 years. In an absolute sense, any species that had evolutionary offshoots is technically a transitional. There are many many transitionals known, both major and minor transitions. Most species of Homo were...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    There is a whole arena of science that does that. There are a number of mechanisms that have been identified so far and there may be more yet to be discovered. Mutation, migration (gene flow), genetic drift, and natural selection are the main ones. Other things also have and effect on how...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    His/Her understanding of genetics is correct. Genetically a wing is modified leg Hox genes. Just like hair and feathers, and .... unfortunately for your example, so are noses and blowholes. LOL. No, water is protection from land predators. Hippos used to be fully land animals. Now they...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    This is a strange quote. Natural selection IS a mechanism of evolution. This seems to be asking for the mechanism of the mechanism. It is also strange in that the mechanisms of natural selection ARE WELL known. Natural selection

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    Why would it? It is not mutations alone that cause new life forms or new structures. That comes from mutation AND selection. The laws of genetics don't really have anything to do evolution. They are just about how genes from different strands combine with the genetic material from the DNA of...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    ICR is a pretty poor site for accurate information. But oil does have a lot to do with evolution in that oil (at least all that we have found on Earth so far) is the result of decayed organic material. It is possible for oil to form naturally without organics, but we have not found any...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    Thanks, Chris. I am testing the waters. I am still posting on Topix, but I may just take up residence here or one of the other forums. I am still getting the feel of the system and it is not completely intuitive.

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    Theories are never "proven". That is not in the nature of theories. No theories have or will ever be proven. However, most theories are also facts. If you understand that then we are further along in the game. If you don't then we need to back up. Theories are not something that grows up...

    The Big Bang and Evolution

    In no way does real science refute the ToE. The ToE is the best-supported theory in science. There are four different spheres of observations and over 30 lines of evidence. What other theory can you say that for? In addition, there are no competing scientific theories or hypotheses and no...
