Did Adam look as God planned? or did He look different than God planned?? Sorry I’m not understanding the question.![]()

Breeding is not evolution. Your poodle is still a dog.If it is not repeatable and observable, how do you explain my pet poodle?
Focus on epigenetics.Actually, yes they do. There is only a small number of genetic differences between species. Remarkably small. You can google it, if you don’t believe me.
We now know that NS is a conservative process and not a creative one.You are correct that most mutations are rejected. You are incorrect in your understanding of Natural Selection.
It is vital to understand that Natural Selection relies heavily on the concept of heredity. There is a limit in which to generate diversity, which generally amounts to changes within species.You are correct that most mutations are rejected. You are incorrect in your understanding of Natural Selection.
This is an example of select breeding conducted by humans. It’s highly suspect to use it as an example of evolution observation.If it is not repeatable and observable, how do you explain my pet poodle?
Blacksword, the biggest problem is that while you accept the fact that there must exist God, even with the inexplicable evolutionary “process”, that is NOT what is being taught. Your kids and generations thereafter will junk the God idea altogether. And fealty to God is what made us a great nation with moral people. Just watch Glee for one episode, and tell me whether today’s brainwashed kids are even giving lip service to the Bible and God’s dictates. Our lack of courage will turn America into a nightmare within the next decade or two. We are well on our way, all b/c our quest for tolerance has led us to be silent about evil.No it’s not the watch maker hypothesis, it’s the simple undeniable truth about the nature of the Creator: if God is truly "that than which nothing greater can be conceived, then this necessarily follows. A God who does not need to tinker in the process because He ordered it to unfold according to His will perfectly from the start is necessarily greater than a God who does need to tinker. What’s evil about that?
Correct, there is tremendous elasticity with the genetic codes of organisms, but dogs remain dogs, as we can observe.This is an example of select breeding conducted by humans. It’s highly suspect to use it as an example of evolution observation.
I have a complete article I would ike you to read. I think you will agree with it. I would appreciate it if you read it. My emai address is gcharles3448@yahoo.com–Speciation isn’t even a theory-it’s only a postulate.You can debate the “scientific” nuances of evolution but do not neglect how important the people of the bible are to the creation account. After all this is a theological issue. Adam, Eve, Abel, Noah are NOT referenced in a mythical way in the NT. In fact they are spoken of next to other “more recent” real people including Jesus. Abel’s blood is compared to the real blood of Jesus. Did Abel die in some fake land? Some suscribing to theistic evolution will often say they don’t deny Adam, Eve etc., but strangely they deny their origins, their environment, their family, reducing them to having evolved through a possible simian chain.
How do you explain away 100 years of biological research by millions of people?I reject science when it is contradictorary to God’s word. If you’re saying that you believe that lower forms of life evolve into higher forms of life that’s a problem. If you believe that give me the empirical evidence. When you find there isn’t any then that evoution isn’t even a theory it is only based on a postulate. The wisdom of man is foolishness to God.
Did you read the survey questions themselves?This report is scary. That’s really all I have to say, it’s just horrifying. It’s tough to even believe it’s accurate. What is going on with science education in the U.S.? Who is teaching our children, Kent Hovind?
It’s common that I will run into someone who is nominally well-educated, but doesn’t even have the most basic grasp as to what common ancestry truly means.
These people will say, for example, “I don’t believe I came from a monkey!” This is not… what… common… ancestry… means… :banghead: :banghead::banghead:
Yes. Was there something I missed?Did you read the survey questions themselves?
If you had read the entire thread, you would have found out what people who disagree with you have said about the matter. Most of us understand exactly what common ancestry means, that monkeys and humans developed from the same creature.This report is scary. That’s really all I have to say, it’s just horrifying. It’s tough to even believe it’s accurate. What is going on with science education in the U.S.? Who is teaching our children, Kent Hovind?

And you believe one of the other statements on the survey was more accurate?I saw that is said among those who attend “Church” weekly, 67% believed that God created humans within the past 10,000 years. That’s an absurdly high number.
Exactly.The problem we have is that there is no evidence of this species differentiation happening, nor is there any evidence that it *could *happen.
I would suggest that possibly some of the people who say that to you are just kidding around.
Millions?How do you explain away 100 years of biological research by millions of people?
One thing going on is fraud and agenda driven science. Science is done by imperfect humans so it is not that any evidence of fraud destroys the whole enterprise. Although I would point out that many so called scientific and logical people will apply that standard to religion. But the amount of fraud is enough for me to not accept the mere word of scientists.This report is scary. That’s really all I have to say, it’s just horrifying.

Maybe not but wouldn’t the common ancestor be more monkeylike? It was certain not more humanlike since humans are so vastly different than the brutes with our rational minds.These people will say, for example, “I don’t believe I came from a monkey!” This is not… what… common… ancestry… means…
There are currently more than 300,000 biologists at work. Add in related fields, and those who have come before.
