Well I don’t like fundamentalism just like I don’t like rationalism. I read Darwin’s Origin of Species and his Voyage of the Beagle and he made a good case for natural selection - so I accept it as occuring in nature. He did not make a good case for common ancestry and I have never seen a good case presented for common ancestry. So please do not make anyone feel lesser because they have the greater brains to see outside the box created by the evolutionists who push their own ideas.Look guys, there is no such thing as “pop science” or “major questions about evolution”. The fact of the matter is that the evidence for evolution is so overwhelming you would need to be in complete denial of reality to escape it. There should be no reason for this whole debate, the only ones who are promoting this literal-genesis garbage are a bunch of anti-catholic fundamentalist groups who wanna use creationism as a way of slipping into the public education system and get a theocratic system set up with them in control. Just a while ago the Catholic church did a whole meeting discussing scientific advances and concepts, and they intentionally refused creationist groups to join because the top catholic scientists know it is hogwash. If you have any questions still about evolution, this site is both comprehensive but also organized and easy to read (it covers almost every question out there talkorigins.org/indexcc/list.html)
PS The recent swine virus alone is evidence for evolution
So telling the truth and educating people about the biological evolution of species on Earth is “pushing your own idea”?So please do not make anyone feel lesser because they have the greater brains to see outside the box created by the evolutionists who push their own ideas.
The theory of common ancestry is being pushed like it is fact. It’s only a theory, and a poor one at that.So telling the truth and educating people about the biological evolution of species on Earth is “pushing your own idea”?
So I guess someone who leaves the Catholic church “has the greater brain to see outside the box” compared to the Catholic church who are “pushing their own ideas”?
Gravity is also a scientific theory, but are you gonna jump off a building to test it for sure? And it is not a “poor” theory, there are more than 200 years of millions of papers of research and lab testing and field evidence to prove it. The fact is you don’t even understand the difference between a normal theory and a scientific theory, and you have the nerve to say all scientists don’t understand their field of research?The theory of common ancestry is being pushed like it is fact. It’s only a theory, and a poor one at that.
The one who leaves the Catholic Church is being deceived one way or another. The one who can see a theory for a theory and not a fact or law is not deceived.
I think it is safe to say that, no matter which side of the debate one is on, using the words “prove” or “proof” is ridiculous. It is just not that cut and dried. But the evidence does clearly tilt in one direction.The lemur-like fossil was found pretty intact - interesting - but it proves nothing about common ancestry. Like buffalo pointed out it actually obfuscates what evolutionists have come up with thus far. Now the evolutionists will have to concoct a whole new story to explain their new finding and make it fit in with what they believe.
Darwin’s Descent of Man, or should it have been titled “Ascent of Man” since he is depicted “evolving” upwards. You always notice that evolutionists show the dumb monkey man as dark skinned and smart computer operator as white skinned.

Because a Lemur in a zoo isn’t a fossil.As far as Darwinius Masillae is concerned, it is hailed as the the eighth wonder of the world and 95% Lemur. Well why don’t they go one step further, look in a zoo or jungle and find a 100% Lemur and call it the nineth wonder of the world.
Evolution is a scientific theory, and a dang good one too. I certainly believe it’s the way God created us. There’s lots of evidence in the Universe to support it, too, like how the Universe was created, how atoms work, how the human mind functions, and how God works slowly, never hastily.Evolution is science fiction in action
Gravity is testable, repeatable and predictable. That’s why no one jumps off a building to test it.Gravity is also a scientific theory, but are you gonna jump off a building to test it for sure?

Yes it is, have you never heard of this thing called a “virus” and these things called “fossil records”?Gravity is testable, repeatable and predictable. That’s why no one jumps off a building to test it.
Evolution is not.
Maybe I missed - please reference where we have been repeating evolution.Yes it is, have you never heard of this thing called a “virus” and these things called “fossil records”?

That’s adaptation. No one argues adaptation doesn’t happen.sci.waikato.ac.nz/evolution/NZevidence.shtml

Want more examples of recent evolution? Just keep asking and I can keep on giving, buddy.
Um, hellooooo, Earth to Buffalo, that’s what evolution is!!!That’s adaptation. No one argues adaptation doesn’t happen.
