You are confirming what I said....you designed your world view such that you avoid the burden proof at all cost
But I mostly agree with your comments. If you personally haven't seen any good argument or any good reasons to believe in God or any other supernatural entity you are intellectually...
I am curious, why not simply assuming that they had wheels and/or strong donkey-like animals? Wouldn’t that be good enough to move all those heavy rocks?
Good to know, perhaps my impression about you and the burden proof is wrong, but my opinion remains, it seems to me that many atheists (perhaps not you in particular) make an effort to describe their worldview such that they avoid the burden proof, and thus “win” by default
well what is your...
You are wrong at so many levels that is hard to know where to start.
Please enlightened me.......Why is it unexpected to find fishapods in say the Jurassic? Do you really hold that view? Do you what me to explain to you why issent it unexpected?
...objectively, chickens and owls are birds objectively bees are insects objectively etc. or at least this is what testable and falsifiable evidence currently says in a pretty conclusive way .
What I said is that terms like “fish” and “whale” are not scientific terms but rather terms that we...
All I am saying is that finding tiktaaliks or any other “fishapod” in say the Jurassic wouldn’t harm evolution and would be consistent with how evolution works and what evolution predicts……………..as boring as this might sound that is all my point which you obviously agree, so let it go , there is...
Well yes all words and definitions are arbitrary and invented
You keep amazing me..... Your unwillingness to admit simple and obvious mistakes is very telling
Even if I was ambiguous (I wasn't) why did you decide to make the worst possible interpretation of my words ? Why not just asking...
You don’t understand the context of the conversation, all that I am saying is that based on how taxonomy currently works , there is nothing that prevents a non-fish evolving in to a fish……………….this is because “fish” is not a clade, but rather a generic term used to describe organism that we...
Sure all fossils are challengeable..... But My point is that tikaalik or any other intermediate between fish and tetrapod (let's call it fishapot) is expected to be found in any layer from the early denovian to modern times ..... Finding tiktaalik in the mid denovian is not a valid prediction...
...spelling mistake ? You making all this mess because I the outcompete function of my cellphone choose the incorrect word and I didn't noticed ?
The fact that you are making a deal out of a spelling mistake is evidence that you don't really disagree with (or can refute) my actual points...
Again we decided to use the word "dinosaur" to describe the clade that includes trex birds etc...
We could have chosen any other word
Why is this so hard to understand?
True but strawman I never said the opposite
Yes it is just semantics........We decided to define dinosaur as: a group of animals with a specific evolutionary history that includes birds and trex but not petrodactils (something with a different evolutionary history by definition would not be called dinosaur)
What is do controversial...
The point is that in principle through convergent evolution our descendents could develope something like a gill, scales swimming habilites and other traits that we commonly associated with fish.
Hence humans can evolve in to something that we would call fish
You obviously agree with this...
...time?
What I said is that some scientists say it. The paper shows that there is such controversy……………….and even more important those who claim that it only evolved once claim it based on the evidence that they see from phylogenetic……………….not because more than once is impossible as @Pogo claims
In the context of evolution there is no such thing as “backwards”
If your point is that humans will never evolved “back” to become the *same* ancestral fish that we used to be 500M years ago………….I agree………if your point is that we will never recover the exact same gills (same genes) that we...
What is irrational about the idea of a man traveling for tax issues?
Ok share those other mysterious sources
Maybe but so far you haven't shown any failure except for
1 there are other sources (not just Josephus) because I say so
2 the trip to Bethlehem is absurd because I say so
...
aja
And where did RNA came to be in the first place? How did that mechanism evolved?
Answer:
Who knows, there are many competing hypothesis
Do you suggest a different answer?
