    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    OK so you don’t believe that fish exist. So what do you believe a hagfish is? What do you believe a shark is? btw/ do you happen to have reference for the hypothesis that sharks are more closely related to tetrapods than hagfish?

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    Are you suggesting that fish don’t exist? Or that hag fish or not fish? Are they sharks or not fish?

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    I was responding to the question “are these fish.” Do you get the point? If that’s not the point than maybe you should ask a different question. If your question is “is there such a thing as proof” then maybe you should look into the discipline of epistemology. Please tell me what you do have...

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    Yes, they do have to go back to water to survive. No proof of what? That these are fish? No proof that these organisms meet the definition that humans have assigned to them?

    Why do the Christians accuse Jesus of writing the NT Bible?

    Lol, I never heard that Jesus wrote anything. And why would that be an ‘accusation?’

    Darwin's Illusion

    So you are saying that killing and exterminating every single Christian, Chinese, German, Buddhist, English, Mexican, just wouldn’t rise to the occasion for you? Doesn’t qualify? Is of no concern? Not worth considering in your world view? Do you even know the difference between an ethnicity...

    Evolution as it relates to Religion

    Too complicated. The textbook definition of evolution is a change in the frequency of gene alleles within a population. It can be driven by natural selection, artificial selection, or even random events. Speciation is a separate process. Evolution does not necessarily result in speciation, but...

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    That’s true. But it does support the theory of evolution. For any scientific theory to be valid it must have predictive qualities. If evolution is true it predicts that the species we see will fit some form of categorization. The creationist view does not predict any sort of categorization. If...

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    Yes these are fish. Lungfish may leave the water and crawl around on mud flats breathing air while foraging. Another example of air breathing fish many may be familiar with is the Beta or Fighting Fish and numerous of its relatives known as bubble nesters. Betas have actually been documented...

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    Fish are non-tetrapod vertebrates. All organisms that are vertebrates but are not tetrapods, are fish.

    I have two questions about monkeys and evolution

    First off humans did not evolve from monkeys. Monkeys and humans have a common ancestor millions and millions of years removed. That said let’s take a look at the basic principles. Adaptive radiation is the observation that life branches out similar to a tree or a river system. This is...

    Man is not an animal

    Fair to say that we eat out of the trash can. We are the best dumpster divers ever!

    Darwin's Illusion

    I’m not even gonna address every point. Just the fact that you specifically state that you believe poison ivy and fungus is conscious yet belief in the laws of physics is mystical thinking is enough for me to reject everything you have to say. As far as no one inventing mathematics? I think you...

    Darwin's Illusion

    No. Reality is matter, energy, and the laws of physics manifest. It is what it is and no amount of logic or reasoning can do anything about it. So you think earth worms, fleas, maggots, molds, poison ivy, and mushrooms are conscious? Earth worms, and ticks have brains. In what way do you...

    Are men becoming cowards?

    Maybe no more so than if you said “take responsibility” or “do your job.” Or you may have meant something like “quit being a P” or “grow a pair.” Context?

    Can satan love?

    Isn’t God responsible for all death if he is the one who stood there and watched Adam and Eve eat of the tree? If he was omniscient he knew exactly what was happening. If he is omnipotent he had complete power to stop it. If he is omnibenevolent he would put good over freewill. Conclusion, god...

    Darwin's Illusion

    I'm sorry. Did you say something? I was trying not to focus on the mere words. Are you suggesting we have discussions (arguments) without words? Please tell me more about this... without using words of course. Have you ever investigated what 'words' actually are? What definitions 'are?'...
