Creationists: "Kind" = Species; species that evolve.

evolved yet?

Thank goodness your acceptance is not required
If you want any credibility among other members of this forum you will need her acceptance or some other person with similar credibility (David M for example or Michigan atheist (is he still on this forum?)).

Why? What is the rationale for that?
Well, obviously we are made in gods image... so ta da...

But which of us humans?

You are kidding me right?
None of you appear to have any problems when a creationist suggests a kind is a species. You just love to smack that down, don’t you? However, mine works and you hate it and I am pleased. You cannot get past the definition and this tells me you cannot use your usual tactics to attack me. I’ve taken it up a notch and all of a sudden you say I need your acceptance for credibility here. I do not define myself by what anti creationists think on this forum. Creationists already know what you think of us. Do any of you define yourself by what creationists think of you or think you need our acceptance? .I doubt it. As you are aware creationists think your taxons are full of inconsistencies and species problems and that goes for genus and subfamily and family. If you know your stuff you know what I am talking about…or do I have to remind you.

I have already put up enough info to show the mess that your Homo rank is. Why should anyone need an excuse to have an exception. If there were no exceptions to my or any other definition of kind that may indicate you have your taxonomic mess and genomics sorted…which you do not. Changes will continue in your taxonomic rankings. If we let these researchers loose they will soon put chimps in with homo, as some very well credentialed researchers already want to do. That’s your mess. You lot cannot agree on so much that it is befuddling to understand any of you having a problem with any definition of kind whatsoever.

Look at Auto and the rest..they do not want to discuss they only want to ridicule. I am not here for these sort of peoples acceptance.

Your general definition of species has a plethora of exceptions, many species that can interbreed, yet you have no problem with that. PaintedWolf offered “high genetic similarity” in some reply, yet is unable to articulate the meaning of ‘high’, you do not have a problem with her.

I am sensing bias here. This is a forum not a scientific panel. If you want a definition for discussion purposes I have provided one. If you want to pretend this is more than what it is I see this as your problem, not mine.

None of you anti creationists are ever going to ‘accept’ any definition of ‘kind’, so what makes you think we need your acceptance. Hence your acceptance is not required.

what flavor you got there LOL

neanderthal?


You need to look up newer info Auto and wolf and outhouse..neanderthals are now sketched to look just like you and me. But with your mess I expect neanderthal will have many more faces. Perhaps he will look more orangutanggy in time. I'm glad to see you blindly believe whatever is thrown at you as flavour of the month.

I'm sorry, I missed where I ridiculed you. I merely asked a couple of obvious questions to sound out your definition, and would appreciate it if you would answer them. Thank you.

I'm sorry, new info about what? Did I say anything about neanderthals?

I see you could not go back and debate me at all, at a loss for real answers to problems in which you do not know??? we could teach you and get you up to speed.

You are kidding me right?

he/she doesnt speak for me


You need to look up newer info Auto and wolf and outhouse

I think we are all pretty well educated with me at the end of the train. I dont think You cant get past me let alone argue with any validity with the others.

But with your mess

theres no mess.

Perhaps he will look more orangutanggy in time

no it will not

blindly believe whatever

is this not the pot calling the kettle black????

None of you appear to have any problems when a creationist suggests a kind is a species

thats because its not valid in any sense, we deal with reality.

you cannot use your usual tactics to attack me


we dont have or need tactics, we have truth and knowledge

I have already put up enough info to show the mess that your Homo rank is

NO you have not, you put up a rare view not accepted as a whole and say were lost. I believe your very very wrong again.

If you want a definition for discussion purposes I have provided one

No you have not.





You fail,,,,,,,, to understand there is a clear picture of human evolution going back 8-9 million years. We dont need every piece of the puzzle to see what the picture looks like. With what we know creationion myth scientist can put all there pieces in and the picture does not change.

The sooner you get that point that there is a good reason why we dont teach the creation myth in schools, the faster you would learn what really took place in history

FYI the debate on evolution ended a while back, its not up for debate anymore.

No one will waist time or resources looking in to see if a myth holds water or not.

now if you want to debate abiogenesis, feel free its in its infancy and so little is know its easy for creationist to pick on. You would have more luck there for a short period.

No you fail..even your own researchers acknowlege there is controversy within evolutionary science. Look at any taxon on Wiki for a brief overview with referenced research. If you are thus uneducated or like to get around with blinkers on that is your choice. What I am pointing out is you are hypocritical in requesting a definition of kind that is of a higher standard than your own definition of species.

Then again I leave those with an over developed sense of self importance to enjoy their own company.

No , you are NOT debateing your making blanket statement in a act of desperation. =epic fail

because people disagree on a "name" does not change any facts about the creation myth.

refer to this post regarding your views

Sounds like kindergarten, huh? There ain't no "fail" here; but emotion tends to run high where individuals have invested time and effort in their education. The problem with communication seems to happen when one side has no respect for the other, and that does seem to happen a lot here; a bias of evolution over creation. But I've seen discussions where a shared understanding was reached, even if it was an agreement to disagree. I've went back over your posts, and there's some interesting stuff; but I'm not sure if this is more properly a taxidermy issue. If you got good stuff, and share that stuff with patience and understanding, you'll make a point. ;)

Newhope... that is the modern version of Neanderthals. :cool:

And I did answer you twice so far... but I'll do it a third time as you seem to never grasp it.
"High genetic similarity" is >2% difference within a populations mtDNA... generally kept within the same guidelines for specific non-mtDNA genes like cytocrome b .

Perhaps you will provide a definition of human and how one distinguishes a human from apes?

For example is this a human?

Here is another good reconstruction of a Neanderthal... from a specific child's skull. Using the same muscle reconstruction techniques employed by forensic reconstruction artists.

I like the addition of the "ginger allele", but it is getting a little over done IMHO. Not every Neanderthal would have been ginger. ;)

I agree

even going caucasion for me is a stretch

do you know anthing about that?

Combo of genetics and the need for Vitamin D. You need light skin to be able to produce enough vitamin D at those latitudes, especially if you wear clothing (which they did). Plus, the "ginger allele" is expressed by producing less melanin.
