God does not make mistakes.

Really? According to the Bible, God Himself admitted to making a mistake right before he Flooded the world.

Agreement. I thought you'd like to know you were in good company.

Thank you, I've been around for a while although I have not requested a ping. Ichneumon overwhelms them because they do not understand his level of competence. I try to give a simple example they can't refute. Remember our high school graduates are now only 24th in the top 25 countries in math and science. They are first in self esteem. Their opinion has become more valuable to them than knowledge.

"and cloning does what?"

Makes an exact copy.

"Meaning that the clone is not an individual, yet a likeness of the host?"

Meaning its genome is not unique.

" Then you cannot make a true clone, due to the fact that by age, clones are not alike either."

True. Your point? I was not the one who claimed to be a clone; that was you. :)

And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. [Gen 6:6-7]

"What more is there to really say about "Music THEORY"???"

A lot, if you're not belligerently ignorant about it.

I read that differently. But to each his/her own.

How does this fossil fit into Romer's Gap and how does it relate to Clack's Pederpes?

What is the biological mechanism that transforms the lobe-finned fish into the tetrapod?

Oh puleeeze...it is a load of crap, IMHO. Please know that I understand some people disagree with me on that, you included, but I will not make 3rd grade comments about your IQ, etc... you lose the argument once you do that.

When you have to resort to 3rd grade comments, you have already lost the argument. Didn't your mother teach you that????

I can't tell you the incongruity in your characterization of your creation. Of course, who am I to question God's will? God may have wanted to create an obnoxious ignoramus to heckle science from a seat on an upended crate.

We will just have to agree to disagree.

Then what's this then?

Still waiting on someone to explain the complexity of the cell to me or "molecular machinery". Nothing in Darwin's "THEORY" accounts for the complexity of the cell.

This thread is about how the "no transitional fossils" mantra you guys chant is false. Now, all your other mantras are dishonest, too, but even if one or two weren't it wouldn't give you a license to lie about anything else, would it?

Point One: Complexity can evolve.

Point Two: Molecular evidence overwhelmingly supports evolution.

So, in summary, the "no-transitional fossils" mantra is a lie, and all your other mantras are lies.

Do you refer to Christians as Bible-thumpers?

No, they are philosophers of theology. They argue faith and belief.

Just remember, evolution is ONLY a theory.

So is gravity, ignore it at your peril.

Please post Darwin's theory so we can see for ourselves.

I owe you two apologies then. One for calling you "he"; and one for mistaking you for the other poster on this thread who is ignorantly asserting that he (or she?) is a clone.

Sorry!

You lose the argument. Can't refrain from posting 3rd grade comments.

Didn't mean to get under your skin so badly. Good day.

The elevated eyes provide a cartoonish cuteness. Of course, they're really that way for peeking out of the mud without exposing other parts of the body.

The picture is no doubt a Peppered Moth evo fake of the most egregious kind, as no mudskipper ever climbed a stump like that.

Exactly! LOL! But that's what you get when these people are so desparate...

It's the Creationists who are desperate - desperate to come up with another spin on how to ignore another scientific discovery that doesn't fit in with their pre-conceived ideas.

I'll ask Creationists once again to explain the hundreds of different breeds of dogs. If God created every form of life exactly how it is now - then how did mankind breed different types of dogs? And if men can do it - why would you not think Nature can do the same thing?

Apology accepted. I understand how it can happen.
