More "evolutionist" hogwash.

If all creatures "evolved" by "random selection", why do nearly all all mammals, and all birds have two eyes, two nostrils, one mouth, and the equivalent of two arms and two legs (four limbs)?

All fish... two eyes, two nostrils, one mouth. All reptiles, two eyes, two nostrils, one mouth.

Sound "random" to you? Really?

One of the first laws of Science is that "Where there is a design, there must be a designer"... a little fact that the "evolutionists" like to ignore because it makes them look like the imbeciles that they are.

From single-celled organisms, which evolved first... the circulatory system (with no respiratory system to feed it oxygen)?

Or did the nervous system "evolve" first (with no organs, heart or lungs to control... and no brain to control it)?

Or, would you like to be the first to posit that all evolved at once? Kind of like an evolutionary "Big Bang?" Wow, that would have been lucky, huh?

I'd say you evolutionists have some pretty big gaps to fill before you should expect top be taken seriously by anyone besides puffed-up, self-important, know-nothing academic simpletons... (read "other evolutionists").

And frankly, until you fill those gaps, evolution is much more of a faith-based belief-structure (religion) than is Creation, of which we have a written and verified historical record.

That is not a law of science. That is a law of ingrained stupidity. It was one of the innumberable proofs of god supplied by 12th century clerics with too much time on their hands. It also a gross and obvious logical fallacy called the Fallacy of the Excluded Middle. Apparent design could be a demonstration of coping mechanisms seeking to maintain linear equilibrium in a slowly changing environment. That is not proof that the coping mechanism was God.

They've been big on the punctuated equilibrium 'thing' lately. Careful, though, there are a couple of new evos that have been posting here, thinking they are breaking the back of anyone who disagrees with their evolutionist garbage, who may fly off the deep end if their pet theory continues to be challenged. I have noticed the insults have been flying around quite a bit. I have also noticed that a couple of these evos are bordering on losing it completely -- melting down into a pool of primordial soup. It's quite fun to watch, actually.

I'm just letting you know what you are getting into by disagreeing with them. They will call you a fool, question your credentials, and flame you repeatedly.

Guess the fact that over 75% of the World's population thinks evolution is bunk doesn't matter to them. Oh well.

One of the lesser quality posts I've seen. The term is natural selection, hot shot, not "random" selection, which blows your critique away with the dust. Try to learn at least something about evoution -- at least what it is, before you embark on a crusade against it.

ROFLMAO!! Of all the scientists that I have talked to ro correspond with, I have NEVER heard one of them state that rule.

You must be speaking of the so-called scientists that believe in ID, a nonproven theory that is based on the views of an discredited scientist.

Get a grip, you Creo's have lost it BIG time!!

Because, dear sir, evolution works with what's there. The common ancestor of all vertebrates had two eyes and a mouth. Random mutation does not mean the sudden appearance of another eye. It means a slightly modified eye that may or may not allow its owner to spot prey/predators more easily. There is nothing new under the Sun, there are simply variations on a theme.
