More of the Fake Science Lysenkoism of the logical fallacy of correlation is causation that is Evolution theory.

This article is 100%, complete, pure, unadulterated BS!

Man made global warming is more believable.

“it likely excreted waste from openings by its mouth,”

Then it may have evolved into the M-16.

No we are not random. Neither is earth. Astronomers scramble to find another similar planet with the ideal conditions necessary to support human life, and try as they might, they can’t find a single one. It is either too hot, or too cold, or not enough water, or oxygen content is too high, or too low, etc.

No, this planet was designed just for us.

Our observations of nature show that systems ‘naturally’ progress from an ordered state to a state of less order. Life does the opposite. It pulls nutrients together to form more complexity, going from a state of less order to a more ordered state. It’s like a tornado going through a trailer park and leaving the Eiffel tower in its wake. It doesn’t happen naturally. Life forms clearly by design, which for the intellectually honest and curious, begs the question, ‘Who is the designer?’.

Just to be clear, I believe the Biblical account of our origins.

" This week a team of paleontologists described a new link in the chain of human evolution — and it isn’t pretty. With its “bag-like body,” “prominent mouth” and no anus (it likely excreted waste from openings by its mouth)

So it's an early ancestor of mainstream reporters? 

mainstream reporters.....close, but more like Juan McStain

I have had this argument who defend the THEORY of evolution as if it is fact, and nobody can ever answer any of my questions. They blow it off.

Let me try to help you.

A "theory", in scientific usage, is a framework that best explains the known facts in a way that allows for the prediction of new, testable, facts. This definition has absolutely nothing to do with the popular usage of the word "theory" to mean "unsupported conjecture."

The reason the theory of evolution is a theory and not random speculation is that there is a huge body of evidence derived from several scientific disciplines that shows that there is a constant process of change over time--i.e. evolution. And the solidity of this theory is demonstrated by the fact that from the time of the ancient Greeks, who first postulated some mechanism of evolution, to the present, every major new advance in scientific technique added to and refined the considerable body of knowledge on the subject. For example, when Gregor Mendel did his studies of pea genetics, he knew nothing of DNA. But when DNA sequencing techniques were developed, they added a breadth and complexity of new data which validated Mendel's work to an extent he never even imagined.

Of course, if your main source of "information" about evolution comes from one of the many creation "science" sites, what you know is garbled and barely resembles actual science at all.

AKA the Goldilocks zone...not to mention our Solar System’s position in the Milky Way.

Check out “The Privileged Planet” on YouTube. We are not random. All praise and glory to the King of the Universe.

Fascinating. The story changed in 2004 when they found the common ancestor of man and the other primates. When I first studied evolution it was the plesiadapis-type animal that was considered the point where man and the apes diverged.

The common misconception that man evolved from the present-day apes is responsible for a lot of rejection of evolution. This story doesn’t really help, with the big red arrows leading from each one to the next, in the print edition, leading people to think that we did evolve from present-day primates if they don’t read the text carefully.

Because of the near-nonexistence of the fossil record, I think the link was probably farther back than where they are saying it was. Maybe, maybe not. They didn’t really prove anything with this 2004 discovery if you think about it, but greater minds than mine may prove me wrong.
