"you're not going to see a given species get pregnant, and give birth to a completely different species"
I don't mean that. I mean, like in the two cases presented so far (both by Mr. Bird) :
1 - Galapagos finches - geographical isolation would have been the cause for them do diverge from other finches that you still can observe now elsewhere ...

IMO, 'global warming' and 'Darwinism' are in the same boat: there is not enough data to support either theory. As tantalizing as they may seem, one cannot conclude either as fact.

'I think, therefore I am.' and that's a fact: There is a God.

"Evolution so where are all the monkeys evolving into humans where are they shouldnt we see this happening right before our eyes."

Yours could be the most convincing pro-evolution argument on this thread.

Here's one. Dogs.

Now, of course, they're all the same species, and all can interbreed, so it's not technically "speciation." And they're all essentially wolves at root.

It's now believed that humans didn't run out and domesticate wild Wolves, but that some Wolves began hanging around humans for scraps on their own (basically evolving naturally) and VERY quickly became more docile and accepting for humans. AFTER that humans began actively selecting for certain types of dogs.

And in ONLY 10,000 years we've gone from Wolves to Dachsunds, poodles, Chihuahas, Newfoundlands, etc., by a combination of NATURAL selection, and active organized breeding (but only in the last couple thousand years of that.)

Thanks for the reply, but one of the foundations of analytic reasoning is not to mix issues.
You should not mix the issue of "CHARLES DARWIN's MENTAL HEALTH" with my request.

"God created evolution."

Game, set, match.

"IMO, 'global warming' and 'Darwinism' are in the same boat: there is not enough data to support either theory. "
You should not put evolution theory and global warming in the same boat. "Global warming" isn't the real issue anyway, it's climate change.
But again that is not in the context of this thread.

OK

Request to intelligent freepers that beleive in evolution...

Is this how the intelligent freepers spell "believe"?

[John Beresford Tipton]

I don't know whether you will be successful in your call for "intelligent FReepers", but after seeing "implanted in the braines" I am sure you can find thousands of more intelligent FReepers.

Got a picture of yourself? You last your tail.

Evolution, but maybe God is in charge of it.

Got a picture of yourself? You LOST your tail.

Evolution, but maybe God is in charge of it.

Dennis Miller, and the reasons are obvious :^)

Okay, here's an example species... Oh, wait. You requested intelligent freepers. That excuses me. Never mind. ;-)

[Nataku X]

excludes, not excuses

Creation can be reconciled with evolution


I used to think that way too! After investigating the "so called" evidence of evolution I realized it would take more faith to support evolution than it would to believe in creation...


Evolution is the greatest hoax ever to be shoved down the throat of mankind.

Whatever one may think of evolution or Darwin's work, that is a shameful article... even more so if the authors have enough clue about mental illness and the lexicon to realize how their use of terminology biased the layperson to infer a mental state much more unusual and critical than warranted.

Setting aside the buzzwords... "anxiety state with obsessive features and psychosomatic manifestations"...

Duhhh... the guy was a genius, and as is very typical, especially among those with brilliant and analytical minds, he had the common mix of OCD and an anxiety disorder that resulted panic attacks... (which account for half of the scary - freaky symptoms described - piling on as tho they were separate problems. Quite "normal" people feel and appear pretty "psychotic" in the midst of a panic attack) They go hand in hand with agoraphobia and most the other scary-sounding terms so strategically given in the article.

It's so common I doubt any of us are without at least one acquaintance who suffers the same. Some just need a bit of Prozac (or similar drug) to be perfectly fine.

While he may have passed the level of simple anxious personality to neurosis, what's described here (and i suspect it is exaggerated) is still a far cry from psychosis.

...not a very Christian thing for them to do.

Sorry for following that rabbit with my post above, but it was a mud-sling that needed answered... I agree with you that the topic should be free of personal attacks on the theorists, and the discussion should focus on the validity of their science and theories. : )
