The irony is that Darwin was a devout Christian who never intended for his observations in the Galapogos Islands to interfere with anyone's belief in Scripture.

Good for the parents. Now if only more across the nation would follow their example.

The Five Crises in Evolutionary Theory, by Dr. Ray Bohlin:

Link

1. The unsubstantiation of a Darwinian mechanism of evolution

2. The total failure of origin of life studies to produce a workable model

3. The inability of evolutionary mechanism to explain the origin of complex adaptations

4. The bankruptcy of the blind watchmaker hypothesis

5. The biological evidence that the rule in nature is morphological stability over time and not constant change.

Raymond G. Bohlin is a graduate of the University of Illinois (B.S., zoology), North Texas State University (M.S., population genetics), and the University of Texas at Dallas (M.S., Ph.D., molecular biology)

This seems as if it ought to apply equally to the individual versus collective rights interpretation of the Second Amendment, also not commonly studied in public schools.

How do Darwin's observations interfere with your belief in scripture?

I'm still waiting for someone to direct me to that portion of the Constitution that indicates that the federal government should have any role in education.

The best argument in favor of evolution are the creationists, for they have not evolved.

You are correct.

1. The unsubstantiation of a Darwinian mechanism of evolution

Must be a major flaw; they had to make up a new word to describe it.

2. The total failure of origin of life studies to produce a workable model

They are repeatedly informed that Darwinian evolution does not concern itself with the origin of life. They continually repeat the same lie.

3. The inability of evolutionary mechanism to explain the origin of complex adaptations

Unsubstantiated assertion.

4. The bankruptcy of the blind watchmaker hypothesis

Unsubstantiated assertion.

5. The biological evidence that the rule in nature is morphological stability over time and not constant change.

The creationists claim you can't prove evolution, because you can't monitor life over an extended period of time. But they have no problem making assertions about what they think happens over the same sort of extended time period.

Please do not turn this into an evolution vs. creationism debate!

This is what so many of us have been praying for! For someone, a Christian, to stand up and demand that WE have free speech too!

Can't those of us who are seeing prayers come true, just rejoice? And can't those of us who think the rest of us are "religious nutcases" just shut it?

You will have your debate threads...please don't make this one of them!

Darwin visited the Galapagos over 150 years ago, yet in that time, this self-contained ecosystem has yet to see any hint of any new species "evolving," nor have there been any other new species observed anywhere on earth in recorded history that I am aware of. However, there have been species that have been driven to extinction. Darwin's theory on the "survival of the fittest" seems quite correct; but, there is no proof whatsoever of any new species naturally "evolving."

I certainly see your point. Unfortunately, I do not see any way that any discussion of Darwinism will not debate evolution.

The Case for a Creator by Lee Strobel.
A lot of scientists no longer believe in evolution; too much evidence points out that it cannot work.

Is there anything about evolution that anyone knows to be a scientificly proven fact? Is there even one thing that you are absolutely sure of?

Evolution is the end results of thousands upon thousands of generations. The faster the reproduction rate, the faster the evolution. The slower the reproduction rate, the slower the evolution.

While the generation cycle for humans is around 20 years, that for bacteria at every 20 minutes.

The 150 years since Darwin's trip to the Galapagos is the equivalent of 2 1/2 hours in terms of bacteria reproduction rates.

As a result, bacteria evolve so rapdly that Hospitals need to keep publishing new anti-biotic guides that inform the doctors practicing at that particular Hospital what antibiotics work for what hospital-acquired bacteria at any given time.
