The Origin of Man (Combating Darwinism)

Darwinism Refuted ^ | Harun Yahya

[scottdeus12]

Darwin put forward his claim that human beings and apes descended from a common ancestor in his book The Descent of Man, published in 1871. From that time until now, the followers of Darwin's path have tried to support this claim. But despite all the research that has been carried out, the claim of "human evolution" has not been backed up by any concrete scientific discovery, particularly in the fossil field.

The man in the street is for the most part unaware of this fact, and thinks that the claim of human evolution is supported by a great deal of firm evidence. The reason for this incorrect opinion is that the subject is frequently discussed in the media and presented as a proven fact. But real experts on the subject are aware that there is no scientific foundation for the claim of human evolution. David Pilbeam, a Harvard University paleoanthropologist, says:

If you brought in a smart scientist from another discipline and showed him the meagre evidence we've got he'd surely say, "forget it; there isn't enough to go on."

Harun Yahya needs to evolve.

What drivel. You posted the same nonsense yesterday, and I cited dozens of human ancestors. Moreover, in addition to overwhelming fossil evidence, genetics now proves beyond any doubt that humans are apes.

Common descent is so firmly established, that even the Intelligent Designers and many creationists accept it. Get with the program!

"Common descent is so firmly established, that even the Intelligent Designers and many creationists accept it. Get with the program!"

Your opinion. There's plenty of other info out there that contradicts your position.

After you posted Turkana Boy, I found plenty of info to dispute the veracity of that claim.

No creationist can accept common descent.....it goes against the biblical account of creation.

*YAWN*

How insecure you must feel...

[Lunatic Fringe]

So you admit that IDers are really biblical creationists in disguise. Thanks for the confirmation.

*YAWN*

I was thinking *S-N-O-R-E.*

These people sure could use a new song and dance.

"How insecure you must feel..."

Actually, I'm not insecure at all.

Is this a dispatch from the Flat Earth Society?

From the site to which you linked:

His pen-name, Harun Yahya, is formed from the names "Harun" (Aaron) and "Yahya" (John) in the esteemed memory of the two Prophets who struggled against infidelity.

Many works of Harun Yahya are being currently translated into English, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, Albanian, Serbo-Croat (Bosnian), Polish, Urdu, Indonesian, Kazakh, Azeri, Malay and Malayalam. The target is to translate all books into English and many other languages in the near future, and thus to make them available for the benefit of all people.

The common point in all the writer's works is that all the topics covered by his works are in full agreement with the Qur'an, and strongly affirmed by Qur'anic understanding. Even the topics addressed by science and mostly considered complicated and confusing are narrated very lucidly and explicitly in the books of Harun Yahya. For this reason, these books appeal to everyone, from every age and social group.

Harun Yahya's books on faith-related topics communicate the existence and oneness of God and are written with the main purpose of introducing Islam to those who are strangers to religion, and reconciling their hearts to the truth. For Muslims, these books are advice as well as a reminder. The writer has published works on all the basic issues referred to in the Qur'an that expand the dedication and contemplation of Muslims.

Do you just pass on radical Islamic propaganda without reading it, or do you actually believe it?

Correction:
...it goes against the our interpretation of the biblical account of creation.

You posted nonsense from some site that bizarrely claimed -- without offering any actual proof -- that Homo erectus is alive today.

[Gumlegs]

Don't antagonize the radical Islamists. They might lop off your head.

[M. Dodge Thomas]

I know exaxtoy how the author feels. I, too, have hard time accepting that your typical molecular biologist and your typical creationist are descended from a common ancestry.

[Alter Kaker]

I'd have written that creationism jumped the shark when its adherents started to post Wahabbi Muslim drivel, but creationism actually jumped the shark about 120 years ago.

There are serious creationists who are dishonest, and there are honest creationists who aren't serious. But there are no serious, honest creationists, and there haven't been in over a hundred years.

[Gumlegs]

... and insulting the dishonest won't help you, either.

Unnatural selection? Will SOCOM protect us from the Taliban posting on FR?
