How would a creationist explain this?

How does an evolutionist explain the Universe coming from nothing, life from non-life?

That is not a part of the theory of evolution. And it is a change of subject.

LOL!

Oh, that's right, you guys like to start with everything already existing and just 'evolving'.

Found any of those missing links yet?

Where are the dinosaur bones? Until you can come up with dinosaur bones, not fossils, you haven't a leg to stand on.

Now, why should we have to come up with dinosaur bones when you can't come up with any transitional fossils.

There are transitionals all over the place.

There are no miraculous "missing links." All populations are in transition, and thus all fossils are "transitional fossils."

But just for fun, here's an example of a fossil exhibiting characteristics of both fish and tetrapods:

A DEVONIAN TETRAPOD-LIKE FISH AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE TETRAPOD BODY PLAN

Does this meet your criteria for a "transitional fossil"?

Nope. Scientists don’t make unwarranted assumptions. Science is still looking for the answer of creation. They don’t believe it will be found in ancient fables though. They keep an open mind about such things. I guess that’s why religion appeals to so many. Someones scribblings can be declared the final word on a subject and no further analysis needs to be applied.

The way you all are talkin’ it’s hard to tell who’s who in this “discussion”.

There is so much not known by either those who argue “evolutionism” or “creationism”. Most of this argument by “evolutionist scientists” is for the purpose of demonstrating to the rest of us that there is no God. Most of the “creationist” argument is to say that their intrepretation of Biblical passages is absolutely the “correct” interpretation. In most of these arguments it becomes clear that neither side knows much. God knows...let’s let Him sort it out. And btw, there is little or no real science in any of the arguments that I see, read on the subject.

The Bible says that a day is coming when the Lion and the Lamb will lie down together; will that day also see the creationist and the evolutionist also finally coming together?
