Evolution and Christianity are perfectly compatible.

Although some creationists do say that “there are no transitional fossils,” it would be more accurate to state that there are no undisputed transitional forms. Although the article asserts that the fossil record “is full of them,” the reality is that it does not contain a single universally accepted transitional form.And by disputing and refusing to accept the transitional forms, the cretionists provide their own evidence to support the assertion.

Transitional forms or not, the case can be made that, wherever matter is organized in some form so as to perform a specific function, intelligent design may be reasonably posited as a factor. One may also reasonably posit that all of the same is merely an illusion; that organized matter is a product of unguided happenstance.
Which of these two points of view should enjoy federal subsidies?

The acceptance of every transitional fossil requires finding two more.

Only if one doesn’t believe that the Bible tells the real truth.

The “classic fossil of Archaeopteryx” is not a transitional form either, but was fully bird. Its “reptile-like” teeth and wing claws are found in some birds today.8 Many reptiles have no teeth, but nobody claims that they evolved from birds.Wow. And you accept this as fact?

NO, they are not.

Sure. The bible is allegorical. God gave us brains to figure out how he got us here. He’d be disappointed if we didn’t try.

The bible is allegorical. That doesn’t mean that it’s not “true”.

Evolution and Christianity are perfectly compatible. That's not undisputed, ergo it must be false.
Now consider: "The Bible is True"

There does not need to be a demonstrated slow transition from one species to the next. Evolutionary models work with the data available when both minor changes and major mutations occur randomly.
To: Oztrich Boy
Am I correct in assuming that your post oozes sarcasm?

Of course! To an evolution fanatic any transition fossil
never fills a gap between species.
Oh no, that just wouldn't do, would it?
Dear me, dear me.
*snaps fingers*
I know! I know! let's just call the transition fossil, a whole new species! Then we can whinge on endlessly about the two new gaps on either side!
Just in case they don't know it, we are aching aware of that little intellectually dishonest game. It manages to both be disgusting and boring.
