Millions? How about billions – about 2.5 billion years? Did you cut a few classes?

Excuse me? I think you are the one to have cut the classes. Cambrian explosian appeared about 570 million years ago. Before that only one celled creatures and algae were around and not for 2.5 billion years. Earth has been here about 4 billion, life has not. Also, there is no fosil record before the Cambrian explosion to show how these life forms "evolved" from the one cells and algae. Perhaps you could explain this? If you can you will be the first one to do so.

I am NOT a creationist. I am a non-evolutionists who has been convinced that evolution never happened. It has been disproved, despite the protestaions of evolutionists. Most non-evolutionists cannot get their papers published because of the prejudice against them and people screaming creationists!

Sooner or later the ideas will change, the proof will finally overwhelm them. I feel there is a third theory that is yet to be found to explain both the origin of life and the species.

BTW, anyone who thinks they can seperate the two just isn't thinking.

There is no photo of God, either.

Google "Edicarian fauna" and get back to us.

Ok. So life on this earth changes over time because of, what, exactly?

It's easy to get caught up in studying the holes in something that you miss everything else.

Lots of smart people think we didn't go to the moon either. Fox even had a show about it. They point out the "problems" in the video's

A whole bunch of people in france think that the US staged 9/11. There was a best selling book published about it. They studied the "holes" too.

Probably a big majority think that Oswald couldn't have shot Kennedy. They look for the "holes" in the story. Of course, they don't have serious evidence of anything else. The "holes" are all they care about.

I'm sure I could go on, but we'll just have to disagree. The evidence for Evolution is overwhelming, despite what some claim are the "holes" in it.

The evidence for Evolution is like a movie. Different frames, that when viewed in sequence prove there was movement. But it's easy to get hung up that there is missing data between the frames. Some would demand that one more frame be added. Then two more between those three. And on and on. But the process can never really "prove" that there was movement between the frames. It can only prove that movement is the best description of the available evidence of the frames in the movie.

From the way you worded your comment, I inferred that you meant to state that life had only been here for millions of years.
The Precambrian also included the (about 1.8 Billion years) Eukaryota , multicellular structures that formed the basis for the life forms we have today.

Gee, really?? Hmm, these don't look like "only one celled creatures and/or algae" -- in fact, they look like precambrian trilobite precursors:

Care to pull the other leg now?
