'Totally Strange' Hurdia a Hurdle for Evolution

Cambrian rock layers contain fossils that represent almost every modern phylum of animal, plus many that are now extinct. One animal fossil in particular would win the weird prize, if there were one. Paleontologists have been piecing together this strange creature’s body parts, which look as though they were taken from an array of totally different sea animals. This variety of features eludes an evolutionary explanation.

The parts of this particular fossilized animal had previously been described separately and given different names, as though they belonged to different creatures. But a recent study revealed that all these parts came from just one “totally strange” sea creature...

[[I guess I’ll restate it: The whole Real Christian® vs. Fake Christian (according to Real Christians®) bickering is funny.]]

Not whne examined i nthe light of God’s word- ‘fake’ Christians are apostates whos eternity will be quite severe and terrible- more so than hte person who simply rejects God and Christ’s salvation- there’s nothign funny about that sir

"Woooooooosh- That’s the sound of the issue and hte facts flying directly over your head spanky"

I believe you meant to use the adverb form: spankily.

The facts flew spankily.

Thanks for the ping!

Gen 2:19 Now out of the ground the LORD God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them.

Interesting passage which seems to be counter evolution in that it says that the beasts and the birds were created after Adam.

[ColdWater]

There’s no plainer way that God could have indicated that He did not use evolution than that.

Perhaps he was just speaking to the locals in the language they could understand. Like how He refers to the four corners of the fixed world. After all, if he had started talking about evolution, genes, dna, he would have lost his audience.

Nope- it was a descriptive word- it was either that or ‘whistlebritches’-

Interesting passage that seems to say that God didn’t use evolution.

“Interesting passage that seems to say that God didn’t use evolution.”

Allegory provokes thought, doesn’t it?

[ColdWater]

I noticed that you agreed that God created the animals after man. Or, are you just ignoring that part of my post because you are an ID supporter?

[ColdWater]

This is a balded faced lie- there’s plenty of evidence showing hte NEED for a designer-

Where is God in your equation?

Now that’s Italian! Looks great!

[airborne]

Tastes great too!

Thanks for the recipe!!!

[FormerRep]

You’re very welcome!

[airborne]

It’s a great meal to serve if you have vegetarian friends!

And even a “meatatarian” like me loves it!

[FormerRep]

I have plenty of other recipes for the meat lover in you.
