To be quite candid, I really don't care if you happen to worship the god of your own intellect and bogus science, just don't use the term "science" (to which you avoid the definition of, as it applies to this discussion) to claim that evolution is a "fact". The only fact is your faith that it is fact. By all definitions of science, it is not fact, but theory at best and more probably a flimsy fairy tale for those adherents who need to have an excuse to be athiests.

The theory of evolution is a model that best describes the current understanding of the diversity of life here on earth.

A scientific theory can be modified by data points when they no longer fall within the framework of that model. So I am certainly open to discard evolution should evidence (real, verifiable, peer reviewed) come along that is at odds with the evolutionary model. Religion on the other hand (being set down by God) has no checks and balances. Our notions of God are completely subjective as apposed to objective. So with that in mind, do you wonder that all of us (living in a solipsistic universe) have our own ideas of what God is? How then can you use "God" to define or help define the observed models we create to describe this physical universe?

I could go with "God's Guiding Hand thru Evolution" theory...

is that allowed?

"The theory of evolution is a model that best describes the current understanding of the diversity of life here on earth."

Nonsense! The Theory of Evolution is flatly contradicted by Complexity Theory, Chaos Theory, Intelligent Design, and a host of other scientific theories which have far more credible scientific evidence supporting them.

Ten years from now Evolutionary Theory will be so discredited by the mainstream that you won't touch it or give it the time of day.

So Darwinism is the best that you've got?! Ridiculous. Darwinism doesn't even explain the very FIRST step of the "evolutionary process."

My suggestion to you is to read Noble Prize winner Illya Prigone's "Order Out of Chaos" at once.

Best theory, indeed... Hurumph!

Well, let's see...
About 5,000,000 fossils have been unearthed and this thread has suggested 200 examples of transitionary "evidence". That's .00004% of all the fossils ever found demonstrate the "evidence"? I don't think so. It's easier to see that 99.99996% of the fossils recovered testify to what is readily observable; that species seem to suddenly exist and then suddenly cease to exist.

The universe shows intelligent design. I call Him God, as He declares Himself to be in the Bible. With all due respect, you may call the intellegent designer whatever you may wish.

peace!
