You are assuming that God created us as we are today. It is entirely possible that over time, humans as a species lost the ability (through natural selection) to manufacture the fourth enzyme needed to make vitamin C.

Thank you.  And it is entirely possible that man was created
as in the graphic picture seen at the top of this thread and
has evolved into what we are today.  As a matter of fact,
the inability to make vitamin C suggests that at one time
the human diet was so overwhelmingly fruit that we
lost the need to make our own C.  Use it or lose it.

To woolyone:

Looks to me that your dog was created diffently than humans.

You could learn some things from your friend genisis defender.

The premise about vitamin C production is such a trite non-issue as to be laughable. To attempt to spin that this somehow validates evolution is absurd. I needn't debate absurd moronic trite comments.

I already learned that the evos who desire to debate here at FR do so just to puff themselves up and to feed their incessant need to banter. Not productive. Believe me...I've learned. Just like your little snide remark is an attempt to bait.

more unwholesome chatter...*sigh*

I think you misunderstood my point and/or I didn't explain my position very well. I was trying to say that I believe humans were created with far better and more efficient bodies than what we have today. When I cited natural selection, it was not in defense of Darwinian evolution. Whenever natural selection occurs, it always results in a loss of genetic information. As specialization occurs in a species or an isolated group of that species, those creatures inevitably lose the genetic potential to produce certain characteristics. Now I could talk about mutations and genetic info, but I would be wandering farther from the original post.

Plus, this thread would end up being hundreds of posts long!

I agree with woolyone. Furthermore, I believe that <10,000 years ago, God created this universe, in 6 days, and that man was created in God's image. We can't convince each other of anything here on FR; that would take years. Three links to visit as a start for anyone interested would be:

PBS Evolution website

Institute for Creation Research

Answers in Genesis
