List of transitional fossils - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaYou do realize that most of the so called "transitional fossils" have been exposed as frauds. Go ahead and post them. I would be interested in seeing them. As far as I knew, they still had not found the "missing link".
Isn't micro-evolution as contrary to genesis as macro-evolution? I can link you to several ewxamples of speciation, i,e. dog+dog=cat.
Well, there's a list of transitionals for you, heres a list of observed speciation. Observed Instances of SpeciationMicro-evolution is not contrary to genesis. The Bible speaks of created kinds. The issue is with the vehicle for the initial creation. Creationists and scripture says God created everything directly. Theistic evolutionists say God used mutations and selection (survival of the fittest) over millions of years as the process.
Theistic evolution cannot be reconciled with scripture.
I want to address you post more fully but since I am pressed for time right now so let me just say that if you find those two options disagreeable then please suggest a third that works. If biologists are not incompetent then there must be something to evolution since it has been considered the basic theory in biology for 200 years. The only other way I can see it being in the sciences for this long is a conspiracy theory. What do you think? Do you see a third option I am missing if evolution is incorrect?
you seem to be under the impression that time and majority consensus implies credibility. you realize people have believed in things that have turned out to be wrong for much longer than 200 years.
there's a very good joke that has a lot of truth in it:
if a frog turns into a man its called a fairytale.
if a frog turns into a man over millions of years its called evolution.
if you tell someone they evolved from primordial soup 100 years ago they would laugh at you.
even if you said 1000 years ago they would still find it hard to believe you.
but if you tell them they evolved over millions of years they probably would believe that.
it seems time is evolutions ultimate hero
and no I don't think its a conspiracy. just a small group of people with an agenda and a very loud voice screaming over anyone who doesn't agree with them.
There we go again... There are many, many examples of transitional fossils. Want one? Here, a reptile covered with feathers (aka a transition between a dinosaur and a bird):
Genetics reveals relationships among species, and that is strong evidence for evolution.
You can tell this is a reptile-bird from this imprint in a rock?
As for genetics revealing relationships among species, could it not also reveal a common creator?
Of course evolution is called a religion by creationists, why? because creationists want it to be a religion and what creationists want becomes the truth for them.
Truth has nothing to do with creationism because creationism is all about belief, they believe things because they want them to be true not because they are in fact true, a belief in creationism is so ridiculous that they need to justify it in any way they can.
To be told that Genesis is true all of your young life by people you love must be believed no matter what otherwise everything you know and believe would be a sham, denial and self delusion become the norm to maintain the sanity.
My heart goes out to all of them.
And no, relationships among species don't indicate a common creator, they indicate common descent, very different.
Explain why God would create intermediate species that are now exxtinct?do you know this or do you think this? if you know this, how do you know this?
all you've said is this fossil has some reptile parts and some bird parts therefore this fossil must be the middle man between reptile and birds. that sounds more like wishful thinking.
here's a thought, what if this fossil isn't a transitional fossil at all?
Explain why God would create intermediate species that are now exxtinct?
Um, but unlike pink elephants, we can see archaeopteryx... explain the existance of it and other allegedly transitional fossils according to Creationism?your question makes no sense. your question has a built in assumption that evolution has occurred and that there are such things as intermediate species.
its like asking someone "why are elephants pink?"
well, elephants aren't pink. that question assumes they are pink, it has a built in assumption.
which is all the theory of evolution is anyway. an assumption based on another assumption.
Micro-evolution is not contrary to genesis. The Bible speaks of created kinds.

if a frog turns into a man its called a fairytale.
if a frog turns into a man over millions of years its called evolution.

*raises hand* they're about to tell you scientific dating is wrong too?So why do we only find these creatures in the historical and geological location between the two creatures it appears to be tranistional. Why would a creature sharing the morphology of reptiles and birds only exist before modern birds, but after reptiles and in the same habitat that both of them lived in?
Indeed -- qv my four Biblical reasons against evolution please:it seems time is evolutions ultimate hero
1. NOT ENOUGH TIME
2. THERE IS NO ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT
- Using the Bible to calculate time, one concludes that the earth has gone around the sun roughly 6100 times. This is much too short a timespan for evolution to have occurred.
3. NO ANIMALS DIED PRIOR TO THE FALL
- Genesis 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
4. JESUS BELIEVED IN CREATION - NOT EVOLUTION
- Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
- Mark 10:6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
