I've never explained this, newbie?You said you used Boolean standards and you also say science can take a hike? please make up your mind.
I have always wanted to ask this. maybe someone can give me an answer.
lets say there was a parallel universe (which some scientists say might be possible) were beavers, platypus and ducks live side by side and humans don't exist.
one day some terrible disease wipes out all the beavers. a few thousand years later the platypus goes extinct, finally the duck another hundred thousand years later.
then a visitor from space comes and digs up these these fossils. he finds the beavers right a the bottom, platypus in the middle layers and ducks higher up.
from this he theorizes that beavers slowly evolved into the platypus then finally became the duck.
can someone tell me how I would be able to prove this persons theory wrong? how would I falsify his theory?
No. They are unrelated structures with completely different developmental pathways. In other words, they are not homologous.couldn't they just say that the platypus bill evolved over time and hardened as an adaptation?
First of all, individual animals can have one more or less sets of ribs. Therefore, if an individual fossil has one or more ribs it means nothing. Secondly, we now know that horse evolution was more like a bush than a straight line to the modern horse Equus. Some lines evolved in different directions, such as maintaining the original browsing adaptions, and smaller size. Some may have had a reduction or increase in average rib number. They are all extinct now, except for Equus.the same with the tail. couldn't someone just say that it evolved into a shorter thicker and hairier tail to adapt to a changing environment?
in the horse evolution chart, the descendants of the horse seem to lose and gain ribs randomly without any explanation given.
Archeopteryx is actually a feathered theropod dinosaur with wings. The only reason is is called a bird is because it has wings, not because of its skeletonal features, which are much more theropod than avian.you say the similarities are entirely cosmetic. could not the same be said about the archeopteryx fossil?
you say its has features similar to reptiles and to birds therefore it is a transitional fossil when ornithologists say its simply a perching bird.
They didn't appear suddenly really. Many other dinosaurs had feathers of one type or another. Some were similar to modern flightless birds, others were more like down or even just hair like filaments. We know that the same cells that develop into scales can develop into feathers. In fact, there are plenty of birds today that demonstrate this. For example, there are breeds of chickens that have feathers on their legs instead of scales. In fact, only theropod dinosaurs and birds have both scales and feathers. This is a feature they have in common that supports their common ancestry.evolutionists still haven't explained how scales can become feathers and why they appear suddenly on the fossil record.
They are usually classified based on features unique to various taxa.and by all means do go into more detail about how fossils are classified.
Others use Boolean standards, despite ridicule from you guys.
So either way, it doesn't matter, does it?
It's not what we say or do that bothers you guys -- it's what we are that bothers you guys, isn't it?
Just keep passing that money around that says IN GOD WE TRUST on it --Nah. I don't care about what you believe unless your beliefs turn to actions that affect me, directly or indirectly.
Nah. I don't care about what you believe unless your beliefs turn to actions that affect me, directly or indirectly.
Isn't the bottom line that bible believers act against social sexual promiscuity because one of the bible Truths tells them that such societies become dominated by the women.
Their bibkle argues that sex becomes a sconmd currency which is used in the social commerce to trade sex favors for material and personal benefits with the men.
Women, in general, become rich simply because they collectively are "sitting on the gold mines."
But the single mothers start appearing in greater and greater numbers.
Their fatherless kids become anti-social criminal elements that destroy the nation.
This sexual prudence is what Bill Maher is really against, because he could other wise care not at all.
Hence, as a citizen, one is either for Bill Maaher and wide open sexual promiscuity, abortions, Gayness out, Homo marriage, pre-martial sex, No Fault Divorce, pornograph, lewd TV nakeness, or,... one is for the bible and sexual restraints.

This might be the most insulting and sexist post I've seen in this board. What are you reading? Or should I say drinking? The Bible that I read certainly doesn't say that all women become prostitutes if they don't follow your God.
Prostitutes...
No.
It says they become courtesan, geisha girls made up and dressed the part of the harlots who seek to accompany men as they trade their sexual favors in a promiscuous socciety.
Evolution is a theory and is not based on scientific facts but only the faith and hope of its proponents. It must be accepted by faith and believed in by faith and not questioned. Therefore it has to be forced upon students at universities as their religious alignment.
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.
Actually, the fossil record is evidence against evolution as there is an absence of transitional fossils. The fossil record is also evidence for a worldwide flood.
How is genetics evidence for evolution? Genetics is evidence for information and design. Only intelligence produces information and design.

There were practical matters that led to the prohibitions against a woman having sex with anyone but her husband. That way you knew you were passing down your land and flocks to your actual progeny. The priests of the day, doing what priests did best, used the image of an angry god to enforce the ideas they needed enforced. You didn't sleep with a woman having her period because if you slept with a virgin you needed to see that blood from the busting of the hymen. You couldn't see that if the woman was having her period at the same time. So make it unclean. Just make it unclean all the time. That way a woman can't hide any diseases with her period either.Isn't the bottom line that bible believers act against social sexual promiscuity because one of the bible Truths tells them that such societies become dominated by the women.

What are you talking about? There is no "IN GOD WE TRUST" on the money I pass around.
