• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

If you do not purge the old, how can the new take hold?

No, you say that the weight of evidence favours purposeful creation, and yet you have never once shown any evidence for creation, at all.

Study of anatomy confirms creation.

No, you don't. If you really did then you would put in the work required to understand it to the depth you demand. You won't put in that work for yourself, so I am assuredly not going to put in that effort for you, only to have it ignored by you and to have serious answers treated with contempt.

We're done.

I thought the one making the assertion was obligated to prove it? You are asking me to prove your case. o_O

So you say. But you've not once presented any way to prove you right or to actually show creation.

You really should be more honest and just admit "My study of anatomy confirms creation for me".

Quit your immature goading. You know perfectly well that is not what I am doing.

Isn't that who we're trying to convince?

You are saying that if I study it long enough and hard enough I'll have to believe it. But nothing I've read comes close to answering my questions.

If you were taken back in time in a time machine, and you got to witness evolution of the sort you ask for happen (obviously not in real-time since that'd be millennia), would you accept evolution as fact?

I accept that anatomy confirms creation to me only. I'm not concerned with what others believe.

So why do you keep saying that anatomy confirms creation then, and not just say that it only confirms creation for yourself?

Come on. Now you are just deliberately goading. I gave a detailed explanation as to why your study would not you require to believe the theory. Frankly, if you can't be bothered to read what I write, or if you choose to pretend I didn't say it, then your goading has worked. I won't waste any more breath dealing with your snide ignorance.

Suits me as well. :wave:

Would you like to see my fps challenge, where I try to get an honest academic to admit the fossil record shows instant arrival of genera?

No, it's because your challenges are bunk.

Isn't it true that many critters appeared suddenly in the fossil record with no evidence of evolutionary ancestors? Isn't T-Rex one? Just asking.

Not at all. You've been told this many times now.
