There are plenty of documented intermediate forms -- Split Rock seems to be on top of the game already.I get why people want to believe, it sounds logical and seems to tie things up nicely, only don't go looking for physical evidence like intermediate forms because they aren't there.

Sometimes I wonder if it would take a skeleton of every single generation in the chain -- some hundreds of millions of skeletons -- to convince some people...

The bible....clue in....I suppose that "He" = dad. Yes?
The bible says nowhere that the 'days' in Genesis were not explicit 24-hour days, or that the '1,000 years' in Revelation is not to be interpreted as a literal millenium of approximately 365,000 24-hour days. but a biblical year is 360 days. At the end of the thousand years, Satan is loosed for a bit, and there are real people alive. Try to wave that away!The bible says nowhere that the 'days' in Genesis were explicit 24-hour days, or that the '1,000 years' in Revelation is to be interpreted as a literal millenium of approximately 365,000 24-hour days.
Welcome.
There is a subforum under the Theology>Origin called Theistic Evolutionism. You may find a lot friends there.
I don't think this idea make sense.

Some single-cell life did. No one said it didn't. I said there is no reason to expect everything to go that way.I heard this thousands of times. But, the fact is: single-cell life went to multi-cell life, then went to more and more sophisticated lives.
No one said it isn't a trend. But trends are, well, trends. Statistical trends. Not everyone has to follow them. I can't remember going bankrupt when recession hit a few years ago...No one will believe it is not a trend of something.
I don't usually argue by lolcat, but...You can not pin point the force. Don't say it is not there.
Or if that sort of data would be twisted because there's too much noise in it. Cf Greatcloud's global cooling thread(s)...There are plenty of documented intermediate forms -- Split Rock seems to be on top of the game already.

I do not think a Forum is a place where people gather according to one's idea and clap hands to each other forgetting the world outside. I do not fee under subfolders of a chapter, I am a free man so I may think whatever I want, when I want, I may keep my ideas and change them at will.
I am in a Forum to hear different opinions and compare. Only then i see the other's point of view and progress.
I think this idea makes sense and it is the only plausible one. What does make sense to you?

Is there? Can you cite one?
(And remember those Chlorella guys that "went to multi-cell" right there in a lab? This kind of thing hasn't even stopped happening, it just doesn't happen very often.)

Still don't understand the very basics of science, do you Mr. "Flood Geologist?" We don't prove in science. Proof is for alcohol and math... and "Flood Geologists," I suppose
Imagine a cliff with lots of ledges in lots of configurations: large, small, flat, tilted, cracked. Then imagine lots of rocks falling from the top, down the side of the mountain--they, too, are in every possible configuration: large, small, flat, round.
What will happen over time?
Small rocks will fall in cracks, flat rocks may land on ledges and stay there. Round rocks will probably bounce and roll to the bottom. After a while, you'll get very clear patterns and distinctions--stacks of flat rocks on certain ledges, while other ledges are distinctly rock-free. In some cracks you'll find small rocks, while in others, only sand; and in any given crack, you'll never find a rock larger than a certain amount in any direction (the amount being the widest spot in the opening of the crack). Round rocks will form unstable piles at the bottom.
There are patterns, trends and seeming progressions. It may even look like the rocks are being deliberately organized. After all, no matter how long you stare at a bunch of rocks, they never just up and stack themselves. And how would the rocks know, anyway, whether they are round, and thus belong at the bottom; or small, and thus belong in a crack; or flat, and thus belong on a ledge?
The point is, when everything happens, in every possible configuration, the stuff that is stable will stick around and the stuff that is unstable will disappear.

Yes, you are an animal, Juvie. By the scientific definition of the term. And yes, your ancestors evolved from earlier apes... whether you like it or not.TE (Theistic Evolution) does not make sense because human is not evolved from animal.
(Are you an animal? Surprisingly, many many people will answer: YES !)
They do. They understand science better than a "Flood Geologist Professor" like yourself.Fine, evolution is not proven. I am with you on that.
Hope your comrades will agree with you.
I know this much, it is the doctors healing a patient not the drugs!! That means If they would bother!
And i know that you can hypnotise with the eyes when focusing the vision through the white!

Evolution is a fact! Neither you nor anyone who believes otherwise can change that. The Theory of Evolution has withstood extreme scrutiny and has passed unscathed. How can you even dare to dismiss a Theory when you know nothing about it? That is actually bearing false witness and in many religions it is considered a sin.Fine, evolution is not proven. I am with you on that.
Hope your comrades will agree with you.
Here you go: Laboratory yeast artificially evolve into multicellular organismsCould you cite me a reference which describe the change of a single-cell life to a multiple-cell life in a lab setting? I like to see it.
Multicellularity evolved many times and was lost in some lines of blue-green algae. Multicellular evolution not linear - The Scientist - Magazine of the Life SciencesCould The nature seldom makes any clear-cut thing. The trend you described is what a trend should look like. However, evolution process should not make any preferred statistics through a long time. You have a major contradiction right there.
