Who needs fossils when the following speciation events have been observed (some or all in the lab)?:I have no doubt that evolution is possible, but do i think that we came from a monkey...or some lower species. Definatly not.
To show me a change in species itself (size/color) wont convince me... as shown by your links:

Im not looking for a explanation for how its possible, as it is...but i am looking for proof, fossils , that it did actually happen.
Evening Primrose (Oenothera gigas)
Kew Primrose (Primula kewensis)
Tragopogon
Raphanobrassica
Hemp Nettle (Galeopsis tetrahit)
Madia citrigracilis
Brassica
Maidenhair Fern (Adiantum pedatum)
Woodsia Fern (Woodsia abbeae)
Walking sticks, grasshoppers, blackflies and cucurlionid beetles.
Stephanomeira malheurensis
Maize (Zea mays)
Yellow Monkey Flower (Mimulus guttatus)
Fruit Fly (Drosophila paulistorum)
How about a series of skulls that illustrate a rather smooth change from the near-human to the human:monkey body parts + human body parts (without seperations).
stages before a monkey would also be intresting

- (A) Pan troglodytes, chimpanzee, modern
- (B) Australopithecus africanus, STS 5, 2.6 My
- (C) Australopithecus africanus, STS 71, 2.5 My
- (D) Homo habilis, KNM-ER 1813, 1.9 My
- (E) Homo habilis, OH24, 1.8 My
- (F) Homo rudolfensis, KNM-ER 1470, 1.8 My
- (G) Homo erectus, Dmanisi cranium D2700, 1.75 My
- (H) Homo ergaster (early H. erectus), KNM-ER 3733, 1.75 My
- (I) Homo heidelbergensis, "Rhodesia man," 300,000 - 125,000 y
- (J) Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, La Ferrassie 1, 70,000 y
- (K) Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, La Chappelle-aux-Saints, 60,000 y
- (L) Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, Le Moustier, 45,000 y
- (M) Homo sapiens sapiens, Cro-Magnon I, 30,000 y
- (N) Homo sapiens sapiens, modern
With tails, remember? This is not a spontaneously generated limb, but a throwback to previous generations (and, indeed, species).was hoping for somthing more to do with arms/ legs (feet)
and if you provide proof...is there lots of it?
some people, even today, are born deformed remember :S
How so? I fail to see the connection between your two statements.according to evolution, if a mutation is beneficial...the new type of species will out-live others of its previous type. Therfore many bones should be present.
No. Just... no.theres so many possibilities to why, or why it could be true...guess thats why its still called a theory :S
