If there is anything that is incredulous it's that anyone one believe evolution is superior to creationism. All evolution has going for it is that more people believe in it. It's a belief system.

This is nothing more than an argument from incredulity. Evolution explains it very neatly.
I guess you've never seen a real chicken. You can actually see the scales transform into feathers on their legs. And that's just on the one creature.
So? Evolution is about how life forms change over time, and that's it. Complaining that evolution doesn't work because it can't explain how evolution got started is like saying medicine is wrong because it can't explain where you got sick.What evolution explains is a neat system. But, as far as the big picture? Its fragmented and missing too many parts of the puzzle. Its off the mark if it tries to explain how and why evolution even exists in the first place.
This is irrelevant to evolutionary theory. As I said, evolution is about how life forms change over time. And that's all. If you demand that evolutionary theory explains something other than that, then you do not understand evolution.Explain then? How did evolution begin to happen?
No, evolution needs only variation, some copying mechanism, and selective pressures.What brings it about had to be already programmed into the DNA. Programmed by a mind that foresaw needs before they became apparent.
Occam's razor doesn't do that at all. That's another belief. All so called evidence of evolution can be equally used to say creation is the what happened.
It's just as valid as saying evolitiondidit.
Do you know God is real? Why not?You can include your views on the nature of God if you like. I just want to know if you thought He did it. It's an incredibly simple quesion. He drowned the men. Did He drown women and small children as well?
I understand that much that life forms do change. Its no problem for me.So? Evolution is about how life forms change over time, and that's it.
No, it all points to a common ancestor. Every single area of scientific endeavour that I mentioned and more besides. All the evidence leads to that conclusion. And literally none of it to creation. None whatsoever.None of that shows evolution fr a common ancestor. Every single piece of so called evidence is ASSUMED it does. Cause they can't show it. Every single piece of that can equally be assumed to show creation.
My views are irrelevant to the question. You believe He's real. So do you believe He drowned women and small children?Do you know God is real? Why not?
Two entirely separate areas of scientific investigation.I understand that much that life forms do change. Its no problem for me.
The problem I have is how some wish to use that to explain how we got living organisms in the first place.
Scales cannot turn to feathers? I don't have to show you two creatures where it's happening. I can show you one where you can actually see it happening and you still deny it? There's even a gene for it.I used to own and raise chickens. It's not the same thing.

Evolution can explain this easily - the genes for different blood groups evolved before the chimp and human branches separated. But what is the creationist explanation for this?

'By turning on and off key molecular circuits at critical stages of growth, the researchers demonstrated the ability to turn scales into feathers.
They placed the unique chicken feather genes in alligator eggs, and were able to transform the scales into feathers'. Scientists identify genes responsible for turning scales into feathers
When He already knows how that child will be at 50? He alone has that advantage point.My views are irrelevant to the question. You believe He's real. So do you believe He drowned women and small children?

I've never seen anyone who actually understands evolution claim that evolution is an explanation for how life got started.
Yet the same thing is found entirely within one generation of other birds as well. And not just turning scales into feathers but gradually turning legs into partial wings. Again, in one single generation. Pigeon foot feather genes identified: Study hints how scaly dinosaur legs could get birdlike feathersLol I've already read that article. It's hilarious that you think that's the same thing. Human being deliberately introduce certain DNA from one animal I to another and deliberately manipulate the DNA through stages and somehow this shows that nature did it naturally?
Preposterous. You have intelligent being manipulating DNA on purpose to produce a result they wanted.
They used to make science fiction movies as bout this stuff and it never worked out well. Eeevil scientists always trying to create and I yerfere with nature. Yup, how foolish.
When all evidence points to it then what choice does one have? There is no other theory. Just a religious belief.You are stuck with that conclusion....
So we have four answers in one.When He already knows how that child will be at 50? He alone has that advantage point.
