Well, thanks for an acknowledgement for Jimmy...he will not be able to ask me questions that I cannot answer and unless he is a Nobel prize winner, he will not be able to answer my questions. Now that is funny, IMO.
I can see where you would get that idea, my hope is that Jimmy will have a different idea.
why not? the similarity is because a common designer. not common descent. very simple and we dont need the evolutionery belief.
Now you know why Paul refers to evolution as "endless genealogies."Can you trace your family tree back to who your ancestors were in the year 295BC? No? Well, if you can't trace your family tree back 2300 years, why do you demands that we do it for a period of billions of years?

1 Timothy 1:4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
Notice he compares it to fables and says it:
1. ministers questions
2. does not edify Christ
It's almost as if he had us here at CF in mind when he said that.
Do you believe that?Maybe he had 1 Chronicles 1-8 in mind.
Do you believe that?
Neither will I.
Oh."Many scholars see in genealogies a clear reference to second century gnostic emanations. But there seem stronger reasons to suppose that the anonymous false teachers were members of a sect attracted by the more speculative aspects of Judaism..... An example of the way in which Jewish delight in such speculation led to the compilation of mythical histories based upon the Old Testament is found in the Jewish book of Jubilees."
The main difference between bone china and fine china is that bone china mixes cow bone ash into the ceramic material.Oh.
What's this have to do with the price of T-bones in China?
So unless we can show specific life forms every step of the way, you won't be convinced?

From the images of billions of fossils, how many can you show that were not complete, recognizable creatures? The biology "tree of life", there are many of them and not all of them are the same so which one is correct, with provable evidence, and which ones are incorrect?
So, any differences are the result of common designer, any similarities are the result of common design. Do you really not see what's wrong with this?
I've never understood how people can claim that similarities are a result of 'common design', but then not also argue that differences are a result of multiple designers.
I'm open to a discussion, time permitting, I don't know why I would need to agree to a particular set of unknown restraints beforehand though.
No, I will not be convinced unless folks have enough "evidence" they can use to answer my questions, which obviously you do not have since you did not answer the questions that I asked.

Answer all of my questions and you will become the authority I go to for answers to my questions, can you do that?
In my experience and IMO, most people that post in these forums are open to "discussing" a subject which is usually nothing more than each side presenting their talking points. Most reasonably intelligent people that have the skills to articulate their views can sound very convincing but that is not always the case when they are asked questions that challenge those views. I do not process the smarts or those skills so when someone states or implies my views are wrong, which they may well be, the only way they can convince me is to answer the questions that I ask and that does not mean only the ones they choose. In my mind, that is a way for me to level the playing field somewhat.
I do not understand your, "a particular set of unknown restraints", comment, do you see a request for both parties to answer all questions they may be asked as "restraints"? Am I asking someone to agree to something that I am not willing to agree to? Apparently, and like others, you are not all that enthused about being asked questions that you choose not to answer and I understand that.
If you have any questions that you'd like to ask me please go ahead,
Atoms do not change; molecules do, and that is what is involved in chemical reactions. The only way in which atoms change is in rearranging themselves to produce molecules of another substance.
I'm not sure what an "in between" species is exactly, what do you mean?
