Madagascar and Australia, a question for creationists.

there is no limit for convergent evolution. anything is possible. including a bat wings.

No, once again, if a dog developed bat wings it would falsify the theory of evolution. I don't know why you are having such a hard time with such a simple concept.

 

[Speedwell]

But since you are having such difficulty with this, perhaps a more detailed explanation is called for. It is theoretically possible that the forelimb of a dog could evolve into a winglike structure capable of supporting flight. It might (and I stress the might) come to superficially resemble the wing of a bat, since both the dog and the terrestrial percursor of the bat are mammals. But unless it was morphologically and genetically identical to the wing of a bat, it could not be said to be a "bat wing." And if it was, the theory of evolution would essentially be falsified.

 

[USincognito]

again: false. if a dog will evolve a bird wings its also will be a convergent evolution.

Repeating false things about subjects you don't understand won't make them factual. Dogs with bird wings would falsify evolution - period.

6,000 years wouldn't quite be long enough for a super continent to break up, and its constituent parts to find themselves in their current positions. Britain is currently moving away from America at the rate of 2cm a year. So that's 0.00012km meters in 6,000 years.

It didn't quite just break up.

The video shows the oceans appearing after the land, whereas Genesis 1 says just the opposite.

So it's unbiblical and unscientific? Sometimes people just can't see the wood for the trees. It's a nice looking animation though.

Who is inside blowing it up?

 

[The Stamp]

Mountains form by the movements of tectonic plates which makes the earth rise, it also create volcanoes along the plate boundaries which also help to form mountains.

Unscientific is Biblical.

 

[Jimmy D]

Unscientific is Biblical.

How so?

 

[AV1611VET]

How so?

God did not use science to create the universe.

 

[Jimmy D]

God did not use science to create the universe.

How do you know?

 

[AV1611VET]

How do you know?

Because speaking the earth into existence isn't exactly what I call science ... do you?

And do you call the way He did it "science"?

(I can't believe we're having this discussion.)

 

[Jimmy D]

LOL, you started it!

How do you know God hates science so much anyway? He might be awfully angry at you at this moment.

God knows I hold science up to a Higher Standard than atheists won't go on principle.

 

[Jimmy D]

It's a shame you don't hold ancient literature to such high standards too, you might find it liberating.

you are welcome to believe anything you want. but i showed (and explain) why its a false belief.

I don't understand. Perhaps you could respond to my comment about it (post #362)
