New human-like species discovered in S Africa

I'm waiting for the amazing theory that blows macroevolution out of the water and explains how I got here.

I just realized, you're not actually taking issue with evolution. You seem to just have a bone to pick with atheistic evolution. Your objection seems to be more philosophical than scientific.

I have an issue with one of the evolutionary views.......Darwinist evolution.

Strangely, that view is not found in any science book.

Yes, and which part of it? What flaw do you see in it other than the philosophical one you've copy/pasted over and over again? What do you believe actually happened? If you want to convince me that he's wrong, then convince me. Tell me what the truth is.

Strangely, one cannot offer evidence for the view that humanity is nothing more than a sack of chemicals produced by only random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanisms.

Yet another view that is not found in any science book on the subject.

It's all philosophical. Darwinist evolutionary worldviews produces certain philosophical conclusions.

It's certainly part of the Darwinist worldview.

No, you please provide evidence, based on the scientific method, for the view that humanity was produced by a random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanism. Simply claiming the fossil record is evidence, without explanation, is no evidence.

If you have Netflix, Neil Shubin's 3 part documentary "Your Inner Fish" Will coherently guide your though the evidence. It's a great educational watch. I suggest you check it out.

And every thread on this site, going by your post count. I'm surprised you have time to read anything else.

I can increase my post count by 500 before you're done watching Mr. Ed.

 

[Loudmouth]

It's certainly part of the Darwinist worldview.

Yet another baseless assertion.

All you have done is erect a strawman. You aren't addressing the actual theory.

 

[Cearbhall]

Where's your flawless scientific evidence that all of life we observe today is the result of only random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanisms?

There ain't none.

The fossil record does not offer evidence, based on the scientific method, that all of life was created by a random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanism.
The human chromosome #2 does not offer evidence, based on the scientific method, that all of life was created by a random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanism.
There are no observable studies that all of life was created by a random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanism.

I'm waiting for evidence for the worldview that we're simply a sack of chemicals produced by random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanism.

Can you please try to allow the conversation to move forward? We're well-aware that you have a problem with this by now. Make an acronym of this and stick it in your signature, if you must.

I have Netflix, but would you point out an example of random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanisms producing humanity?

 

[justlookinla]

The conversation would move forward with the evidence being presented. Until then, the conversation will continue to be one of finding evidence, based on the scientific method, that humanity was produced by random, mindless, meaningless, purposeless and goalless mechanisms.

You're giving a philosophical objection. This is a hard science board. I don't think anyone here is really interested in debating the meaning of life. I'm sorry if you feel the need to post the same thing over and over in the wrong board because you didn't get a response.

The documentary will clear that up for you. If I posted all the evidence of evolution in one post, it would be a gish gallop and that isn't fair to you. There is plenty of independent research you can do. I provided you an excellent source. Watch it. If anything it will help you strengthen your arguments and get you asking better questions.

You are the one making the positive claims. The burden of proof lies with you.

Darwinist evolution isn't a scientific view, it's a philosophical one.

You're the one making the claim that humanity is the result of only naturalistic mechanisms, aren't you?

Summarize it for me.

That's not a philosophical claim. It's the lack of one. Now, if you would like to add a philosophical or theological view to the science of it, feel free. Theistic evolution is compatible with reality.
