Let's see your math. Just a warning. Be aware of the Sharpshooter Fallacy.

Texas sharpshooter fallacy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Seriously. Do you even know what evolution is?



Nature has already ran the process, and it does work that way.



Is that like the process that produces human babies? If not, then why use this analogy?

The complex processes that produce a human baby were designed just like the operating system that allows you to type messages and view this forum.

You seem to think those processes designed and programmed themselves. That is illogical and not according to science. Every piece of evidence points to an ID.

The flood was local, thus animals from all over the world didn't need to be preserved.

Which doesn't work for fundamentalists, but overall does make more sense and is much more likely. Given that the mountains were submerged, to believe in a flood that could do that is to believe in a global flood, because for the waters to rise that high anywhere it would affect more than just the local area.

I wouldn't say it's the only process, but it does mix things up. There's also geographic isolation when population get separated. There's also natural selection, mutations, genetic drift.

All of which apply to evolution. To believe that all of those processes occur is to essentially agree with basic evolutionary theory.

Then chihuahuas are a new kind since they no longer look like wolves.

But the parent of anyone chihuahua looks like its young. And if we go back a thousand generations we will find the same thing. And if we go back a million generations we will find the same thing, but it is dubious that those last two would be considered wolves today.

Skywriting's beliefs support evolution. He just does not understand his beliefs.

Marsupials are not only rabbit like, they are also mouse like, bear like, mole like, cat like, squirrel like, anteater like and large kangaroo like ( 1.8 m tall and weighs up to 85 kg(187 lb)) Fossils suggest some marsupials were hippopotamus sized, furthermore, many marsupials are carnivores which are not usually eaten by man - Why would they bring marsupials that were not suitable for eating? Why did they not bring placentals that are suitable for eating?

They are all those things; beasts and swarming things. But no cattle marsupials.

It's an interesting question. If a placental rabbit mixed with a rabbitlike marsupial, would their offspring be marsupial or placental?

Like I said, everything that existed in Australia before the flood was destroyed by the flood. So the animals that are there today are new animals.

When the animals left the ark after the flood, they bred and multiplied and changed. And man hunted them and bred them for food. Then men brought them to the Americas and eventually to Australia by boat.

So their seed and their kind was kept alive in the ark. Australia, because it was so isolated and there were no predators, because they had all been destroyed, became a perfect environment for the various kinds of marsupials we see.

That is a foolish question. Rabbits and marsupials cannot cross breed.

If you could accomplish this it would be a feat that would be worthy of a Nobel Prize.

And surely you don't believe that the Flood really happened? That myth was busted hundreds of years ago.

When Genesis 6 talks about the earth being corrupt, it is talking about humans being corrupt and evil, not animals interbreeding outside their kinds.

I can't even begin to understand how someone could think that rabbits and opossums could breed and create a kangaroo.

It says, 'all flesh had corrupted their way'. That includes the animals he created. Otherwise why destroy the animals if they were not corrupted? By corrupted we have to understand they mixed with one another.

Of course I believe in the flood. All Christians believe in the flood. This is a Christian site. Get used to it.
