It's a very relevant question since there is no discernible survival distinction afforded by chins. No other animal has one.

Wrong, you can discern no "survival distinction" (by the way, rule #1, no made up terms). That does not mean that no one can. So are you claiming that chins are magical?

I couldn't care less what you seem to remember. If you would like, let's have a formal debate on the subject. Since you don't offer anything of substance here, you must be saving it for that. We'll see who the fool is then.

Rude and wrong is a very bad way to start. If you can't be honest enough to apologize I don't really seen any point in debating.

How about it?
Sure, but we would have to agree to some rule first. We can't do this haphazard. How are you going to back up your claims? How am I going to be allowed to back up my claims. I have a huge distaste for sites that tell their workers that they cannot use the scientific method. Such sites are worthless in debates.

I suppose you think acting like a pompous jackass keeps you from having to support your absurd "information" canard?

No I was imitating the average atheist, as I said. Pompous jackass is a whole different motivation...

Rude and wrong is a bad way to welcome a new member too. I gave back what I was given. If you want me to apologize for you calling me a fool - keep dreaming.

This site has a procedure for formal moderated debates. Back up your claims however you like. It's up to the observers whether you have made your case or not.

But I am neither. And I see honesty is a quality that you lack. I won't waste my time with such a person.

Evolution does deal with psychology or maybe I should say that psychology does deal with evolution via comparative psychology. Darwin published a book on emotion in animals. Also, it is inaccurate to say evolution doesn't deal with improvements. If the improvements lead to a qualitative change in the life of the organism, then yes, that is evolution at work.

Hmmm right. Okay, I'll play along this once. Show me where I was dishonest and I will certainly apologize for that.

I don't agree at all with your post on evolution, Jacksbratt. Fact is, evolution is one of the best-supported theories in science. To a professional scientist, the fossil record is a valuable record of evolution. Also, it sure seems strange to me how you could be right and all these scientists wrong.

Nope, go back over the posts and it is obvious. I am not doing your homework for you. The explanation was there. If you missed it that is your fault not mine. I really don't feel like doing a formal debate and will not do one with the average creationist.

Ha ha ha okay. I will say I'm not average or a creationist. But that's fine, you wouldn't feel good about getting schooled in circles either. Ha ha!

Just to be fair, I will look back over the posts and try to find where you might think I was being dishonest.

You seem pretty average to me so far. You make poor arguments and cannot understand the refutations. It sounds like the Dunning Kruger is extremely strong with you.

Right ha ha, well there is certainly a way to find out, right??

Your tired refutations mostly amount to similar insults to the ones you are offering in this post. I can assure you that if we were in the same room you would not speak to me so disrespectfully.

I generally measure my arguments to the capacities of my interlocutors. I think I misjudged in this case.

Why on Earth do you think I would not laugh at your ignorance if you prated it in front of me?

Is that because you realize that I will not buy into your nonsense? You do realize that your "information" nonsense is an old refuted one, don't you? Why not try to come up with something new?
