QV my tagline.No, it's because science.
Are you of that silly camp that thinks 99.99% certain is the same as 0% certain? Good one, Sye Ten Bruggencate...When you use "must have happened," "If they occurred," "This is almost certainly" and other such phrase of doubt, it makes what you offer as proof doubtful.
Where does the 'law of genetics' say anything, let alone 'impossible'? Also, not entirely sure how to refute incredulous huffing.To claim all life, animal, fish, birds, and humans and plants originated from one source, and you have no idea what that source was, is not only absurd, it can't be proved and the laws of genetics say it is impossible.
So tell me how a God with no body, no genes at all for bodies and no need for bodies, or worlds, or universes for that matter produce a living body with genes.So tell me how a life or with no bones, not gene for bones and no need for bones produce a kid with bones.
Please include how the first life form originated from lifeless elements.
Also tell me what the first lie form evolved into and the science that cause it to evolve.
There is No doubt in the Scientific Community - on Survival, it Absolutely Is a mechanism for change! If two gazelles are born, one a tawny colour that melds in quite nicely with the savanna plains, and the other a hot fluorescent pink with bright orange glittery stars - have a wild guess at which one will likely be spotted, chased down and eaten by predators and which one will be likely to blend in with its environment to have further offspring? If you have no idea, you have no place being here on this part of the forum.Even if what you say is true and there is a lot of doubts in it, Surviving is not a mechanism for a change of species.
There's an otter, it isn't extinct, has paws, runs on land and primarily eats food that isn't on land, so there it is.And the ancestor of the whale could have been similar to an otter.
Pot calling the Silverware black...What you tell me is that you can only whine about something you don't understand and can't produce any evidence for what evo fundies have believed by faith alone.
Self-deception much?News flash, unless you can proved what they say is wrong and what you accept by faith alone is true, guess who is lying.
Not sterile in the least. They all breed with their like just fine, they don't breed with the other end of the ringspecies chain. Address that part please...They are only incompatible for one reason--some of them can no longer mate and produce kids. Becoming sterile does not make a new species. I also understand that all of them did not become sterile.
The Very Definition of Species is that they don't interbreed! The two ends of a Ringspecies don't interbreed, yet breed quite heartily with their own, and the connected subspecies beside it!All life forms, animals and plants descend from the species they are. Dogs descend from dogs and corn descends from corn. Corn always produces the same variety of corn. If dogs are the same breed, they will have a kid exactly the same species as they are. If the breeds are different, they will have a different variety of dog because bull dogs and collies are both dogs.
This is Demonstrably false. You've been presented with evidence galore which you either "don't understand, so pick something out of the peer reviewed article to look at" or "it's just your opinion/cartoon pictures for kids" - you've never actually addressed the evidence, let alone countered it with anything meaningful. I contend it is a waste of time engaging you at all.It is a waste of time to present me with opinions. It is not a waste of time to present me with verifiable evidence.
Nowhere in the Bible is Jonah's fish called a "whale."Actually I got it backward.
Jonah 1:17 Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
Matthew 12:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
I beg your pardon?Nowhere in the Bible is Jonah's fish called a "whale."
For the second time:Chapter and verse?
Cheetahs are their own kind and all 4 legged animals have some dogf-like features---4 legs.
So, you do not understand that there is a difference between unfalsifiable (e.g., creationism) and not yet falsified?
You have had over 100 years to falsify it and can't. That should tell you something.
Mistranslation of the underlying Greek ketos which means "great fish" just like the Hebrew of the OT.For the second time:
Matthew 12:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Have you seen humans created?
That's odd. Because Habilis was here and died out a million years before humans. How can you possibly claim he was created 2 days after humans?
You just ignoring the evidence?
That's odd, because brain size has been shown to have increased incrementally in hominids over several million years. If suddenly--KABOOM--there were new creatures with bigger brains, why does the fossil record not confirm your claim?
If Jesus called a whale a fish, then he was mistaken.
The Bible doesn't specifically says "whales" (KJV) it calls it a big fish (back then the word mammal didn't exist, it's just a man made term which came later on). However, it could have been a whale, we just don't know. Just like, the fruit that Adam and Eve ate off the tree of "the Knowledge of Good and Evil" was probably not an apple. We just don't know what it was.Actually I got it backward.
Jonah 1:17 Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
Matthew 12:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Thanks for confirming that there is NO evidence of implanting the superior intelligence, which ONLY God and Adam have, Gen 3:22 into any other creature.
God gave creatures just ONE way to change the intelligence of their offspring and that is through inheritance.
Godless evolution falsely assumes that God's superior intelligence can be magically evolved. That is the biggest false assumption in Science and requires Blind Faith in the concept of "godless evolution".
Do you understand how babies are made? If so you should know that becoming sterile would lead to extinction.Becoming sterile does not make a new species.
That is quite a low-bar criterion.
So according to you, a Komodo dragon is like a dog?
Take a course in remedial reading.
Yes - it really does.
It tells me that evolution is likely NOT FALSE. Because evolution IS falsifiable, but has not been falsified, whereas creationism - being a scam - is unfalsifiable and therefore a mere fantasy.
I'm guessing that you did not even notice that you trolled yourself into a big old fail.
Are you of that silly camp that thinks 99.99% certain is the same as 0% certain? Good one, Sye Ten Bruggencate...

So tell me how a God with no body, no genes at all for bodies and no need for bodies, or worlds, or universes for that matter produce a living body with genes.
Please include how a God originated from a nothingness before lifeless elements were even a thing.
Also tell me why the first God existed and the science that cause it to exist.

Pigeon Chess.
Uh no, creatures at other ends of a ring species are not sterile. Those at each end of the ring can breed with members on their end, but not with members on the other end. So if you agree that all the members of a ring species began from one species, then, if the members in the middle disappear, you are left with two species. That is the mechanism by which one species can begin, and end up with two species, and we are seeing that in progress.
Do you ever include the evidence for your dogmatic statements?
Uh when did wild poodles roam the earth? Hint--it never happened. Rather, all modern dogs descended from a breed of wild dogs. And that involved a lot of differences as time went on.
So no, it is not poodles all the way back to Adam.
