Proving that Links Exist

[Job 33:6]

Interesting that creationists have mostly ignored this thread. And by interesting I mean entirely predictable.

Sometimes silence says just as much as meaningless jabber and topic derailment.

But yes, I couldn't respond 20 years ago or 10 years ago, and they can't respond today.

When I read a book it is always best to skip every other page. That way all books are shorter and make zero sense.

Who needs books (plural) when you have the bible

What should children learn in school? It's a question that's stirred debate for decades, and in 1974 it led to violent protests in West Virginia. Schools were hit by dynamite, buses were riddled with bullets, and coal mines were shut down. The fight was over a new set of textbooks.

I hope so!

But what good is all your education without the Light?

Nice try.

However, the West Virginia Council of Churches supported the books.

It's our education that allows us to recognize light when we see it, and how detect mushroom food when we see it.

 

[driewerf]

I hope so!

But what good is all your education without the Light?

It allows us to produce light.

@Humble_Disciple , this thread is for you too.

You do know that it's not officially called the "Precambrian Era" anymore, don't you?

Still a thing. But there are sub-categories...

Nice chart.

I can do that too.

I can do that too.

Mine has evidence for all of it, not just some of it.

Mine has Truth behind it.

And at the end of the day, we have a fossil succession which demonstrates that all fossils are transitional and make up this larger order of fish>amphibian>reptiles>mammal/bird, and cambrian > Devonian> carboniferous > Triassic/Jurassic, with fish/amphibians of the devonian (ex. Tiktaalik), amphibian/reptile transitions in the carboniferous/permian (ex. Frogamander), reptile/mammal transitions in the permian-triassic (ex therapsids) and reptile/bird transitionals in the jurassic (ex archaeopteryx and other theropod/bird hybrids).

And then further there is a fossil succession in plants and of course other invertebrates and basically anything that can produce fossils falls within this order.

People who deny evolution or are young earth Creationists, typically just try to deny all of this information. But for those who actually study the topic, it's really not even remotely questionable. It's as simple and as well understood as concepts such as the sun being hot.

Some go so far as to claim fossils are
planted by Saran to deceive.
Others, that they are carved fakes, done
by agents of Satan.

Or, that they all lived at the ssme time and
and them ( falsely so called " svientists")
just line them up in a way to look like
a progression.

I had to find out what that was about.

No need to try vety hard. For those without
intellectual integrity, theres nothing that cant be
believed, or made up and presented as fact.
The less education and integrity, the easier.

Or, that they all lived at the same time and and them (falsely so called "scientists") just line them up in a way to look like
a progression.

This.

And while I don't believe all the species lived at the same time, I do believe God created all the genera (kinds) at once.

Were dinosaurs on the Ark?

Absolutely.

Right along with unicorns, satyrs, and dragons.

 

[AV1611VET]

No need to try very hard.

I agree.

Leave the hard work to the scientists.

They have to chisel, force-fit, move the decimal place, and program their computers to achieve consilience.

Then they have to go back and sandpaper the rough spots, so as to make everything look seamless on paper.

For those without intellectual integrity, there's nothing that can't be believed,

Including believing what academia tells them?

... or made up and presented as fact.

Including what academia presents as fact?

Such as Pluto being our ninth planet?

The less education and integrity, the easier.

Yup.

We idjits got it easy.
