I am done posting it now. You can respond...

Well done. I'd recommend you go back and change your URLs to hyperlinks though making it easier for readers to take them.

They were all links, all you have to do is click on them. They weren't underlined or colored differently though I suppose.

Ah you're right. I didn't notice it until I put my courser over them.

It's a great post, but i can't give you any praise for it. As you said, it was someone else's post. Although it is thorough and conclusive, there is way too much information for anyone to take the effort to respond to it. So now, you've done no work, except hitting ctrl-c and ctrl-v, and any YEC who could respond would need to take weeks to go through it point by point.

Having said that i am glad the post is here for reference. Some of the pictures are very useful and i'm sure i'll use them in the future.

too bad after all that posting the atheist did that there are no bones linking apes to humans -- not mention no way molecular explanation. The evidence for human evolution never quite pans out for evolutionists, as bad as they want it to.
Are you serious? Did you read it? There are many transitional phases between apes and humans. How many do you need? Also I would like to point out the picture that I did post, showing the gradual transition from the chimpanzee skull to the modern human one.

no there are not. There is nothing linking homo erectus with austalopithecus. I bolded a joke of a statement.

What I would recommend is that any creationist wanting to respond to a specific point open a new thread to discuss that point. Otherwise this thread will quickly become a train wreck.

F.B.
I just did....I'm challenging anyone to show me a transitional between humans and apes. Humans, otherwise called Neanderthals and homo erectus by evolutionists have no ancestors. And the atheist's statement about chimp skulls leading to human skulls is laughable and PROVES he has no clue what he is talking about.

Wow, they must have changed the definition of human on me since a few hours ago.

Modern humans are called Homo Sapiens. Our ancestors include homo erectus, and we have common ancestors with Neanderthals, but they are not us. I am talking about modern humans, by the way.

I have posted a picture (originally posted by someone else) with the skull of a chimp, leading up to the skull of a Homo sapien, with 12 transitionals.

Really? And truly? Aw shucks, you've got us.

But maybe you can 'splain why scientists use common descent as the basis for the metholodgy used in comparative genomics. And why even private industry uses it, including this example regarding AIDS research.

Just wondering is all...

It should be noted that the 'ape skulls' picture in question does not show any kind of proposed precise ancestry. There is no taxonomy in which P. troglodytes is an ancestor of H. sapiens.

What the photo is best used for is demonstrating the difficulty of drawing a defensible distinction between Homo and related genera. Without the labels, only a seasoned expert would be able to place each skull in the correct genus, let alone identify each one precisely.

We should not therefore say that the skulls are transitionals per se, but they are definite morphological intermediates.
