It might appear I often counter AV's post but that's only because his claims are a unique combination of being the most ridiculous while also being the easiest to refute.
So, getting back to the topic, has there ever been anything found which evolution says is impossible? Anything that actually falsifies evolution?
I lol'd!That's funny, because if a kangaroo would indeed suddenly give birth to an aligator I think it would convince more atheists to seriously consider the possibility of a god.
There are plenty of possibilities, but thus far no. Nor are we likely to.
Plenty of possibilities? Such as?
Why spend time trying to prove something to be false that has not yet been proven to be true. I think that's the real challenge; it must first be proven to be true.Evolution is a scientific theory. That means a few things.
- It means that it is an explanation which was formed by examining the evidence available.
- it means that it makes predictions about things we don't yet know.
- And it means that it is falsifiable.
While there is great scope for discussion on each of those three points, I'd like this thread to deal with solely the last point. The falsifiability of evolution.
First of all, let's make sure we all know what I mean when i say that evolution is falsifiable.
I mean that some evidence, some piece of information can be shown that is unable to be explained by evolution - indeed, the evolution says is impossible - thus showing that evolution is false.
An example of this is a fossil of a bunny in the precambrian. Evolutonary theory says that rabbits could not possibly have been alive in the precambrian period. Thus, finding an authentic fossil rabbit in precambrian rocks would nicely show that evolution can't possibly be true.
Therein lies my challenge.
Given a valid understanding of the theory of evolution, can anyone provide any evidence for something which has falsified evolution?
As far as I am aware, no such evidence has ever been found. However, creationists love to point out that evolution can't be correct. Well, here's your chance. If you claim that evolution is false, show us where it has been falsified.

A lot of innocent people were condemned to death based on so called evidence.Think ofhow it would work in court. the prosecution tries to show beyond a reasonable doubt that you are guilty.
He has a mass of evidence, all of it all of it says you are guilty as sin.
Ok! You will be convicted, if you just say "oh it is not PROVEN to be true; why should i submit any evidence against it?"
Also, please.... this is old as the hills.... science never proves any theory. Never will. That is not how reality works. But, the theory behind your computer seems to work very well. if you want to say the theory is false, and therefore your comp does not work, go ahead.
prove it.
But... that's not... you can't... it doesn't...Why spend time trying to prove something to be false that has not yet been proven to be true. I think that's the real challenge; it must first be proven to be true.

The evidence was not the problem; it was man's ignorance in trying to understand the evidence.
Man is just as ignorant when it comes to his efforts to understand the so called evidence for evolution.
The evolution of man from beast is impossible to prove. We can only speculate on so called evidence.No, when Tiberius says "falsified evolution" he's referring to the scientific definition of a theory - a theory is something which has to be falsifiable, like the theory of evolution in its current form. He then asks for examples of actual data which does this.
And evolution has already been proven beyond reasonable doubt
When you can show me a man evolving from some kind of animal then I'll be convince about evolution.Well suit yourself. But you are just saying that out of total and coimplete ignorance. Unless you care to be specific? name something that is being misunderstood? The fact that you refer to it as "so called" says to me that you cant come up with anything.
You seem to be describing a new brand of evolution other than the one Darwin described.Its already true enough that millions of people entrust their health to it on a regular basis, yourself included. How much more 'proven' do you require?
Well, yes: we've developed heavily since Darwin. 140 years if a long time...You seem to be describing a new brand of evolution other than the one Darwin described..

Evolution is just a whole bunch of speculation beyond a reasonable doubt.
