There are many other reasons for one to reject evolution. It is not proven in sciences.
Nothing is proven in Science, not even the electrical transistor gated logic device you used to communicate with people all over the world instantaneously just now... but it's because of science you have that.

Unless you wish to actually answer the question and explain how a "transitional fossil" is to be distinguished from a "non-transitional fossil", then you should simply not reply.

Do you know what is the essence of taphonomy? The idea is critical to fossil preservation. (so it is critical to understand the meaning of "transitional")

Good. Evolution is a model in science. So you know what does it mean.

Yes, the point in the OP stands.
No, it doesn't. It is based on (as I thought we agreed) undefined or not clearly defined terms, so the OP is in and of itself unclear.

If he wants to define his terms then present evidence for his thesis, sure we can discuss, but until then, there isn't an argument to respond to.

It is a side point in the theme of the OP. The term could be defined better. But it is not necessary for the main message. Someone is digging into this side point and I am clarifying it now.

@Heissonear said that there are "no transitionals".
I asked him to define what he means by "transtionals" and what criteria distinguish a "transitional" from a "non-transitional".

Either answer to question or don't reply.

I am trying to help you to understand the term, but you don't want it. Suit yourself, you will not know what you are talking about.

If so, what is the origin of human? Use words that you do understand.

No thanks. The scientific understanding of human origins is well documented.

I originally was addressing the OP when you chipped in suggesting that there are scientific reasons for rejecting the TOE. You have yet to demonstrate that this is the case, other than to state your ignorance of a particular area of study.

Who are these people rejecting the TOE for "other" reasons?
