Re: I Don't Understand Evolutionists

Sharks don't grow legs and run on the beach because they can survive in the water. If sharks ran out of food, the sharks that could access food from other places would live longer and create more children. Theoretically lets say there is one shark who can spend 10 minutes on land and another can spend 16 minutes on land, then the shark who spends more time on land gets more food. It's ability to survive on land is passed on to it's children because sharks breed through meiosis which allows variation to occur. The children of the shark who can survive on land longer keep increasing the time they can survive for until they could live comfortably on land. If they stayed on land for long periods, their offspring over many generations until it could develop legs to capture more food. Now this is a very unlikely scenario and would take maybe millions of years to happen but this is basically how evolution works.

So conceivably, you could put a million fish on the beach and expect at least one of them to survive, and its offspring to do the same. Gee, why hasn't any scientist ever tried this?

Evolution seems so simple to prove, and yet no one ever has.

I can't make head nor tail of if you're trying to say Evilution is real or not in that gobbledygook. Except it obviously isn't because God made all the critters Himself. Read your Bible, sonny. Now run along to your daddy for the beating that little lot has earned you.

Re: I Don't Understand Evolutionists

Natural selection (and therefore evolution) does not work randomly. It is based on the non-random probability of survival and fertility resulting from random mutations of genes. Humans are special and different in quite a few ways from most animals on the earth. What makes us special is how large our frontal lobe is, that is the biological reason for our intelligence.

Mutations, aye? Then why don't sharks mutate into having legs to run along the beach to get food? Surely there are enough mostly-naked food sources there? And why isn't there a half-elephant/half-mosquito mutation?

Can mutations save your soul? Can they forgive your sins? Can mutations bring you into the exuberant joys of Heaven?

I think not.

I guess if they don't have brains, I guess the next best thing we have is opposable thumbs.

Make your mind up: is it random or not? How can probability be random? Is 1/10 random?

This just shows the paucity of scientific integrity of the youngsters, these days.

Stop arguing with yourself, dear. God created everything you just have to turn to page one of your Bible to see it (Genesis 1: 1) it was not random, and not in the way you explained, God created everything the way it is now.

Re: I Don't Understand Evolutionists

According to evolution, all life is one random mistake after another. The evolutionist therefore naturally believes the only thing that makes mankind special is opposable thumbs. How sad.
