    So the horse regresses while other animals progress to become fully logical human beings. Seems to me like you are wanting to have it both ways.

    Yes and you piss me off to the point where I just call you a moron. You know nothing about God. If you were smart, you'd just become an atheist and be done with it.

    I already explained that nature and nurture are two separate things.

    You seem to be under the incorrect impression that every creatures ultimate goal is to be as much like humans as possible. the reality is, All they want to do is stay alive. If a creature is perfectly suited to it's environment, like a crocodile or a shark, it has no way of evolving because the pressures of natural selection are going to be insignificant.

    I sometimes feel bad for ripping apart everything you say but you really don't have a clue what you are talking about. take some advice, Spend a couple of days reading up on evolution, and then start talking about it again.

    We do have some creationists asking question about the irreducible complexity of bacterial flagellum motors and their molecular construction in relation to evolution (which, while can be explained by evolution, is an interesting question). Then we have people like you asking why if you leave a horse in a field for 2 years it wont let you ride it again. I do pity you sometimes. :rolleyes:

    I actually laughed out loud typing that last paragraph. I had a moment where i realised the level that you operate at.

    The creationist/evolution debates should be interesting and taxing on the brain, But with you it's like kicking the shit out a dead dog, It's messy and it's ultimately going to serve no purpose.

    Yeah, that's really plausible: some evolve and some stay the same. You're a bit like a chameleon. Whatever position suits you. What I don't understand and maybe you can help me here is although according to atheists this planet is billions of years old you haven't found ONE single transitional form. Not one??? How do you figure that one?

    Things stay the same when they aren't broken. If it aint broke, dont fix it. Sharks? Aint broke. Been around for 100 million years.

    Would you recommend an apple wood smoke or something stronger like, say, mesquite? I mean, we're gonna eat them, no?

    They'd be nothing, but ashes...I'd say take a straw and snort them up.

    Of course some evolve and some stay the same. Evolution is powered by natural selection. If a creature has evolved to be well suited to it's environment (i.e it can eat and defend it's self against all predators) natural selection can't do anything. natural selection, For the time being at least, can't remove any possible negative traits and can't reinforce any possible positive ones. Natural selection will have to wait for a change in environment which causes members of the species with negative traits to be killed and members with positive traits to live, reproduce and pass on the possitive genes.

    What do you mean a transitional form? They are all transitional forms.
    I can find you lots of variations within the same species. You only have to look at humans. We have different coloured skin, Different coloured eyes, different heights, different intelligence, and different athletic ability.

    If something were to happen where one of those traits proved beneficial it would be reinforced through natural selection and it would become a prominent feature among all humans. The ones without the trait die and the ones with it breed.

    You don't think creatures instantaneously sprout wings or grow fully formed beaks do you?

    Your arguments against evolution are pitiful.

    I get it now: you close your mind to all possible evidence that challenges your view. You do this in order to arrive to the same conclusion despite any evidence or proof which is no matter what happens evolution is true because I don't really like the other alternative.

    So let me ask the question again: Where are the billions of transitional fossils that should be there if your theory is right? Billions! Not a handful of questionable transitions. Why don't we see a reasonably smooth continuum among all living creatures, or in the fossil record, or both?

    You haven't offered any evidence that challenges my view, You have just asked stupid questions about evolution. Questions that were pitifully easy to answer. If you want to challenge evolution i suggest you go and educate yourself on it first, Then you may understand why it is so easy for me to destroy everything you say. You are asking questions that your corner were asking 20 years ago. You were destroyed back then and you are being destroyed right now.

    I have already told you. All fossils are transitional fossils.
    But here's a list of fossils found that were in an obvious transitional phase.

    Well, that's just plain over-cooking them. You have to learn patience.

    Please patient and come down. A good way to persuade someone is that you give your evidence.
    For example: GOD never appear, no one really see GOD ==> GOD is not real. Who want to challenge you must find another way to prove you are wrong. ;)
