Evolution-vs-Intelligent Design - See if anyone can intelligently answer these...?

Question

If evolution is true...

Then why do males have nipples?

Why do animals, taken from the wild, and made into every possible hybrid imaginable, always revert back to their original state...when left alone?

Why aren't there thousands of species of intermediates, with scales, feathers and fins (actually there should be billions)?

Why does every crossing of species only take place by the hand of man, but not in the wild?

Why does every hybrid species only produce a sterile/infertile mutation that soon does out?

Why do they say it takes billions of years for a creature to go from a water-based life, with fins and gills, to a land-based one, with legs and lungs...when a certain species of frog in Africa can do it in 4 days?

Why is the DNA of a rattlesnake closer to that of humans than a chimpanzee?

Why is the smartest species of animal a bird, and not an ape?

If intelligent-design creationism is impossible, then where did the idea of God come from?

Yes, 'foulman', i can easily answer them.
If you'd like to know more, you can easily email me: truebeliever_777ATyahoo.com

Excuse me, 'redhotimmaturepup', but "proven logic" cannot explain the last question (and neither can you).

Yes, 'aidamaria g', good point.
Darwin only observed MICRO-Evolution, which is when animals make slight changes to adapt to their surroundings. This is easily observed in nature...
but never will we see one species changing into another (except in Hollywood movies). That is called MACRO-Evolution, and has never been observed.
You are correct, it is nothing but the figment of a nut's imagination.
And ROMANS chapter 1 tells all about what these nuts have produced.
God bless you!
:)

No my dear, 'ndmagicman', i think it is you that needs to study more...and maybe rely less on those "magical ideas".
Hint, hint!?!
African Grey parrots, Ravens, Crows and several other species of birds have been proven to have signifigantly advanced intellects than any species of ape.
And yes, a Rattlesnakes DNA is closer to that of a human's than a chimpanzee.
Do a little research.
Yes, frogs can stay out of water, but not as tadpoles...unless of course, you been doin some of those "magic" mushrooms...!?
Stay away from drugs my friend.

My dear 'danny', if i read the Quran, i would get more confusion than an athiest does from read the The Origin Of Species
No thanks, my poor Muslim friend. I wil stick with the Truth of God's Holy Word.
The Holy Bible.

'roc', my dear and intelligent friend, you surely did hit the nail on the head!
And that was something i wanted to add too...
They say that man evolved some 2-4 million years ago...from a species like the chimpanzee. And that the chimp also lived at the same time.
So, why then did not the chimpanzee also evolve?
There are so many questions evolutionists cannot answer...it's not even funny.
It's just their excuse for not wanting to except they are sinners that need God's forgiveness.
You are right, it's a lie from Satan. He is their god. The god of this evil generation.
God bless you.

'spamandham', go spam someone else.
Your attempt at explaning these are weak.
For one thing, it was Eve that was made from Adam. Not the other way around.
One of the names of God means, 'The Many Breasted One'. The breast is symbolic of our need of one who can supply us.
If we all evolved from females, then why is the male stronger of the two?
Why is he the main provider or protector?
Why is he the head or ruler?
The questions can go on and on...
And logic would tell us that if MACRO-Evolution were true, then there'd either have to be LITERALLY billions of intermediate species, or only one or two species...since it makes no sense that an original, single-celled organism would have any need to evolve into several species. And even to start, where did it get it's food? It would had to have consumed itself.
How rediculous a theory.
MACRO-Evolution is a joke.
Good luck with that.
;)

Here's an other one for all the great, intellectual minds of Darwinism...
There are species of wasps that depend entirely on the species of a certain plant for survival...and vice-versa. As a matter of fact, science says that without the plants existance, the wasp could not exist. And vice-versa...the plant could not exist without the wasp.
There is no way to explain this without admittance of intelligent design.
(Unless you're tripping on acid or something. Come to think of it, Darwin and most of his colleagues were drug addicts :)

- the idea of god evolved from sun worship. That's why god is said to reside in heaven (which used to be a synonym for 'sky'). This is actually well documented. 7 is a recurrent number in religions because there are 7 'nonfixed' celestial objects visible to the unaided eye (sun, moon, mercury, venus, mars, jupiter and saturn). 12 is an important religious number because there are approximately 12 lunar cycles in a year. All ancient religions evolved from reverence for the sun, and ancient astronomy.

Okay smarty, then explain this...
First of all, that does not explain where the idea of CREATION came from, as evolution and creation are different.
If man THOUGHT IT UP, then where did he get the idea FROM (if creationism doesn't actually exist)?
Maybe it's too difficult a question for you.

Here's yet another question...
If the universe created itself by some sort of evolution of a big bang (or whatever rediculous theory!?), and there is no such thing as an Intelligent Designer then explain this...
If an architect wants to build a house, do the blueprints draw themself?
Does the house build itself?
Or better yet, if a computer engineer wants to build a complex machine, such as a computer, can it design itself? Does it build itself?
Can you not see how preposterous & weak your theory is?

'Raed M',
"nature tends for disorganisation"
Yes, you are right...sort of. Nature does not tend towards disorganization, but it would be if there was no highyer power to control it...or who designed it be in order.
How can nature organize itself?
Who organized it?

Here's another one i challenge anyone to try an answer...
Say for example we take an apple tree. In the winter the sap runs down into the ground. The tree seemingly dies or, "hybernates".
The leaves fall off, the branches die, and it produces no fruit.
Then , when Spring comes around, the life of the sap goes back up thru the roots, and thru the trunk, and produces new branches, leaves, blossoms and then fruit.
My question for you is...what intelligence told that sap to do that?

"Why do animals, taken from the wild, and made into every possible hybrid imaginable, always revert back to their original state...when left alone?

because they DON'T. Not sure wher you are getting your info from but i gurantee if you take a mule and put it in the wild, it would still be a mule. If you put a Liger in the wild it would still be a Liger."

Okay, then explain how you can take wild dogs, known as wolves, and get over 500 different "hybrid" varities from them?
Same for cats.
Same for tropical fish (esp, guppies and other live-bearing toothed carps).

Besides, a mule will not keep producing mules. They are sterile and will die out. Same for any other hybrids.
They will either revert back to their original, wild state or die out.
To say that they'll evolve into another completely different species is science fiction.
It has never been observed or proven, and never will be.
MACRO-Evolution is a joke.

'indeepthought' also said...

"For starters , I question the validity of some of these questions. I highly doubt rattlesnake DNA is closer to humans than apes. I looked hard for a source for this and found nothing. Most of the questions show a lack of understanding how evolution would theoretically work."

The exact same could be said for your explanations my friend.

Maybe you need to 'think' a little 'deeper'? ;)

Dear 'wtfh4xlol111',
Hmmm, on 2nd thought, never mind. You've embarassed yourself enough.

'picard' said...

"males have nipples because nipples don't get in the way. there is no reason a man with a nipple would have a smaller chance of survival then a man without nipples."

Hmmm, and this you call LOGIC?

Please, everyone stop laughing. He did try.

Yes "Captain", the only place you see evolution observed is on Star Trek.
Good luck with that. ;)

By the way, if all life evolved from a single-celled organism...or from some highly immune bacteria...with an enormously advanced ability to survive extreme cold, heat and the utter vacuum of space, and yet, evolution says that we evolve into species that are able to survive better with each stage...and yet, a single celled-organism, that had no outside source of food, and apparently had no need to evolve...then why did it evolve?
Would a creature with such amazing abilites evolve into a lessor creature with so many dependencies?
Like that movie, 'The Thing', where the alien takes on human forms to survive.
Why would something so advanced need to evolve into a creature with less abilities?
Would that not be the OPPOSITE of evolution?
MACRO-evolution is a joke.

Answer 1

Intelligent Design is all about us, we can see it, feel it ,sense it, and are always in awe of it , because we were all created! Everything is in order and not one of us can EVER create anything comparable to this beautifull universe we all share and love. Evolution is a theory of some nut who was lost on an island and had nothing better to do ,but observe the turtles , Darwin ? yes ,it was him, and WHAT do we know of this English man? that only this banana of evolution is being shoved down our childrens souls with the dire consequenses we have seen.

Answer 2

For starters , I question the validity of some of these questions. I highly doubt rattlesnake DNA is closer to humans than apes. I looked hard for a source for this and found nothing. Most of the questions show a lack of understanding how evolution would theoretically work.

I'm not exactly an "evolutionist" but i can take a crack at some of these questions:


Then why do males have nipples? For the same reason that males and females have MOST body parts in common. we all start off physically as females. without the ability to genetically test, one could not physically tell a male embryo from a female one. This question actually supports evolution more than debunks it.


Why do animals, taken from the wild, and made into every possible hybrid imaginable, always revert back to their original state...when left alone?

because they DON'T. Not sure wher you are getting your info from but i gurantee if you take a mule and put it in the wild, it would still be a mule. If you put a Liger in the wild it would still be a Liger.

Why aren't there thousands of species of intermediates, with scales, feathers and fins (actually there should be billions)?

evolution is not a sci-fi movie. plants and animals are what they are. even as they evolve, they are in a constant state of what they are now, not an intermediate step to somethbing else. there is no halfway species. To put it in persepctived, your parents do not necessarily look like an intermediate version of you and your grandparents.

Why does every crossing of species only take place by the hand of man, but not in the wild?

1) That's not true. There have been cases of spontaneous mating across species.

2) it's irrelevent because hybrids often result in sterile offspring who would not fit into the evolution equation.


Why does every hybrid species only produce a sterile/infertile mutation that soon does out?

once again, evolution theory bases very little on hybrids so this question has nothign to do with evolution.


Why do they say it takes billions of years for a creature to go from a water-based life, with fins and gills, to a land-based one, with legs and lungs...when a certain species of frog in Africa can do it in 4 days?

nowhere in any of darwin's theoris does it state that all abilitis must occur over billions of years. some adaptations are rapid and others are not. in outr lifetime we have witnessed species make radical adaptations.

Why is the smartest species of animal a bird, and not an ape?

once again these type of questions seem to show a lack of fundamental understanding of evoltion theory. althnough i would like to see a source of your claim that a bird is the smartest species, i will for sake of argument say it is true. it is also irrelevent since NOWHERE does evolution theory claim that apes are inherrently smarter than other animals. although, in theory, man would have descended from a primate that would have been smarter than most primates, understand that those extinct species are not the same as current primates.

If intelligent-design creationism is impossible, then where did the idea of God come from?

it's not impossible. just not provable. it is simply religion in disguise. humans, being intelligent can imagine anything be it true or false. god could have come from :

1) an actual god
2) people trying to explain what they did not understand
3) who knows


Bottomline is your questions were far from impartial. i believe all theories should come under scrutiny, but you should at least cite a source when you are basing questions off of things that don't properly represent the opposing side.

Answer 3

1. males have nipples because nipples don't get in the way. there is no reason a man with a nipple would have a smaller chance of survival then a man without nipples.
2. animals always revert back to their original forms when reintroduced to their original environment because they that form suits the environment well. thats why they were in that form in the first place.its survival of the fittest.
3.there are a lot of intermediate species they have recently found out that raptor, i think it was velocile raptors actually had feathers. there are other intermediate fossils as well. the reason there are not as much as some people claim is because it is actuall very rare for a fossil to form.
4.the crossing of a species has nothing to do with evolution, in fact it would slow it down. evolution is about mutation and natural selection.
5. hybrids only produce sterile/infertile creatures because their genetic make up is just too different. this is because their common ancestor is very far back in history and they have accumulated many different mutations along the way.
6.i could get on a plane and fly to britain in a couple of hours but how long did it take before humans did it the first time?
7. i would really like to see your source on that
8. probably because intelligence was very important to this birds survival and it's not as important to ape's survival.
9. probabaly some Jungian archetype that can explain the phenomena that we deal with every day that seemed awe-inspiring to our ancestors, such as lightning, storms, floods, even crops growing from the ground.

Answer 4

The best anyone can do is to speculate reasonable answers to these questions, since none of us were there to observe it, but;

- males have nipples because all humans develop as females in the early stages, and nipples are a residual of that. This is an odd one to pick, since it favors evolution. If men were created, there would be no need for nipples.

- they don't in general, but even if they did, that still favors evolution, since the same forces that selected the original in the first place would apply to the hybrids and tend to drive them back toward a similar path

- apparently there's not much advantage to intermediate scales, feathers, and fins. Evolution drives things toward stable states. This is true in any feedback system, of which evolution is one. It's more amazing that we have actually found creatures with intermediate feathers.

- there are countless documented cases of cross-species in the wild. Try reading a book not written by Dr. Dino occasionally.

- hybrid species don't always produce sterile offspring. This is one of the mechanism of speciation. There are closely related species call 'ring species' where this happens frequently. Again, this information is readily available to anyone who is seriously looking for answers.

- Evolution is not the transformation of a given creature into some other creature, it's the transformation of offspring into a new species over time. The fact that frogs turn from tadpoles into frogs has nothing to do with that.

- don't know where you're getting this one from. I suppose depending on how you compute your metrics, you could show humans to be closely related to rocks than chimps too.

- 'smart' by what standard? Why does it matter? Intelligence would seem to have a significant advantage. It might evolve in disparate species independently.

- the idea of god evolved from sun worship. That's why god is said to reside in heaven (which used to be a synonym for 'sky'). This is actually well documented. 7 is a recurrent number in religions because there are 7 'nonfixed' celestial objects visible to the unaided eye (sun, moon, mercury, venus, mars, jupiter and saturn). 12 is an important religious number because there are approximately 12 lunar cycles in a year. All ancient religions evolved from reverence for the sun, and ancient astronomy.

Answer 5

Did you know that the smartest bird was the common raven? It observes and has the ability to understand human concepts. The bird watches a fisher man as he sees the line is used to get the fish, when the man moves away, the bird tugs the line which was a tactic used by the fisherman. This may be called mimicing in some cases but others have shown that the bird can logically think.

-------------------------------
evolution is the postive mutations of genes, mutations in genes occur rarely and usually they are bad so the good ones are even rarer. Thats why it didnt happen in 4 days also. The genes must have taken a while.

Answer 6

First of all the idea of god came from man. He is a creation of the human mind...Man created god in his image, not the other way around. Next many the things you state are completely out of whack.....a rattlesnakes DNA is closer to humans than a ape?....smartest species of animal (what exactly is definition of smartness) is a bird?......a African frog that grows legs and lungs in 4 days? (frogs are amphibious you realize and can live out of the water for long periods of time)...and on and on...I suggest you read a little more biology and listen less to your creationist buddies

Answer 7

Then why do males have nipples?....Men have nipples, and women have nipples, but men don't seem to use them. The tools of evolution can lead us to try to figure out what they were once used for. Men have evolved to where they don't use them like they used to.






Why aren't there thousands of species of intermediates, with scales, feathers and fins (actually there should be billions)?....This question doesn't even make sense. Why would you need scales, feathers and fins? That's so ridiculous!
Scales, feathers and fins are all features that animals have developed to help them better survive in the wild. Fins help fish swim. Feathers allow birds to fly. Scales were developed as an insulation tool. These aren't features that animals just happen to get to look pretty, they have to actually be useful to the animal.

Why does every crossing of species only take place by the hand of man, but not in the wild?....The next question answers this one.

Why does every hybrid species only produce a sterile/infertile mutation that soon does out? ....The genes of the two different species don't work out together. A sterile or unfunctionable creature is always produced. Therefore, mating outside your species if very uncommon.

Why do they say it takes billions of years for a creature to go from a water-based life, with fins and gills, to a land-based one, with legs and lungs...when a certain species of frog in Africa can do it in 4 days?...That is the reason why the frog CAN do it in 4 days! Life was water-based only before animals started coming out of the water! It took millions of years for the frog to go from a fish, to developing small legs, to shortening the tail, to learning how to breathe on land in small amounts, to becoming amphibian. Does it not make sense that frogs need to keep their eggs in wet places, because they originated from there millions of years ago? There is no yolk in the egg to keep it properly hydrated and fed like mammals have.

Why is the DNA of a rattlesnake closer to that of humans than a chimpanzee? ...97% of a human's DNA is the same as a dresophilia fruit fly. That's just more proof for evolution. That we all share the same genetic material, that we all evolved from one organism.

Why is the smartest species of animal a bird, and not an ape?...Because birds have extremely large brains, and they are bigger than an ape's. They have to be able to work their wings and fly around in the air, which takes a lot of concentration and coordination.

If intelligent-design creationism is impossible, then where did the idea of God come from?...The idea of God developed with humans. Very early humans, thousands of years ago, began to farm and use tools, but they also buried their dead. It was obvious that they wondered if there was someone greater than themselves that would take care of their dead. Intelligent Design isn't revoked from the scientific community because it has to do with religion, but only because it's not plausible science. You can't approach it in a scientific way, because it's pseudoscience.

Religion and science do not have to be black and white. You can believe in God without having to deny scientific facts. There is no reason to throw out evolution, it has nothing to do with religion. Animals who slowly change over time to better adapt their environments- that's all that evolution is. You can educate yourself or you can go thump your bible some more, it's your choice. But just remember that there's nothing wrong with doing both.

Answer 8

Why would an intelligent designer give males nipples if they were not needed?

In fact males having nipples is evidence of evolution. In times of famine or drought males are able to produce milk, thus providing double the food sources for the young. It times of plentiful food males don't lactate. This is a perfect example of a species adapting to environment.

Answer 9

why did evolution stop
if man came from ape why r not ape still changing today
just look at the cell it has more machine design in it then a machine shop making parts 4 g m


people just want to believe lies because it of the world not of God because if there a God they are wrong and head for the lake of fire
so they think if there no God they are alright and no condemn to hell
they just do not want to see the truth that is before them so they turn to any thing other then God

Answer 10

Evolution does not state that it has all of the answers, it states that it is looking for the answers. When you insert God into the equation its like putting a band-aid on an Axe wound.
Additional: That's a mighty fine pulpit your standing on there, should I get my check book out for you, or wait for the collection plate. Why did you ask the question in the first place if you didn't want alternative views you bible bombing jerk. TTFN.

Answer 11

nature tends for disorganisation.u need effort to get things organised,or become more sophisticated.i may believe that monkeys are originaly humans but not the opposite. if you think that nature created life,then who created the nature and the raw material?besides is this mindless thing called nature more clever than you! as still humans use wheel chairs or less efficient prosthesis for amputees!why we can't creat a living legs ?why we can't creat any living thing from non living?
