I think you'd better do your homework before you start calling people names and making a fool of yourself. There is a reason that the true scientific community still refers to evolution as The Theory of Evolution - it's because that's all it is. Every single effort to prove it as fact has failed miserably, and only served to prove that the whole idea is wrong. Scientists keep trying, and keep failing. It's real sweet when lay people like you decide to just change the facts and declare it as truth because you'd like it to be, but the facts don't support it.
I have no problem at all with science and the benefits we've derived from it, and that in no way makes me a hypocrite. Do your homework, junior, instead of grabbing onto someone else's coattails and spouting nonsense.

Are you asking a question or making a statement???
Evolution is a scientific THEORY not fact...
Science has never been able to nor will ever be able to prove evolution. Both creation and evolution are based on FAITH...
You can't compare evolution to a medicine... You logic is inaccurate... science didn't make evolution like it made medicine... it's just a scientific THEORY...
But lets continue with that illustration of medicine... medicine is very complex and required scientists to make it... it didn't just happen by chance like evolution claims...
the universe is infinitely more complex than any medication so how can you think that it just happened by chance or a big bang???

I disagree. I am religious and I believe in evolution and science, but I don't think that someone's disbelief in evolution means they don't believe in science. Unlike gravity, or chemistry, evolution is hard to show in concrete terms. So if you only believe what you see, it is entirely possible to believe in science and disbelieve in evolution.
People don't HAVE to believe one way or the other on this subject as it DOESN'T MATTER--and either side that imposes that their way is the one and only right way, either for Creationism or Evolution is being a bully. It doesn't matter if we evolved from fish, apes, got zapped into existence, or are the product of a butterfly's fart. How we came to be is less important that what we choose to do with our existence. We can make the world a better, peaceful, more tolerant place, or we can be intolerant jerks whose egos require us to be absolutely right all the time and to punish those who think differently.

This is the poorest attempt at a point that I've seen on yahoo answers in awhile -- and that's saying alot.
Your preposterous proposition that "Evolution is based on science... If u dont believe in evolution, you dont believe in science" is simply ludicrous.
There are plenty of scientific theories which people don't accept. For example, string theory. Many scientists don't believe in it, even though it is based on science. Does this make those scientists reject science? Not at all. All it means is that they haven't found it convincing. Either for lack of evidence or b/c of contradictory evidence.
Same idea here.

Can your science create a new living being using your evolution theory? Let science do that and then the world will believe evolution. Science is practical. Otherwise believing in evolution is again hypocrisy.

Well you are close in part. We can thank science for many things. But, science has not given us evolution just yet. Evolution is just a theory with no scientific support, check it out. There is not one shred of evidence for evolution and no verifiable evidence for anything older that 5500 years. Now we have some theories based on speculation-that we have. We have several methods of radio-metric dating that says some things can be billions of years old--"IF" our suppositions are correct. But we don't know that they are-we only hope so.
Yes, our science is based on facts, but evolution is based on assumptions -nothing more.

Give 'em Hell. They deserve it. By trying to prove Intelligent Design--they actually deny God's existence. Read on.
The Intelligent Design Ruse
a Rear Door Defense
of
Evolution
Intelligent Design is a euphemism for Creationism. Some people want everybody to live like and worship Jesus the same as them. In their attempt to do that they have tried to rename Creationism; yet, by doing so, they have presented a false view on the origins of humanity.
Our country has this thing called the Constitution, and a part of the Constitution is that religion can’t be supported by or forced onto citizens by our government.
All Intelligent Design is is an unclever, poorly reasoned ruse designed to try and wow Christians, and non-Christians, into believing I.D. is a scientific answer, and not Creationism, by dressing it up in fancy words. It isn’t.
The people who came up with this are being disengenous. They are giving Christianity a bad name in their attempt to present a false explanation for Creation. They have abandoned God's creation. In doing so, they have maligned all Christians, and have caused Christians to be misrepresented in their ill-conceived attempt to hoax the Public.
If Intelligent Design is proven not to be a religious explanation, it could be taught in our schools. I.D. proponents reason that if it’s not religion it will pass the Constitution’s ban against governmental support of religion. That’s why I.D. proponents were, and are, so fervent in their support of Intelligent Design.
They have tried to deceive us into believing I.D. is not Creationism by saying that there is a certain intelligence in the design of the Universe, and that our Universe would not exist if it wasn’t for the designer. All they have done, though, is to postulate an idea that isn’t true.
Now, what would God or Jesus think about that? People, saying they represent Christianity, presenting an idea on the predication of a lie.
If you reason this out, with their logic, you will discover Intelligent Design supporters are, in reality, denying God by stating our Universe was designed by a designer and that God isn’t the designer. Think about it, please.
Zealots in their ardor to prove their idea is not religious, in order, to get it to pass Constitutional muster have, in actuality, denied the existence of God. Oops!
In the recent trial about Intelligent Design in the Pennsylvania courts, the Judge of the trial explained in his decision how I.D. proponents had lied by saying I.D. was not a religious explanation when, in fact, it was a religious explanation.
That Judge has been labeled an “activist” by the people who attempted to pull this off. Shame on them. Those I.D. proponents give Christendom a bad name. They are nothing but lying zealots trying to subvert our Constitution.
Intelligent Design is not a theory. It is a poorly thought out contrivance. It has nothing to do with the origin of our species. Now, Creationism is a different topic altogether, and, from what I’ve been taught, is the origin of our species. Evolution is still the only answer. Creationism while incongruos with Science requires faith. And, when you apply faith--that takes away the incongruity for the individual believer.
After all, isn't that what the Holy Bible teaches us, to have faith?
Now which would you rather do, deny God outright, or have faith that God created the Universe? And, that we just haven't found a way to reconcile Creationism and Evolution completely yet. But by having faith, someday, both will work as one.

Technically evelution is a beliefe in the scientific community like aliens or ghosts. Which of course aliens and ghosts norrow to a small protion of the community it is still science. But many people dont believe in alien or ghosts so does that make the hypocrites...NO!. So thus why would you call the people who dont believe in evolution hipocrites????? Oh ya thsi comes from and Atheist who believes in evolution.

Macro Evolution is the belief that ALL creatures decended from other creatures. that we were all somehow magically transformed.
I can tell you this...
If all apes turned into people there would be no apes left. Same with any other creatures you want to use. Can you expliain why only SOME of them turned into people?
Macro Evolution is a theory. Not a fact.
You can't PROVE Evolution any more that I can PROVE the Bilbe. We walk by faith not by sight!

hipocits? now that was really mature and objective
Actual nothing in practical day to day medicine rests on the theory of evolution.
Oddly you did not give a single scientific argument for macro evolution. Are you pressenting an emporers new clothes type of a case. A bum rush, ad homenum style? Dudes and dudettes, if you dont argee with me your a dope type of argument? and no visible evidense to offer? Sheesh... vacuous city
Interestingly none of the lists of major accomplishments of the last century rest on evolution being true and frankly I have never even heard of a positive day to day practical benefit of the theory of macro evolution in the fields of medicine, agriculture or technology. It is not necessary for the benefit of mankind, it is only necessary for philosophical meterialism and to make aethism possible. Hense the emoutional attatchment
well... racism and social darwinism rest on it,... but they are negative influences not positive
