You believe you've overthrown the theory of evolution because you stumped a junior-grade teacher?
Does that mean I've proven God doesn't exist because I stumped several Christians with questions about II Kings 2: 23-24, Leviticus 20:9 and I Corinthians 14: 34-35?
Being the genius who brought Evolution crashing to its knees by asking a simple question, you should have no trouble with my three open questions (see Sources, below). You wouldn't want it getting around that with three simple questions about the Bible I stumped the genius who brought evolution to its knees, would you?

You've just fallen prey to a common Christian lie. Evolution has been proven false (is only a theory). Evolution can be divided into two parts, macro and micro. Micro evolution is a fact, where as macro evolution remains a theory due to debates on the exact steps of the evolutionary process. EVOLUTION DID HAPPEN we simply can’t trace the exact evolutionary steps of the of the 3 trillion plus species on earth. Considering there is no way that we can even prove if we have located all the species on earth, this may always remain a theory. We can prove though, beyond a doubt, that humans have evolved. We can trace it back conclusively 3.6 million years. 97% of all scientists accept evolution (so does the Catholic Church). Christians have spread lies about this excessively, they especially like to say evolution preaches that Humans evolved from monkeys. Evolution does not state that humans evolved from monkeys, that idea is completely absurd. Science states that monkeys and humans evolved from a shared forefather and are hence relatives, (all primates are) but we are in no way direct descendants of them.
Get your facts straight.

Did you read your website? It does not support your conclusion. And I hope that you're joking because if you're not I want you to realize that no one listens to 8 year olds because they have no idea how the world works and they don't even know what thoughtfull study is, much less how to do it.
My principle problem with creationists is that you seem to decide that all the people that have studied science made their careful observations and theories based on a whim or out of nowhere and that you can easily disprove the science that they've gathered by saying things like "I FEEL that it's not true".
No one cares what you feel other than the people that feel the same. You didn't study it, and in my opinion at 8 you don't even qualify as a person. Of course that doesn't mean that I have facts to back that up, but I feel that you are not a person deep, deep down. So I know it's true.

Humans evolved more than 10 000 of years ago. Maybe some of the monkeys today will evolve into humans or something like us in a few 10 000 years. I'm not a scientists and neither are you and these things are too complex to comprehend at the age of 8 so maybe you should read about it today

The reason is that an evolution from an ape-like creature occurred over millions of years... monkeys and apes aren't becoming human today because they evolved that way, probably from an ancestor very similar to but not exactly like human ancestry... please don't spout creationism if you are only 8 and cannot possibly have any say on the subject (because you'll believe anything your teachers and parents tell you)

this is the idea of transitional organisms, kinda in between species
must say, i kinda agree
however, i wouldn't say that's proof of god, or proof that science is bull
this is because god is imaginary: http://www.godisimaginary.com
and science is based on the scientific method. this is able to determine causality in a far more reliable fashion than religion
for example, science has been used, finally, to begin stopping male circumcision. it's taken so long because it takes great testicular fortitude (in the case of men at least) to challenge religion.
to me, such a character attribute requires some degree of emotional intelligence, something which up until recently academics (and hence scientists) have been lacking in

Perhaps because you are wrong and someday you will understand. Yes, science is all BS and whatever BS you believe is right. I think I'll listen to the scientists their track record is a bit better then fairy tales.

well i though about that when i was 7 hahahahah...but i asked this question. men evolved from apes OR were they created "perfect" from god (if exists) ?
i guess the best answer is to forget there is god and stuff like that and that mens didnt evolve from anything, they just existed and surely you can forget all the archaelogical evidence...
MY ADVICE: after a few beers you'll forget all your questions and be happy :)
