Just to proove neither of us are ignorant of each other's beliefs, this is what I know thus far:

According to creationism, God created the world 6000 years and also gave birth to Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve's children later had families together and jump-started the human population. Inbreeding was not a problem back then because humans were more pure. As generations went by we got sicker, smaller, and less pure so inbreeding eventually became hazardous. Dinosaurs lived with humans as well, and we have proof of this because there are expertly-crafted cave paintings depicting various dinosaurs. Now up until then, the entire human race had the same ethnicities, but in an attempt to reach Heaven, the Tower of Babel was created. God was angry so He created diversity amongst people to prevent the Tower from being finished. That is why we have so many ethnicities and different languages. Adam and Eve died after living for a thousand years, and the human race has gone downhill since.

...that's bullshit. I'm gonna post this question a million ******* times until I get a decent response.

Nah, go for it, dude. My wording could use some polish though.

Ok shall I start from the "big bang" or from when this planet magically got here after matter "came into being" from nothing (logical fallacy)?

I guess I'll start from when the planet was already here.

There was some primordial goo consisting of basic elements found here on earth. Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen etc. And through lightning storms, basic elements were fused into amino acids and fused into the DNA building blocks of life. (This is voodoo hocus pocus- this has never been proven in a lab even though experiments have been conducted to see if it would happen... it didn't)

Somehow these DNA molecules globbed magically together and formed cell membranes and cell walls and organelles and rhibosomes (all at the same time of course... none of this would be of any use on its own just floating around out there in the goo - so it all had to coincidentally come together at once... yeah right)

So let's hop on the magic imagination bus and assume that amoebas and bacterium came together *somehow*

Ok so at this point the hand-waving evolution starts. Single cell organisms start to specialize on what will make their life easier - flagella (an extremely complex organelle) magically develops which can propell a single celled organism with the same power as a motorboat engine. Somehow all the parts of this machine "evolve" together at the same time and in the right relationships to produce rapid rotory motion. (Because, like I mentioned before, any one of the components alone would be evolutionarily useless) And therfore this cell is able to divide more frequently because it is able to obtain more food with its motion.

Skip on to the next fable in our tale:
single celled organisms start to join together and cooporate to form multicellular organisms. Cells just decide (with no communication) to specialize into one type over another. For example one might specialize into a photosynthesizing cell while another would specialize flagella so we would have a moving, solar powered organism (No evidence for this fairy tale either btw)

Fast forward... gee what number shall I pull out of my hat... millions and millions of years... and we get plants! (How? Who knows? Maybe I'll BS a story about the waters receeding leaving photosynthesizing cells on the beach who (without dying) developed roots) - Mabye I'll BS something about photosynthesizing cells climbing out of the water or floating to the surface for more light or whatever the heck I want - I wasn't there and neither were you so you can never prove whether my fairy tale is true or not... but I'll call you an ignoramus if you dare to question my BS)

... we also get fish somehow. And then the fish start to develop lungs and walk on the land. Why? Uh I guess they thought theyre'd be food up there? Or maybe uh.... they got stuck on land and had to improvise? How do I know this? I just do so shut up and stop questioning me.

Ok so these walking fish then diversify into all of the animal life that we have on this planet. Because if they are better equipped for cracking a nut or reaching leaves on a tall tree or digesting grass, they survive longer to mate.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that part where we evolved from reproducing through asexual cell division to an exchange of DNA from 2 different beings. That happened too sometime. Yes, I know it sounds strange that 2 seperate organisms would coincidentially develop a way to exchange their genetic material and create a new organism which is a hybrid of the genetic material of the two. Infact, it seems statistically impossible that such a thing could ever occur - I think I am crazy for suggesting it, but yes, this too happened. Remember what I said about questioning me? Don't, you religious wacko nutjob!!!


BTW even some Atheists (who bother to think for themselves instead of eating up what other people have taught them & arrogantly spewing hatred at those who "disbelieve" their "science") do not think that it is possible for life to have evolved on earth.

Even Sir Francis Crick (one of the scientists who discovered DNA, and an atheist) hypothesized Panspermia, not evolution. Because he recognizes that DNA could not have evolved on this planet.

The problem with explaining evolution is everyone has their own idea where evolution ends and another theory like the big bang theory begins.

I'll give you my understanding of the most common explanation of a creator-less origin of existence.

In my opinion any origin theory must account for the origin of time which starts the order of events, I'm not sure how the big bang theory accounts for the origin of time.

13.7 Billion years ago all matter was condensed into a singularity or a "hot spot" suddenly it all expanded.

This matter flys around and collects together to make up galaxies and planets and so on. After several billion years earth is formed and then over more time just the right combinations of matter get together and form proteins which then just the right combinations of protein get together and form a living cell. The cells over more billions of years change because of enviormental needs ( natural selection) and possibly mutation caused by other environmental factors.

Several million years ago primates started showing up and then eventually humans.

Creationism: God's holy breath creates some naked dudes in a garden with a snake dude; snake dude gets them kicked out; naked dudes look for a coat; naked dudes do it in missionary position; result is 6 billion dudes eating, sh^tting, farting, killing, and dying.
Evolution: Astral fart leads to big bang; pond scum dudes walk out of pond and turn into monkey-like dudes; monkey-like dudes turn into less-ugly-looking monkey-like dudes because their environs are like most appropriate; eventually, the feng-shui thing really takes hold and the result is 6 billion dudes eating, sh^tting, farting, killing, and dying.
They sound the same to me.

LOL! wow, look at them lining up to answer!!!!

***********************

Oh my gods, none of you creationists can describe the theory of evolution??????????????

You know NOTHING about evolution, yet you think that you're knowledgable enough to reject it????????????????


***********************


Oh this is too precious.

Jim Darwin, I hope you've noticed this one.

It's pretty clinching proof that creationists don't know what the hell they are talking about when they hand-wave away evolutionary theory.


**********************.

*starts whistling the theme to Jeopardy! *



**********************.


Well, there's a satirical response now, but still not a single attempt by a creationist to provide an explanation of evolutionary theory.

Are they all cowards?



*********************.

You SHOULD re-post this, as there are obviously creationists here, but they're avoiding your challenge like the plague!

Would you mind if I reposted this later if you're not here, to see if I can get a single good answer out of them?
I don't want to plagerize without your permission.

WOW, morgraine just demonstrated that she doesn't know squat about evolution.

The number of things that she got 180 degrees backward or completely lied about is astounding.

Morgraine, if you ever want to step outside of your own ignorance, the following website addresses every one of your feeble challenges to evolution, and blows them away with EVIDENCE. Something your challenges completely lack.
www.talkorigins.org

Stop spreading your lies out of complete ignorance.
That's what the questionner was getting at. So many people like yourself THINK you know something about evolution, but when asked to provide an example or definition about it, we end up seeing (like in your case) that you get it all wrong.

You demonstrated that you don't understand what evolution posits, yet you dismiss it with hand-waves.

Here's a tip:
LEARN something about evolution BEFORE you make your mind up about it

You won't look like such an ignornant, uneducated, country bumpkin that way.



Oh, and regarding your "tone" and responding to me,
suck it up honey.

you just spewed off a list of FACTUAL LIES about evolution (hell, you didn't even demonstrate knowledge of the difference between abiogenesis and evolution), just like every other creationist always does.

When you can argue something without having to resort to making sh1t up, come find me on this board.

I've noticed that, on average, the creationists who dismiss evolution as false are the same ones who can't explain what evolution is.
