I mean, it's scientifically proven that there were neanderthals and homo erectus and all that. For example, here:

for one neanderthals are not the first step in alleged evolution, and two evolution has not been proven as absolute fact, you need not believe what the liberal media has told you every time. evolution is still a theroy, a good theroy it is but it is just not true, let me ask you something, the same scientist also tell you that the alligator has roamed the earth hundreds of thousands of years before humans, now why hasn't the alligator evolved to have rational thought? human beings are like no other creture on this earth with the exception of how we reproduce, human beings are so much more advanced than any other creature in this world, we have the abillity of rational thought, we have cause and effect thoughts animals do not have that, we did not come from a monkey, and we are closer in dna make up to a pig than any other animal, so lets say evolution is true and we have a monkey for an uncle, lol ( sorry had to ) why are there not other creatures that have allegedly lived on the earth longer than us, as advanced as us, its just not true, i'm sure animals evolve in their surroundings but to make it as far as human beings , its quite laughable, i would like to hear your rebuttle if you have one, you seem to be mature and i like to debate or discuss this more if you'd like, so contact me if you want

Evolution is scientifically impossible. There are many proofs of this but I will just mention a couple of them. According to the theory (hypotheses really) of evolution, life was created by a bolt of lightning that hit the ocean and created the first living creature.
If you know biology and zoology, you know that the simplest form of life that can reproduce it self is a one celled creature that uses mitosis to reproduce. A cell has to have a semi-permeable cell membrane enclosing it. For mitosis to occur, there has to be a nucleus with a nuclear membrane around it. Inside the nucleus there has to be chromosomes, complicated DNA strands, RNA, and mitochondria.
In mitosis, the chromosomes reproduce themselves and separate to different sides of the nucleus. The cell membrane and nuclear membrane have to enfold on themselves at the same time and separate to form 2 identical cells.
Before the first living creature was created, there was no life of any kind. That means that the water in the oceans was pure water. The hypotheses of evolution would have you believe that a living cell with the ability to reproduce itself was created by electricity hitting pure water!
Mathematics is a hard science that includes the formulas of probability. the probability that the above occurred is zero!
Neanderthal and Homo erectus are names which label skeletons that were found. There is no evidence that the skeleton labeled neanderthal changed into a cro-magnon. In fact there have been skeletons of each found in the same time period.
The skeleton labeled homo-erectus is some kind of creature but there is no evidence that it changed into anything else. Also there is no evidence that it was anything but an animal.
I know too much science to accept the hypothesis of evolution for anything other than what it is. It is an attempt by people who don't believe in God to explain how the universe and life came into existance.

Evolution is pretty funny. I mean, take the average bumble bee. Can you take some dirt, smash it around, and get a complex, working machine like the bumble bee? And that's not even counting the sun, the universe. If the sun was just a tad hotter, we'd all be fried neanderthals. If earth was just a tad bit further, we would be too far away for plants to make food, in turn, causing a chain reaction that would affect all living creatures. If earth was closer, we'd fry, yet again. Could nothing but a swirl of dust create everything we know, that's so complex and detailed to the extreme, that if anything was thrown off, we'd be dead? I believe the Bible, at Hebrews 3: 4-"Of course, every house is constructed by someone, but he that constructed all things is God." But that's just me.

Evolution is just a theory and a dam good one at that, science has never tried to prove Gods existents they know he exists, it is the bible that has caused all the commotion here, science can pick that book apart six ways to none, back then people were just like sheep uneducated easy to convince, today we use logic and common sense we become educated we study facts from fiction and yet even today we have those that fit the same category as they where 2000 years ago go figure, evolution will prevail I have no doubts about that.

I don't believe in evolution, but I don't disregard all of it. I am not close-minded and I believe that there are many scientific findings that help prove Creation as well as show evidence that evolution is possible. For the first article about Lucy, you should do more research besides just secular articles that have always believed evolution is true. If you have a mindset that one is true over the other, then you won't look at the big picture. Take a look at this article for example. It references to Lucy in a different way.

I belive in adaption. But evolution is a theory. Theres no proof. Besides for your lovely links to a monkey skeleton and a few teeth.
Why is it more likely that the skelton there is a former human, and not a former ape? That makes absolutly no sense.
We see adaption all the time, BUT, species dont "adapt" into other species.. You dont see children being born with differances in teeth, or "more advantageous spines"....It jsut doesnt happen. When someone IS born with a "differant" spine...its not survival of the fittest..its a mutation that greatly lessens their chances of survival.
Evolution is NOT proven...In fact evolution pretty much disproves itself when it says stuff like that.
Evolution is about as likely as a tornado blowing through a junkyard and creating a car lot..

People hold on to the belief of divine intervention because it is a blind faith belief. The thought that there isn't an almighty being controlling our destiny is just too much for some people to handle. Only those with an open mind can actually think and understand the cause of evolution.

Intelligent Design scientists are open both natural and intelligent causes. They are not opposed to continued research into a natural explanation for the first life.
We believe in evolution the way that the caterpillar morphs into a butterfly...but the monkey does not become a human being.

oh please...
Neanderthals played musical instruments, wore armore, had advanced art... they were buried in families...
these were all merely humans Homo Sapiens... Neanderthals were people living in the one ice age which followed the flood of Noah and are merely humans
by the way ... the ape to man fossil evidense is pitiable... take Lucy the fossil... if anything Lucy is the star witness AGAINST evolution... tree dwelling monkey... tree balancing pelvis... knuckle walker... trapeeze artist angled in legs ... not am upright land walker at all... and Lucy is the best evolutionists have...
truly pitiful
evolution is the emporers new clothes of the 21st century
