ok, many creationists use this claims to "prove" that evolution is wrong, so check this link and tell me what you think (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution#Misunderstandings_about_modern_evolutionary_biology)

ok, seems like a lot of people misunderstood m y question, i dont put this as a proof of evolution (it has already been proven) i put it because many creationist use arguments, misinterpretating the terms used in evolution, the entropy argument, etc..
and slickyboy.. i put a link so it wouldnt use too much space in the page, you did the same except you copy/pasted the info in your link in the answer (maybe you rephrased something, but when you read it it looks a lot like copy/paste)

desjardin, you say "wikipedia is not accurate" but at least is more accurate than the bible
2006-09-25 08:11:54 · update #2
How is it that wikipedia is not accurate as the Bible? Because so many different people can add things to wiki? Because it changes as it grows? You cant trust it because there is no actual proof that what was written there is true? Wow, that sounds exactly like a book i have heard of.....hmmmm....what was that book?............Oh yeah.The Bible. Amazing what hypocrite answers appear here.
Also you cant use the Bible as proof of God for anything. The Bible is the main thing that atheists have problems with, so you trying to use it to rove something does nothing but make people skip over your answers because we don't believe the Bible in the first place. Proof, actual physical evidence is what would be needed to prove the Bible true. Something we could see or hole in our own hands.
Sorry Valko, this isnt an answer to your question, report it if you want. But these " always right" Christians who use unproveable theorys as arguments just really get on my nerves.

Wow! these people believe everything they read.
Momie, I'll put this in simple terms for you.
the common ancestor lived in groups all over the world
one group evolved into humans and other groups into apes and monkeys get it now?
Today the theory of evolution is again under heavy attack by religious fundamentalists. Although the theory of evolution cannot be said to have reached its final formulation, or to be an infallible principle of science, it is nonetheless supported impressively by the findings of many sciences. There may be some significant differences among scientists concerning the mechanics of evolution; yet the evolution of the species is supported so strongly by the weight of evidence that it is difficult to reject it. Accordingly, we deplore the efforts by fundamentalists (especially in the United States) to invade the science classrooms, requiring that creationist theory be taught to students and requiring that it be included in biology textbooks. This is a serious threat both to academic freedom and to the integrity of the educational process. We believe that creationists surely should have the freedom to express their viewpoint in society. Moreover, we do not deny the value of examining theories of creation in educational courses on religion and the history of ideas; but it is a sham to mask an article of religious faith as a scientific truth and to inflict that doctrine on the scientific curriculum. If successful, creationists may seriously undermine the credibility of science itself.

There are no creationists who even understand what evolutionary theory actually states. There entire knowledge of evolution is a cartoonish rendering spoonfed to them by the likes of "Dr." Dino.

Report the cut and paster!!! Oh and Southpaw is right... you can link all sorts of evidence and the people that SHOULD go, just don't... they'll give you all sorts of BS reasons why not too.
Truth is, they are afraid of the truth.

What I think is that it is just enough facts to accept the general. Specifically, I quote, "paleontologists can infer the lineages of those species." - to paraphrase "paleontologists can guess".
Your worldview determines what you will believe. There is no evidence of evolution outside of "kinds" in the bible. Variation does not mean evolution.

Wikipedia is not accurate.
There is no way to prove evolution. Just as there is not yet a way to disprove it.
Meaning creationists and evolutionists just have to learn to agree to disagree.

There's junk "science" everywhere today. It has never been observed that one species "evolves" into another. It's rank speculation based on a bankrupt theory-tale.
If you need to discuss this further, perhaps the myths and folklore board would serve your needs better.

This is easy. Someone had to have created the very first thing that you atheist dream up as the first bacteria or whatever bull you come up with next. Poor old Darwin finally got it at the end of his life so wise up. When you die you will remember me telling you that Jesus is real. You will bow before him someday.Infertility he will say depart from me I never knew you and you will be cast in to hell for eternity. You do have a choice. Trust in Jesus and live.
