Creationists are really dumb. To think that all neanderthal men are men with arthritis is retarded. We know how Arthritis affects and it would be impossible for those bones to end up like that, much less fossilize in places where it can be seen that they are thousands of years old. 500+ fake neanderthal fossils? Impossible.

The idea that piltdown man was a hoax is true, but it wasn't exposed by any creationist. It was exposed by scientists, thus proving the science works. To believe science can never make A mistake is preposterous. To think science has made ALL of it mistakes is even more ludicrous than believing one mistake can't be made. As for the Nebraska man's tooth, that was always part of skepticism and proved so quickly. The whole illustration was made by some artist for some magazine with a clear caption saying that it came from the imagination of that random artist and is most likely completely inaccurate.

And as for the genetics student, he probably doesn't even have a genetics degree. Even the most basic genetics class will tell you MOST mutations are NEUTRAL to the being and the species while the negative are quickly lost by natural selection. If he had a genetics degree he could tell you how genetics has confirmed through the phylogeny has confirmed ancestry and is probably the strongest ally of both evolution and physiology. In addition, he should have also spoken about the fact that evolution is also driven by adaptation, genetic drifts, insertions, deletions, and MOST IMPORTANTLY: TIME. He's trying to misinform people to believe we are some x-men of random mutant properties.

Well, they just don't. not rationally, anyway. They are in denial of the facts of the matter, which state that pre-modern skeletal remains have been found throughout much of europe, asia and africa. Attempts have been made by creationists to explain this fact away by claiming that either the remains of these pre-sapiens are actually those of deformed or ethnic homo-sapiens, or that they were placed there intentionally by Satan as fake skeletons which never lived, in order to undermine faith in god. (the same folks make the same claims about dinosaurs, etc.)
While Genesis states that god created the world in seven days, a few pages down the road, it also states that God does not count time in the same way that man does, and that man (primitive, biblical-era man, that is), cannot understand God's concept of time. Is it not therefore reasonable to consider that perhaps God did create man, through manipulation of the evolutionary process, over an undetermined period of time, and that the seven days, were counted on God's calander, not man's? makes a lot more sense than the abra-cadabra theory .

Any random change in a complex, specific, functioning system wrecks that system. And living things are the most complex functioning systems in the universe.
Science has now quantitated that a genetic mutation of as little as 1 billionth (0.0000001%) of an animal's genome is relentlessly fatal.The genetic difference between human and his nearest relative, the chimpanzee, is at least 1.6% Calculated out that is a gap of at least 48 million nucleotide differences that must be bridged by random changes. And a random change of only 3 nucleotides is fatal to an animal.

How do you explain the jaw bone of an ape being passed off by a few self proclaimed scientists who are looking to make a name for themselves in the history books as a bone from a pre-human?

How do you explain your desperation in wanting to believe that this small bone fragment represents a record of some non-existent pre-man?

Darwin himself said that his theory was wrong because the fossil record does not support it. Darwin was a very intelligent man.

^^ READ THE ABOVE "BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN"'S RESPONSE, his quote of the famous geneticist.

Firstly, I'm not Christian, I'm Muslim.

I myself have a bachelors in Genetics and let me tell you, the mutation aspect is very hypocritical of evolutionsts to ignore. What happends is molecular geneticists go crazy pushing evolution, when they forget to realize the big picture -- WHICH IS PHYSIOLOGY. If you cause even a little mutation of 1 nucleotide, there can be fatal consequences. Now you tell me, how in the world, can you get mutations that would evolve into another species. I don't buy it. Natural selection -- okay. Different colors, styles, okay I can understand why gray moths overpopulate red moths in a gray environment (thats common sense). But entire BODY SYSTEMS changing (bone structure changing and organs changing) -- its a little hard to believe -- PURELY FROM THE SCIENTIFIC STANDPOINT.

I think if they were to bring Geneticists and Physiologists closer together, there would be fewer Evolutionists.

I thought creationist just didn't believe we evolved from lower forms of life, I didn't know they call fossils hoax's and devils work!!! Now I'm scared.

Im not creationist but.. prove to me he existed and hes not made up like the one they said existed, that was later proven to be derived from the tooth of a prehistoric pig. if you guys stretch to a tooth to create a man out of how can we believe anything u guys say.

(perhaps athiests are as dillusional just like christians. lol)

Homo sapiens apparently did exist as well as other sub species of homo sapiens. The Genesis story pretty well parallels evolution theory. The time span does not, unless you consider that God’s “time” is not the same as we know it. His “days” should be considered as time periods (for lack of another description). Read that account AGAIN, word for word, in Genesis

Thus God created this planet and its species, including homo sapiens, over 5 time periods. All “creatures” were created “AFTER ITS KIND” and able to “multiply” (procreate).

Then in the sixth time period Adam was created “AFTER OUR IMAGE”! Not “AFTER ITS KIND”. Adam was created as a single new being. He was as “perfect” as all creation before him. But, he was given “God’s spirit” (a soul). Gen. 2:7-9, 16&17. HE was created to live indefinitely within his special environment, the Garden of Eden. That’s why he was informed that it would be fatal for him to eat from the “tree of knowledge of good and evil”. Gen. 2:17.

Eve was an afterthought so Adam would not be all by himself. Gen. 2:21,22

Meant to live indefinitely, Adam and Eve did NOT NEED to procreate! They had no sense or ambition of sexuality. Gen. 2:25. They were naked but not ashamed – innocent, without sin.

God gave them the power of choice, to obey his instructions or not.

After eating the forbidden fruit – also known as the “original sin” - they were sexually “activated” (Gen. 3:7-11 & 16) (they were ashamed! They covered them selves up!) and God had to change His plans for them. So Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden in order to KEEP THEM AWAY from the “tree of live” which could have sustained their life (and that of now possible offsprings) indefinitely - Gen. 3:22-24.

They were now condemned to live their life in the outside world and procreate like the “creatures” (Neanderthals & Co.) created before them. (Gen. 3:16) They now also were destined to die like them.

They were all human. When God scattered everyone at the Tower of Babel, some went here, some went there, some died.
