Did you know that most of you (more than 90%)when answering or asking questions that support your theory of our existance, seem to have more faith then fact. You yourselves do not have the ability to do the so called scientific studies to gather information for making your decision. You have read or heard someone else explain why they believe in evolution and you fall for it without doing the work. Then you take this beleif system of yours and you use it to critisise people who think differently. People who have accepted creationism as the explanation for our existence. Why don't you spend at least as much time looking into other explanations, as you have given to the theory (and that is exactly all it is) of evolution???

Christian from Pennsyvania and I agree with you.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning GOD created the heaven and the earth.
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.
God is our creator. Just look around and observe all that he has made, and it is wonderful.

For the last time, can I just point out that those who've studied evolution KNOW it's a theory. That's all we claim for it - it's the best working theory we have to explain the physical evidence. The difference is we don't claim our theory yet explains everything. Those who've "accepted creationism", to use your words, have given up on the idea of ANYTHING explaining everything, by the very nature of the fact that they claim some theoretical supernatural creator (and that's all it is) as the explanation for everything, as if that's sopmehow good enough. What's more this theoretical being is claimed to be the ONLY credible solution. Talk about taking time to investigate other theories...physician, heal thyself.

I'm a professional paleontologist and geologist and it is creationist professional liars, not to mention hypocritical bigots like you, who are picking the fight. I have a moral obligation to shoot down harmful outright lies when I see them. Here, for example: Evolution is fact. Evolution occurring by Natural Selection is a scientific theory supported by an overwhelming pile of evidence. As it is a complex explanation as to how and why something happens, it will always be called a theory in the language of science. I think it is you who needs to learn something. This and your other questions show that you are incredibly ignorant.

I think evolution is pretty close to the truth. But of course we still need many answers to many questions. Maybe in 500 years they will all laugh at us, with our silly version of evolution or the even silllier creationism.
You ask me to spend more time in investigating creationism. Hmm, how do you suggest I do that? How can I spend hours and hours studying a theory that simply states "for all we don't know yet, we use the answer 'God did it'...."
You don't suggest i'm gonna read Dr Dino's silly website again, now do you?

I have actually seen a good amount of data to suppport Evolution. In fact, there is so much data, it is impossible to see it all, but the standards of the scientific process require cross-checking data and peer review so that inaccuracate summations would be weeded out. Creationism is admittedly lacking evidence, otherwise, religion wouldn't require faith. Again, you claim others have no facts, but you put forth none of your own.

I have set up computer systems to analyze genetic homology and have run chemostat experiments looking at genetic shifts in microbial populations. I know the limits of what science can explain, and I have looked into alternate explanations. I find that some can't be disproven, but most fail on very quick inspection.

That somebody would actually take time to post that is incredible-so many words to say nothing. Evolution is a proven fact, there is no conjecture or doubt and only the mechanisms involved are theoretical-creationism is a bag of crap without a shred of credibility. The message to creationists is get lost-no one is interested in you or your absurd beliefs.

Evolution is G-d's way of creating an ever evolving world.
You use the expression ''theory of evolution''. What do you think of a doctor ''practicing medicine''? Because he is practicing, are you afraid to go to him? Words are not always what they seem.

actually, they're called "indisputable fossil records". We also arrive at the conclusion of evolution by observing animals which have evolved differently to their surroundings.

Dude, that's what years of higher education and PEER REVIEW are all about. Or do you think the vast majority of the scientific community is engaged in a grand conspiracy against your god?
