Think, just think for a moment, you are so complex but if anything is removed from you any gene or major vein or anything major you evolve into death so how do you think this super creatures survived without being perfect as we are now? and tell us please how fruits and vegetables evolve ? at the begining was a stem seed that produced all this wonderfull fruits and vegies? any " intelligent " answer ?

I request that you first ask an intelligent question.

It's so unfortunate when someone who understands so little of what they are trying to argue that the answers would be so obviously beyond them.
First, atheist does not equate to evolutionist.
Removing a major organ is not at all similar to evolution.
Removing a gene is not at all similar to evolution.
None of us claim to be super creatures.
Evolution is not a jump from primordial soup to either human being or vegetable.
Evolution of vegetables can be shown statically by the remarkable similarities yet dramatic differences between vegetables in individual families. Look at the carrot and Queen Anne's Lace. Look at the difference (and similarity) between a rose bush and an apple tree.
You might talk of transitional forms; everything is a transitional form. The similarities of genes show their genesis.
Here's a question for a creationist. If a god were to create life, why would he do so with only a single design or model for life. Why not create a monkey with only the necessary genes to build a monkey? If he were to build a "human" brain, why would he do so with the model of lower creatures still included? If God only made finished products, why do we still have vestigal organs?
I know that there are many stock and pat answers to the questions above, and that creationists will run to them quickly. The problem is that there are answers that can be explained by science, and there are answers that can be explained by religion. I'm not an atheist, but I do put my faith in science. I don't have to struggle to solidify allegory to reality. I can enjoy and adopt a creation myth, integrating it into my faith without the fear of my faith disintegrating should science prove a portion of it as something other than absolute fact.

Well, the genes of everything is in our genes ... We are all coming from the same root. And still, want to give you something to think on : The bees and the flowers? How did they co-evolve like this? You know, the flower without the bee is nothing and the bee without the flower doesn't survive very long. Is that all evolution? Or is there a God of some kind who created everything? Pushed into a direction that is what we are today?

Plants evolved just like animals did, only in different ways. Being my knowledge about botany is little beyond caring for houseplants, I don't have the details. If you want something more detailed (and from looking at the tone of your question, you've already decided on your answer), why not post this question in the Botany section over in Science and Mathematics? There are quite a few knowledgeable people over there.

Fruits and Veggies evolved from simpler un-evolved organisms. And evolution is changing to survive in your envorment that is why their are different fruits and vegetables all over the world, the ones that couldn't survive died out so the more "perfect" ones are still here today.

Some very wise people spent their lifetime studying the genetics of fruits and vegetables and have written volumes about it. If you are interested you can read about it, but an "intelligent" answer requires an intelligent question. Yours is not.

Its funny that 30% of the genes in an apple are similair to a fruit

I also don't see why evolution couldn't be part of the creation process. But it does seem like there must be more than evolution. After all, the first living cell had no ancestor to evolve from.

Why do you have to be an atheist to believe in evolution? I never understood that. I believe in BOTH creation and evolution.
I believe that God created the planets, solar systems,people, etc. The Bible says the Lord created us in His image-it didn't exactly say what that image was. What makes you think it isn't completely possible that we resembled apes back then? Same thing with plants.
And if you know like I know, our God is an awsome God, so if his choice was to make us(humans, animals, plants) adjust to the ever-changing conditions in this place He created called Earth, it's completely feasible.

Morons. If you actually took a few minutes and read some science you would know that evolution has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH RELIGION. And if you had an education, you'd actually know how evolution happens. AND WHY ARE ALL YOU MORONIC ANTIEVOLUTIONISTS AMERICANS FROM THE DEEP SOUTH? Don't they have schools there? Christ on a cross, get a bloody education before you start thinking!

animal symbiosis are very difficult to explain
the vanilla flower is so specialized it takes one exact bee to crawl in and pollinize the vannilla flower... but neither the bee nor the flower could live 1 generation withought eachother... so go figure
Darwin though complex behaviors like beehive type behavior might rven unravel his theory and there are many combination so animal behaviors with other animals and animals and plants as well
