Do you Creationists get it now? GEOGRAPHIC ISOLATION, do you get the point now?

Question

Or do we need to spend another 10 minutes asking rhetoical assanine questions about how a thing can come from a thing and there are still the original thing running around

I'll just keep asking I have no problem, until you people get the point I'm just going to keep on keeping on.

Answer 1

Well I have seen the answer that the animals got spread out because the continents were all joined together at the time of Noah's Ark and separated in the last 6000 years.

Answer 2

Ok,

a. Are you talking about how can there still be apes if humans evolved from apes? If so, then the problem there is a big misconception about evolution. Man did not evolve from apes. Man and ape both evolved from a common ancestor. We just evolved a little differently, thats all.

b. You say you will ask this question until everyone gets it. You ever hear of the phrase "Don't try to teach a pig to sing". That is applicable here. If someone does not want to believe you then you harping the question over and over is just going to annoy them and it gives you a lot less credibility.


Also, to Earl D, evolution is not an overnight process. It takes time. Usually thousands of years to get results. The animals you have describe have been evolving, but it is not at a rate where you can see the results. Like a glacier, you cannot see it move but it is moving.

And to Sage B, if all the animals were together at the time of Noah and the ark but the continents separated sometime after that, then why did kangaroos only exist in Australia? Why no rabbits in Australia? Why the diversity of life around the world? If all of the animals were together then they would be together when the continents split up? The answer to that is that is a group of animals on Pangea(the supercontinent) and when it split up they were isolated and went down different paths of evolution.

Answer 3

Use the spell check next time. That way, at least the spelling will be okay. It still won't prevent someone's question from sounding like a rhetorical rant, however. Aliens are the creationists, dude.

Answer 4

PLAH. "ScientistsTHINK that geographic isolation is a common way for the process of speciation to begin". a quote from a GI site..
But hey whatever you want to believe..

Answer 5

In the view of physical science, every observable phenomenon can be explained on the bases of the known laws of nature or laws yet to be discovered. If there is a phenomenon that we cannot understand or explain with our present state of knowledge, then we have to await future discoveries and developments. The fact that we do not understand an event or a phenomenon should drive us to seek an understanding of it. There are no mysteries in science; everything has a scientific explanation.

Answer 6

I like the theory that the oceans were caused by a bunch of meteor's that all contained a bit of water....and in like 10 million years, enough of them hit the earth that it made the oceans...

Answer 7

Diversification.

Answer 8

The important thing is if Man came from Apes why aren't Apes still evolvoing into other things. I mean we haven't seen a new spieces from Apes in centuries, what did evoltuion stop or is it just a one time thing.

Why aren't things evolving out of the sea.

Why don't fish sprout wings and fly away from the ponds anymore.

Answer 9

Sorry, I am not a creationist. However, who put you in charge of educating them...I do not think they will care much about what you think or believe. Just my experience. LEFTY
