Creation X Evolution I?

Question

Having the free time I have, I intend to write some good EvolutionXCreation questions. The kind that makes us think and stuff.

Well, this first one is for creationists to awnser: How do you explain the ocurrence of "ring" species like the ensatina salamander? How do you ague that this fenomenon dosent prove evolution??

About ring species:

Or read Ridley, M. Evolution. third edition.

Answer 1

It is explained by genetics, a science that many evolutionist seem to overlook. It allows by change within a species population through the process of selected breding. The results can be a change in the genetic pool, which results in a change in the look of that species.

But such changes are ALWAYS cased by the elimination of genetic alternatives from a population. (Such as if all the genes for red hair is eliminated, you no longer would have any reh haired people - and it would disappear from the species). However when this happens, the results is the elimination of that variety, and the reduction in species variety and the ability for evolution to happen. If keep reducing the amount of gene variety, you reduce change within the population.

So the existence of "ring species" that show a reduction a genetic variety is one of the stronger arguement AGAINST evolution being possible that there is.

Thanks for asking...

I read the article, it prooves nothing, Go to this site :

Answer this question, if the earth is supposed to be Billions of years Old then explain this;

Physicist Robert Gentry has reported isolated radio halos of polonuim-214 in crystalline granite. The half-life of this element is 0.000164 seconds! To record the existence of this element in such short time span, the granite must be in crystalline state instantaneously.10 This runs counter to evolutionary estimates of 300 million years for granite to form.


Man-made artifacts - such as the hammer in Cretaceous rock, a human sandal print with trilobite in Cambrian rock, human footprints and a handprint in Cretaceous rock – point to the fact that all the supposed geologic periods actually occurred at the same time in the recent past.11


Dr. Thomas Barnes, Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Texas at El Paso, has published the definitive work in this field.4 Scientific observations since 1829 have shown that the earth's magnetic field has been measurably decaying at an exponential rate, demonstrating its half-life to be approximately 1,400 years. In practical application its strength 20,000 years ago would approximate that of a magnetic star. Under those conditions many of the atoms necessary for life processes could not form. These data demonstrate that earth's entire history is young, within a few thousand of years

Answer 3

As a creationist, I still believe in micro-evolution. Essentially, animals getting heavier coats for cooler climates, or other animals getting webbed feet for better swimming. However, I also realize that these changes are very slow and span thousands, to tens of thousands of years. The problem comes into play when we say that through a series of micro-evolution we have gone from a single cell organism to the human beings we are today. Atheists will argue that the universe is somewhere around 6 billion years old. However, given the science we now understand about micro-evolution, the time it would take to go from an amino acid to a human would take over 300 TRILLION years. So how do you account for the gap? (Please don't give me the X-Men theory.)

Answer 4

examine some cosmology books. The "large Bang" being an "explosion" is a common false impression. area higher, and each thing in it, consisting of time, higher as well, and it continues to be increasing. the actual undeniable reality that we can degree this signifies that vast Bang theory continues to be a achievable theory. The "reliable State theory" has been extraordinarily a lot disproven. yet do not take MY be conscious for it - teach your self. per chance you'll come across some thing interior the destiny and disprove the idea, besides the indisputable fact that the invention that the Univese has been increasing for billions of years and keeps to enhance is extraordinarily properly settled. If some "author" set all that in action, then "he's" been out of a job for extra or less 14.5 billion years, no longer some thing for "Him" to do. Oh, wait, I forgot, "He" despatched "His" purely son to earth circa 0 A.D. so he could be tortured and murdered. What a guy!!!

Answer 5

1. They have no idea or knowledge about science, biology, etc.
2. They have no idea or knowledge about evolution.

Answer 6

That took me a few min. to figure out what you are talking about. They are never going to get it.

Answer 7

You seem to be looking for a scientific explanation... what does this have to do with religion?

Answer 8

This is totally interesting. Thanks for educating me. I am not a creationist, however. I am no brain surgeon but I do have the intelligence to accept actual physical evidence that can be seen and touched. DUH!!!!!

Answer 9

Dude, They are NOT going to answer this
