These fish can walk on land. There are countless examples of animals adapting to environmental conditions.
Why would we be different?

The guys pushing for intelligent design do so for emotional, not rational reasons. No amount of evidence will convince them.

"In his book Snakehead: A Fish Out of Water, Eric Jay Dolin tracks the epidemiology of snakehead misinformation. The first malformed factoid began innocently enough—biologists working for the state of Maryland knew that some species of snakeheads could WIGGLE short distances overland and thought that northern snakeheads were one such species (not true). The WIGGLING BECAME WALKING in the first Sun article. Also, the Sun said that the snakehead could survive three days out of water, failing to mention that this is true only if the fish is kept moist."
When all is said and done, the snakeheads are still fish.

I absolutely believe in the idea that animals can ADAPT to environmental conditions. I've always had the idea that evolution was supposed to be about the whole amoeba becoming fish becoming frog becoming bird becoming person thing.. etc.. BUT I have come to see on Y!A that the idea of evolution could be more about species that adapt to the conditions they're in, etc.. and I completely believe in that idea. I don't believe that my ancestors were fish or something.. but I do believe that various animals could 'adapt' or 'evolve' due to their surroundings.

It's funny. I had fun reading it. I also had fun watching a video about how all creatures in the world evolved from a type of fish and crustacian, not even mentioning how each related to each other and not mentioning how creatures like jellyfish, sponges, and sea urchins came from fish?

Never didn't consider evolution. The first humans were black (midocondrial dna prooves this) and as we migrated to colder climates we got lighter, skin, hair & eyes since we didn't need so much pigmentation. We have evolved, we're still evolving. We know dinosaurs walked the earth, we've seen the bones. However, we did not evolve from apes, hencethere's no dna showing this. It's simply just another theory.

Very amazing fish.... But...no that just tells me that this is a species of fish that has legs. I believe God created all animals, prehistoric and non, and many have gone extinct. I firmly believe in adaptation, that's something we see, and can witness.... not speculation that species changed to another species.
Great article!

Not really mate. Alright, so I consider it. In a roleplay-style sense.
We all consider that we could fly if we wanted to and whatnot.
In the end, though, mate, I do believe we ARE different and the reasons are scattered EVERYWHERE and the main source is often the Bible when push comes to shove.

dude, hate to say it but even if we can prove evolution without a shadow of a doubt, some people still won't believe it. sad isn't it ?
