A 9 year scientific study [discussed in a 2007 book] poses the epic battle between the 2 sides in an entirely new light and grounds - throwing it entirely open to full-scale debate ... a REAL debate!!!
Author, scientist-discoverer, Denis Towers, himself an anatomist and kinesiologist has discovered that snakes and humans are the precise antithesis of one another - both, applied anatomically and behaviorally.
The conclusion drawn over this study is that this fact, of itself, expresses 'deliberation of design' and is just not possible over all the potential genetic random mutations via the theory of evolution ... that is, if we were to believe evolution!!
The other conclusion drawn by those involved is that this Breakthrough discovery in the debate tends to strongly support the Biblical Adam & Eve account, which involved the snake [its body assumed by Satan] setting Man in opposition to God.
God cursed the snake in a manner to make it opposite man in all things!!
WHAT THINK YE?

I think that the issue between creation and evolution has to be approached in a different manner than it is now. Albert Einstein had some pretty convincing theories that postulate that time is not immutable, but can be slowed down by gravity. The idea is that two clocks, one placed on top of the Empire State Building, will show minor but measurable differences in time. The one on the top will tick faster than the one on the bottom because the one on the bottom is ticking slower as it's influenced by gravity. Therefore, based on that postulation, as the sun was being formed in one "day" ("Let there be light and there was light") that time would appear to us as billions of years. As scientists, we know that each stage of "creation" lasted for billions of years and not days. I believe these differences are more a result of us having a poor grasp of time rather than differences between creation and evolution.
And I have a hard time with the theory of evolution based on the assumption that we as humans evolved differences between us to adapt to our environment, such as saying that an Asian man evolved an extra fold of flesh over his eyes to protect them from the cold, or an African American man evolved large muscles as a result of his environment in Africa as is taught by evolution. But we all belong to the class of Human. We all have the same chromosomes and differences between our physical appearance have nothing to do with evolution, but genetic mutations - something totally different than evolution. I am a Christian and I am also a scientist; a contradiction in terms in todays society. Yet I see no major differences between science and christianity. After all, it was discovered that the Red Sea was most likely parted by Moses after a volcano collapsed causing a tsunami. Just because I don't understand the science that GOD does, doesn't make it any less real for me.

What do I think?
Load o' hooey.
Opposites?
We both breathe air; we both take in oxygen, and breathe out CO2.
Plants do the opposite.
We both have spinal chords.
We both live on land.
How are we opposite in every way, when there are important features that we have in common, different from other living things?
Behaviorally opposite?
What, exactly, does that mean?
Not all characteristics are opposites of things that aren't the same.
Well, the problem with this post is the complete lack of details, so it's hard to say.
But one can cherry-pick attributes, and define "opposite" in ways that make what you want to think come out right.
But none of that proves the existence of a sky bully or any of the rest of the rot.
Hence, load o' hooey.

What a load of bullocks!
You're really struggling here aren't you?
Evolution has so much evidence to support it that it really IS irrefutable.
Even if snakes and humans are about as opposite as it gets, so what?
By the way, I think you'll find far more differences between humans and insects, or humans and squids.
It's a silly argument constructed to try and support the unsopportable.

In what possible way, using geneological, genetic, behavioral, or anatomical evidence could one POSSIBLY construe snakes as being an "antithesis" of humans? There are so many things wrong with that theory it's not even funny. Humans are one species--Homo sapiens sapiens--whereas there are hundreds, if not thousands, of snakes, all with different genetic, geneological, anatomic, and behavioral traits--not to mention habitat... I could go on and on and on why this idea makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Humans have far more in common, in all of the areas I just mentioned, with thousands of other species--snakes, as a whole, are closer to humans than they are to, say, cockroaches, or to paramecia, or to gingko biloba. There's just so much wrong there...

We share more characteristics of snakes and lizards than we do with plants and fishes. There are no opposites here on Earth. We are all formed from the same clay. The snake in the bible meant someone who was low-down and poisonous, but did not really talk. Now a talking snake would REALLY have much more in common with humans than a chimp.
That guy wasted his time.

Well that a new one on me. I had always heard that if evoution is true that us human evolved from apes and monkeys. But people will just saying anything to get a fast buck.
I believe that evoulution is the theory that we did evolve from primate. If you look at some of our ancester the neothrals etc they kind look like apes that are walking on 2 feet rather than on all 4 . So my mom wants said that we might have been from monkeys from the way people act now.Good thinking mom.Of course she said outer space was full of water. But that was the case it would be a solid sheet of ice and no space ship could get through right?

Break through my butt. Of course it is opposite man since God took away it legs and made it crawl on its bell for it entire life. Who's fault is that? Its not true about it eating dust though. I tried feeding mine dust and it died. So another falsehood from your Bible. Snakes don't eat dust. What have you to say about that? I have proved your Bible wrong. BB

No, sorry, chief, it's draw conclusions from evidence, not draw evidence from conclusions.
