You've missed the point. Monkeys did not turn into men

How to make several corrections as brief as possible....Monkeys didn't become man. You can choose to ignore the fossil evidence, most creationists do, but there is plenty despite whatever you may think. Evolution is not "all chance." Your eye example is called the argument from incredulity - the eye has in fact been explained through evolution, as well as the ear. And your website is not remotely scientific. Basically, you have no grasp of evolutionary theory. I would recommend some websites or reading, but I realize that it's pointless. And finally, scientists are not jeering at Christians, but again you're entitled to your opinion. For anyone else who's interested, a good link on evolution is below.

I don't think most of us "evolutionist", or (as I like to call myself,) scientists, jeer at Christians. I am fine with letting everyone believe in what they want. If you want to believe that the world was created in 6 days...go for it. But that is faith with the bible as a "crutch." And not everyone believes in the same faith, religion, god, gods, goddess.
What scientist "jeer" at is the attack by religion on science.
There is no need for it. Science does not threaten religion.
The theory of evolution relies on data and lines of evidence from many fields of study. And while it has not been "proven", no evidence has been found to dispute it as of yet.
Believe me, many scientists would love to make a discovery that disproved evolution. Not because they are anti-evolution, but because it would mean a huge paradigm shift. And that is always exciting (and scary.)

"Ninja Showdown" is one of those entertaining Creationists who enjoys posting questions to the biology boards for no reason other than to try to cast doubt on something he's completely ignorant of. I'm finding him increasingly tiresome.
His comments above (blah, blah... all have the same body parts... blah, blah...) have been answered by others and really don't merit a response.
If I were to analyze his questions, they seem to suffer from YEC syndrome, an often incurable disorder brought about by years of indoctrination and brain washing. He parrots the arguments of such ridiculous people as Duane Gish and Henry Morris, really old school Biblical literalists who were fond of the misleading quotation or strategically deleting words from quotes as a rhetorical trick. You know... basic grade school tactics.
C'mon "Ninja Showdown," impress us! At least be creative (punn?) enough to offer up an intelligent design argument or two? Why not steal from more progressive creationists like the ID crowd? You can do better!

Okay i have looked at this website half of its arguments though are more to do with the nature nurture debate.
It saying that these "stupid" (i know its not the word they use but its what it implies) animals must have a superior being controlling them so they can make such complicated structures (honeycombs etc).
If you wanna see if it is right get a single bee egg or whatever before it has hatched make sure it has no contacts with any other bees if it does still construct these honeycombs come back and tell me, i would be very surprised.

Actually, no one is saying that they have PROVEN that monkeys became man. It is just a theory, but it is a theory based on a lot of facts. In fact, they have MANY fossils that suggest it is true, so you are wrong about that. The only thing that doesn't make any sense is your argument. That said, I am a Christian AND I believe in evolution. Faith is great! Faith AND reason combined is even better.

Why do Christians jeer at evolutionists when they rely on faith? It's because many people are ignorant for both sides and they find that the opposing theory to the one they believe is ridiculous, personally I'm agnostic but I sure as heck don't laugh/jeer/make fun of Christians for believing what they believe. Simple fact is everyone should respect others for their beliefs and chill out.

This is not an answer to your question but you should read a book called The Unrandom Universe it show how science proves that there is a God
