And why aren't we evolving now? why are we the only species capable of learning an entire language?

Evolutionist are always looking for a way to convince themselves of foolish things in spite of evidence to the contrary.
They invent all sorts of things as they go along.....everytime something doesn't work out right they invent another theory to keep it current with the latest discovers which keep invalidating their last assumption....it is really laughable
And sadly, convincing themselves is not enough for them.

They have to further perpetuate their deceptions by spreading around to our nations youth. Beware of the radical evolutionists....they will tell you anything to keep you from believing in a Creator.

Evolutionist theme song:
I used to be an ameba, living life completely free.

Then I became a fish, swimming in the sea.

Then I was monkey, hanging from a tree,

And now, I'm a doctor with a Ph. D.!

Evolution can be divided into two parts, macro and micro. Micro evolution is a fact, where as macro evolution remains a theory due to debates on the exact steps of the evolutionary process. EVOLUTION DID HAPPEN we simply can’t trace the exact evolutionary steps of the of the 3 trillion plus species on earth. Considering there is no way that we can even prove if we have located all the species on earth, this may always remain a theory. We can prove though, beyond a doubt, that humans have evolved. We can trace it back conclusively 3.6 million years. 97% of all scientists accept evolution (so does the Catholic Church). Christians have spread lies about this excessively, they especially like to say evolution preaches that Humans evolved from monkeys. Evolution does not state that humans evolved from monkeys, that idea is completely absurd. Science states that monkeys and humans evolved from a shared forefather and are hence relatives, (all primates are) but we are in no way direct descendants of them.

And why aren't we evolving now?
-- We are. I could ask you why I can't see a flower growing. It's a slow process.

why are we the only species capable of learning an entire language?
-- What if the entire language consists of 10 different grunts?

It is a good question because we ARE evolving now. We continue to evolve with each generation, mutations happen and changes occur. That is evolution.

We are the only species capable of a lot of things. We, as a species, fill a niche that made intelligence a survival trait. That means we were in competition with other species that may have developed along similar line. But we beat them. We were just a bit smarter than they were and we flourished while they died out. That is natural selection.

We are not. We are a series of apes. Whether you want to accept that or not genetic analysis show that it is true.

We are evolving. Evolution moves slowly, especially in species with long generation cycles. You are not going to observe it happening in your lifetime.

We are not the only species capable of learning a language. Several chimps have learnt to converse fluently in sign language, up to a point of creating new words. They just lack the vocal ability to speak a complex language. Who knows how complex the language of dolphins and whales is.

1 easy .. we're not .. we had a common ancestor..

2 we still are .. and so is everything else

3. we are not the only species with a language ! most animals are capable of making up to 7 different sounds (commands) grouping them together in different orders makes new sounds .. forming their language.

humans are capable of making 30 different sounds .. forming those together in different orders .. we have MANY MANY more sounds.. forms all of our languages. Some larger species of birds and dolphins have a very complex language.. they are just as intelligent if not more then humans.

Intelligence is measured by the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly, and learn from experience .. in which both species are VERY capable of.

have you ever known someone to have a larger parrot as a pet ?! they're amazing.. its like keeping a 2 year old child in a cage. they are capable of memorizing and mimicing 5,000 sounds (words) and actually understand the meaning to half of them !

edit:

We're not evolving *into* anything.. we not changing into aliens lol

We share a common ancestor with modern-day monkeys.

And we are still evolving. It just takes thousands of years to see even the smallest of changes and millions of years to create an entirely new species.

EDIT: We obviously don't know what we are evolving into. We'll find out when we get there.

Want to see evolution on a quicker scale? Look at virus's and bacteria that resist drugs (IE the flu and common cold)


We can't create a cure because everytime we solve the problem, they evole past it. And their evolution is on a quicker scale because they are very simple celled organisms, while humans are complex organisms. It would take a while for humans to evolve as a whole, but we are still evolving. Our appendix is useless and shrinking in size thanks to evolution.

we are one with creation. With God, anything is possible. I believe the first modern man appeared around 60,000 years ago in the rift valley in Africa. Every single person in the world shares a gene in common with the Bushman tribe. Even their language reflects this.

Evolving spiritually since then. We don't worship the elements anymore (do we) Or at least we know their proper place. We don't offer human sacrifices anymore, nor even animal blood sacrifices. Our belief systems HAVE evolved, which is a reflection of the development of our brains and of our souls.

We are evolving.. People are much taller than they were even 100 years ago, Skin colors are changing, certain congenital defects are getting reinforced due to better health care, etc.

As for language, you'd have to define language.

yet another rewording of the ridiculously absurd question,stripped of all the bells and whistles"If Evolution is true,why did we evolve"Can you people not see the terrible stupidity of the question?
