Why do people try to comment on topics about which they know nothing? It only makes them look dumber.

You are correct to say there is no proof , all we have is evidence , an overwhelming amount of it.
If you stare at a Cow and a Horse for the next 100 million years you might see that todays Horse and Cow are ‘ middle products ‘ or they might be like the alligator , perfectly suited to their environment and they won’t change.
What we can see in the fossil records is lots and lots of different animals that do not exist today. We can also see , what appears to be a gradual progression , say from an amphibian to a reptile. If we remove this gradual progression from the framework of Evolution , that would mean , God ( ? ) created a slightly different creature every 20 million years or so , to live alongside or sometimes to replace the original creature.
You can see many ‘ Middle Products ‘ alive today , and if you get to live 100 or 200 million years you will also see the final , or next product in the evolutionary chain .
PS : Why are you asking a science question in the R & S section ?

Your right of course in saying if one fails then the other can fail too. But your obviously forgetting that what creation theory science is saying that your theory no longer stands! There are loads of scientists who say the facts of new science is proving the old wrong. They don't say it because they believe in God or just because they don't like evolution. They have facts to back their opinions. How can these people not be called scientists when that's their profession? Anthony Flew was a great fighter for evolution and atheism, but he said there has to be a creator of all this as the evidence just leaps out at you. Evolution has had 150 years or so and it is yet to prove anything it is all based on assumptions. That is not real science, Science starts with theory and builds on it. all it has done is put theory on top of theory and called them facts. Time is the answer to everything, given time this all happened, that is not facts that's conjecture! We know so much more about life and the universe, Even hardened evolution scientist shut up and can't answer questions put to them about how life evolved from nothing into complex life. If we are asking science to look at evidence and produce it for understanding of who and what we are, then why is it that anyone who looks at other evidence is ridiculed and called non science? They are not able to fill in the blanks so why not look to others , more modern and see what they have to say, instead a great deal of effort is put in to shutting them up. Can you accept this? I can't if science is closed to criticism then it is no longer science.

That's not how evolution works, that's why!
If you want to understand why you'll never see a crocoduck, go to the library and get the book "The Ancestor's Tale" by Richard Dawkins. It's a HUGE book, but don't worry, I won't tell you to read all of it. Open the book up to the Table of Contents. Find the chapter called "The Slamander's Tale" and go to that page. Read that chapter. Don't worry, it's only about five pages long.
All will be explained.
To unbiased: It's theoretical, not hypothetical. The hypothesis has already been proven and is supported by the theory.
That's correct - we didn't evolve from monkeys, but we do share a common ancestor with modern monkeys.

We do see ligers and tions as well as mules (a mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse). Unfortunately, these offspring are an evolutionary cul de sac as they are usually sterile. When 2 species intermingle the result is usually impotent offspring....or sometimes a new species!

I was watching this episode of "Missouri Conservationist" the other day (there was nothing else on) and they showed a species of fish that is actually in the process of evolving. It's only found in Missouri's caves but scientists have been following it and recording the changes it's going through. I wish I could remember the name of that fish but I'm sure you could look it up.

Unfortunately you have been lied to by religious people intent on hiding the actual truth from you.
We actually have found thousands of creatures in transitional forms, but you will never hear about them in church.
Please do some www searching on the internets for transitional fossils.
If you are willing to truly look at fact, you will see that the missing links are no longer missing.

Put down the lying church propaganda, pick up a science book, and and learn about fossils and other evidence of Evolution. You are proof that it NEEDS to be taught in public schools.

I'll second what "ɹɐǝɟsuɐs VT victim" said. Evolution is a very real facet of science, and if you want to know more about it, don't seek information from ignorant (i.e., closed-minded) fundies.

There are a myriad of "middle products"
You are vastly confused. I recommend some college level textbooks... and ease up on the creationism websites.

I mean you absolutely no offense --- I am a creationist. But that is not at all how the theory of evolution is proposed to work. It is survival of the fittest that produces new and 'improved' species --- not species interbreeding, which almost always creates sterile (unable to breed) animals.
Again, I don't agree with evolution --- but what you have posited doesn't have anything to do with evolution.
