[_ Old Earth _] God's cruel joke

they just haven't seen the whale evolve

No, but we have found intermediary fossils of whales with legs...

I haven't researched that one.

Either way, irrelevant to my point...

Of course it's irrelevant, you're a wall of ignorance, and such fossils clearly give support to keebs' claims of the validity of evolution, thus irrelevancy.

give me the missing link in evolution first. in human evolution. oh wait its missing, cuz it doesnt exist

No, Syntax Vorlon, it is irrelevant. My only point was that we haven't observed the evolution of the whale from it's *supposed* ancestor.....We've either observed it or not....

Missing link is a misnomer, Joeri.

Whoa-hoa! Observation isn't the only thing that drives knowledge, Darcky boy.

Never said it was. But it is very important for evolution. If you can observe it, you don't have to speculate and make predictions of what evolved from what...

Vorlon, keep up those kind of edged remarks and You'll get a warning too.[/color]

Well of course we didn't observe it because it happened way before we were even thinking about observing such things...however, fossil evidence is evidence enough. Oh, and just because we didn't observe the whale evolve doesn't mean we haven't observed evolution (just thought I'd make that clear).

The Fossil records of the creature you claim to have existed we're made up. Go do the research.

 

[keebs]

HAHAHAHA... :roll:

 

[Featherbop]

Of course, some evolution has been observed. But, that does not indicate macroevolution, evolution over millions of years periods...

If you haven't observed it, then the evidence is still open for disscussion and speculation. I'm not even sure that legged whales would be a problem for YEC....Anyhow, My point is, if you haven't observed the event, you cannot be 100% sure of it having had happened. Many ideas about evolutionary goings on exist. The truth is, we are dealing with old, worn, fossils, and sketchy evidence....We can't even be sure we are putting this puzzle together right. Try to understand from my POV. Am I not being clear enough with anything.

My point is, if you haven't observed the event, you cannot be 100% sure of it having had happened.

Did you observe God create the earth and all of the living creatures?

My point is, that although you can't observe it directly, indirect evidence is still evidence.

That's very Odd, keebs. You don't give the same Credit to the evidence fro Jesus. Which by the way, is more excepted than most evolutionary proof.

 

[keebs]

If there is no God, Jesus doesn't matter. However, I do believe Jesus existed...although I think his life has become more of a legend than it truly was...

See, your presenting a subjective arguement. You'll only except evidence if it agrees with your side of the story.

Then thats the problem. Neither of us has proof. Exactly why I think this disscussion is, and will always be pointless.

 

[keebs]

You seem to be ignoring my statement that "indirect evidence is still evidence."

 

[Blazin Bones]

You seem to be ignoring the fact that you are argueing froma subjective point.
