Show me Shakey. leave out the text books they have been found to be full of errors. Isn't that why you kind of reject the bible..because of what you perceive to be errors? Paul

That's an easy one, Paulwa. Surely you've heard of Archaeopteryx . The first fossils of it were found over 150 years ago.
Archaeopteryx looks like a modern bird at first glance with wings and feathers, but it has teeth instead of a beak and has claws at the end of its wings and a long tail.. It's clearly an intermediate form between dinosaurs and modern birds.
The fossil record shows THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of similar intermediate forms between species that are clear proof of a new species in the process of evolving from an earlier one.
You are obviously in denial since evolution is incompatible with your interpretation of the Bible. I seriously doubt that any amount of evidence would change your mind.
Nearly ALL Christian denominations have come to accept evolution as a fact. It's only the most extreme fundamentalists that refuse to see reality.

Do not believe archy was an intermediate but only an early specie that died out, he didn't look like a stable life form anyway.Where are these other thousands of intermediates you speak of? Lets take alook at them. Probably some of them were brought back from the brink by the evidence of something as simple as a pigs tooth representing early man. None of those so called thousands, Ghoti will stand up under the light of scrutiny and you know it if you have studied the facts. Where is your so called proofs Shakey?
I have seen the evidences presented and refuted by top scientists with their very persuasive arguments.Yes they were creationists but I agree with their findings as any one would who was fair minded. Why would I listen to the evolutionjary scientists with their ifs, ands and may have and maybe's to prove their arguments.
You are absolutely right Shakey, none are so blind as those who refuse a God who created all and turned down all the evidence for it right under their blind eyes. Paul

The very first post of this thread claimed that there are over 600 scientists throughout the world who have doubts abut evolution. I did a little research and found that there are 480,000 scientists in the US alone, let alone the entire world.
So where does that leave those 600 doubters among the community of scientists? Since there surely must be at least a million scientists world-wide, those 600 add up to less than 1 tenth of 1% of the global family of scientists.
Among people who have examined all the evidence with an open mind there is no doubt that evolution is a PROVEN FACT and not "just a theory".

How would you be privy to such scientific info, MerryA??
It is not even a hypothesus on Newtons nose, Ghoti but there are many foolhardy believers of Darwin around and the proof will bowl all of your so called scientists over as fools soon, Ghoti. Till then y'all canbelieve whatever flimsy evidence you have for evolution. If I was going to be around here after the rapture I would make you a very nice bet but it won't matter you are welcome to every bit of money we have and anything else youlike because I won't be needing it any longer.

Paulwa, I gave you the example you requested and yet you still reject evolution. Would 1000 examples change your mind?
You've made up your mind that there is a basic conflict between the concept of evolution and your theology and will stick to your position no matter how much contrary evidence could be provided. That's too bad, since it closes your mind to seeing new things.
IMO science is the best possible way to truly appreciate the glory of the creator. Tying your thinking to ancient texts instead of opening your mind to new information is intellectual stagnation rather growth, and I refuse to do so.
You're putting all your theological eggs into one very small basket, and for your sake I hope you're right or you may find the afterlife a bitter shock.
