Yet they can't really PROVE it. If I were a judge and they brought their case before me in a court I'd toss them all out for wasting the court's time.
I learned that the evolutionary "trees" only compared shared and derived characteristics of organisms. It does not prove that one creature "evolved" from another organism.

True, proof is really for math and logic not the scientific method. Eusebius seems to think otherwise.

I'm not high on myself. Just because I am sure of myself one should not confuse that as being high on myself.

Shiloh, I have been told in this thread that the fossil record proves evolution. Well, if it does, let them prove their assertion. There is no need to explain endogenous retroviruses to you. They do not prove humans evolved from single celled amoebas to fish to chimps to become humans. Just show me the beef.
Where's the beef?

No, you have been told that it is historical evidence, something you said we did not have. If the Theory of Evolution were true this is something you would predict and expect - and that is exactly what happened. Where are your predictions?

Get off this idea of proof - we are giving you pieces of evidence that have a predictive value to the Theory of Evolution. It is another piece of evidence that we share a common ancestor. I will take your lack of response as an implicit inability to understand what it is you are trying to deny.

Once again you have nothing, no proof, no evidence, and no predictions of your 'God dun it' scenario.

Oh, Okay Shiloh, if you say so. LOL. If it makes you feel good. I sympathize when you've painted yourself in a corner and have no way out to prove your evolution religion.

Instead of barfing-up links in response to me why not just deal with the evidence. Because you can't!

Real Scientist - Oh Vey! So these guys are actually doing science regarding the creation of the universe by God - not Creationists who do science. Yeah right. LMAO!

As if I can't point to scientists who disagree - Fallacious arguments you abound in my friend.

Eusebius, trumpet and Viz had best hope willful ignorance isn't way up there in the sin hierarchy.

I am convinced that most devoutly religious Christians who are Creationists will not change their viewpoint on such matters until they can somehow be made to drop this kind of internally generated, religious rapture. I think it tells the person that God and the Bible supersede all science and for that matter, any clear evidence that does not conform to their belief.

Keep in mind that this is just a hypothesis and I am willing to change it or discard it altogether if there is conflicting evidence.
