Maybe Vizio, who thinks that's a great post, can tell us more.

The people who claim man came from a dirt-product is.... wait for it..... the Bible believers. It's been a long time since I sat in a science class but even my hippie, leftist, intellectual professors, the people the fundies love to hate, never told me something magically grew out of the mud......so I'm anxious to hear more about this magic mud.
This may be too simple for you... but where is your body going when it is done on the earth? Where does every physical body go when its life expires? That may be an indicator of from where the physical body originated.

Your body decays when it dies that is provable, it doesn't go anywhere after it is buried or cremated.

What do you mean it doesn't go anywhere? It doesn't remain a body...

It returns to the dirt from where it came. Burying the body facilitates the process and makes it bearable.

Hopefully to the family plot that's bought and paid for. If I die in some horrible boating accident in shark infested waters and become part of the food chain...200 years from now people could be looking at an empty space and saying, "I wonder why they skipped a spot?"

Soooo... the evidence that comes through the sciences I listed in post #52 are what?

What sciences?

These:

Geological science. Chemical science. Biological science. Physical Geographic science. Physics science. Environmental science. Geophysics science. Glaciology science. Hydrological science. Meteorology science. Climatology science. Oceanography science. Soil science.

Which one of those do you not "believe" in.

BTW, one doesn't believe in science, one DOES or UNDERSTANDS science.

It becomes the atoms that it is now.

Those same atoms that were stardust at one point. Just after the Big Bang.

The I presume you assume that member is one, which is not what his words indicate. Besides, I don't live under the OC written Laws, but under the NC Law of the Spirit.
You probably would have condemned Jesus for calling Peter Satan.

First off , please refrain from altering my words when you quote them . It is dishonest , is against CD rules and defined as trolling by CD , and competent posters can get their points across without having to change or add words in others posts.

Second, of course the scientific method requires what you ask. Are you one of those that mistakenly believe this hasnt been done with evolution?

Was this meant as a serious post?

I altered nothing. I asked a question in the middle of the quote, in blue, and then added on to the end, again in blue. You think too much of yourself, and your kindergarten style veiled threats do not impress me.
And to answer your question, yes, I have yet to see where the theory of the process of evolution, where a simple, single cell of protozoa becomes a tadpole that grows up to swing from trees who learns to walk upright and develops opposable thumbs over the course of billyuns and billyuns of years (Carl Sagan pronunciation added for dramatic effect) has been observed, measured, or repeated.
