But it only took a thumb....arrow or missile...a sword....a cannon....a nuclear bomb...

Each subsequent little change has an equal and opposite reaction.

The so-called Evolution Theory camp cant come up with 1 decent argument to the statement above. So its not a lame website. What it does is it offers an alternative view
Here's a real scientific website. From a real biologist. Who know all about these lame attempts to discredit Evolution using the "Cambrian Explosion" example.....Read it...And you'll know what poppycock your website is.

Pharyngula: The Cambrian as an evolutionary exemplar

I do know that I'm not descended from apes and regarding 'real' scientific website vs 'poppycock' ones..I'm still not convinced because the 'poppycock' site do have valid questions and statements which 'scientific' ones have no answers to

I don't think you get it.

We are all decedents of one spectacular event. Some call us a virus, organism, infection...whatever.

Only the strong survive doesn't mean just physically. In fact physical strength alone doesn't do much good....but substitute objective thinking in and a whole new world comes alive

The only "debate" about evolution is in the social arena...and I don't even validate people who want to debate evolution with me.
In the scientific community, there is no debate.

Very true. It's the evangelicals that have the most problem with it. Because they insist the Bible is the world of God and that it must be literally true. Hence we get their "museums" with pictures of cavemen riding on the backs of Brontosaurus...LOL

And little kids running around playing with small raptors... http://timesonline.typepad.com/photo..._dinosaurs.jpg

Religion has no place in this debate..which is true if the reference point was the bible because of its numerous errors but then im not christian so i don't get sucked down by all the unscientific errors in it

I'm fortunate then. I can again sum up rebuttal to your supposed arguments in just a few words: all talk, no show.
