This video illustrates how creationists probably think science says evolution happens...

Not...exactly. A species that never splits and goes extinct can't really be called transitional.

This is my first private message on this site. I have to say, i'm a little bummed!
That's how they 'debate'. They think the winner is the one who spews the most insults.

Hey, you're back. You never did respond to the quote-mining you did in the other thread - care to take a swing at it now?

Hmm - never really thought about it that way, but that's a valid point.

......and how do you debate? By conveniently ignoring the posts that prove you wrong? I see you handily ignored my post about the fish fossil you said didn't exist.

Same thing happened with the Peking man. In that case too, the scientists concealed the fact they also found modern human skulls in the same pit. Why do they hide evidence? Because they are so eager to prove they have found the missing link everyone has been looking for. The Peking man was smaller human, much like the pygmies of Kalahari today.

Richard Leakey found "skull 1470", which he claimed was the missing link. He helped science by modifying the skull to make it look older than it was. lol.

Lucy was found in Ethiopia, and she was the missing link until scientists agreed it was just a chimp.

Ramapithecus was the missing link until scientists agreed it was just an ape.

The best for last, the Nebraska man. Someone found a tooth, and built the missing link creature around the tooth, and the result looked like something the between an ape and a man, THE MISSING LINK. It was a tooth of a pig. lol

People are so eager to prove the evolution theory, that they will invent the missing links, and sometimes they are so eager to believe it, they believe in poor science. The public will believe ANYTHING the scientists tell them, which has been the case with every new missing link, invented ones, and the ones which have been honest mistakes.
Well, NONE of that was correct. Oh, and if you are going to copy and past someone else's work, you are required, by the rules of this forum, to cite the source. Otherwise, it is considered plagiarism.

The Java Man skullcap

Oh, and just for future reference, if you are going to argue from such an obviously deceptive position, just keep in mind that there are a lot of people on CD forums who aren't as stupid, as gullible, and as scientifically illiterate as you are.

Yes it can. Extinction is certainly a transition, and certainly is an important part of the theory of evolution.
