As a product of the public school system, I always assumed that evolution was fact. Majoring in science in college, I began having my doubts about the scientific logic of evolution. The first organism that I learned about that was not explainable by evolution was the woodpecker. There is no way that it could have evolved with so many specialized organs. It could only be explained by being created with all of its specialized organs all at one time. It still took me about 15 years to come to the conclusion that God created the heavens and the earth in six literal days.

For goodness' sake, JeeperZ. No, they don't. Animals that are born different in some way, and are more successful because of that difference, and procreate and are lucky enough to pass on those specific genes that are better for its environment/survival at that particular time, initiate a particular phase of evolution in that particular animal.
Neither do brain-dead Creationists get any smarter. It seems from what they continue to post and claim, that they prefer to remain dumb and arrogant, not to mention distinctly uneducated and un-read.
It's obvious, JerZ, that our noisy hero here has so little undertsanding of the key elements of functioning Evolution that he could not define them for us if he was politely asked. NOTE: in order to actively and intelligently debate anything (bird's nest design, how toothpaste works, how to make a true Caesar's salad, or how Evolution actually functions..) you should have to have at least a passing understanding of exactly how it is supposed to work..
Sadly for Creationism, the wildly inaccurate mistakes this poster and others here continue to make tells us all we need to know: they get everything they re-parrot directly from some nonsense-filled Christian Creationist website, and they then happily take THAT to be the God's Gospel Truth, even though we can easily show it to be as full of holes as Swiss chesse. The sad fact that they then happily re-spewl it out as some sort of Fact, is pretty damning.
(Next Q: how do those holes get in the cheese, JeeperZ? Do you know anything at all?)
Keep it up. It's v. good for our side's argument when you continue to demonstrate that you cannot answer even the most basic of questions about, well heck.. anything! Specifically, I'm still waiting for your definitions of "proof", "evidence" and let's add in "the Scientific Method". G'head: make my day!
Francis Crick concluded that the earth must be older than 4 1/2 billions of years old
Show me a testable mathematical formula for such a wild "assumption"!
Moderator cut: Orphaned
Math is not needed.....Testing recent meteorites which haven’t suffered much erosion is the method used.... Their interiors give an age that dates back to their formation at the beginning of the solar system. Nearly all meteorites have the same radiometric age, 4.56 billion years old. Therefore, the solar system, including the Earth, is about the same age.

The fact that Jeeperz put Dawkins in the title trying to convince people it's Richard Dawkins, when it isn't, shows just how deceptive and dishonest creationists are to justify their lies.
