PS.  It is a known fact that species evolve.  It is not a theory, it is a fact.  



Do they de-evolve?

If so, why?

If not, why not?

The basic building blocks of single celled organisms have been created in test tubes. Electricity, water, and prehistoric atmosphere combined to produce complex ammnio acids. Can you really ignore the fact that once this happened in the right circumstances life was inevitable?

Do you happen to know the odds of "this happening in the right circumstances"?

On a global scale almost certain....

Temps within -60 to 220 degrees F
CO2 or O2
Water
Electricity
Possibly radiation

After you mix these its a matter of a few million years until the right wires get crossed. Radiation, mutations, evolution, and intermixing of species as led us to what you see today.

Is there a fossil record to support all of this evolution?

I think you'll find no shortage of mocking among atheists. Until the origin of space and time is known, no quest for truth can deny the possibility of a creator.
I don't know too much about the atheists, do they mock the truth also?

moot..  I have to disagree with you here..  If science will not entertain the thought of the supernatural then it is a false science.    A true science may conclude that things supernatural are extremely unlikely but....

Now, I have not seen the documentary.. I do believe in a god and I do believe in creation...  I am not sure how  or when.   How could I be?

I do find it odd tho how vitroholic and angry the reviews are.. how quick they are to discredit this movie but how fawning and blind they are about the likes of moores and albores total crap moivies they were.

It is hard to put much faith or trust in people who would have such a blind and obvious agenda.

I will go to see the movie myself.   It may be crap but.. How could it be worse than an albore or moore film?

Maybe it is tho...  athiests and lefties don't have a monopoly on agenda and blind faith.

Evolving is the offspring of change over the course of time, so if it is possible to go back in time, then it is possible to de-evolve. :aok

Is adaptation the same as evolution?

A simple google search should saddle you up with a few weeks of reading.

species do not de-evolve. they evolve into a different version based on many different factors over a long period of time.
evolving my take a form of something that appears de-evolved from a previous version, but is simply a reaction to environmental conditions.

Thats what I was gonna say Donzo...

If I go outside and get hot but carry on by adaptation, did I just evolve?
Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother, Colin. Or my younger brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin. - Tim Vine.
