Every time you get the flu you're suffering from evidence of evolution. The more complex the organism the longer it takes.

That is irrelevant.  The relevant thing is the error rate when DNA copies itself.

You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

amazing the crap people will swallow as long as it's wrapped in .phd. that might explain the existence of certain types of "humans" but it doesn't account for reality.

i wouldn't be so quick to swallow the crap the monkey people are tossing any more than i would the holy rollers. it would be very somewhat more believable if all the conjecture was based on some evidence that involved more than a single fossilized tooth or toe bone found by accident. the crap muckers still haven't figured out how small limited bands turned into large populations of more advanced design in less time than it took for the monkeys to stand upright. by now even high school dropouts know human inbreeding does not yield the same results that the monkey theorists are trying to get us to believe.

You dont need to swallow their crap.  The stories they weave are just educated guesses. They dont know the entire story, far from it.  When something new is found it will change all their theories.  If nothing is found the story will never be complete.

Personally I find geology a little more factual (since it is based on physical evidence and real world logic) than strange stories about poof, the humans appear.  To this day I do not think there has been any physical evidence that magic is real. Zip, Zero, Zilch, Nadda, Nothing, Not once.

Of course it doesn't account for reality, we're all here because of Xenu.


All glory to Xenu!!!!!!

One thing that fascinates me is, more then you would think, I run into people who dont know a thing about the science of evolution. I mean not even that it exists. I tell them of the evidence of the evolving human animal and they look at me like Im nuts. Its not that they just believe in Adam, Eve at al ; Its that they never even heard about the scientific theory.

And these arent dumb people. Or completely uneducated. When I tell them we share 97% of the same DNA as chimpanzees they look at me like Im nuts.

They know it -- they just don't know that they know it.  Everyone has a reasonable idea of how different breeds of dogs come about, for example.

a breed isn't a new species. regardless of what the primitives attempt to claim, you can't get a possum after 5,000 years of dog breeding even though they are both mammals.
