actually dude. I just wrote a thesis for my Master's degree about this stuff. There isn't any proof at all that evolution is real. "Survival of the Fittest" can be proven because it's the kill or be killed. One must adapt to certain surroundings in order to stay alive. But I love how you completely disregard the other view has being wrong because you have "proof". You yourself haven't offered any of this "proof". and don't go and say that I only say that because "I'm Religious", because I'm not. However, everything is based on faith. Christians and creationists have a faith that God created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th. Nobody was around to see it happen so nobody can for certain say that it actually happened. Same with evolution. Have you ever seen a fish sprout legs and start walking on the ground? Have you ever seen a monkey actually become a person?
Nobody has. So neither side has any "Hard evidence" that one is right and the other is wrong. So arguing that one side has "Proof" is a totally false statement. but thank you for playing, better luck next time. But in your defense, The guy who made this thread is obviously a huge idiot. If you're going to try and make an argument, state your case in which humans can understand it. You alone sir give me reason to believe in evolution. If all of us did evolve from monkies, the guy who started this, obviously didn't get very far. |
Just wanted to point out that you are correct here in that evolution is not scientific law, just the leading theory for the creation of terrestrial life and the general unifying theory of biology. So although the scientific community doesn't know it's true, they are pretty damn sure. Sort of like the same way they are sure about gravity. Don't see too many people trying to argue with that theory. |

Actually facts and laws are on about the same level in science, they simply are a observation of the world around them. Theories are explanations of facts and laws and how they function together.
I actually had quite a long post planed out, however, right when i was done with it i hit the wrong button and lost all of it.....yeah i spent a hour typing the sob, so i will just post a youtube link stating the same argument.
its on ervs and how ervs are spread through out the human DNA sequence and are also spread through out other primate DNA in the same locations.

promise not a rick roll, not on this topic any way.
Sixpounder your knowledge of evolution is obviously small.
Evolution is defined as "the change of alleles in a population over time" which is readily proven and variable, look at your self the individual has an average of 125 mutations of the DNA that are separate what they are supposed to be from the parent, now the vast majority of this is "junk" DNA yet it is still change over time.
Lets not forget the thousands of transitional fossils found, not just ones for human evolution but other species, We have literally thousands of fossils on the tree of life showing how life has branched up, back this with biological, geographical, and astrological and you have a pretty good view of how life evolved. You have multiple fields of study coming to the same conclusion using the differant methods. and you think a simple college thesis is something that is proven?
