It stands to reason that there would be such fossils, no? If there is no such find, I don't see the theory ever being accepted without some question. Evolution may be, I suspect it is, a fact. However, without fossilized evidence, there will always be some question to its validity, even amongst its proponents.
Negative... look up the definition. It becomes a Law when it satisfies ALL Factual Data... this means it has been tested and is deemed to never be incorrect.
You are also mistaken that Theories can become fact. This is backwards. Theories attempt to draw conclusions from facts. when those conclusions are proven to be correct beyond a shadow of a doubt, it becomes law.
Darwin applied what is called the scientific method... meaning as he discovered new facts he modified his theory to correctly incorporate those facts.
name the last time the bible was edited, or that religion changed it's dogma to accept new facts.
Newtons laws? you have to be joking.
Newtons Laws of motion have never been, and probably will never be proven wrong... ever.
you do know Newtons Laws right?
I think what you meant is they do have all known variables... its the unknown that causes errors... but, as new information becomes available, science textbooks are modified to reflect these discoveries.
I'm sure the Bible gets revised when proven inaccurate too right?
Did you just admit that your deity isn't Omnipotent?
I guess he isn't as "all powerful" as religion would want us to believe...

newtons laws only apply to motion on the planet earth or possibly a planet exactly like earth
why create laws within a universe if your going to step outside them and render them void kinda defeats the purpose,

I FULLY believe in creationism.
I don't believe ATS is slanted against us, just the Universities and science fields.
Are you asking us to bring evidence for creation, here?
We had that last year, and before that.
I believe God created the world and all that is here. Sin deformed it, and some changes have occurred WITHIN species, but the evolutionists skew fossils and geology to 'fit' their dogma.
I also think some creation videos are boring and/or too simplistic, maybe we could get a grant from a University for research, No?

2. The big bang theory doesn't make any sense.

3. Creationism is usually bashed, not because that it states that god created the universe, but because of all the other weird little claims about the actual age of the earth, and that dinasours never existed etc.

Ashley, its not so that you believe in God or a creator that gets people's blood boiling. It's when people throw out scientific facts or "Theres no monkey in my family" argument. Perhaps I've spent abit too much time dealing with the fundies who hang on the words of the Hovinds, Ken Ham's, and Ray Comforts of the world.

MOST, and I do mean the vast majority of 'creationists' on ATS who participate in this forum, are not of the 'uber fundie creationist' variety. Most of us do believe in an older earth and universe, accept aspects of evolution, believe the dinosaurs existed, are unsure about a literal six day creation, etc. When we get flamed on this forum, it generally has to do with us acknowledging the existence of a creator (hence 'creationists' although not the term as the controversy defines it) and our criticism of evolution and flaws within the theory.

Uhh no. We don't think Evolution explains the origins of life. Evolution picks up once life evolves. Abiogenesis is what deals with the creation of life. While we haven't gotten a full blown artifical cell yet, we're quite close. Scientists have created artificial DNA and artificial lipid layer already.
