I'll be glad to. First of all, let's start with abiogenesis shall we.
yes lets
In the past, they thought that flies appeared from garbage itself.
and was disproved by scientists who tested its worthyness to become
a thoery, it fails correct
Two centuries later, that belief came up again but with bacteria and algae. A scientist came along again, and he showed that life only comes
from other life, including large animals and also algae and bacteria. That is basic biology.

Now there's that primordial soup thing, which is completely hypothetical btw (no proof..),

o'rly?
wherein a chain of chemical reactions took place and formed a single cell. Then a group of those cells grouped themselves together in colonies
to form more complex organisms. This turned into fish blabla and then turned into man.. According to this, every single creature can be traced back to
a single cell, which is represented by that tree of life.

someones been paying some attention
These are ALL ASSUMPTIONS. There is no proof whatsoever. They use these assumptions for the rest of the theory.
but not paying enough
attention it seems
assumptions means without testing

these are just some of the paper held on pubmed about chemical evolution
we may not know all the answers yet but everytime an experiement succeeds(and they really really have) we get closer
like the spontaeous creation hypothesis chemical evolution has and is bieng tested daily, but unlike the spontaneous creation hypothesis its being
proven right not wrong
not to mention organic compounds litterally litter the universe, and these organic compoiunds we have observed them form naturally, then recombine and
form more complex molecules
Rna the precursor to Dna has even been found in space along with numerous other naturally occuring molecules life on earth is dependant on

not assumption im afraid, its based on testing and our best of understanding of it from those tests
They are simply separate. I didn't make this up, a lot of paleontologists say so. After two centuries of intense research, the paleontological
evidence for evolution is VERY rare AND highly questionable.
it is? ahh so the evidence of Arceheopteryx displaying both reptilian and avarian
charachteristics
having a lung structure thats intermediary between reptilian and what is now found only in birds(they have very sepcialised lungs) but then we have
also found similar lung systems to arcaheopteryx in many dinosaurs even T-rex had basic through lung system which would turbo charge its edurance
rates,
how about the s shaped timpanic ear structure found only in cetaceans? that we have found and been able to trace back through intermediary fossils
back to ambulacetus a quadroped that is adapted to a semi aquatic life style(it lived kinda like otters) not only the timpanic ear bone, theres also
displayed in this fossil line up a drift of the nostrils higher and higher up the skull until it is fixed in the position we find today in certations,
again this fossil line up also shows atavistic reduction of the hind limbs to further support this line up, the skull attachment also shows the same
change over time, the placment of the inner ear shows the same drift pattern
we have multipul species of fish fossil showing an increase in amphbian charachteristics and fin modification to allow them to move on land then
continue to become legs
really you did make this up, or someone else did you just repeated it verbatim without bothering to check
There are no links. There is also no indication that the situation will change in the future. If you don't believe me, ask a paleontologist or
search about all those fake "apehumans" they made up with bones of man and apes.
i dont beleive you and i have spoken to palentologists and
more importantly i checked my own understanding and payed attention
which made up people are we talking about?
piltdownman? a hoax that was proven to be so by science
nebraska man? a misidentification proven to be so science
what happens when the body is found in situ and they cant make it up? like Lucy? like the bodies of 20 other australopithecus they found several mile
away that from the way thier remains were stacked it appears the group were killed by a flash flood
litterally thousands of skeletal remains of individuals in multipul species of transitional species from our common ancestor to modern man exist, try
lokking at some real science not answersingenesis they are a little unrealiable when they have claearly on thier site we will ignore every and any
scienctific findings that dont agree with the bible
Besides that, all the things they use as links, for example that flying reptile that had feathers, is still very far from conclusive.
your right it isnt 100% conclusive but when its combined with the many other seperate transitions shown in the fossil record the weight of evidence
while still not bieng 100% conclusive make it impossible to ignore
for it to be 100% conclusive we would need to invent a time machine go back in time sit there for millions of years and watch it
its beyond all reasonable dought, even the competing theory still has them eveloving not from dinosaurs but from and older common ancestor speices of
both dinosaurs and birds, and the evidence for this hypothesis is slim
Also a lot of paleontologists claim that humans did not change at all since their first appearance and that the whole apehuman thing should be
thrown in the garbage. They even call evolution a mythology.
ok time for a challenge name 10, name 10 palentologists of the last 10 years who
have said and still beleive this?
even Behe Phd the only really credable(well until the dover trial and what he said on the stand showing his extreme bias) accepts common decent
when the most qualified member of the discovery institute cant argue with the weight of evidence so has to accept it i think your making it up, or
again quoting verbatum what someone else without a clue made up
Now we go into evolution within the cells themselves. Biochemists say that mutations are not fixed to natural selection in the first
place.
because it isnt thats what evolutionary thjoery its self says
Natural selection only eliminations anomalies that mutation can create. It stabilizes. Nothing more, nothing less. If living organisms were
different in the past does not mean organisms have changed,
thats precisley what it means, natural selection weeds out the mutations that lead
to a disadvantage, when all those posative or benging mutations add up things change over time
only that they became extinct. They don't "make" new organisms. That's a BIG assumption they make.
based on overlapping evidence
from the fossil record dna analysis, comparative anatomy, taxonomy phylogenetics bio chemistry
no assumption my friend tested and proven
It's just a general agreement. No proof here. And even "simple" organisms like algae and bacteria are real complex and not something nature
just comes up with by chance.
good job evolution isnt bliond chance then but a strictly controlled mechanism of nature
Biochemists also claim that the basic of the life structure is the same but this does not mean that it evolved, but exactly the opposite, that
life stayed the same, because evolved life would mean a more complex structure and that's not the case.
no it means they share common traits
that in some way they are linked
and all the other evidence shows that evolution is the leading number 1 casue of change
The genetic data however, is different. When comparing man to other species, humans are original and did not evolve from any other
species.
except we share most of ouyr genetics with chimps, we know the average mutation rate per generation in a species, we know the genetic
variance of our dna and chimps we know the average generation rate of both species when you do the maths it works out dam near perfect when you factor
in disease and predation
Genetic data does not support an organism evolving into a more complex one at all.
except it does at every turn
we share 20,000 ERV's with chimps, for it to be purley random and not the result of common ancestry for just 16 of those its around
1 in 2,057,400,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,
000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,
000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
and thats just the 16 K class thing how much bigger thats numbers going to get with ALL 20,000
