Exactly,

This is the big Darwin lie when it comes to evolution. Evolution occurs in huge leaps not small steps. This occurs on a genetic level not a biological level.

This is why you don't find small steps in the fossil record but huge leaps and well defined species.

Darwin looked at the fossil record and he was puzzled that he didn't find these small steps all through the crusts of the earth. He and others who follow him then came up with a theory that has never been verified because it's wishful thinking. Darwin and others have tried to explain why we don't see these small steps and this is the theory of evolution. It's false and just pie in the sky wishful thinking from hardcore darwinist.

"As by this theory, innumerable transitional forms must have existed. Why do we not find them embedded in the crust of the earth? Why is not all nature in confusion instead of being, as we see them, well defined species?" — Charles Darwin

Again, Darwin came up with a theory to try and explain why he didn't see the chaos in the fossil record and only well defined species appear. This is just wishful thinking.

Very well put. It speaks to both intelligent design and evolution. However, where the intelligent design comes from may or may not be what you or I believe. I just had to give you a S&F for your well thought out reply.

Well said.
In biology class students disect frogs because there internal layout is so simmilar to a humans. Is this proof of frogs being on the evolutionary line? Is that proof of a possibility of the secret humanoid reptilian race?

well that is the miracle of science. It is always changing. Evolutionists are not like all those "sheep" people with their religions. Evolutionists take a more scientific approach that constantly changes according to what they are told.

Yes these huge leaps is where the debate begins. so a species is going along then all of a sudden BOOM they are somthing ore advanced. Could there be some kind of intelligent design? Oh no that is CRAZY right? It must be some random unproven genetic mutation for which there is no explanation, now that is more scientific.


Exactly,

This is intelligent design. It's all in the code within what's called Junk DNA.

If we figure out this code we would be able to close and cancel out diseases like diabetes just like we can close and cancel out lines of HTML.

I think Darwinist are hurting this process with this pie in the sky theory. There are no small steps because evolution is a product of design.

Proponents of intelligent design have long maintained that Neo-Darwinism's widely held assumption that our cells contain much genetic "junk" is both dangerous to the progress of science and wrong. As I explain here, design theorists recognize that "Intelligent agents typically create functional things," and thus Jonathan Wells has suggested, "From an ID perspective, however, it is extremely unlikely that an organism would expend its resources on preserving and transmitting so much ‘junk'." Design theorists have thus been predicting the death of the junk-DNA paradigm for many years:

Darwin's theory is a big lie based on false assumptions. He didn't find his chaos in the fossil record and he tried to explain it with this bogus theory.

Yes i think this is the common misconception of intelligent design. People who do not agree with it just say it's religion trying to be science. intelligent design is really just a theory that these changes observed in a species may be the product of intelligence rather than chance. Now if the intelligent design is done by the spirit, god or the subconscience is up for debate. Both ID and evolution have their flaws and can't be explained at this point.
intelligent design would say the thumb was developed out of need for a thumb while evolution would say a thumb appeared.

Yep, read about this on link from Drudge report awhile ago. I was blown away. "finger nails like humans and that bone in da foot that we still have etc...

I now wait for all the creationist nut jobs to come out of the word works and the wide eyed "believers from christian sciences studies trying to knock holes in another great advancement in a "great find" by scientist and researchers that "really" are looking for the truth/

Because they have similar fingernails doesn't mean it's the missing link lol. For god sakes we can have heart transplants with pegs does that mean pegs are the missing link due to the fact that we seem to have compatable hearts? It is a rediculouse argument. If transitions did exist we should see it every where inbetween every specy, that means that there should be more half developed species than fully developed instead every fossil we discover is fully developed.

Stop closing your brain just because you don't want to believe. You don't have to believe in one thing or another to be human that is an advice from me.


There's no such thing as a "half developed species" because we would have no way of knowing how a species that is in the process of undergoing speciation will look in, say 45 million years. We can only look back at the fossil records that we find and try to put the puzzle together.

Ida shows a species that shares common physical traits with great apes such as human and gorilla. It shows that at a point, there was a species that transitioned from lemur to great ape. Scientists do not claim that we evolved from chimpanzees or gorillas. Scientists theorize that the primate branch separated from lemurs at one point, and that all great apes and hominids share a common ancestor. That is what Ida shows: a common ancestor.

Here are some resources on transition species/speciation

A great breakdown on transition species and why it's hard to document complete lineages

Explanation of Cladistics and Transitional Fossils

Also, I'm unable to find information on pig hearts commonly being used for human transplant? I know there's been a lot of research because pig hearts are the basic size of a human's and they have compatible heart valves, but I was unaware that the surgery and become common, or even practiced at all.

To Mack (or whomever said the reason why kids dissect frogs is because they are similar to humans)...well that's just silly. Frogs have the same basic 6th grade anatomy of a human, but humans are quite a bit more complex. They are 'similar' in the fact that they have a heart, lung, stomach, circulatory system, and nervous system, but that's pretty much it.
