Is a singularity "nothing" or "something" I'm confused...
What is a "singularity?"
A point?
Spec?
Dot?
Smudge?
Smear?
Area?
Something?
Nothing?
Confusion?
Which comes first, gas or stars
Dogs remain as dogs.
Just like you can't morph an elephant into a gazelle.
We have elephants.
&
We have gazelle!

and certainly one of the oldest.

It is the earliest primate that has opposable thumbs and provides a link between Lemurs(Prosimians) and all other primates (Simians.)

Or so they say.
Do you really believe you descened from a lineage of lemurs?
One more thing, I still don't know if dinosaurs died out, or morphed into current creatures?
Did they go exstinct?
Did they morph?
Why did the "Plesiasoar, etc..." die out but aligators, sylocanths, etc... live on?
They are both sea dewellers..

TruthxIsxInxThexMist, you are extremely ignorant.
It is obvious, if you know anything about history and culture, that different regions produce different styles of art, different religions, and different languages. This is because there is no universal civilization, and there was no possible way to standardize a language due to the vast distances between groups of people.
Different ethnicities came about because of evolution. Africans have dark skin to protect them from the sun, seeing as Africa is a continent of plains and desert.
Also, we did not evolve from apes. We share a common ancestor.
These things are only obvious, and one would have to be extremely ignorant to ask questions like you have.
One more thing, whether you believe Evolution or not, it is a scientific fact.
Edit: I found the article I was looking for. www.sciencedaily.com...

What makes you say that?
Do you have any proof besides the typical, "Dr. Ego said this"
We do?
Is it that lemur?
What things?
That we descended from an unknown "common ancestor?"
My god, dude, you have got to be kidding me.
Give me break, haha...
Where-T-F do you get your factorial information from, and how do you know that information IS FACT?

The sudden absence of a large portion of the predators gave these small, burrowing mammals room to grow and evolve.

Genetics, along with the fossil record, show that we share a common ancestor with other apes.
Originally posted by PieKeeper
We know this information is fact because it's been proven time and time again. There is overwhelming proof.
Please, inform yourself.

What did these mammals evolve from?
The fossil record does not show that we share any common ancestor with anything!
All it shows are individual species.
No transitional species.
All your links you show me describe how evolution should work, they don't prove that it actually does work.

The first one shows how a group of lizards over a period of about 30-40 years developed new digestive structures. This is evolution in work.

The second contains a lot of information. You should probably read some of it before you dismiss it completely.

Evolution is an observable phenomena.

The Theory of Evolution deals with how Evolution works. It does not deal with whether or not Evolution works, because the fact that Evolution happens is a prerequisite for the Theory of Evolution to exist.
Originally posted by SolofrontWait, now which one are talking about, m or M?

By the way, Micro and Macro Evolution are part of the same process. For you to say "Micro" is an admittance to the fact that Evolution occurs.
I have a theory that theres a supermodel in my closet, so your telling me I have to have an actual supermodel in my closet in order for me to have a theory.
Explain to me how polystrate fossils and the like are found within layers of sediment which...according to M.E. were layed down over a period of millineia.
Which would make the bottom half of the fossil older than the top half.
Polystrate trees too, would have crumbled before the millions of years it "would" of took to cover them.
Such examples demonstrate rapid and catastrophic sedimentary burial, as opposed to slow sedimentary that is accumulated as envisioned by the evolutionary community.
