You're right. If Darwin is so smart, then why is he DEAD.

ok einstein, i take it you have never heard of a tetrapod.

Then where does one species end and other species begin? This would make each fossil a new species.

Species don't evolve from other species, there has NEVER been a transitional fossil of ANY species from one to another, even from CRO-MAGNON MAN to HOMOSAPIEN. And don't believe this "facts are the worlds data" crap unless you can prove it yourself, otherwise your going on someone else's PERCEPTION of the world's data. --- "Listen to everything, believe nothing, unless you can prove it''

Il probably get grief for this or ignored even, but its my opinion. The guy didnt know what he was talking about.


A scientist that created a theory of something like the origin of life. One whom should be respected in history for bringing such claims up in his time.
In the true sense of the term, i believe you to be the idiot for bringing absolutely nothing to the table, and ridiculing someone who spent his life for science. Even if the theory of evolution is false, it was only a theory, and it brought much knowledge to us. You should be thanking him.

-----edit---------

I dropped out of highschool yet i still understand the concept of evolution, but it seems you're too blind to even think about it

The theory states that:

One single cell organism split apart, into two. Now one mutation that could occur between the two (Evolution) could be that one is adapted to oceans, and the other to the shores.

Lets say the first organism created duplicated into ehh 100 same-copy organisms. Call em Class-A

Class-A drifts apart until one Class-A is 100 miles away from the spawn region.

Class-A 100 miles away adapts into a sunny area, and mutates into a more sun rich type thing organism Class-B

Class-B multiplies untill theres another mutation and so on.


Now theres Class-A and Class-Z (Z is from 26 mutations.) Class-Z looks more landlocked since it went to shore half way through mutations, and becomes Land plants. Class-B (the one that mutated differently than the A-Z line) turns into Animal-type cells.

Add a billion years, and we all have the same "Mother" Therefore we have cucumber cousins.

Yes and no, every fossil could be classified as a different species as much as a man with 8 toes could be classified as a new species.

Being in a constant state of transition leaves no definite black/white border, but obvious stages of development where by if looked at skeleton by skeleton over the billions, the changes would be obvious.

Charles Darwin was Anything But an Idiot, Infact he was a Genious to have come up with such a theory and Overcome Huge scrutiny from Bigot christians who were unhappy that he could prove that the Bible was Bull***t, Anyone who has that amount of courage and determination to change the way the Obscene world thinks is Un-deniably great, Scientists these days have Proven his work to be wrong in parts however they have the means and the equipment that wasnt available to Darwin when he Wrote about his theories, Also did Darwin ever say his conclusion was 100% Accurate, No. Infact he outlined that the fact that he could be wrong on many points but was the Guy acheived in his lifetime was nothing less than Great

Do you have a theory about how such a diversity of life came to be?

I haven't concretely defined mine, but to put it shorty it involves a conscious universe becoming self-aware to experience itself in an infinite number of ways. Evolution of species fits in with my view of reality, not as a driving force but as a consequence of the structure of evolving consciousness.

love the neo-hippie look


Evolution is merely an old Greek word for change.

so what's your theory as to the origin of species and life in general?

or are you one of those all life was created unchanging types?

en.wikipedia.org...

Information on Tetrapods above as you clearly need to read up on these things Before flapping about Oppinions that have no basis to fact, Darwin spent his whole life trying to understand Life better, And you have spent 2 minutes to say it was all wrong despite an obvious lack of understanding of Anything to do with his theories

Lewman, a teacher of mine used to say "Never argue with an idiot: bystanders might not be able to tell the difference".

Such an assertion, so ignorant of the fossil record..

Mind you, ignorance does not equate to stupidity; merely lack of facts.
