Evolution? How?

Hey, MA, I thought you weren't talking to me any more, so I just ignore your posts.

neo, I have never in my life claimed I have a superior intellect. As a matter of fact, if you've read most of my posts about me, my most common claim is "I was the black sheep of our family." "All my siblings did well in school, while I barely graduated high school." If that's bragging about my "superior intellect," you're mistaking me for somebody else. LOL BTW, even Joe Sixpack knows better.

To your questions: These are somewhat interesting. Let's look at them one at a time or else each post in reply is gonna get longer and drawn out over many subjects.

You asked:

Some problems for you that are insurmountable(IMO)
1How did all those species, unique to only one tiny spot on the globe get where they are?

This is an interesting question since both evolutionists and creationists may have to answer the same question.

I really don't see how this is insurmountable for creation but not for evolution. If all species, according to evolution, can be traced back in time to a single ancestor, then how did all those species travel from one spot on the globe to where they are today?

Isn't this simply a logistical problem that faces the creationist and evolutionist alike?

Plate tectonics is a big part of the answer. Farmerman will be able to give you a great answer I am sure. In the meantime there is a super animation of the breakup of the sub-continent Gondwana that you can look at.

Neologist,

Yes it's true. CI has told us several times that most of his family and friends are:

a) smarter than he is

b) and they are Christians too.

Honest. Intrepid will back me up on this.

Uh oh c.i.. You walked into that one. That'll teach you not to clutter up the evolution thread with all that Bible talk.

You didn't ignore this one

LMBO! You just can't help yourself can you? Now, it's ludicrous, You can't say the same thing without using these words?

You could have just said you believed they were unworkable and that would have been clear, concise, and courteous.

You appear to want to drag the post off topic. Why? My personal qualities have no bearing in whether the non-scientific methods you use to determine matters of fact are workable.

Brandon9000,

No, I don't want to drag it off topic. I am sorry if it appeared that way. I was just asking why you felt you need to use those words. Just puzzled by it, that's all.

In my opinion, the only way to learn the structure of the universe is by observation, experiment, and logic, and I don't think you're going to end up with God that way.
