Evolution Theorists have evidence, just not impractical evidence.
Their theory has probability, just not realistic probability.
They have fossil evidence, just not transitional fossils.
Any scientist who disagrees, can't actually be a real scientist.

Why do snakes and whales have pelvic bones?? Why do some pythons grow tiny legs?? Why do humans have a fused chromosome and extra centromere that matches the exact sequence of two chimpanzee chromosomes? (chimps have 24 pairs, we have 23) why can't we find endemic mammals on volcanic islands, and only on those islands that drifted away from a continent? Why do we share so much of our coded DNA with chimps and why do we have genes that don't work, but other mammals do (vitamin C gene)? why would God put a broken gene in our DNA and put the same broken gene in other species that are closely related to us??

So much evidence, so many fossils.. Look up archaeopteryx!
What did it have in common with birds and reptiles? Why does it fit so perfectly in the time line with where you would expect to find this?

You have to deny quite a bit if you really want to believe evolution isn't true.

There is no such thing as a “transitional fossil.” Since the process of evolution occurs through slight changes between parent and child, there are about as many “transitions” in the fossil record for one lineage as there would be generations. As soon as another fossil is found to bridge the gap between two species, people will demand for the “transitional fossil” to fill the smaller gap

Abanna
02/17/19 11:06 am

In addition, fossils are formed in very specific conditions where the skeletal structure remains intact, becomes preserved, and the organic material is replaced by minerals and other materials over time. Very few creatures will have undergone this procedure after death. It’s very impressive we even found so many fossils considering the rarity of the event at which they are formed.

Also self replicating molecules existed before life did, a hypothesis of abiogenesis called Clay hypothesis where Graham Cairns-smith speculates that primitive RNA could have been created by clay molecule since clay self replicates the same way RNA

I'm 99% sure that there isn't a god. I don't know how the first forms of RNA formed, but there are theories, hypotheses etc. that are convincing and have evidence supporting but not confirming them.

It was a fine read. My only concern is how dated the information cited is, and I'm not educated enough to say whether or not there have been discoveries that contradict the articles information. I don't understand how the second law makes it

impossible for organic self replicating molecules to form.

Well on this subject there really isn't a "truly know" sort of thing. A lot of it is speculation until there is enough evidence for it. The only possible way for life to form naturally, without divine intervention, is abiogenesis. How this happens is

happens is all desputable, but inorganic material came prior to organic material so a abiogenesis has occur. How it does as I stated is up in the air however. As to "truly knowing" I don't really view anything as truly known from a personal standing

My turn lol. 1. How can we have a firm "belief"? Belief is detrimental to science. Doubt creates advances and discovers new knowledge. 2. Any origin theory is going to be ridiculous, religious or otherwise, because we can't even define what...

...can't define what "living" constitutes. At what point does "self replicating" actually become alive and adopt a will and instincts? Speaking of which, I find it interesting how lightning creating life is incredulous yet a spoken word is not...

...crazy at all. A spoken word is so much more scientifically powerful than lightning after all. Also lightning is hardly the only theory(some are quite entertaining). Either way, evolution theory and origins theory are different.

I did not say we evolved from chimps lol. From what I understand the prevailing theory is that chimps are brothers not ancestors. Humans and chimps came from a common ancestor. As to lightning, I don't pretend to understand how that could...

All that I have recently read about evolution is that we came from a common ancestor not chimps. Your info is outdated

A quick internet search will get you all you want. However, since you are too lazy to do this yourself, here is a starting point: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimpanzee%E2%80%93human_last_common_ancestor. Please remember I'm not a biologist.

You can't demand for me to show MY proof. I am merely paraphrasing what I've read. Go to the source and those who spend lifetimes researching this. Unlike you I don't pretend to be an expert in this area.

Your assuming I care enough to research it lol. My final point is the prevailing theory is we AND chimps came from a common ancestor. Is there proof? I neither know nor care. I'm not exactly 100% supporting this theory.
