"Theory of Evolution does not stand up to scientific scrutiny."

[ohmi]

Some scientific findings which perhaps question the current theories of human evolution? :-

It only mentions that Darwin's Theory of Evolution does not stand up to scientific scrutiny.

Nothing about anything current that is known about evolution.

A good comparison for you:

Darwin's Theory of Evolution is like the Wright brothers airplane, a very noble start, but further thought and examination has man going past the speed of sound. Imagine that!

You do realise this is your 666'th post right?

The Fallen Appendage clearly deceived you with his macaroni lies!

(you should stop posting else my post wont make any more sense :()

Some scientific findings...I suppose you mean: Some sciencefictional props...?

I like the bit where they say that Homo habilis is pre human. Funny I thought the homo part of that species name meant human.

Other than that I think those guys are eating way too many magic mushrooms.

However I would like to congradulate you Ohmi for refraining from your normal argument by aphorism style.

This is so cute. :D :D "Theory of Evolution does not stand up to scientific scrutiny" because it can not be reconciled with the Ramayana.

I guess the Ramayana is the ultimate source of all scientific "truth".

the guy who presented the non-scientific website in defense of his argument! :eek:

[Szkeptik]

Reading articles like the one linked in the OP makes me realise how much more intelligent I am than so many other people. And that's a very nice feeling :)

They're just confused, that's all. Probably don't like it because the word homo is in there. When people used to call me a homo, I thought they meant human until I realised they were having some kind of fantasy about me.:huh:

one time I called a guy a homo sapien and he got so offended that he tried to hit me with his purse. >:D<

Belief in creationism is like belief in peter pan, the reality of those who have such beliefs is way way different to what's painted on the children's books.

No disrespect to the King of Pop, btw.

The "Forbidden Archaeology" part takes it too far! :rolling:

Unless it's supposed to mean something. :eek:

In other news, supporters of Intelligent Design, Lamarckism, and the Aquatic Ape Theory are claiming their ideas are being suppressed by the scientific community...

In the recent past, miners in South Africa dug up metal spheres that are approximately an inch in diameter. Two types of spheres have been found; one is solid bluish metal with flecks of white and the other is hollowed out containing white spongy material inside. The photograph above is the metal one that has three parallel grooves running around its equator. The rocks they where found in date back 2.8 billion years. The fossilized human handprint shown below was found in limestone that is estimated to be 110 million years old.


In 1913, a German scientist, Hans Reck, found at Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania, a complete anatomically modern human skeleton in strata over 1 million years old, inspiring decades of controversy." More evidence like this has been found throughout the globe, providing scientific proof that man has been on this earth for a very-very long time, further showing that Darwin's Theory of Evolution does not stand up to scientific scrutiny.

Didn't Darwin just make all that theory stuff up as stories to scare his grandchildren with as he really believed that two giant apes created the universe by flinging poo at each other after smoking dried banana peels?

Nope, not at all. :wave:

That would explain why he went from being a potential minister and theologian and ended his days distinctly agnostic, if not border line atheist. I mean apes flinging poo! That's no way to start a Universe?!

Ironically enough his education had nothing to do with his religious beliefs, he became distinctly unenthusiastic for religion after the deaths of people close to him.

Everyone knows the land bridge in the Palk Straight was built by an army of monkeys (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanara). I don't see how this contradicts the theory of evolution.

[lunachick]

I prefer Baghwan Sri Rajneesh's approach. He wanted to get rich and he asked his followers to give him cadillac's and ranches and all he had to tell them was to do what they want, whatever man, it's all cool.

But these modern smarmy Swami's seem to have picked up on the Jesus Loves Kent Hovind approach to extracting dosh from dolts. Honestly, it's like no one has an imagination anymore! :(

So you are saying Darwin didn't smoke banana peels?

I was going to say the apes masturbated, but thpought "fling poo" was cuter.

On a thread lomg ago some guy said that God vibrated over the waters for like a hundred billion eons or something like that, and since there had to be more than one elohim, I figure it had to be two giant apes.

[GenesisNemesis]

So you are saying Darwin didn't smoke banana peels?

Are you into prosperity theology, by any chance?

It's a bit refreshing to take a break from the usual Christian-based creationist mumbo jumbo and see some from a different religious perspective.

I like how there are absolutely no references for any of the claims made on this page. No way to look them up and see if there is anything to them.

One can always google! :) The land bridge mentioned on that site turns out be only 3500 years after carbon dating.

I didn't bother to check out the other claims.

Don't worry, I'm noy a Christian by any measure, but I will say I don't believe in evolution, or think that it has any merit. I pretty much say the same thing about God. Maybe someday I'll actually start a thread about something or other that may or may not be relevant to IIDB, rather than waste bandwidth and peoples time.

[ImaAtheistNow]

... I will say I don't believe in evolution, or think that it has any merit.

There apparently is something that prevents you from accepting evolution. How about starting a new thread about your #1 concern about evolution?

It's not quite that simple. I have been registered on this board for quite sometime but rarely cared to post don't even really know why I have been. Before that, I mainly lurked here for probably four years IIRC. I've actually read just about every post that could be read, as far as EoG, BC&H, E/C and good old GRD are concerned.

[GenesisNemesis]

Just click "new thread". :D

[Underseer]

Looks like just another drive by posting. It would be nice if one of these goobers stuck around to actually debate the issues they raised. Perhaps he assumes that the arguments in the article he linked to are so flawless that no discussion is required. People will just read his link and instantly abandon science in favor of magic.

[Exciter]

and then what? I'll have to really think about it. If I do, it's not like I'm going to be trying to tear down evolution. I understand the concept, but otoh, I also understand the concept of the various levels of Christianity as well.

It's not like you are going to be clubbed to death by the atheist crowd or condemned to hell by the YECs for positing a discussion subject in a chat room.

Besides you may be surprised. You may find that many agree with you. A new viewpoint would be welcomed. And BTW, not all Christians reject evolution. The largest Christian church, the Catholic, accepts evolution as real.

Personally I have no problem with evolution = (random mutation + x) + (natural selection + x) where (x = 0 to ?) if the x just remains unknown untill something can be demonstrated.

It may have not withstood superstitious scrutiny, but it has withstood scientific scrutiny for nearly 150 years.
