  • or maybe He knows all things and you are stupid?

  • ok, I've actually been studying woodpeckers for a project at university and I did not come across this kind of anatomy, but the tongue of most woodpeckers is stored curled around the skull. It doubles back on itself and exit's via the beak, allowing it to be extended far out when required. In some cases the tongue goes right between up to the front between the bird's eyes before it loops back. Is it really such a mutation that the tongue just goes straight into the beak without looping?

  • @ItzCashew Yeah but if a tongue that loops around the head is to have evolved to that point, somewhere down the line that tongue would have been unusable and the bird would have starved to death. It could not have evolved behind the head looping around without making the bid unable to eat. Plus, if you want to see Jesus, let me know, I will show you what you can do to literally have Him revealed to you within a few weeks max. No church, one on one. peace.

  • "they need to put their brains back in there." really? Now I'm not a brain surgeon but I'm not sure thats how trauma surgery works...

  • @Hazzycakes He did turn water into wine. So clearly if you think he made this while he was intoxicated image when he is sober. Lord Jesus is wonderful. God bless Hazzycakes.

  • @MrJivemad Well, this is coming from evolution theory QUOTE " Evolution on mutation, no.” In the last analysis, mutations really don’t help evolutionary theory at all." So your theory is still wrong. This is coming from neo-Darwinian theory. Mutation makes the animals weak not stronger. So are you not seeing this man theory. God is wonderful to us and he Loves you. Jesus is our creator. God bless you! =)

  • You know the same reason this guy was saying that god gave the woodpecker is also evidence that evolution over time made the woodpecker "equipment" stronger and stronger.

  • Can't this guy see how mutation drives evolution or does he prefer not to see this

  • OMG how messed up is this guy? what's to say we don't know the answers yet heck last century we thought the earth was flat and the centre of the universe. someone below put it they had off spring that developed ways to deal with it take todays kids they now more about a computer than a adult that has been around for forty years it's bred into them evolution dumass
