@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 12) For someone who claims evolution throws out facts in order to make itself true, you sure do whole lot of it yourself. I'm not a blind follower, I believe what I see as logical from my observations of the world. I am going to believe a tested theory a long time before I go against logic and reason because of what a story in a book says.

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 11) Earth, levels are actually decreasing since the only regular source of C-14 is the sun. The recent fluctuation of C-14 is just due to nuclear testing since the mid 1940s; this doesn't matter though since the C-14 level used is from before then. You also didn't address the existence of dinosaurs and other prehistoric fossils, unless if you wanna tell me those are a thousand years old. (continued 12)...

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 10) populations are obviously kept in check for the most part. In your radiocarbon dating argument you state that this method can only date back to around 100,000 years, but isn't that more than enough to disprove the creationist belief of the earth being around 5,000 years old? Also C-14 levels over time are not assumed to be constant during dating, and the level fluctuation is well accounted for. You were incorrect too about C-14 levels increasing on (continued 11)...

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 9) Your population argument is flawed in that it assumes current rates of population increase have been occurring since man first came into existence. Human death rate used to be much higher than it is today, the population boom you currently observe is merely a product of the creation of civilization, farming and modern medicine. Other than that we would have a similar population increase percentage to just about any other animal, most of who's (continued 10)...

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 8) in which the Earth's magnetic poles switch; coincidentally this has been observed to occur every 10,000 years from magnetic alignment in rock samples. (continued 9)...

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 7) I personally believe in an opposing theory in which the universe is continually contracting and expanding without a beginning or end. Beyond that I don't see what astrophysics has to do with evolution so I'll move on. Magnetic field intensity is not a reliable method of dating the earth, nor do I even think the quotes you used for that point are in context. It sounds like that article is actually referring to geomagnetic reversal, a phenomenon (continued 8)...

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 6) an extremely antibiotic resistant strain of bacteria. Though if direct observation is necessary for your belief in something, why defend creationism when its only proof is from a 2,000 year old book written by men who knew nothing of modern science? It seems like your argument about that is very hypocritical. As far as your views on the big bang I will not argue with you, mainly because the big bang is slowly starting to become an unpopular theory. (continued 7)...

[Hankus18]

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 5) theory, but once again incorrect regarding evolution not being based on observations. A common example is the observation of cultures of bacteria being subjected to and becoming resistant to antibiotics. As small amounts of antibiotics are introduced to a population of bacteria, only the most resistant are left to reproduce. As the procedure is repeated on the same population after having time to repopulate the same thing occurs, eventually creating (continued 6)...

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 4) It's actually interesting you brought up the work of Ernst Haeckel as he is the scientist who started the study of this, called evolutionary development. As you stated, one of the main proofs of this is the incredible resemblance many animal embryos have with each other. However you are incorrect about his tampering with his samples, the same occurrence has been observed many times by many other scientists. You are correct in your explanation of a (continued 5)...

@MrDEEPTRUE ...(continued 3) language and minds developed through this socialization as now for the first time social factors were playing more of a part in our likelihood to reproduce than predators or finding food. This is also the reason why human adolescence is so long; because of this lack of predators through protection from our early societies, our development to sexual maturity was able to take longer without a large decrease in our likelihood of reproducing.
