What is your Ph.D. in? Rhetoric? Your concluding slide is in error. Darwinian evolution absolutely does predict a common ancestor and the evidence for it is in the fossil records, our current gene pool, and vestigial organs. The laws of physics aren't random, yet you imply that they are: molecules aren't just a bunch of legos being placed together randomly, they aren't just bumping about randomly (electrons seek out protons, for example).

This is interesting.

"Existence was created by god, god does not exist" My statements are unintelligent? You go against your own word and dare to make non scientific statements, you cannot disprove god, there is no logic behind your beliefs and reasoning, no rational though, just irrational behavior by one who denies god and accepts nothing.

[davidfsnyder]

@kingseho God does not exist. The earth exists. Existence was created by God. So how could God exist? You have no experience with what you're talking about, do you? You just think about it, you don't actually go where the road leads, otherwise you wouldn't be making these unintelligent statements. But hey, that road is very narrow and almost everybody falls off, so I don't blame you for falling short. Try again.

@kingseho This is kinda delirious, kid. Stay off the 'shrooms!

[davidfsnyder]

@kingseho OK, everything leads to God (whatever that means). But you choose to go through His/Her lower intestine, the sewer system. Why, kingzero, why?

[davidfsnyder]

@kingseho (or, is it King Zero?) Seriously, why do you insist on ignoring physical evidence and believing a fantasy concocted by your thinking process that doesn't match with the physical record? Please clarify. I never said "everything came by chance," neither did Darwin, if you actually read what he wrote. The point is that evolution does happen, you just have to take the time to look. Or are you a skeptic? Everything, including your rant, is b.s.? OK, that's fine.

[davidfsnyder]

@kingseho Hold on podner, I never said you were a Christian (read again). Your powers of observation aren't very good, neither is your logic, and yet you have the audacity to pronounce that evolution is impossible.

[kingseho]

@davidfsnyder Only idiots call others idiots? By which logic is this true? Christians do not call others idiots? Who said i was christian? You're clearly misguided and uneducated, allow yourself to think before responding.

[davidfsnyder]

@alianchild it is extremely sad. It's proof that evolution is a slow process. I wonder if this mindset is more common in the strain of homo sapiens that comingled with the Neanderthals? It's so weird that they take words from one book, edited by people 1900 years ago and who were not present at the events they reported (and you know how inaccurate eyewitness testimony is), and yet they cannot accept the evidence of their own sense perception. And they're willing to kill for their belief!!!

[davidfsnyder]

@kingseho Am I insulted being called an idiot by an idiot? No, only idiots call other people idiots, not Christians, not people who know God personally.
