Do you believe in Evolution?

[Liberated Counties]

There is no such thing as 'Evolution'.

Here are some examples of observed evolution. The changes are generally not major because we have not had very long to observe these animals.

Single-celled organisms evolving to multi-celled ones. This was under artificial selection pressure, but was a simple process that could easily happen outside the lab.
Bird wings shortening to avoid cars.
Allele frequency changing in moths for better camouflage on trees. Please note that this particular case did not involve genetic mutations.
Bacteria evolving many different features. The results are described on Wikipedia.
Elephants losing tusks to avoid poachers.
Fish developing a gene allowing them to survive a toxic river.
Lizards losing limbs in order to travel better on sand.
Other lizards evolving to give birth to live young, the better to incubate eggs (since they're kept warm in the body).
More lizards still rewiring their guts when placed in a new ecosystem.

Obviously is is teh lawd giving them these abilities because he is omnibenevolent

of course i am joking, i know what i'll be reading for the next half hour Science ftw

There is no such thing as 'Evolution'. God created us all. We never 'evolved' from apes.

The theme of us evlolving from apes is just absolutely absurd. Seriously guys, get real.

Firstly: Sir, please read: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=254663
Secondly: All humans are apes.
Humans (Homo sapiens) are primates of the family Hominidae (Great apes), and the only extant species of the genus Homo.

I'm not an ape.

All humans are apes.

We are not apes. We were created from dirt by God. This 'evolution' is absolute nonsense.

Some people believe in science. I believe in God. Unfortunately for you, God has gained the upper hand. We are humans, how can we possibly disagree with our Creator?

1. One does not believe in science. Science is not a belief system - it is a method of obtaining information.
2. Science should be the first thing one turns to. It shouldn't be the second thing in-case religion is insufficient.

You believe in God - who are you to disagree with his creation?

The Abrahamic god is certainly not our creator. That would be Jupiter, Greatest and Best.

We never did evolve from apes, we evolved from "Homo sapiens idaltu"

Wrong, wrong, wrong. There is no way we could have evolved, due to the fact that God created humans, so how did we change? It says it in most of the religious books that the world has.

for the hundred and first time, evolution doesn't say jack about us "coming from" apes
it does suggest however that we may have a common ancestor with something like them.
their line and ours both having evolved MANY itterations since then. tens or even hundrends of millions of years worth.

Yes, there were cavemen who had a slight difference in skull length, teeth alighnment etc. But if you are trying to say that we evolved from animals, you are wrong, my friend.

All those books are flawed.

A serious position, definitely worth engaging with.

Humans are animals. Modern humans. Were in the kingdom of Animalia.

Every theory even containing an animal is negative. God created Adam and Eve from dirt, and then they brought lots of babies, which then gave birth and so on.

Homo sapiens idaltu is an extinct subspecies of Homo sapiens that lived almost 160,000 years ago in Pleistocene Africa.

Of course! How else would my Dragonite have reached its current form?

Proof?

Not one bit. God created us, and that's about it.

I am human and I would disagree with whatever you would call a Creator, assuming it existed.

This is not true.

Stop with the wilful ignorance.

These records are too old to be affirmitive. If you can provide a religious source, it would be a bit more believable.
