Do I Have to Believe Evolution?

Well,For 116 years it graced the halls of the National Museum of Wales at Cardiff—the fossilised skeleton of a 200m[illion]-year-old predator that once cruised the Jurassic seas,” says Britain’s newspaper The Guardian. “Then curators at Cardiff decided the remains of the ocean-going carnivore ichthyosaurus needed a brush up—and realised that they had been taken in.” “When we stripped off five layers of paint we found it was an elaborate forgery,” said conservator Caroline Buttler. “It was an amalgam of two types of ichthyosaurus plus a clever attempt at fake parts.” Instead of disposing of it, the museum will put it on display as an example of a fake fossil.

Unless you are somehow accessing the Internet with an abacus, evolution is in evidence all around you. Perhaps one of the most valuable lessons to be learned from evolution is that the ability to acquire, assimilate and use timely information provides a distinct evolutionary advantage in ones ability to adapt to and prosper in an ever changing environment.

The Buble has held sway for thousands of years but is shown to be cr@p.

Time does not afford automatic veracity.

Elderman.. so you are prepared to admit that there were at least 2 dinosaurs to provide the parts for the fake??

[naomi24]

^^ That's exactly what I thought.

[RATTER15]

So Elderman, how old do you think these two halves are?
just a wild guess will be fine.

unless cupid really does look like a monkey then the statement stands.

Bishop Usher of Armagh calculated that the world was about 8000 years old. If he's correct then this entire evolution business is a nonsense.

Beso - what's the buble - Michael Buble or what?

"If", Sandy, "if" :-D

[Ankou]

"Sandy, Sandy, why-yi-yi-yi-yi Oh Sandy"

[jomifl]

Careful Sith. I suspect that in 20 years or so muslim scholars will discover that the prophet knew all about evolution as it is clearly described in the koran.(somewhere)

[Ankou]

some already do claim its in the koran, some don't. it depends which scholar your everyday muslim wants to believes as to which way they go.

[jomifl]

No helpful hints from on high?

[sith123]

i said you dont have to believe in it jomifl, i did not say i did not believe in it, im open to the posiblility. before trying to be funny, see what the person has wrote.

[jomifl]

^what who has wrote?

I find it amazing that anyone accepts the theory of evolution as fact when evolutionary “experts” themselves argue over how it is supposed to have happened. For example, would you accept arithmetic as a proved fact if some experts said that 2 plus 2 equals 4, while other experts said it was believed to total 3 or possibly 6? If the role of science is to accept only what can be proved, tested, and reproduced, then the theory that all life evolved from a common ancestor is not a scientific fact.

Jom, I think Sith means Elderman, who asked 'Do I have to believe in evolution?' :o)))
