Evolution didn't happen

No, I just don't see the point in beating a dead debate

The eye can distinguish among seven million colors. It has automatic focusing and handles an astounding 1.5 million messages simultaneously. Evolution focuses on mutations and changes from and within existing organisms. Yet evolution alone does not fully explain the initial source of the eye or the brain the start of living organisms from nonliving matter.

That's pretty big of you. Admitting when you're wrong and proven wrong.

How am I wrong when I have been with the evolution argument saying that evolution didn't happen?

Thats okay that you think its total bullshit. Its your opinion. I have my own.

I dont think Religion all together is dismissed as one big lie.

And...

Pongo, Religion is one big lie, If the people in the video seemed intelligent to you then you are done for.

They believe what they are saying cause the people have been brainwashed through decades of indoctrination by the cathols.

I guess sometimes you just dont get it.

Are you trying to say that only non-intelligent people can become brainwashed?  There are many highly intelligent theists out there.  Do not underestimate your opponent.

This is a classic example.  Whenever someone brings up the eye as proof against evolution, you can immediately infer that they have little or no understanding of the theory of evolution, regardless of what they claim.  It's also abundantly clear that you copy/pasted that statement, most likely from a christian propaganda website.  If I were to google the sentence, "The eye can distinguish among seven million colors. It has automatic focusing and handles an astounding 1.5 million messages simultaneously," would I get any hits?  Back to the point though, the eye has been proven, countless times, to have evolved.  There are current living species in every single stage of the eye's development.  The mountains of proof for the development of the eye is only hidden from your view by the lack of will to learn about it.  Evolution alone does fully explain the eye and the brain.

Your statement -- or who ever you copy/pasted it from -- that evolution does not explain the start of living organisms from nonliving matter is completely true.  But it's like saying that calculus does not explain the pythagorean theorem.  While still true, it makes the speaker look ill-imed on the topic they are trying to debate.  So, please stop saying you've done "a lot" of study on evolution, with each passing post it becomes more and more apparent that you in fact have not.

I wasnt using the "eye" as proof, only as an example. Just to get the brain juices flowing. Dont take it so personal.

Evolution excists.

As someone said here already humans got 94% the same DNA as chimps. Also scientists have discovered corpse remains of .. "less developed" human-monkey-things. And the reason why only humans wear clothes is that human is the only intelligent enough creature on earth at the moment to be able to use the recourses given to produce something like clothing.

I really hope that whoever arguing here about evolution being false, is not serious.
Personally I find it harder to belive that a great wizard created humans. Rofl.

If evolution happened we would see much more redundancy in the animal kingdom. We would see many animals that shared most of their DNA and only had a few differences. On top of this we would see redundant systems in animals, perhaps several organs performing the same function. Humans have no such organs, even the appendix does the job of fighting off bacteria.

If humans evolved from primates wouldn't we see many different kind of monkeys instead of just apes?

Finally, fish do not crawl out of water, there is obviously no fish that can breath air, maybe a "lung fish."

"If humans evolved from primates wouldn't we see many different kind of monkeys instead of just apes?"

Don't we allready see many different kinds of apes/monkeys? Yes we do.
And after all, I dont believe it's possible to find every "missing link" in evolution, and it will allways be many unanswered questions regarding evolution.
