not even human designers behave in this fashion. it
like asking Mitubishi to coem up with a car with six
tires, because Ford has 4, so it can be easy to
differentiate one Automaker from the other.


Tin: Designers don't make objects that fit into objective nested
hierarchies.


Of course not, this would make the designer use evolution as a tool.
It is not.

Good designers don't put things in backwards like the
eye, or make homocidal maniacs like male lions.


Why? because you say so? the human eye works, does it not?
a designer would design something that works.
As for the Lions, you are the first person I've encountered, that
has ascribe
a moral issue with an another creature.

Sure YOUR all
powerful designer could be different. But you all powerful designer
could do or be anything, making it a scientifically worthless idea.


why?

So really it seems you have two choices. Reject ID because it
doesn't fit the evidence or reject ID because it isn't testable. To
the extend it's testable it doesn't fit, to the extent that it isn't
testable it isn't science.


but ...but .... evolution as the origin of man is not testable at all.
di you ever heard of the Manpanzee project?

====================================
Jabberhole has been on this SAME manpanzee subject for years. As a
Jehovah's Witness he isn't allowed to believe in evolution and must cling
hopelessly to the creation myth. If you think you can reason with a
fanatic you're wasting your time. He uses this same tired old
manpanzee/evolution/creation argument as it's the only way he can get
attention and replies to his posts.

1. A car is organic (molecular structure based in carbon).
True or false?
2. Not counting living things, the universe is, in part, organic.
True or false?
3. This universe is the only example of a universe that we know of for
sure. True/false?
4. We know for a fact that humans create cars, as can been seen from a
tour of any auto manufacturing plant.
True or false?
5. We have no known-for-a-fact examples of gods creating universes.
True or false?
6. If we know humans create cars, but we do not know that gods create
universes, trying to pretend that finding a car abandoned in the
desert leaves one in the same position, vis-a-vis its origins, as we
are in trying to understand the universe is an irredeemably braindead
proposition.
True or false?
7. In a thread started in alt.religion.jehovahs-witn on Sept 21,2003
you stated: "On the other hand, if the Genesis creation account is
factual, then the fossil record would not show one type of life
turning into another. It would reflect the Genesis statement that
each different type of living thing would reproduce only "according to
its kind." (Genesis 1:11, 12, 21, 24, 25) Also, if living things came
into being by an act of creation, there would be no partial,
unfinished bones or organs in the fossil record. All fossils would be
complete and highly complex, as living things are today."
(http://tinyurl.com/u62b)
That thread was titled "TOBS: The Fossil record support's Genesis".
Posting such an article and/or believing we were created rather than
evolved is an open admission that you are in fact, a creationist.
True or false?
8. Regardless of what it is classed as and regardless of whether it
was or was not in the evolutionary line to birds, the archaeopteryx
had pretty much a fifty-fifty mix of reptile/dino and bird features
and therefore represents an example of a potential intermediate stage.
True or false?
9. The okapi, an animal alive and well today, is pretty much what a
transitional giraffe could have looked like.
True or false?
10. http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-transitional.html summarises
discoveries pertaining to transitional fossils and contains over 70
references, many of which are to papers published in peer-reviewed
science journals.
True or false?
11. Something akin to a mouse could reasonably change 300 genes over
60 million years to become either human or a modern mouse.
True or false?
12. It is possible to clearly and scientifically define the Biblical
"kind" as used in the Noah's ark story in Genesis.
True or false?
13. There is a mechanism in genetics or biochemistry which prevents
one "kind" of organism varying into another "kind".
True or false?
14. Evolutionists hold that modern amphibians evolved from modern
fish.
True or false?
15. Evolutionists hold that modern reptiles evolved from modern
amphibians.
True or false?
16. Evolutionists hold that modern birds evolved from modern
reptiles.
True or false?
17. Evolutionists hold that modern mammals evolved from modern
reptiles.
True or false?
18. Creationist letters published as a joke in a science publication
are of the same standing as peer-reviewed papers published in
recognized science journals.
True or false?
19. There has been at least one peer-reviewed science paper published
in a recognized, refereed science journal that calls the Theory of
Evolution into serious question.
True or false?
20. There has been at least one peer-reviewed science paper published
in a recognized, refereed science journal that establishes a better
theory to explain the distribution and variety of life on Earth today
than the Theory of Evolution.
True or false?
21. There has been posted, in one place in a thread somewhere in
these news groups, a supported and referenced *list* of the colossal
holes in the Theory of Evolution.
True or false?
22. It is hypocritical to demand peer-reviewed published evidence
from others in refutation of non-existent material favoring your own
arguments.
True or false?
23. References to long-dead dead topics such as "Piltdown man",
Nebraska "man", and Ramapithecus as a human ancestor are irrelevant to
the current state of the Theory of Evolution because no one but
creationists ever makes an issue of them any more.
True or false?
24. Certain creationists-in-denial will snip or ignore this entire
post because they cannot even handle a series of simple true/false
questions without realizing what a ***** they are.
True or false?
The last question is a little more difficult. It's multiple choice.
25. The match between human DNA and banana DNA is:
A. 95%
B. 75%
C. 60%
D. Greater than 50%
E. 50%
Please *support* your answer with at least one competent and
intelligent reference that does not refer to a non-existent article in
_New Scientist_, is not a throw-away quotation, and is not merely a
headline from an article that has nothing otherwise to do with the
topic.
There will be more questions added to this growing list when a
reasonable amount of time passes and you predictably fail to address
them in the original threads.

It is a theory of our origins based on the evidence. The evidence is
there for all to see. And the mechanisms of natural selection, sexual
selection and genetic drift can be tested and so can the frequency of
mutations.

And for all to come to their own conclusions, depending on reviewing
the evidence, what group the evidence is an advocate for, and who is

acceptence yes. Concrete fact no. And no all scientist agree. Those

Are you sure. Almost one thousands American service men and women,
have lost thier lives based on evidence, that there was WMD in Iraq.
The evidence was at the time, a well known fact based on very procse
investigation. or so we were told. And you know the rest... There is
no WND in Iraq. But there is Oil.
Cocnclusion based on evidence is based, on who is looking at it.
the same goes for any science theory.

Of course, as we know, there was no evidence and the Administration lied
to us.

There is no club. No theory is sacred. Any scientist is free to
present a scientific case to show that the theory of evolution is
false. If successful they would get a Nobel Prize. None has come near.

What's that got to do with the theory of evolution?

The evidence was at the time, a well known fact based on very procse
investigation.

It was nowhere near the sort of evidence that would be required for a
scientific theory like the theory of evolution. There is overwhelming
evidence right across the scientific disciplines and spanning over 100
years.

or so we were told. And you know the rest... There is no WND in Iraq.
But there is Oil. Cocnclusion based on evidence is based, on who
is looking at it. the same goes for any science theory.

A scientific theory is an explanation of what is observed in the
natural (objective) world. The best theory is the one that explains
the most observed facts and can be tested and can make predictions.
The theory of evolution does all that. No other theory comes near.

The main problem arises when they try to make out that creationism is
scientific. That's when all the lies start. If they just let it remain
a religious belief they can get away with almost anything. There is
nothing to stop a 'flat earth' religious doctrine being propogated as
long as no-one tries to pretend it is scientific.

Is bad design? can you function if you eat a few oranges.
and what is wrong with male nipples?

a designer would design something that works.


Like your nipples? Or your appendix?

nipples are sweat organs.
the appendix is Rich in infection-fighting lymphoid cells.
note the following from a none creationist site.
http://www.sciam.com/askexpert_question.cfm?articleID=000CAE56-7201-1C71-9EB7809EC588F2D7
seems to me that the appendicx and male nipples works just fine.


You know you may have point. Ley me ask you this. How does Stop-Leak
seal the radiator of a car.

As for the Lions, you are the first person I've encountered, that
has ascribe a moral issue with an another creature.


An instict for killing the young of your own kind is good design?


of course. ever heard of capital punishment?


Sure YOUR all
powerful designer could be different. But you all powerful designer
could do or be anything, making it a scientifically worthless idea.


why?


Omnipotence does not need to be scientific.



so says a creationist. I am not a creationist, I don't belive in hocus
pocus magic.


So really it seems you have two choices. Reject ID because it
doesn't fit the evidence or reject ID because it isn't testable. To
the extend it's testable it doesn't fit, to the extent that it isn't
testable it isn't science.


but ...but .... evolution as the origin of man is not testable at all.


Of course it is nitwit! Your chromosome patterns match that of a
chimpanzee to 98%.


ok then there should be no problem in producing a human chimp hybrid
known as the manpanzee.


I wish you guys would stop suggesting that. If you have even three brain
cells working you know some clown somewhere is going to do it.

then he will be famous, and the Bible will be dumped in every
trashcan in the world eh?

oh and by the way, Human has a 50% chromosme match with a banana, I
guess that makes you the decendant of a fruit.

Men and apes share far too many characteristics for
it to be mere shared design. Unless you want to argue that God screwed
up the same way with multiple seperate creations.

Bad design. Like the way your guts are hung from your spine for
instance.

Boeing make Airplane, so does WhipAire who
manufacture cessna airplane. Do you their engineers screww up because
one can fly a bit faster than another?

But Boeing did screw up making a latch mechanism for their 747cargo
bay doors that didn't stay closed in flight reliablty. And so did
Douglas with the DC10. But neither of them carried the same bad
design over into their next model. Your intelligent designer
apparently isn't that smart.

Not to mention that evolution in animals is directly observable. Darwin
*saw* evolution occuring in the Galapagos, and anyone on this planet can go
there and see exactly what he saw. Scientists still observe the bird
populations that were among those that led to his theories, and you can
watch those populations evolve in perfect harmony with said theories. It
observable and testable.

Yes I can ever forget How darwin saw an iguana evolved over time int a
finch.
the problem is with your comment Birds remain birds.
Humand much more better at adapting to their enviroment. Bus as for
evolution as the origin of man, this can even be proven with the
scientific method.

One wet drought cycle seems to be enough to push one bird population from
having mostly birds with larg beaks to mostly birds with small beaks and
back again in a few years time.
To be honest men act like apes, they smell like apes, they eat the same

Per science men are still clasified as apes. You give a classic

"...we have a prior commitment, a commitment to
materialism. It is not that the methods and
institutions of science somehow compel us to accept
a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but,
on the contrary, that we are forced by our 'a priori'
adherence to material causes to create a set of
concepts that produce material explanations, no matter
how counter-intuitive, no matter how mystifying to the
uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is an
absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the

Which is, of course, evolution. All evolution is an accumulation of one on
more "microevolutionary" steps.

lol, if you honestly want me to explain to you the application of science
then I'm afraid I'll need a significant downpayment and you'll be forced to
buy a few elemntary level textbooks to start. There simply isn't enough time

It's called argument by analogy. "Since we see xyz in these species, and
since we see that same effect in all other species, then it is reasonable to
assume xyz also in humans." It's rather an obvious inference.

As an evolutionary biologist and a teacher, I have to allow that if all we
had was Darwin's Finches, an argument by analogy infering an evolutionary
relationship between man and ape would not be a very scientific inference,
but I think Dave knows that, which is why he tried to pretend that it *is*
all we have. Of course, there's much more to it than that, and Dave knows
it.

Dave, theories about the creation of the Universe do not say that "nothing
