okay, I am a major evolution advocate and have argued with many delusional religious freaks. but some times pawnkeeper and wraithleader made sense.

once again I am an evolutionist,so I also disagree with some things they said though.

look at it all with an unbiased mind and maybe 45% of what they said held water

You'll have to remind me of one thing that pawnkeeper said that was not nonsense.

How about the fact that all living things reproduce after there own kind. They don't reproduce something else, fact.

pawnkeeper, watch the video in #1365 before insulting this forum any more with your indolence.

Good idea but that's not going to happen. Science deniers deny basic scientific facts because they go way out of their way to know nothing.

Since this person is getting to be more and more bizarre, and since he has repeatedly shown he is not interested in learning anything, and since he threatens the existence of your thread with his violations of the rule against having any religious fantasies here, I respectfully suggest he should be blocked.Yes, block the truth, wouldn't want you to know that evolution doesn't exist. Everything does not have a common existence. Everything reproduces its own kind.

No it is not a fact. It is wrong.

There are many many things wrong with your statement, but we can get over with it easiest like this - here is a random example of a hybrid.

A rare, hybrid animal that is part goat and part sheep has been born on a farm in the Republic of Ireland.

The animal, referred to as a geep, was born about two weeks ago on Paddy Murphy's farm in County Kildare.

The unexpected arrival is thought to be the result of mating between a goat and one of the sheep farmer's Cheviot ewes.

Mr Murphy said the cross-breeding was not intentional. He described it as a "pure shock to the system" and said it would be a "one-off" event on his farm.

"I've never seem anything like him before," he told the Irish Farmers Journal, adding that his family had been involved in sheep farming for "generations".

Here's a photo of another cute little geep, which was not reproduced as her kind

Huh? Can you give an example?

To me it seems about 0% held water :)

There have been arguments in favor of archaic human admixture with modern humans through interbreeding of modern humans with Neanderthals,Denisovans, and/or possibly other archaic humansover the course of human history. Neanderthal-derived DNA accounts for an estimated 1–4% of the Eurasian genome, but it is significantly absent or uncommon in the genome of most Sub-Saharan African people. In Oceanian and Southeast Asian populations, there is a relative increase of Denisovan-derived DNA. An estimated 4–6% of theMelanesian genome is derived from Denisovans. Recent noncomparative DNA analyses—as no specimens have been discovered—suggest that African populations have a genetic contribution from a now-extinct archaic African hominin population.

well, there is the whole hybrid thing. a hybrid isn't a whole new species.things only do produce their own kind.(I  hope. otherwise I and my girlfriend could have a baby iguana) 

Avatar of rouge_9

wait...that might be all right...are baby iguana's cute?Â
