Anyway, I find myself having the same sorts of questions I had about Dr. A's skulls. The supposed evolutionary sequence is just too pat, too "just so" to be realistic. You're complaining that the evidence is too good?
Where are the "errors," or at least the deviations from the too-too perfect path from the reptilian to the mammalian adaptation? Well, I could show you lots of fossils of things that don't have any surviving descendants. Look, here's one.
It's called a Spinosaurus, it's a complete dead end. No mammals, no birds, and indeed nothing at all now living is descended from it. Happy now?
Doesn't evolution ever make mistakes? But of course you'll say it does, all the time, and yet this sort of perfect sequence is what you give for evidence. That, Faith, is because if I want to demonstrate a reptile-to-mammal transition or ape-to-human transition, I'm not going to throw in the Spinosaurus, which is not part of that transition and so does not demonstrate it.
How did we get this neat progression of skulls from small cranial capacity to large human cranial capacity with such plausible morphological gradations from one to another of the skulls? Because humans evolved from apes.
How did we get this neat progression of types of middle ear bones as described by Mr. Hertzler, in what sounds like a similarly smooth gradation from one type to another, each perfectly fitted to its reptilian or reptilian-mammalian or mammalian host? Because mammals evolved from reptiles.
Dates. Sure seems open-and-shut when you've got each skull dated, each example of reptilian or mammalian ear bones dated, and they all so nicely follow one from another just as evolution says they should. It's the dating of the specimens that seals the deal, right, so unless one wants to accuse all researchers in the area of outright fraud the dates have to be accepted don't they? How can one answer that? First, I'm not accusing anyone of fraud, but there is certainly something odd about how this all fits together that ought not to be taken at face value. Again, you're complaining that the evidence is too good. You could say that of pretty much anything that's true. "You tell me trees exist, and then you claim to 'prove' it by showing me thousands of trees. Doesn't it strike you as suspicious that there's so many of them? That I can not just see them, but actually touch them? Doesn't it all seem a bit too convenient?" So, what should it look like if there were trees? And what would it look like if evolutionists were right? Wouldn't there be intermediate forms --- such as we find? Wouldn't the dates roughly show the more basal forms to be earlier --- like they do? --- Your crap about genetics has been exposed and ridiculed on other threads. If you want to do this again, bump one of those threads, don't do it here. Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.
