quote: Well, how are we to judge if someone is a scientist, or even a competant scientist? Is he a scientist "like all the others"? Or, has he given up science for religion, yet is trying to maintain a veneer of rationality?

quote: Jesus is alive? Can he come over to my house for dinner? That would be cool. And, you know, I would expect someone born nearly 200 years ago to be dead. How many 200 year old people do you know?
quote: Me.
quote: What's the difference?
quote: Evolution involves random (chance) mutation combined with natural selection. Selection is the opposite of chance.
quote: What's that?
quote: OK.
quote: All three what? The things you list are concepts or philosophies. They cannot "believe" anything. People "believe" things.
quote: They do? How so? Please give examples.
quote: Check out this webpage. It is a nice synopsis of the evidence for human evolution. Please come back here after you have read it and let us know if you have any further questions. Fossil Hominids: the evidence for human evolution Oh, and if humans have not evolved, then do you suggest that we are all clones of each other?
quote: I am not familiar with this one. Do you have a link to more information,. preferably with references to the professional scientific literature?
quote: Both of these hoaxes were discovered very quickly by scientists.
quote: You are mistaken. From the above webpage is the following information about Peking Man: Creationist Arguments: Peking Man
quote: Do you think that a source from almost fifty years ago might be kind of out of date, and that paleontology might have progressed a bit since then? Anyway, there are many neanderthal fossils, read about them here: Prominent Hominid Fossils
quote: Why don't you read the webpage and then tell us what the difference is?
quote: No, actually that is a major misconception. Modern humans and modern apes share a common ancestor.
quote: A reference to the papers where these results were published, please.
quote: A reference to the information, please.
quote: Reference to the source material for this claim, please.
quote: Where? When, Who? Reference?
quote: I don't know. What do physicists say?

quote: Not if she wants to be a Biologist. Or a Population Genetecist. Wouldn't it be better if they actually learned all about the Theory of Evolution so they could understand it, unlike you?

quote: Are you a clone of your parents? Then you are decended from them, and modified.
quote: There are. Every organism is a transitional form between it's parents and it's offspring, unless they are clones.
