DaVxOr:
After coming on so strong, you sure have wimped out.
Just an observation.

Re: what convinced me of evolution?
I think that DaVxOr is diappointed in the responses. If you read the initial post it is clear that DaVxOr wants to believe that people will only believe in evolution because either they have been brain washed as children to accept it or that they simply don't want to believe in God. But many people have responded indicating that they never had much discussion about it one way or another as children, and it was the evidence alone that convinced them. I, myself, was in the opposite situation: I tried very hard to not accept evolution, I tried very hard to deny it, but in the end I just couldn't. I think that DaVxOr is having a hard time believing that the evidence for evolution is so good that it alone can be persuasive.

What convinced me?
Hmm, facts maybe, DNA evidence, Fossils, they all played a part.

a point of order: "/" needs to be in front of "qs" for the tag to work.

My impression is that this topic has long strayed from it's theme, and in general has decended into trash-hood.
Closing it down. Go to the appropriate topic, of which the link is below, if you wish to justify it being reopened.
