The Fact of the Evolution (change) of Life on Earth

Separate from how life has evolved on Earth (which is explained by the theory of evolution -- ToE) is the fact that life has changed over time.Once upon a time (and we won't worry about the absolute value of that time -- that is for the dates and dating forum) there no multicellular creatures. Later there were some that we might tag as "primitive" but they bore hints of current groups but there were no fish, reptiles, mammals or birds.Later there were fish but no birds,reptiles or mammals.Finally there were representatives of all of todays major groups of living things. In addition, as we examine those that died more recently they look more like those extant today.Thus, over time, the forms of life changed. This is the fact of evolution.This has been discussed before, of course. But we have a few here now you haven't grasped the two basic sets of evidence which any idea about life on earth has to explain. This is one of the sets of evidence.The other is, of course, the actual age of the Earth and each part of it's geology.Since there are a number of discussions going on about some things which are, in comparison to these two points, I thought it would be useful to revisit this one.Anyone who wishes to disagree with evolution must first explain the series of changes that we observe in the forms of life on earth.This should go into Biological Evolution

I know this wasn't probily the reply you wanted, but it does link to your post.I don't disagree with evolution nor creatism, but if you wanted to prove creatism could you just simply head back far enough to find the being who created the first bacteria cell? (I won't go into too much detail, but..) Recently I've been coming to a realistion that how we think is mearly based upon chemicals and chain-reactions. Laughing / Crying can be put down to _possibily_ being the external action due to an internal action the brain is currently acting upon. Maybe fixing or destroying links. Im not trying to say it is, but could that be more creatism; we believe we're a conscience being where that is all but an illusion, acting upon experience from the past. Our eye-sight being the greating deception.-Just a thought, ignore this if it's totally off topic, but it's something I thought could be revelivent.

If you cant prove just one side, then why not try proving both?

It does appear to be totally off topic. I suggest that, next time, you consider that before posting.Btw,Welcome to EvC! I hope you have read over a number of threads to get an idea of how things are done here (to the degree that there is any consistency ).If you have any questions please post them in:
