Anyone who knows quantum theory knows it's impossible. Things go in leaps, theres no gradual move into another species. people who learn this evolution fairy tale in school hanve to unlearn it when they come to do quantum theory.
Wow, dude.
Someone has really been pulling your leg.

Evolutionists forget that matter is not purposeful.
No, we never forget that.
The genetic code could not have been built without a creator to apply meaning to that code. Lets say you put all the letters in the english language and jumble them about in a hat and eventually you get out the sequence CAT. We can say that has arisen by chance and it means pussy cat. The thing is, it doesn't. It means nothing. You tell that to a Chinese person and they won't understand. because they don't have the meaning. The reason we do is because we have applied that meaning to it. You don't think in a language, you think in a concept. And then put that concept, into a code that you have agreed on. Like cat means pussy etc. The code can't arise on it's own. So if you shook the genetic code about you wouldn't get anything out unless someone had applied meaning to that code so that it knows what to do when you put it in certain sequences.
The "genetic code" has no meaning.
Alot of evolution books state you could type on a keyboard randomly for eternity and eventually write a book. Well I doubt it
And yet it's mathematically certain.
To be precise: as the length of a randomly generated string of "letters" chosen from some finite "alphabet" tends to infinity, then the probability of any given finite substring appearing within this string tends to 1.
You don't explain what you think this has to do with evolution. Hint: nothing.
but IF that did happen, two things pose a problem. first of all, where are you gonna get the keyboard from and the meaningful letters from?
From the nearest metaphorical typewriter shop.
ALL the reactions in our bodie are REVERSIBLE.
Have you ever heard of something called the second law of thermodynamics?
If you put certain substances on your tongue you can die instantly. Why? because it is all reversible.
Well that was weird.
Energy + Matter + TIME = Nothing.
Creationists have abolished the first law of thermodynamics now?

Seriously, man, try and learn something about what you're talking about.

Damouse And Thermodynamics
I agree, Damouse's comments didn't make much sense.

Thanks for providing us with a bare link. Is there any part of the content of that website which you think is true and would like to discuss with us?
PS: Happy birthday.

If not why is investigating to detect evidence of death by design is science but investigating to detect evidence of life by design not a science?
Investigating the question is science.
Pretending that you've proved the answer is "yes" is not science.

Re: Off-topic reply.
Now that's a question with alot of mumbo-junbo! Just get to the point would you please the question was, "what made you abandon your faith?"
No it wasn't. If you look at the bottom of Chiroptera's post, you'll see that he was replying to message #98, not to message #99. And if you look at the top of it you'll see that he quotes the statement he was replying to.
I would of failed you for that answer.
Your rush to judgement is positively Gadarene.
