According to the story, the guppies that changed somewhat were still of the guppy species, and did not mutate into some other species altogether
False, they were unable to mate with each other, ergo speciation had occured. They in fact did mutate into another species. soon I discovered that this rock thing was true Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet All of a sudden i found myself in love with the world And so there was only one thing I could do Was ding a ding dang my dang along ling long - Jesus Built my Hotrod Ministry Live every week like it's Shark Week! - Tracey Jordan Just a monkey in a long line of kings. - Matthew Good If "elitist" just means "not the dumbest motherfucker in the room", I'll be an elitist! - Get Your War On *not an actual doctor

Psalms 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth His handywork. Indeed it does. It is by studying the world we live in that we have come to the conclusion that the diversity of life we see on this planet is the result of evolution, not "intelligent design." If you really believed this, you would also believe that He intelligently designed this universe and all life therein.

quote: Big difference between proving fission in the 1930's and proving evolution has occurred over billion of years. Why? What part of the fossil record are you having trouble with? What part of the molecular phylogenetic tree are you having trouble with? The part that actually proves over billions of years that the start-to-finish ToE model works, and did not come about by our Creator creating each species after their own kind.

Oh, by the way: We can even create what you demand from scratch: Self-replicating, auto-catalysing, homochiral molecules that evolve. Maybe you would also like to try creating your own material to do your research with, instead of starting with material that was created by our Creator. What arrogance!

In order to make a debate out of this, you now have to provide evidence to show that there is a difference between proving fission and proving evolution, or at least show how my evidence is faulty. Answered in message 300.

Those 72 Nobel Prize winning scientists I quoted --- do they know what "true science" is? Answered in message 300.

quote: Please don't be deliberately dense. There is a big difference between scientists who believe in a Creator doing scientific research and "Creationist Science." The former is science, the latter isn't. But I think you know that.

Intelligent design is simply the belief/knowledge that our creator God, before anything was created, proceeded to intelligently design (and create) the universe and all life therein from the start to the finish. So ... does it not rule out evolution? Only that definition would include a deity who incorporated evolution, the Big Bang, et cetera into his plan: in other words a real God who made the universe we actually live in. Yes, it does rule out evolution as you have defined evolution. The Creator we creationists know created every creature after their own kind, and did not step back and seemingly let this process happen by randomness.

Document what you have claimed above. Specifically show scientific documentation for "kinds." Not creation "science," but real science please. And don't bother quoting scripture or revelation, as that is not science (quite the opposite, in fact). Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.

"Things that can never be proven" include the theory of gravity, germ theory, and all other scientific theories. Most scientists who live in a real world would disagree. Most scientists who work in valuable scientific research are able to:(1) prove how gravity works and thereby engineer the force of gravity into other useful results, (2) determine how germs attack the human body and how to prevent them doing their evil work, and (3) take scientific theories that are true and prove them to be ture to a high degree of accuracy, and how to take these proven facts and make them useful.

The ToE has been "proven" to a high degree of accuracy, which makes it a "fact" by your own standard. By your standard, but not by mine. See message 300.

Now than, have I proven anything by following your model? Do my predictions correspond with my evidence? yes, so there is no need to incorpurate my theory into anyone elses and we are back to a earth cented solar system. Come on now this isn't science. This is at most a method to develop a best guess. You didn't finish your example, thereby making it true science. (1) The sun does not rise in the east, travel and then set in the west.(2) The earth revolves on its axis, creating night and day. (3) The earth revolves around the sun, creating seasons. (4) The sun, with its planets & their moons, is a part of the Milky Way galaxy. That is true science.

Actually, you are the one who doesn't "get it," if "it" is understanding the meaning of scientific theories. In fact, scientific theories do not magically turn into laws or absolutes no matter how well they explain the data. So to say as you did that "we finally agree that the ToE is a theory and not a fact" shows that you do not "get it." Sorry, but that is my opinion that I suspect most here would agree with. I am under no ilusions that most here at the EVC forum do not get what I'm saying, but a few do. It's the few that do understanding what I'm saying that I'm trying to reach. Blessings

I'm saying that in order for the ToE to be proven to be true, you must be able to do this. Since you can't do this, the start-to-finish ToE predictions/theories are off limits to true scientific research. I'm saying that, in order for your theory of nuclear fission to be proven true, you must be able to see an atomic nucleus fragment into two pieces. Since you have never seen an actual nucleus, your theory of atomic fission is off-limits to true scientific research. ----- Do you see the problem with this? Since we have no hope of seeing something directly, we must completely abandon our attempt to understand it scientifically. If your 1930's physicists had applied your reasoning, we never would have discovered the enormous power supply available from nuclear fission. Darwin loves you.
