TOE and the Reasons for Doubt

No, it is your assertions and prejudices talking. You've been shown that your understanding of current evolutionary theory is sorely lacking at best. What you propose as problems are not regarded as such by biologists because everything you've presented is already known and either incorporated into the theory, or was even predicted BY the theory, such as "living fossils" and stasis.What you need to do, rather than keep posting pretty pictures (and I admit, many of them are well taken with great colors) is explain, fully and with cites, WHY what you're showing us is bad for evolution. You need to honestly engage with people who disagree with you, rather than just dismissing their replies as "prejudice and assertion", and accept that you may not be omniscient: you may misinterpret things, you may be misinformed, you may not understand things. As I recall, one of your heroes was not a fan of pride and was a big proponent of humility.Judging by your name and your tactics here, it seems quite possible you're actually an "evolutionist" acting as a caricature of a fundamentalist creationist as a way to make the position seem laughable. If so, well done, but please come clean and stop clogging the site. If not, you may want to rethink your tactics under the realization that you're not doing your cause any favors and are, quite probably, doing it harm.

Have you considered the possibility that people placed them there? You know, modern people? The ones who are mining the coal, in fact? Does it not seem likely that some joker decides to stick something into the coal as a way to fool his friends? Maybe the coal miners are a little less than tidy and simply drop something, and a subsequent coal miner misinterprets it? Maybe it's not even the miners, maybe it's an overzealous creationist grasping at straws to try and prop up their flagging and crumbling "theory" either by seeding the site, or by intentionally misinterpreting the finding of said artifacts?

So you claim, but you have yet to show that to be the case. As an ex-Christian, it seems my prejudices are well founded, as mine are rational, logical and evidence based, rather than the opposite. They've done a great job, as evidenced by the fact that you're best reply to a refutation of your posts is to simply ignore it, assert that it's laughable, and to Gish gallop to another topic without actually allowing any sort of debate to take place. Your tactics are dishonest, and even if you could provide some evidence against evolution, it would get lost among all the chaff you're throwing in the air. Again, you're doing your cause harm and little good. I'm at a loss as to what you're hoping to do here. You're not convincing anyone, you're not learning anything.What's your goal?

No...but I think people would go through the trouble of digging, in cases, hundreds of feet below the surface of the earth just to get coal...you've heard of those things called coal mines, right? I don't know. I haven't heard any engineers say they found stuff encased in coal. I'm sure if they did, it would be headline news, considering the process that makes coal would have destroyed any artifact in the first place. The only way something would get into the coal is by having it put there at a later time. I don't want, nor need your respect. I assure you, you have none of mine. I prefer to be well regarded by people of conscience, thought, and integrity. Three properties you're sorely lacking. Yeah, logic would tend to hurt your idea, I can see why you would reject it. WHen it does, you can gloat all over this forum. I'm not going to hold my breath though. I would imagine any human eaten by a T. rex would be digested, and any placement of human bones inside T. rex bones would be less than conclusive evidence, no matter how much you would love to think so.

Right back atcha. Isn't this form of debate fun and entertaining? We can throw insults and assertions left and right! I didn't turn my back on anything. My parents raised me to think logically and believe what I see. When doing so, it became obvious that believing in fairy tales was something for children and was a good thing to grow out of.You calim to be an "ex-evolutionist" and you seem to think that word means "scientist who isn't Christian." SO it appears you're the one who turned your back on something, namely logic and reason. I'd advise you to turn back around, your prejudices are showing. I don't resent you. I resent your dishonesty, your unfounded accusations, and your inability to debate in good faith on a debate forum. Until you show any incling toward reversing course on any of those, you're not going to get mcuh "good feelings." See, I tend to want people to show themselves worthy of my respect, and you have failed to do so on just about every post you make. There are many creationists I respect on here. They earn my respect by debating honestly and behaving in a respectful manner to those who disagree with them. If you do so, I will begin to change my opinion of you. I sincerely hope that you do.Now, I fear this is not quite the topic, so I'm going to stop, and I assume you'll throw in a "last word" and thst you in turn will assume by my lack of response that I'm letting you win. I assure you, I'm merely being honest...try it.
