Re: Topic Reminder
RE--Your description reflects a good sense of topic, but you have argued in other posts for special creation. This thread is simply seeking the evidence supporting common ancestry.--
I appreciate your position on the matter and am very glad to see that this forum has a medium in place to keep discussions from running down all sorts of "bunny trails." Perhaps though I was misinformed on the bigger picture here. I was operating under the impression that special creation versus evolution, was the over all intended back drop to all discussions? If that is incorrect I will immediately adjust, and I have already resisted the temptation to respond to baited comments in this thread that I can see lead off topic. However I did think that the topic of creation would come up from time to time in all the discussion threads.
RE--Maybe you'd like to propose a thread seeking the evidence for special creation. Or comparing the evidence for common ancestry with that for special creation.--
Is it possible to create a topic broad enough to explore all avenues and aspects of creation versus evolution... in the EvC forums?
Hope you have a great day
JBR

Re: Topic Reminder
RE--Look at the list of Forums. There are 11 science forums and 5 religious forums, ranging from the Big Bang to Geology to the Origin of Life to the Bible and so on. A thread open to all these topic areas would be chaotic and would lack focus, so we try to avoid that here.--
I see. Thanks

Re: genetic again is the reason we see common ancestors and ToE
RE--Common decent has not only been proven, and you can enjoy the history at any good museum, it is the only explanation for the diversity found in nature that has evidence to support it. It is the premise for all of biology, throughout the entire world, not just a single source. --
Hmmm, that's odd. And this comment comes immediately after the "topic reminder" post. Yet no one is complaining that you are off topic. Okay, so I'll bite... how exactly would a walk through a museum "prove" common decent exactly? Is it cuz "This old bone on this guy kinda looks like that old bone on that guy... and so that means they're distant cusins?" Or are you telling me that someone finally put out a finely graduated chain of fossils (with no large leaps) from one MAJOR kind to another? Because that's all that would ever "prove" it from the fossil record.
RE--There is no debate, common decent is the only thing taught is biology throughout the world. --
Okay so now we've established that you don't get out much, but contrary to your comment, thousands of biology classes around the world don't teach common decent. But what was the point of making me go there? We're off topic. In this thread we are looking for evidence linking apes to man. And despite all your squiming, if you don't have something other than a similarity argument... you got notta.
