Bump for Engineer and Darwinist
Perhaps this is a good thread to revive to talk about perceived problems with the theory of evolution, it only went 65 posts and the last one was in 2002.
Enjoy

Re: Bump for Engineer and Darwinist
In Message 46 Engineer states (edited to ask just the question of evolution):
speciation. It possibly resolves some of the dilemmas of the ark. So I ask how the new world apes got to the ark from south america, but the theory of evolution is challenged with the same problem.
Why is this a problem for evolution Engineer?

The origin of monkeys on the continent of South America is a matter of much current debate. Given the isolation of South America for a large time during the Tertiary Period, the question of how the monkeys reached the continent may be difficult to answer. The two most likely places of where platyrrhines originated from are North America and Africa, Antarctica being a third place would be difficult to discern because of the difficulty in finding fossils in such a harsh land.

quote:
Primates are remarkably recent animals. Most animal species flourished and became extinct long before the first monkeys and their prosimian ancestors evolved. While the earth is about 4.54 billion years old and the first life dates to at least 3.5 billion years ago, the first primates did not appear until around 50-55 million years ago. That was after the dinosaurs had become extinct.
Are you implying that not having a complete answer means the theory is invalid?
Enjoy.

Re: More About Monkeys and deists?
Anyone who believes that New World Monkeys both evolved and managed to get to the New World after the purported global flood 4,350 years ago is in no position to debate or question the science of the matter.
Curiously Engineer claims to be a deist (Message 34):
quote:
To answer your point, I will always be a deist because of my own personal experiences that predate my choice of a religion and relate to my own personal conscience and experience.
Although he does seem to have issues with biblical concepts.
Enjoy.
