Christine O'donnell - Why aren’t monkeys still evolving into humans?

[loco]

LOL broham there are always going to be some ppl who dont agree, you can find ppl that think 9/11 was done with holograms but that doesnt make it so...

the vast vast majority of scientist agree with evolution and yes macro evolution even if they find some flaws in the inner workings of the theory, they still agree with the overall concept.

evolution through natural selections, migration, mutation takes many many things to happen first and foremost is time. If modern humans havent changed in 250k yrs what makes you think that you will see a overnight change in your lifetime?

second is an enviroment that lends itself to change otherwise the new trait wont be beneficial and wont survive...what has changed enviromentally over the course of modern man?

please guys look at this with an objective stance and strip away your preconcieved notions and bias. Do some legit research dont get facts from ppl with agendas.

Those I listed are not just any people.  They are modern, main stream, well respected, non-Creationist scientists.  Good job comparing them to 9/11 conspiracy theorist nuts!

^^^^^

I agree and their are studies that show many culture becoming more lactose intolerant b/c they stop producing something in their bodies as a result of not drinking milk as much...

my problem is with the idea that the evolutionary process is all of a sudden going to stop and the man made idea of what a species is...

Im not saying I agree with everything evolution and its concepts say but its just a false idea to think that b/c man says that this species is defined by this that evolution and its process will simply stop at that point and no longer evolve.

macro and micro evolution are the same thing they are evolution one is simply looked at on a smaller scale and one a larger.

the theory of evolution makes none NOT ONE ascertion about creation, so the idea that evolution goes against religion christianity specifically is crazy to me.

Fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with the tony....im gonna go jump off a bridge

i know they are phd's etc...lol dude like I said you will always have ppl disagree yes even ppl in the same profession(i didnt mean to ridicule them only to point to an example)

but again the vast vast majority of professionals in the area agree with the concept of evolution and its processes.

what makes you think that the processes of evolution are going to all of a sudden stop at the man made definitions of what a species is? Id like your words please...

[tonymctones]

Fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy Cow Tony, look out your window. Those really ARE flying pigs! 

It took awhile, ...but we actually agree on something.

Yes, but at least I have a chance with her that she will turn out ok.  Say 60-40

With the bearded marxist I am guaranteed a 100% far left nut who will raise my taxes. 

so you make more than 250,000 thousand a year?  If not, what are you worried about?  If yes, all you care about is your own pocket.  Either way, your logic is skewed.

[the_steevo_uk]

Goddam I love america to bits but seriously, I cannot for the life of me understand people who question evolution, the rest of the first world left that behind a loooooooong time ago....and by that I mean 100 years+. Seriously game over these questions have all been debated before, there is nothing to say.

it really worries me that some folk genuinely bring up points about monkey's not evolving into humans as proof of evolution being a bogus theory. Cool im all for limited government and strong foreign policy etc....but the bullshit that comes with being a conservative in america is just worrying...

please the sooner you guys stop this cherade the better...for everyone, I know of no other people with the exception of hassidic jews and nutty muslims that question evolution apart from some right wing americans....seriously that's the sort of people that you associate that shit with. The USA deserves better than this sheer stupidity.

[240 is Back]

great point steevo.

95% of what odonnell says makes sense.  her positions on $ issues, etc.

it's this unwillingness to just be straight and admit whether or not she even believes in evolution, that bugs me.

I mean, I sorta trust someone i disagree with (who has the balls to tell me what she believes and why), more than I trust someone who WONT EVEN ANSWER THE QUESTION of how she feels.

Sounds like you need to associate with more Americans.  A significant portion of the population questions the theory of evolution.  There are legitimate questions in a number of areas.  

One way to handle the gaping holes in the theory is to declare anyone who questions it stupid, which then allows you to avoid dealing with the significant problems with the theory.  Sort of a copout.

Yep, vague platitudes always do. Too bad she has no policies to implement it, which is kind of the job of the politician and all.

beach specifically which ancestor of modern day humans do you have a problem with and why?

also why do you think that no modern human remains have been found older than about 250k yrs but we have a large number of other animals that date back much much further?

[Hugo Chavez]

FUNNY STUFF!!!!  especially that little gem from BB above.  considering he does the same thing when there are theories voiced he doesn't like.

BB's entire history on this board consists of:

"I'm not watching that"
"I'm not reading that"
"I made it through the first 30 seconds"
and about 20,000 posts that go like this " "

and he has the sack left to call copout on others.  LOL!!!!!!

Post a pic of Noah's Ark. I want to see how big it is to fit two of every species on there.

you mean like obama and his little daily gaffe machine about cars in the ditch, slurpees, evil empire, putting the car in D, not giving the keys back to the car, etc?

[garebear]

And going to a "Constitution Conference" apparently doesn't make you an expert.

Tony I have a problem with the entire concept of all life on earth having a common ancestor.  One of the primary reasons I have a problem with this is the absence of transitional fossils.

What do you mean by "modern human remains"?  They're all the same.  All human. 

[Dos Equis]

I think I deleted mine.  You got a copy? 

And what does Noah's Ark have to do with the gaping holes in the theory of evolution?

why do you think that all the fossils are the same species?

there are fossils that correspond to the individual species on this time line why specifically do you feel that are all modern humans(homo sapiens)?
