I'd also like to point out that I am not arguing the origin of life on Earth, I am arguing the validity of evolutionary theory.
To me, it's hard to deny the proof behind evolutionary theory, especially when I look at the fossil record and see the similarities between dinosaurs and modern birds or the similarities between extinct hominids and us. Just compare the hand of a chimp to the hand of a man. Except for the extra hair on the chimp, they're identical.
To anyone I offended today, I apologize. I acknowledge that I'm new here. I've enjoyed today's discourse. This is the most intellectually stimulating forum conversation I've ever had.
If I've been too aggressive, I apoligise. I know it doesn't excuse me, but I'm used to other forums out there where it feels like the wild west.
...but there IS no fossil record which supports Evolution as many believe...It's just statistically improbably - by VAST odds for things to have happened as you believe them to.
It's fine to stick up for your cause - but just wait awhile before calling longer-tenured members 'idiots'.
