So Palin Doesn't Believe in Evolution...

[Mr Natural]

Archeological finds have proven that so called stories in the bible, has been proven to be true and not just stories.

Then explain the talking snake.

I would but you would not believe it any more that I would, that we jumped from a long armed ape to an upright human.

With several steps in between over hundreds of thousands of years.

Then name them.
What has been found between homo habilis and homo erectus?

Well at least you and biologists who study evolution agree on something. We didn't jump from a long armed ape to an upright human.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Sigh. The evolution of species is not the origin of life. That's where the wack creationists mess up.

Archeological finds have proven that so called stories in the bible, has been proven to be true and not just stories.

Archeology has verified the historical components of many religions that are far removed from Christianity.

Just curious. I've read much of the Bible but can't recall...

...is there any mention of the rest of the world, specifically, outside the usual stuff in the Middle East/Mediterranean region?

If not, why is that? I mean, if the Bible is the word of the all knowing all seeing God, how come he only seems to know what the people of that narrow portion of the world seemed to know?

Check out the Book of Mormon.

Good point.

My statement is a fact. Evolution is a theory, not a scientific fact. I could care not care any less that your opinion thinks that is a "weak argument".

Your statement said nothing about evolution being a theory. Your statement was that certain historic figures did not believe in evolution. That is a weak argument, because the concept of evolution was not yet known to man when those people lived. None of them believed in automobiles either you know.

Now, since you've brought up the "theory" issue, I ask you, do you even know what a scientific "theory" is?

Oh for crying out loud.......If you have to ask such a damn dumb question then I'm gonna find something else to do.

Why do you find that so unbelievable? The dog went from wolf to chihuahua in a few thousand years and didn't even have to leave the species.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Only four out of ten Americans believe in evolution.

....And, it's been found that the other six are direct-descendents of....

.....The SEEKERS!

 

[Zona]

Only four out of ten Americans believe in evolution.

The other ones are fox viewers.

An ape with a spear is a more formidable opponent against a lion or a leopard or a bear or a wolf than one that is on all fours and cannot outrun the fore mentioned carnivores. At some point in time an ape was fortunate enough to climb up a small tree and break off a limb and conk a predator on the head with it. That should satisfy the dim witted on how this transformation took place. Evolution means you were not eaten.

Only four out of ten Americans believe in evolution.

Yeah. Well, not really.

By saying this out of context, you're implying that 60% of Americans believe in Creationism, and that is simply not true at all.

In fact, the same poll found that only 25% of Americans do not believe in Evolution.,

and that the remainder had "No Opinion Either way".

[Vast LWC]

And, it's reasonable to assume that a good portion of the people polled didn't understand the concept of evolution, as shown here:

 

[Vast LWC]

But, as for the OP....

Why the hell are you still talking about Sarah Palin?

Give it a rest already. The woman is just not that interesting. The only reason I looked at this thread was the mention of evolution.

 

[Wicked Jester]

And 60% of americans polled believe Bin Laden is in hell.

 

[rdean]

If she is so stupid as to not believe in evolution she should only be a candidate for president of her church bake sale committee.

Same for Mike Huckabee? Not qualified to be president because...?

How can you become the leader of the country that used to be the world's leader in science, but because of right wingers and their bias against education and science, is now trailing, and insist you will take the country back to number one?

Right wingers are taking the country back OK, back to the "bronze" age.
