@plantermoo saidDon't you reject evolution, when there is plenty of evidence for it?
They reject the supernatural when there’s plenty of evidence for it.

@plantermoo saidIf the "argument" that "there really is no other explanation" [other than the one that your religion provides you with] satisfies you, then that is a matter for you and not for atheists
Not a good comparison because there’s no other explanation for the four points I listed that atheists have to believe by default. I guess they could say they don’t know but there really is no other explanation.
@plantermoo saidAtheists don't make the claims that you seek to attribute to them.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThere’s no evidence for it outside of an unknown number of disputed transitional fossils and a similar genetic makeup among animals and among animals and humans, which is not surprising considering we live on the same planet, breathe the same air and eat the same kinds of foods

@plantermoo saidOh dear. Here, have a ball.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidYou do realize, don’t you, that no one disputes evolution occurs within a species? I’m referring to the evolutionists’ claim that species evolve into other species. And I’m using a common-sense definition of species - not one that permits 5,000 species of fruit flies and 17,500 species of butterflies.

Do you seriously think all life can be traced back to a single-celled organism floating in the ocean?
@plantermoo saidI don't know but I don't rule it out. This may have been the way some kind of creator entity introduced life onto this planet: I am open-minded about that too.

@plantermoo saidEvolution requires an inordinate amount of time. The universe has provided that.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidTime is actually the enemy of evolution because things break down over time. Believing they remain static and eventually continue progressing into an entirely separate species is absurd

@plantermoo saidAs is almost every word in that paragraph.

@plantermoo saidYes they do I do!

Give me a provable example.
While you are at it give me an expalnation of how we got 18 ft Giants with 6 fingers and toes (last one seen by US patrol in Afghanistan 2006), how does that fit into evolution?
@ghost-of-a-duke saidThat’s a arguable point.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidNo, it requires specific timing and instructions, plenty of time do not overcome the problems required to be overcome.
