does b believe in evolution?

Do i believe in facts?

>>714319530
im asking the questions here

How is it even debated at this point?

>>714319436
ya it could be anything op

>>714319684
i ask because someone at work said they don't believe it. I was not in the mood for debating her but wish I did now.

>>714319436
I belive in microevolution because of the observable process. I'm a little iffy on macroevolution. I don't fully disbelieve it. I just think that the supporting evidence is a bit weak and forced.

>>714320333
what a waste of trips

>>714319807
It's not worth it to argue. It's not a complicated concept, but people can't seem to move past "loooolll I dint cum from no monkey" opinion.

>>714319436
Belief in Macroevolution is just as much a religion as belief in an intelligent designer. There is evidence to potentially support both, but it's a mediocre theory at best.

>>714320333
on what points if i may ask?

>>714319530
believing in facts is irrational. i just take facts as given.

>>714321870
Except all evidence ever collected points towards macroevolution, and none point towards intelligent design.

No i don't

>>714320510
Apes look just like niggers tho. So its not that hard.

>>714319436
Agreed. Abby Road is THE God tier album.

>>714319436
It's fucking bullshit, how come there are still monkeys around to this day?

>>714321979
No written observation of evolution from one species into another exists to my knowledge. Of course the overwhelming argument is that humans were incapable of written language. But even during recorded history, we haven't observed that kind of change.

>>714322273
Except the lack of transitional beings with extreme mutations

Then why diddnt other land mammals evolve to be as smart as us.

It's not a matter of believing, it's proven

>>714322633
What is divergent evolutionary paths?

>>714322798
Chihuahuas and Great Danes. They cannot mate on their own, yet are still the same species. Given time (hundreds of thousands of years, perhaps, or a few more centuries of selective breeding), they would become their own species on their own.

>>714322664
That's because natural changes in species take time on the geological scale.

>>714322939
Diet, specialization, and brain structure.

>>714319436

Do you believe in God?

>>714323069
Where in the bible does it say that all creatures were created as they are and cannot change?

>>714319436
The only evolution /b/ believes in is from man to trap.

God created the earth, so no

I haven't met those three guys in the center hun ;)

>>714319807
It's a pointless argument, really. If somebody isn't convinced by 200 years of evidence and scrutiny then a ten minute browbeating by you or me isn't going to help.

This might seem simple minded, but a don't subscribe to the "with enough time..." statement. It seems to contradict the second law of thermodynamics.

Plus it makes more sense to me that I am the product of something much smarter and more powerful than I. A car doesn't come into being given infinite time. It was made by man. And a man is a much more complex machine than a car.

>>714323346
They are extinct hun ;) if they weren't then we wouldn't be here

That one in the middle is definitely Alex from down my local.

>>714319436
NO FUCK U . NOTHING IS REAL. WE ARE NOTHING. WE ARE MERE PEASANTS IN AN ULTIMATE GALAXY THAT HAS A PLAN FOR FUN AND FUCK U.
dear mother earth: please end our exist. the human race has failed you. destroy us immediatly

>>714323346
That's because they died out, hun. Or did you expect individuals to live hundreds of thousands of years?

>>714322664
too short a time period. but the genetic evidence is conclusive - we share genetic material with other species.

>>714319436
where are the 4 people in between that picture today? i think monkeys apes were given a bad hand genetics wise, we were always human

>>714323404
Yeah, the watchmaker thing, but a human-centric view of the universe is pretty weak since we've been here for about 12 seconds.

>>714323180
>bible

im sorry i didnt know you're on Bible level

>>714323404
>. It seems to contradict the second law of thermodynamics.

no it doesn't.

but tell me how you think it does...

>>714323510
We do share generic material, but this is not am argument that contradicts the existence of a common creator.

Some computer programs share lines of code, but that are still programmed by a person.

>>714323607
They brought up God, I meanly asked for where their argument came from.

>>714323770
>get called out on stupid argument
>"It was only bait"
People like you are why the "I was only pretending to be retarded" meme exists.

>>714323579
Which is why I don't disbelieve in evolution. I just think it's foolish to reject discussion with those who belive in a creator. After all, what do we know?

>>714323607
How open minded of you

>>714323876
On that I can't disagree. Though if there is a creator there's too much evidence that It created us through the processes of evolution to dismiss.

>>714323647
The creator was a lazyfuck who reused the same formula. He even gave acuatic life handbones and earmuscles to humans.
What a lazyfuck. I like him.

>>714323876
A surprising amount, actually. We've worked out the fundamental basics of matter, developed workable theories for the creation of the universe, found evidence as to the earliest forms of life, and plotted our evolutionary history back tens of millions of years, if not further.

>>714323941
HHahahahahhahaa!
Not him but that's hilarious!

>>714319436
Not a belief.

we gotta give the kid a start

Humans breed animals to bring out and strengthen certain traits to suit human purposes and desires.
They do this for centuries. Eons.
They deny the same thing could happen in the wild as part of natural selection while it happens around them.

>>714324464
This, my friend, is microevolution. Almost nobody denies this process

>>714324383
gj kid!

>>714324392
The message you are replying to was my first post in the thread. Seriously I'm here to laugh at people who are stupid enough to take this bait. What are you doing here bud?

>>714324702
Jesus did

>>714324702
That Calgary dude who dug up dinosaur fossils in his own backyard and adamantly claimed they were a couple thousand years old.

soooo...nothing created everything?

>>714325053
Hello newfriend, you must not know the definition of microevolution.

>>714319436
I believe in Culthulu.
Your reptilian mind traps wont work on mr ben jewson

>>714319436
I'm an anthropology major, so I would very much hope so.

what is passed off as evolution is actually adaptation

>>714325330
sooo when did u become a BELIEVER in evolution?

There is no need for a discussion if evolution exists. The only (ONLY) reason for doubting evolution are religious ones. But an attitude which was not accepted by arguments can not be changed by arguments.

Forget her. The worlds turns on without her accepting evolution. Every discussion is a waste of time, I found out years before.

>>714325235
I'm guessing it means
"Well in the face of obvious evidence, let's only admit it happens on a small timescale."

What I really want to know is, do you defend link related idiot.

>>714325878
That's got to be a message from God if there ever was one.

...how do you we know that fossils are sixty million years old? were told thats how the dating system works. no agreement...just told. thats not science. science is observable. we have 6k years of recorded observable science...no change.

>>714326310
Science tells us nylon stockings and spandex leggings were created in petro chemical company labratories, but how do we know they weren't really created by Satan to make us masturbate?

>>714325208
yep.

you have a problem with that? (cos if you have then you have to answer the third man argument...)
