Evolution or creation?

[phrodeau]

WTF?

Intelligent design and creation are NOT necessarily considered to be the same thing.

Intelligent design could be interference from unknown beings jacking around with DNA after Evolution had a ago at it.

Neither works for me.

You could say that bananas had their DNA jacked around by unknown beings 10,000 years or so ago. But then we'd all be expected to worship some ancient subsistence farmer in Indonesia.

The evidence isn't overwhelming, it's established fact since we have at least two creatures, man and horse, which we can trace back to earlier forms.

Further, ID relies on an "I don't know, God did it", which is as far from the scientific method as one can get.

For those who believe life was designed, I have one word for you: platypus.

So the evidence in favor of evolution is not overwhelming (resistless)? I would submit that facts are established by evidence. We can trace back a hell of a lot more than two animals (and also plants) to earlier forms. I'll see your platypus and raise you: shark.

 

[doowdniw]

Which design, the one when animals were first created, the change when Adam and Eve were cursed, or the change when the Great Flood happened?

When animals first appeared on the earth, beginning with the single celled ones in the primordial soup.

 

[pointless]

I missed this. Is there some kind of magic Jesus nanner?

it's a joke.

because god did not make bananas like that. we did.

 

[CandiCame]

it's a joke.

because god did not make bananas like that. we did.

Fun fact; with my preestablished dumbassery, this will shock no one, but I didn't know that wild bananas had seeds in them. I genuinely, genuinely thought that bananas were naturally seedless. Like well into adulthood I believed this. And then I was shown a non-humaned-up nanner and I was like, "wtf is that?" Because they're also not as big.

And it's not just a couple seeds. Bitch is like 99% seed. That's BULLSHIT.

Seriously, thank god for agriculture because I don't even know how you eat that shit. Seed removal technology is one of the best things humanity has ever done. As a redneck, it's cut my watermelon prep time in half.

Edit: Wait, I realized, looking at these pictures, that he has crazy hair because he's losing his hair and he's trying to puff it out to hide it! Look at that!

Apparently, most all of us have been peeling bananas wrong.

 

[Nuff_Said]

I don't believe in evolution. I believe we should spend taxpayers' money on something better than a gang of eggheads proving their theories.

 

[dolf]

but... but... bananas!

perfect fit for a human hand? pull tab at the top?
what more proof could one possibly need??

 

[Mike_Yates]

I stand with Darwin on evolution.

There is hardcore scientific and archaeological evidence for human beings having evolved from simian creatures.

You completely misread what I wrote. I was saying the evidence is beyond overwhelming, that there is no doubt it is correct because of the fact what is predicted has been established in at least two cases, man and horse, who have evolved through diferent forms over the eons. Just as evolution proposes.

As to the platypus, it is the ultimate argument against both ID and creationism since no supreme being capable of creating life would have been this scatter-brained to create such a creature, whereas through innumerable iterations, evolution could produce this oddity.

Also, coelacanth.

If you think bananas aren't what you thought, go look at the history of tomatoes and several other veggies. What we eat now bears almost no relation to how they were originally found in the wild.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

I believe in tinkering aliens who are attempting to direct us into replicating their machine society at which point in time we will undergo a planned mass extinction...



So Mike, anytime you have the option of implanted chips or mechanical replacement parts, you go for it dude.

Even the pussy has lost its fur.

You just indirectly yelled FUCKTARD! in a crowded thread.

Or corn, which can't even reproduce on it's own anymore, because we've bred the husks to be so thick that the kernels can't escape.

It casts a bit of irony on the whole "GMO" issue. Nearly all our food has been genetically modified, it's just the pace of the modification that has changed.

 

[about_average]

Evolution, because there's evidence of it.
The the only evidence for creation is that we're here.

 

[subdued_passion]

If I were you Yates, i wouldn't worry about the origin of the species but instead try to find out why is it that my dishwasher sings and tells me to do stuff (preferably before you decide to listen to it and kill your entire family in their sleep).

Speak for yourself and the other average people all you want but I am living proof of divine intervention.

 

[subdued_passion]

Nothing comes from nothing. Something has either always existed or has transformed.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Something has always existed.

Humans being creature of cycles find that idea unfathomable, so they create an eternal being who created something.

Then they simply stop thinking about it.

 

[Lovelynice]

Intelligent Design has many theories, it's not just one. It's also not the same thing as Creationism.

Evolution also is not just one theory, there's a bunch of them.
