<quoted text>Evidence? really?
i agree, faith is within you. if you feel your faith is returned by some god or gods or goddesses, that too, is within you.

It is absolutely wrong to put creationism in our schools, and it should be obvious. Not everybody in Louisiana is a theist. In fact, since creationism is mostly a Christian ideal, and not everybody is a Christian in Louisiana,, it is technically religious persecution. Should Aetheists, Muslims, Jews, Believers in Scientology (I don't know what their name is), Hindus, and others be persecuted into following this filth? I don't think so...

Just pointing out that I'm not the delusional one. Majority rules.

OMG so you believe this to be a be species? This person can no now?
It's someone with an immunity not evolution. You've got to be kidding. I guess I miss judged you. You apparently don't have a clue.

Sorry for hurting your pride but your nuts. Your an imbecile to think that everything you see living in today's world went though millions and millions of evolutions to become what they are today.

<quoted text>Living things evolve to become better suited to living in the environment where they live. As time goes by if the environment doesn't change, the organism may remain essentially unchanged. If the environment changes, the organism will evolve to fit better with the new environment. In this process it may acquire new features, change into a new species, or become extinct.

KJV wrote, " As such, shouldn't the loss of a useful trait, such as eyesight, be regarded as the opposite of evolution? Not so, say recent news reports on blind fish.
Biologists compared DNA sequences from 11 populations of cavefish (Astyanax mexicanus), which are a blind variation of the Mexican tetra fish, to 10 related fish populations that have the ability to see. Since they can interbreed, they "are the same species."1
"

Depends on whether the eyesight is a useful trait in the environment in which the organism lives. Cave fish which live in the dark may not have any use for sight. SO it is not a suprise if they lose that ability.

<quoted text>You keep repeating this same debunked phrase, as if you are attempting to brainwash people into believing it. Your assertion is contradictory to what we see. Life thrives to replace the chaos of what evolution has created with order. Humans being the perfect example of this.

KittenKoder wrote:

<quoted text>Copy pasta from a well known debunked creatard source, Discovery Institute, anything you copy from them, or any source that uses them as a source, is already debunked by hundreds of people.

First, the wording is a strawman fallacy. The assertion is completely ignoring all scientific research done today. If this was true then vaccines would not work.

<quoted text>You said "That just is not going to happen" - you dont know that. That is just your sense of incredulity.

So what if one mutation increased the complexity without evolving new functions? Arent there other examples where new function is added by mutation?

<quoted text>So? Saying a bunch of people believe something does not make it true. At one time, most people thought the Earth was flat. That didn't make it flat.

Large numbers of people believe false things all the time.
