Current examples of mutation from the "normal" (average) human genome that prove societally beneficial within a certain culture proves the reality of evolution.
"Mutation"?? Don't you mean medical disorders. So someone with down syndrome mutated? Is that really a monkey who is "retarded" or didn't go over properly to being human or what?

Jesus is the Creator
Don't forget Jehovah
We, as well-educated humans, have trouble duplicating or mimicing or even understanding how nature does things, and to me it just speaks of God and His marvelous wonders of deliberate creation.
How come we don't know the language of monkeys then? Why do we have to study their behaviour?
Wouldn't monkeys be more superior then?

Do you know that there is so much more about this world that support creation than there ever would be for evolution? But aside from the facts of it, I just have to say that for anyone to think that they come from a monkey is a pretty low opinion of one's self.
And that is very true!

I could not get involved with this discussion when she said "Jesus is the creator"
To me, that is an obscene statement.
I would say, rather, that anyone who thinks that a human could come from a monkey has a rather high opinion of the wonders of God's power.
No, I am not calling you a monkey. Your inferred assertion is that belief in evolution requires belief in x. That is a glaring logical fallacy that I reject without even considering it. Of course, your posts are typically full of them—among other condiments of a smellier variety.
I think you are among the forum's best proof that humans might have descended from monkeys, where else would you have developed this habit of slinging your feces in public.

Well since you asked, . Yes my dearest Hibie it is true. They have an extra chromsome, which is a mutation as well a medical disorder.

People who know nothing about evolution still hold to the thought that it only entails a conversion from monkey to man. That is about as informed on the issue as arguing why we don’t still have any talking snakes.
Evolution means a lot more than changes in outward physical attributes. It has a lot to do with brain development. In that aspect, it is very obvious that we are still evolving and still early in the evolutionary process. Slowly, as it can be seen.
After all, Bush was elected into office. Twice.
The history recorded in the bible is about as reliable as a road map of Munchkin land. How it describes the time before the flood is physically impossible just as the story of Noah and the flood itself. It’s a myth people. Developed by men with 2000 year old thinking and understanding of how this planet actually works.
You cannot fit forty million species, male, and female, into a boat made of wood the size of an modern day super tanker. Not to mention their food and waste management system that only eight people managed in an attempt to take care of over 80 million animals. If you do the math and see that then you might say there must have been less than forty million species of animals back then so they would fit in the Ark. If you believe that, then you must believe in evolution. The bible doesn’t speak of a movie sequel “animal creation day 2”.
The history of the bible states that the sun revolves around the earth. That’s what they thought back then with their limited knowledge about anything accept myths and miracles. What they didn’t know about, they just made up. Kind of like what the Watchtower does.
Try reading about some real history and see where the church called anything that proved them wrong, heresy. Start with reading about Galileo. He was almost killed for saying the earth is not the center of the solar system and it revolved around the sun. Not the sun revolving around it like the bible says. Then try reading about evolution, talking snakes, and monkey people.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

BS...aw, forget it. Geeze.
You are a wise man, Dave. No kidding on the Bush thing. Talk about a monkey.
Further, if evolution were true, why are there any monkeys left?
No one ever won an argument with a brick wall so why bother explaining this to him.
