The same one we observe today of course, breeding and speciation within kinds.
Are hippos and whales the same 'kind'?
How about dinosaurs and birds?
Lobe-finned fish and amphibians?
The fact that these share a common ancestor is beyond debate.

61Simple introduction to the theory of evolution
by Diogenesister inhi new folks, lurkers and trolls.
i thought i would post this simple but interesting video which shows how scientists bring multiple lines of evidence together to prove evolution is true; for example:.
comparative anatomy.

Some say historical science is a misnomer, and will never escape the theory category
This is literally the most ignorant thing a creationist can say.
If you don't know the meaning of a scientific theory you are not ready to have a sensible conversation.
Read a book FFS!

Sir Fred Hoyle said that the probability of the evolutionary origin of life is equal to the probability that a tornado sweeping through a junkyard would assemble a Boeing 747!
I would like to see a source for that. If it is in context then it is an astonishingly stupid thing to say.
In his defense he was writing a long time ago. Modern physicists like Jeremy English are working on the hypothesis that, from the perspective of physics, life is as likely as a rock rolling down a hill.

As usual Perry TOTALLY ignores every word I write.
Coward!
Somebody who admits never having read a science book in their entire life doesn't qualify for an opinion about evolution.

You're in the Army Now: Jehovah's Witnesses No Longer Exempt From Finnish Draft
by Tahoe inhttps://sputniknews.com/europe/201809211068220658-finland-jehovah-witnesses-army/.
the finnish government has ruled that the current law allowing jehovah's witnesses to avoid military service, in place for several decades, is discriminatory and contradicts the constitution.. .
in the future, finnish jehovah's witnesses* will be obliged to either serve in the nation's military or perform civil service on the same terms as everyone else, the government ruled, submitting a corresponding proposal to parliament, national broadcaster yle reported.. according to the 1987 law, jehovah's witnesses were not only freed from the military draft, they were freed of any obligation to perform community service as a pacifist alternative, a common option among other young people in finland.

@RAT - The biological difference between males and females is not external genitalia. It is the size and complexity if the gamete.
@Perry - 'Information' is a metaphor for what DNA does. It is just chemicals doing their thing.
If we had not a single fossil DNA would prove the fact of evolution beyond all doubt.
Here are just a few examples of the genetic evidence for evolution....
#1 Protein Functional Redundancy
Comparing the sequences of amino acids in ubiquitous proteins confirms the relationship between all living things.#2 DNA Functional Redundancy
Comparison of the DNA that codes for the amino acids of ubiquitous proteins predicts the tree of life with an astonishing degree of accuracy.#3 ERVs
Endogenous retroviruses that infected our ancestors are found in the same place of the genome of our closest primate cousins.#4 Smelly Genes
Hundreds of broken genes that used to code for olfactory receptors in our ancestors are still found in our genome.#5 Vitamin C
Why humans can no longer make their own vitamin C and what that tells us about our species' history.#6 Human Chromosome 2
Our second biggest chromosome is made up of two of our ancestors' chromosomes stuck end-to-end.#7 Human Egg Yolk Gene
Humans and our primate cousins have the genes for making vitellogenin and they are all broken in the same way.#8 Jumping Genes
Bits of parasitic code called ALU elements prove our common ancestry with primates.#10 Non-Coding DNA
In common with many other species huge amounts of our genome originated as copying errors.Here is the entire series of forty threads....

Has God preserved His word today?
by JW Answers inhas god preserved his word today?
many people attack, doubt and fault god's word.
yet god has made several promises in his word.he promised to preserve his word unto every generation,he promised that every word would be truth,he promised that we can rely and depend on his every word.satan wants nothing more than to dismiss, and cast doubt on god's word... so the question today is... do we have god's preserved word today?

JWanswers - Your argument seems to be, 'The bible is true because the bible says the bible is true'.
Is that a fair summary? Can you see the flaw in you argument?
Have you heard the phrase 'begging the question'?
Will you ever engage in a conversation or are you too used to being in a pulpit, 'six feet above contradiction'?

JWanswers. Is it that you are unaware of the manuscript evidence regarding the 'Johannine Comma', or are you just trying to ignore it in the hope nobody will notice?
By the way that brown tie isn't working for you.
