so i have started down the path of trying to understand evolution, and to get the linear lies that the jws planted in my head out of it.

i bought an audiobook called "evolution: what the fossils say and why it matters" by donald prothero.

i heard it recommended on an atheist podcast that i listened to.

Cofty:

You clearly have no interest in sincere conversation or the possibility of learning anything

Dude it is like you are in my head, knowing my motives and shit!

AFAIK everything I have posted on this thread has been factually true. If I wrote something false do tell, otherwise get over yourself & stop with all the "I know your motives better than yourself young man" preaching.

I blame the internet where kids can watch a few YouTube videos and quickly check stuff on Wiki

..and the hippety hoppety music and the bumbum blasters and the way young ones today don't wear suspenders and premarital sex and how ppl no longer go to the barber on Saturdays and NTV and how a man can no longer feed his family for a month on a dollar...

OFCOURSE you blame wikipedia, after all, you know better than wikipedia lol. Oh how I pine for the day I will attain your level of wisdom!

@whatshallcallmyself: At the moment evolutionary theory does 'explain' the origin of thoughts in a satisfactory manner

okay I am confused. you say evolution do explain the origin of thought; @Coded Logic say evolution should not explain the origin of thought and wikipedia treat it as an unsolved problem.

Perhaps you too should write to wikipedia and provide your solution for how thought evolved?

Hothead - All of your ranting and raving, your sophomoric insults and your ad hominem attacks in this thread could be summed up with - 'there is still a lot more to learn about biological evolution'

Bravo Cofty! It is almost like you read my first post where I wrote exactly that and finally understood it! *clap* *clap* *clap*

BTW sorry for triggering you into calling me names. Should I call you a name too bro? In that way, it may seem more normal that you are a middle-aged man calling ppl names on the internet over some stupid post you didn't understand lol.

If you are ready to join the adults, do you think the evolution of human thought is a solved problem?

@Coded Logic:

I don't understand why you think evolution should explain the origin of thought.

You don't think darwinism can/should explain the origin of thought?

Before someone strawman me for the 117th time: I don't say evolution cannot explain thought in principle. I don't say thought proves evolution wrong. I say evolution RIGHT NOW don't explain the origin of thought well.

And that ain't my opinion but the evolution of actual biologists who have done the hard work.

(and now I bet someone will go: "herp-derp, that was never in dispute". In which case I ask: Why was my post controversial to begin with)

@TD

Similarly, organic evolution is not junk science simply because we are not yet able to unite related areas of inquiry under the same umbrella.

I never said evolution is junk science, I believe in evolution FFS.

Don't read what other assume about me but what I say. I said at the outset there was things we don't know about darwinism(=evolution) and things we knew.

Then Cofty jumped on top of me and said darwinism wasn't a thing.

Then I posted a link to wikipedia which said otherwise.

Then cofty got ridiculous and said he knew better than wikipedia (yah that actually happened)

Then he asked me what we didn't know about evolution.

Then I wrote a list.

Then cofty got even more silly and of it went from there and all of a sudden I am made into a creationist...

Cofty, first try:

I've never heard of the 'Nopel prize'.

BRAVO! nitpicker. Mind going back to the topic?

Cofty, second try:

Perhaps you could clear up any misunderstanding by stating what things you think we do now for sure about biological evolution.

I'll get right on that after you state what things we know for sure about chemistry bro!

You do know evolution is kind of a big research area, like thousands and thousands of scientific articles.

If you are trolling me then just hop along troll... otherwise, seriously, you think everything we know for sure about evolution can fit into a single post??? (I am asking you in all honesty bc I thought you knew more about evolution than that!)

@Shepherdless:

The Standard Model should really explain dark matter. It is supposed to explain all particles.

Alternatively, the standard model is trying to explain .. I don't know .. the forces and particles that are actually in the standard model???

The theory of evolution on the other hand, has been verified in countless ways, and there are no longer any mysteries of any significance.

incredibly silly thing to say. You don't think the origin of thought is a serious scientific question? you don't think there is more to explore within evolution?

Do you wonder what evolutionists do their research about?

Anyway my point: with regards to the standard model, you assume it cannot be known to have been confirmed unless it explains EVERYTHING. With evolution, you give it a pass even though there is a ton of stuff we still don't know.

you see the problem?

According to your way of thinking, newtonian mechanics or relativity are not true beyond all reasonable doubt either... so yah, we are back to relativism where nothing is really true lol.

Love the bias by some liberal posters: Just bc I am not a liberal & defend Donald Trump against the very unfair criticism he receives, some of you guys assume I am a moron who believes in creationism and attack me with a bunch of pathetic arguments which just shows you didn't read a single word I wrote to begin with!!
