    How, exactly, is that stupid? I contend that only ignorant people would disagree with it. Unfortunately, ignorant people don't know that they look stupid.

    according to rem only "ignorant people" disagree that our grandparents are fish!

    and then the fish prodeced amphibians (like frogs) which later turned into people (like Prince William). Who says a frog can't become a prince! Its soooo scientific . . . its a proven fact you know . . . not to be doubted . . . no faith necessary . . . all smart people know its true . . . wacth out for apostate scientists who don't believe anymore . . . don't read what they say . . . their biased .. . they aren't real scientists even though they may have multiple doctorates . . . I know we'll call them "scientists"

    I think rem was getting at that he understands the theory involved and can come to a logical conclusion based on the evidence we have as of today.

    However rem is open as the "independent" science moves forward to prove or disprove certain theories in science.

    Whereas you, hoob, must stay in "the box" no matter what and believe in what some men (not God) stated as fact wrt to the making of the world a few thousand years ago.

    You must come to conclusions before you conduct your studies. That is not science whatsoever. Whereas "smart" people do the studies first and based on the observations they can come to some logical conclusions and then test the conclusions more and more.

    Like I said before, if you lived a thousand years ago, you would be one of those dudes who would be spewing out of his mouth that the world was flat cause "church men" said so. Or even better you would be one of those guys who believed Jesus healed the sick but "cleansed" the lepers as that wonderful bible of your's tells you (remember you gotta stay inside that box hoob). I won't even go into the other old bible books on the subject. Of course now a days we all know hansen's disease is a bacteriological disease and you need to be treated for it and not "cleansed" or stoned to death!

    Wake up, quit mixing science and faith, and, start properly applying geoscience.

    The new evolution theory is:

    EVEN CARS EVOLVED FROM FISH!! SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE:

    I think the theory about us coming from fish is more like geoscience fiction.

    I think the theory about us coming from fish is more like geoscience fiction.

    Wonderful .... that is your theory. I am not disputing it but n ow try and prove it.

    Review the background information.

    Set up a methodology.

    Test it and make observations.

    Discus the observations

    Then come to the conclusions.

    Make more recommendations for futher studies to test the hypothesis and of course allow a group of peers to review it.

    That's what it's about hoob. Science is not "absolute" unlike your faith. I don't need to have a conclusion before I start. I must understand the background information. I must have a good methodology and good quality control and assurance to get the best observations possible. After I am done then I make my conclusions on my theory.

    See how it's done?

    Please. You were trapped in an organization that told you what to do and kept you in a "box". You are free now. Don't "tie" yourself down to conclusions that were made thousands of years ago before you even look into something. Be willing to learn and test, test, test. Freedom offers you this chance and science offers you the chance to learn how to "critically" test - take it and enjoy what the world actually has to offer.
