How Coke Evolved From a Rock...

Elora said:
Mammals evolved from a group of reptiles called the synapsids. These reptiles arose during the Pennsylvanian Period (310 to 275 million years ago). A branch of the synapsids called the therapsids appeared by the middle of the Permian Period (275 to 225 million years ago). It was over millions of years that some of these therapsids would evolve many features that would later be associated with mammals.

It's impossible to know from which of the reptiles the first mammals evolved. The hallmarks of today's mammals - hair, warm blood and milk-producing glands - do not fossilize. We know that some dinosaurs, such as the Stegosaurus and Dimetrodon, supported large plates or sails of skin, developed to function as solar panels, absorbing the sun's heat for quick mobilization. However, during the period of dinosaurs, some of the sail-backed pelycosaurs (which includes the Dimetrodon) lost their sails. Even acknowledging a warming period ensued, it would be improbable that such an effective heating mechanism would be lost through evolution unless a more efficient method of heat control had evolved to replace it. It is therefore reasonable to supposed that the pelycosaurs and their successors, the therapsids, were to some degree endothermic. The therapsids, being only three feet long, would need some form of body insulation if it was to be effective. Thus, it is reasonable to conclude that some of these creatures were covered in hair, or fur.

Don’t know if you know this, but some random dudes blog is not a peer-reviewed scientific journal either.

Indeed. Here is an actual science article discussing the basics of evolution.

How many articles do you need? There are plenty of them out there that say basically the same thing...

Mammal fossils of the same time, about 180 million years ago in the late Triassic or early Jurassic periods, were found last year on the Navajo reservation in Arizona by Dr. Farish A. Jenkins Jr., also of Harvard. The Mammals' Ancestor

These first mammals, it is now widely believed, evolved from a single line of therapsids. Thrinaxodon, though a revealing example of the evolutionary process, apparently died off before crossing the boundary from reptile to mammal. According to recent findings, the therapsid that seems to be closest to the direct ancestry of the mammals is a small, advanced carnivore known as probai@no@g@nathus, fossils of which are dated from 190 million to 195 million years.

Are you trying to argue for or against evolution?

"Billions of years ago, a big bang produced a large rock. As the rock cooled, sweet brown liquid formed on its surface. As time passed, aluminum formed itself into a can, a lid and a tab. Millions of years later, red and white paint fell from the sky, and formed itself into the words 'Coca Cola…12 fluid ounces.'”(1)

Of course, this is absurd. No one believes Coke evolved from a rock. Yet most people believe that the far more complex plants, animals, and humans evolved without planning or Planner.

To believe in a chance beginning to the universe, we need to ignore the obvious.

“For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.” Romans 1:20

In order to deny the truth of creation, "scoffers" have developed the sophisticated but foolish theories of evolution (2 Peter 3:3-5; 1 Corinithians 1:20).

If someone makes you feel stupid because you don’t agree with them about evolution, rest in God’s wisdom and take a glance out the window at the ubiquitous* proof for INTELLIGENT design.

Intelligent design? Historically (before modern medicine and scientific advancements) nearly half of all humans died before the age of 15. Nearly half. And those that did make it in to adulthood had the joys of dealing with infections, viruses or just pain from their poorly designed teeth.

Don't call it intelligent design when I could make it an absurdly better design if given 5 minutes of god-like abilities.

The New York Times is not a peer reviewed scientific journal. Also, the article you linked to is from 1996.

Seriously, how can you fail this hard?

Through dozens to hundreds of intermediate species that didn’t clearly fall into reptile or mammal classifications clearly.

You leave that part out every time.

Just wait until she tells you that things like carbon dating are unreliable or straight-up false, and that dinosaur fossils (all fossils dating back past the biblical beginning 6000 years ago) were put in the ground by Satan to deceive man.

It's a hoot.

Intelligent design is disproven by looking at the male prostate.

Oh sure I believe a monkey strong as hell de-evolved into a hairless weak creature who gets the mate.


Where in nature do we see weak males getting the mate and producing offspring?


Only liberals evolved from the monkey family tree.


Conservatives was created.

Coke is not alive. Dead things don't evolve. Take your ridiculous analogy and insert it into your font of eternal darkness.
Humans did not evolve from apes or monkeys. Darwin posited that humans and their hominid forebears share a common ancestor with apes. There's a huge difference. Modern DNA tracking proves Darwin correct. Have a nice day.

No scientist claims “a reptile evolved into a mammal”. You are lying about Evolution.

Since you are unapologetically bearing false witness, that makes you a “Fake Christian” doesn’t it?

If they understood evolution, they'd understand why no one's ever 'observed a species evolve into another species.' That comment alone is one of the stupidest ever.

Wrong wording. Science HAS observed a species evolving into another species. That’s speciation and there are multiple confirmed events of it.

What science hasn’t observed and Evolution doesn’t claim is that a species from one family/order/genus evolved into a species from an entirely different family/order/genus.

Creationists keep demanding scientists produce a Crocoduck, but Evolution actually says such a thing should be impossible.
 
If god created humans, he at the same time created human-specific pubic lice, and why the hell would he do that?
