More Strong Evidence for Evolution: Anatomical Vestiges


Again, no it does not. Ancestors of snakes are not snakes.
 

Evolution is a theory and a joke. I am not going to study something that they even admit is a theory.

yea yea how is cursing something a curse if nothings changes? makes no sense .

I don't think you understand what a scientific theory is.

Gravity, technically, is a theory. So is plate tectonics.
 
Should i trust people that think we came from apes?

Humans didn't come from apes. Humans and apes share a common ancestor. You really don't know anything about evolutionary theory, do you?

Must be they changed what they teach huh? back when i was in the indoctrination centers known as schools they taught the theory of evolution and that humans came from apes.

have they changed it already? how can they change something they claim to be fact? Oh wait reminds me of global warming, climate change bleh bleh bleh.

They no longer teach this above picture?
 

They never taught me the above picture, or that humans came from apes. Maybe you just went to a terrible school, I dunno.

That's the great thing about science, you don't have to trust people, or anything. All you have to do is look at the evidence and you can see the truth for yourself. Though, this only works if you are willing.
 
Should i trust people that think we came from apes?

No, but it doesn't matter. That means nothing changes from you because no one who accepts evolution and understands it thinks that and only dumb creationist use that line but don't think it either. Therefore you've excluded no one.
 
*Sigh*

Those are pictures of the stages of human evolution. A more accurate picture of primate evolution would be something like this:





And one reason for that is that you clearly don't know anything about it.


Oh look its the "new" evolutionary tree hmmmm what was wrong with the old one?

The "old" one showed the path of human evolution, which gives people who don't comprehend evolution the idea that apes turn into humans, which isn't how evolution works at all. The "new" one shows the evolution of various types of primates from common ancestors. This is not particularly difficult to understand.

Here's one for reptiles, since you're so hung up on snakes:

 

So a lizard tempted Eve?
 
So a lizard tempted Eve?

The desire to decide right and wrong for oneself tempted Eve. Same as Lucifer. The whole deal is about establishing God's sovereignty.
 

Flying animals glided first. Flying is an improvement on gliding.

Dogs alone prove the MECHANISM of evolution exists.
 
So a lizard tempted Eve?

No the serpent did but it according to science had legs at the time. Then God cursed the SNAKE and things changed.

NO. NO IT DID NOT. Serpents *never* had legs. Serpents' ancestors did.

Snakes' ancestors are not snakes.
 

The "skeletal vestiges" show you EXACTLY how birds evolved -- from species of avian dinosaurs. The split between flying and non-flying animals came long before birds, as we know them, existed.

"How does that translate from being on the ground to being an aerial species, when evolution takes millions of years?"

The overall development DID take millions of years. That's the difference between macroevolution and microevolution.

Piltdown Man- The “Piltdown “ skull was first “ discovered” in England in1912 by Charles Dawson. For Forty –one years it was leading evidence for evolution until in 1953 it was discovered to be a forgery . It was actually found to be a recent human skull combined with a female orangutan jaw, and was dyed and slightly modified to give it the appearance of age. It’s interesting to note how all textbooks before 1953 showed Piltdown man in every human’s family tree, then one day it was no longer “true”. The British Museum has documented other discoveries by Dawson as forgeries as well.

Piltdown Man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Piltdown Man was a paleoanthropological hoax in which bone fragments were presented as the fossilised remains of a previously unknown early human. These fragments consisted of parts of a skull and jawbone, said to have been collected in 1912 from a gravel pit at Piltdown, East Sussex, England. The Latin name Eoanthropus dawsoni ("Dawson's dawn-man", after the collector Charles Dawson) was given to the specimen. The significance of the specimen remained the subject of controversy until it was exposed in 1953 as a forgery, consisting of the lower jawbone of an orangutan deliberately combined with the cranium of a fully developed modern human.
