"There is a grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being evolved." (OOS, 6th Edition, 1872) - Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882)
This Forum is new to me, so I'd like to make an offer here I've made in several dozen Forums on the Internet over they 15 or more years I've been active.
Creationists and ID proponents constantly tell us that evolution is impossible and is not a valid theory. They deny all the classic and well evidenced examples of evolution which science has produced, especially from the fossil record, my specialty.
Take any group of modern mammals you wish - horses, whales, cats, dogs, giraffes and so forth, and let's discuss the nature of the evidence for the evolution of those animals. We can discuss it fossil by fossil, and the Creationist or ID proponent can show me where my interpretations of the fossil record are incorrect, and, more important, what their better explanation of the fossil record would be.
Any takers?
