Not at all.

The evolution debate is far from settled.

There is an appalling lack of transitional forms that would be needed to lend credibility to the theory.

You don't need every transitional form of every species to see evidence of evolution.

So you're using a lack of evidence to disprove my belief but when I say you have no evidence what happens?

That's exactly my point in my previous post. No true scientist will tell you it's settled. They will say that the evidence found points to that truth creating a theory. Religion doesn't allow this. It's their way or the highway based on a man written book of stories.....not one shred of evidence to support the "truth".

And what happens to the evidence that points to something other than the accepted theory?

Cannot respond to the rest because you have not said what truth you are talking about.

If you're truly interested in the evidence, you can start here. I'm not going to claim to know, nor look up, every single piece of evolutionary study that's been conducted. That's a silly question Michael.

The theory adapts. Something that religion can't and never will do. Well, the Catholic religion is a different story.

Your truth. What's stated in the Bible....right?

Not silly at all. The burden of proof is on you.

A little reading for you.

Evolution Theory Lacks True Transitional Forms

Are there transitional forms: creature to creature?

We could play website swap all night but I'm more interested in what you believe and why.

I will say it again. Truth is perception. If you PERCIEVE it as true then its true for YOU. Some say Obama is Muslim. Where is the TRUTH in that? There is no truth it is just hype. But if you WANT to believe and PERCEIVE it is as fact. Then it is truth for you. For you to be "Muslim" do you not have to practice the faith? A name does not constitute a belief ina religion. But many here actually believe he is a Muslim. Why because it is their FAITH in Rush Limbaugh that brings them to this "FACT". Lets see believe the worlds most indepth financial mind (Warran Buffet) One of the world Top Military leaders of our (my) time. Colin Powell or a Vicadin abusing who obtain the drugs in a criminal fashion (Rush Limbaugh)....Some say the choice is easy, yet others see it differently....

I love the site swapping crap. I can find a website that states John McCain is Really Marilyn Monroe with an operation. Come on, quoting websites does not make it FACT. Tell me about what you have seen. Many dislike Muslims. Have you sat with them, seen them with their family, observed them with your own eyes? Ate with them? Probably not, yet you "KNOW" so much about them. How is that so? That my friends is the classic definition of PREJUDICE.

Absolutely not.

Look up the definition of Truth

It is not relative it simply is what is.

We cannot each have our own truth for one must be a lie.
