Timlamb you are so right on everything you have posted. I totally agree with you, you can find evidence for anything that you want to believe. Is evolution a fact? Was my gre----at grand-dad an ape? Why are there still apes? I just wanna know if I wait 1 million years will my toyota turn into a merecedes? Is there a way to speed this up? Am I being smart? Nope. I think it all comes down to a heart matter, and what you want. I believe that if you want truth, you will find it. By the way, how can I make my pet rock, come alive? non-living matter into living matter. Why is this so simple for a child. but so hard for the super-educated? I used to make things fit my lifestyle, I do not do that anymore, and I have really been shown alot since then. I am not attacking anyone here, just making a point which I am sure is useless. Oh yeah I am educated if that is what you want to call it. May God open all of our eyes....michael

"I just wanna know if I wait 1 million years will my toyota turn into a merecedes?...By the way, how can I make my pet rock, come alive? non-living matter into living matter."A lot is two words! How hard is it to add that space after the A?
Was my gre----at grand-dad an ape? Why are there still apes?
Their opposable thumbs, dexterity, large brains, omniverous diet, structured societies and gregarious nature make them quite a successful life form.

"you can find evidence for anything that you want to believe."
'Oh yeah I am educated if that is what you want to call it.'
I just wanna know if I wait 1 million years will my toyota turn into a merecedes? Is there a way to speed this up?
Yes, there is. It is called eugenetics, or selective breeding. You get either that or genetic modification.
Am I being smart? Nope.
Oh, you allready answered this one.
By the way, how can I make my pet rock, come alive?
Lots of XTC.
So many stupid questions.
"Oh yeah I am educated if that is what you want to call it."
"Anytime you got too much, you got a whole lot. I'll explain.
Am I being smart? Nope.
@whitewater55
Grade 10 does not "educated" make, dipshit.
Was my gre----at grand-dad an ape? Why are there still apes? "I believe that if you want truth, you will find it." and then procedes to show he hasn't made the faintest attempt to understand what he's rejecting. How can he find the truth without examining the alternatives?
He says he's "making a point which I am sure is useless". Well, it's useless, alright; but that's because he hasn't made a point: he doesn't understand the basics of what he's criticizing. He's like a guy who tries to break into a conversion about football without actually knowing anything about the game.

Why are there still apes?
Why are there still apes? I just wanna know if I wait 1 million years will my toyota turn into a merecedes?
Ah yes, this damn analogy again.
Cars do not reproduce themselves. They do not have a mechanism for inheriting changes to the blueprints. In other words, they do not share the two characteristics of living organisms that make evolution of living organisms possible. As such, the analogy fails.
Am I being smart? Nope.
Ding ding ding! We have a winner!
I believe that if you want truth, you will find it.
So do I. The trouble is that you do not seem to want it.
Oh yeah I am educated if that is what you want to call it.
In your case, I wouldn't call it that.
I totally agree with you, you can find evidence for anything that you want to believe. Yes, but that is why we distinguish between objective evidence and subjective evidence. Science deals with the former. Religion deals with the latter.Is evolution a fact? Yes
Was my gre----at grand-dad an ape? Presumably, yes. Unless, of course, you are not human, nor any other species of ape.
Why are there still apes? Well, the apes only diversified about 20 million years ago, and there just haven't been that many mass extinctions since then. It's been a pretty good time to be an ape.
I just wanna know if I wait 1 million years will my toyota turn into a merecedes? I doubt it. I doubt that either toyota or mercedes will exist in one million years. Nor is there any known mechanism by which this might happen other than recycling.
Is there a way to speed this up?
Sure. Take your toyota to a scrapyard, and get it melted down into raw materials, then take those to mercedes, and tell them you want them to build you a car out of them. I'll warn you; they'll probably want a large sum of money to do a custom job like that.
Am I being smart? Nope. I'll say.
I think it all comes down to a heart matter, and what you want. Yes, I'm sure that's how you make decisions. Some of us, however, use our brains, since they are much better suited to decision making (though rather less well-suited to pumping blood).
I believe that if you want truth, you will find it.
So... fundies don't want truth? I believe it.
By the way, how can I make my pet rock, come alive? non-living matter into living matter. LSD, DMT, Mescaline, AMT... there are lots of ways. They only last between 15 minutes and a couple days, though. You may find you need to re-dose whenever you want your pet rock to come alive.
Why is this so simple for a child. but so hard for the super-educated? Why is what so hard for the super-educated? Believing ridiculous things? Because they know better, and it's hard to unlearn things.
I used to make things fit my lifestyle, I do not do that anymore, and I have really been shown alot since then. Appearantly, none of the things you were shown included the fact that "a lot" is two words.
I am not attacking anyone here, just making a point which I am sure is useless. Indeed.
Oh yeah I am educated if that is what you want to call it. I don't want to call it educated, because that is not the correct word. The correct word there could be a lot of things, but I'm leaning towards "ignorant".
Idiot, you _ARE_ an ape!A bizarre form of a very weird offshoot of the main ape line,but you, and every other human on the planet is an ape!
Is evolution a fact?
Yes.
Was my gre----at grand-dad an ape?
Humans are still apes. But we split from the chimpanzee line about six million years ago so you'd need to add a few more greats.
Why are there still apes?
Because different populations evolve in different ways.
I just wanna know if I wait 1 million years will my toyota turn into a merecedes?
No, because cars do not reproduce and reproduction is key to evolution.
Is there a way to speed this up?
Your car evolving? No, for the reasons stated above. If you mean evolution generally, probably not.
Am I being smart?
Not especially.
how can I make my pet rock, come alive? non-living matter into living matter.
We don't know yet but that has nothing to do with evolution anyway. That's a different field of study called abiogenesis. If you want to say that God created the first life on this planet, that's fine.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
