    Maybe aliens wouldn't see us naked apes as the rulers of the world.

    The vid is from a creationist film by a man called Ben Stein. It's called Expelled.
    He answers a question about hypothetically finding evidence for intelligent design and offers that as a possibility, in that event.

    What evolutionary stuff does he base on what he believes, rather than evidence?

    Yes, he did. I don't know why you're denying it, to be honest.
    It's the opening section. It's quite short.

    it is short shame you dont seem to have listened to it all or as per made **** up

    you said:

    "When was the last time someone questioned evolution?"... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand you're done. <doh>
    People question evolution all the time. He's in America, FFS

    what he said was

    "when was the last time somebody questioned evolution, do you know?" THAT was the question ''do you know?''

    he continues

    ''in your experience? any numbers?''

    then continues

    ''i'm just trying to say how often it happens, somebody questioning such a major theory as evolution''

    somebody in the crowd then says something and he continues

    ''good, thats good, you are aware of that. Some people dont even know its a theory and its debated and take it as a fact like gravity''

    not quite your twist is it?

    well unless he or anyone else has witnessed evolution beginning to end or have fossils without gaps etc then there is a belief without evidence. finches and moths dont cut it

    You think that's twisting it? He's saying that it's just a theory that many people don't even know is questioned.
    That he tries to contrast it with another theory just makes it even more stupid.
    The audience don't give him the exact response that he wants, which his "I'm just trying to say", gives away.

    It doesn't matter, the rapture kicks in on September the 23rd 2017. As Bob Marley prophesied, just read it in revelations 12. FACT

    Have your bible open at Revelations 12, and watch this from 17 minutes in.

    Yes yes

    Leap of faith

    Show me the complete fossil record

    Show me video or pictures of a dinosaur becoming a chicken

    Oh yeah you can't

    We are at this point again.
    Are you arguing that dinosaurs didn't become birds?
    Because there is almost complete consensus these days amongst the experts in the field of Paleontology that that is what happened, as well as biologists.
    Who knew Alan Grant from Jurassic Park was ahead of the game :) When Crichton wrote Jurassic Park, the whole dinosaur/bird evolution theory was seen as crackpot. Not now <laugh>

    You missed the point

    I want a complete fossil record or pictures of it happening. Video would be best.

    However what you assert as complete consensus is not true, its a contentious topic in evolutionary biology and hotly disputed

    This thread should be stickied until September 24th. Sounds like there'll be a lot to discuss on that day.

    Or maybe not.

    I'll swap you a real time video of lifeforms evolving, for a real time video of your god. <ok>

    Do you apply the same burden of proof to each?

    You don't know what a theory is.
    And this proves that you don't understand evolution at all, despite claiming to accept parts of it.
    You're just parroting crap that you've read elsewhere. You get told something and you accept it.
