Why do evolution supporters accept twaddle like this?
Yeh, we are so similar to Kangaroos, (2 eys, 2 ears, 1 nose, a tail, a pouch)
They seem to make it up as they go along!

First, you must think everyone is a moron to think that evolutionists claim we are like kangaroos because they have a tail and a pouch. The only person making things up here is you. Second, evolution does not work that way. If you don't understand evolution, that's fine, but don't go posting bullshit like this to let everyone know what a dumb fuck you are.
Well, we do have four-chambered hearts, fur, are warm-blooded, bear live young, metabolize oxygen, mammary glands, sweat glands...
True, 'roos are marsupials while we are placentals, but the similarities as compared to a worm, crab, bee etc are rather striking.
@The Lazy One:
Typical journo science reporting. Scientists put the last common ancestor between us and the roos at about 150 MYA, that's about twice as long ago as the last common ancestor between us and rats.
This is later than expected based on our similarity with the genome of the opossum, so we are maybe slightly more recently related to the roos than other marsupials.
Except our tail has been downgraded to a tailbone, and the pouch was their idea.
Other than that, we do share the same basic skeletal / muscular layout with most other animals.
Oh, of course. We were obviously made out of mud, spit and divine breath. Well, half of us were; the othe half were an afterthought assembled from the bones of mud, spit and divine breath. That makes so much more sense.
Why do creationists accept twaddle like this?
Yeh, insects deffinately have four legs (one, two, three, four, five, six...)
They seem to make it up as they go along!
Fixed.
@GreenEyedLilo
Not to mention, their kicks can kill a man.
You should come to Australia and visit Pebble Beach sometime. There's a whole herd of them, and they just bounce up and eat right out of your hand,
We do have a tail, vestigial though it is, and a pouch, but ours is internal because we aren't marsupials, you fucking twit.
Well Chris... I don't know what your mommy or daddy told you but it's not a pouch, it's a sack and you will not have a good time if you try to stick any furry animals in it, or anything else for that matter.
Fucking homeschoolers!
I called my mom today and asked her why I didn't get a pouch, it would have been so cool...
She said that the blueprints she had for me and my brother came from the Advanced People Emporium (APE), a very respectable but slightly conservative organization that does not like uncalled-for bells and whistles such as the pouch (or the tail, come to mention it). All their current products are market-proven and have successfully undergone extremely long tests that guarantee robustness and long life expectancy.
There was, in fact, a competing organization, the General Operative Development (GOD) that promised a much faster time-to-market for new products (even six days for whole universes) and was known to be much less constrained in adding new features, but she did not trust it very much: first of all, she could not find a phone number for the main offices, and although all the different outlets she found claimed to have exclusivity, yet they were inconsistent in their messages and very aggressive in their marketing. And second, she did not trust the material for the product, since blown dirt seemed to her a little fragile, and she was afraid it could get runny in rainy weather.
Maybe you could tell us your experience.
1. We have two eyes, two ears, 1 nose.
The TV show I watched when I was about 4 was hosted by something that looked vaguely human, but called himself Captain Kangaroo. So, yes, we are like kangaroos. Besides the 70s kids' show, there's the spinal column, warm blood.
@Scion:
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
