"Since observable evolutionary changes occur over thousands of generations, perhaps the new and improved species that replaces current humans will have developed a wider pelvis. The hubris of thinking humans are the beginning and the end of life on this planet is astonishing."
Observable? You were there then, right? The thinking that an '86 Trans Am is actually a transitional automobile between the Fiero and the Lamborghini is just as ludicrous as the so-called fossil record.
"I wasn't there, but the fossils that seem to confuse you tell the story. Having your nose stuck in your book of fairy tales seems to keep you from understanding how science works."
So the Fiero evolved into the Lamborghini then right? After all that's what the evidence shows exactly like the fossils you are blathering on about. Funny how you religious evolutionist zealots use the same playbook over and over. We have the "you don't understand", then we have "why don't you read a science book", the ever popular attempted shot-in-the-dark hack on the beliefs of others (like you use), and so on. It is really sad how much bandwidth is used up without one shred of proof anything ever "evolved".

So apparently, Oboehner thinks that Lamborghini is a specific [whatever the individual "species" of cars are called], rather than a manufacturer/brand? Even on topics where I know less than nothing about myself, his ignorance is blatant. Wow.
[whatever the individual "species" of cars are called]
"Kinds".
And since Fieros did not evolve into Lamborghinis,
any more than a junk yard evolved into a 747,
that "proves" god made them. Like a watch lying on
a beach; it could only be there if god made it and
put it there.

I'm not sure who really snapped the watchmaker argument with a logic bomb first but I think I heard it from Hitch first.
"Why would you think the watch was different since you say everything has been made by God and that the sand it lays in is just as complex?"
In other words a devote believer would have to think everything they think is complicated has to be made by their God while an atheist lives in the real world.
"without one shred of proof anything ever "evolved""
Ah, yes, pity the poor nylon-eating bacteria, starving for millenia until humans invented nylon for it to eat.
You were there then, right?
something something you weren't there for genesis 1:1-2:3 either something something
The thinking that an '86 Trans Am is actually a transitional automobile between the Fiero and the Lamborghini is just as ludicrous as the so-called fossil record.
Yes, that is indeed a completely ludicrous comparison because you're comparing manufactured, non-living things to animal life.
We have the "you don't understand", then we have "why don't you read a science book", the ever popular attempted shot-in-the-dark hack on the beliefs of others (like you use), and so on.
As opposed to fundies, who have the "you're being tricked by Satan", the "why don't you read the Bible?" and, when all else fails, the baseless conspiracy theories because obviously the poor Christians are so persecuted in modern America bawwww
Lamborghini
...what? Countach? Diablo? Murcielago? Gallardo? Reventon? Aventador? Centenario?
And unless Pontiac bought out Lamborghini, Audi wouldn't probably have something to say about that, as they'd be laughing too hard at your lack of facts : because Pontiac ceased to exist several years ago.
Why don't you read a Haynes Manual , o Boner? At least they contain far more facts than your BuyBull: and they've even published a manual* on the Klingon B'Rel-class Bird of Prey, you petaQ !

And he fixed up a Lamborghini Urraco in an edition of "Wheeler Dealers".

Boner here probably thinks the most recent series of "Knight Rider" with it's Shelby Cobra-based Knight Industries 3000 - with it's nanotech enhancements, which means it can change it's shape - is a documentary.
We were there, yes. Thousands of generations of bacteria or insects might just take months or a few years.
Cars don't reproduce sexually, so no, they didn't evolved in that sense.
Technical things are d-e-v-e-l-o-p-e-d , dearie.
Yeah, we have the "why don't you educate yourself?" and then the "why don't you educate yourself?" and then the "why don't you educate yourself?" and then the "why don't you educate yourself?"...
We have much less prof that anything ever travelled over the bandwith, nitwit.
But these are legitimate questions.
Why DON'T you understand? Is it because science involves math and it's just too hard?
Why DON'T you study peer-reviewed studies and provide cogent refutations of points of disagreement? Takes too much time? Too technical?
Why DON'T you take the time to learn about reliability of dating technologies? Too science-y?
Don't be dismissive. You want to consider yourself part of the science community and take part in the discussion? Then join the club by meeting the standards the others have met, and following the rules.
Observable? You were there then, right?
Dr. Lenski was.
Evolution, chapter absol-bloomin'-lutely one.
You are the transitional form between your parents and your children. Your parents are the transitional form between you and your grandparents. Every now and then a part of DNA is copied with a mistake in it, and then the mistake is passed down to the next generation.
If it's a useful mistake, it is kept and transmitted. If it's a harmful mistake, a person may die before having children, or the children may be born with a handicap. Thus harmful mistakes tend to be eliminated and good mistakes are kept.
Repeat, and repeat, and repeat for a few million times.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
