(after being shown ten proofs of evolution)
Sorry, I must have missed it again. Silly me.
Please, take your time. No need to keep rushing to reply. It's just the origin of all things we're talking about. Might take more than 8 minutes to research?! You think?
"We have lots and lots and lots of fossils of species that don’t exist anymore. Lots and lots and lots of them in just the superorder Dinsosauria alone" !? Hee, hee! There's our PROOF (!?) folks!

"Where exactly did you prove EVOLUTION? Where was your explanation of how the universe began? How life started?"
TLT means, of course, the Fundiespeak meaning of "evolution": The idea that life, the universe and everything came into existence by blind, random chance out of nothing. God didn't do any creating, because there is no God!
But he was shown proofs of "evolution" in the Standardspeak meaning: How life forms have developed and diversified SINCE life arose. How the universe began and how life started belong to other areas of science.
"How the universe began" and "how life started" has to do with evolution exactly the same way that "Changing the transmission in my car" and "How to replace the engine" has to do with your biblical creation story.
Sorry, I must have missed it again. Silly me.
Please, take your time. No need to keep rushing to reply. It's just changing my transmission that we're talking about. Might take more than 8 minutes to research?! You think?
"We have lots and lots and lots of bible verses that prove the bible is true! Lots and lots and lots of them in just Genesis alone!" Hee, hee! There's our PROOF (!?) folks!
Where was your explanation of how the universe began?
Why, is the universe a species?
Hee, hee! There's our PROOF (!?) folks!
Fossils are petrified remains, just like the things that turn up at archaeological sites. I presume, then, you treat Biblical archaeology with the same skepticism.
Look, you petulant little child.
Species long dead that aren't like todays species, none of todays species are found in those deep layers, as you go deeper they become scarcer and simpler.
Change over time and YES, We have the fossils, and the experts, thousands, we win, Evolution is proven.
When your only stand is to absolutely deny the significance of actual evidence, then you can't expect to be taken seriously anymore.
You can shake you TOTALLY unsubstantiated error ridden Bible over your head as much as you want. YOU HAVE NOTHING.
You want the condensed, send-in-three-box-tops just-add-water version. Sorry, but advanced degrees are not so easily obtained. You might actually have to do some of the homework to comprehend it. Come back in about a dozen years and ask us after you've laid a foundation.
Abiogenesis has less to do with evolution than Greek mythology has to do with the theory of relativity.
@nazani14: I remember a fundie on IMDb back in 2011 who said TalkOrigins was "full of lies and half-truths" (or something like that), but couldn't name any examples when asked.
You are literally too stupid to live, Chump. I'm not speaking hyperbolically, either. I mean there may actually come a day when you just forget to breath, pass out and die.
People like this asshole are why I imagine trying to prove anything vaguely scientific to a creationist is kind of a sneak-peak of what hell must be like - even if you manage to give them exactly what they ask for, they just stumble for a bit and then claim, with no justification, that the proof "didn't count" somehow (that "somehow" most often being that they didn't understand exactly what they were asking for in the first place because apparently "evolution" is every science). There's no way to win an argument with someone so dedicated to being willfully ignorant that he comes off as a fucking retard. All you can do is get away soon as possible and hope he doesn't trumpet his overwhelming stupidity as a "victory".
Where was your explanation of how the universe began? How life started?
If you knew as much about evolution as you think you do, you'd know that evolutionary theory doesn't discuss such things.
... and cosmic background radiation, and the rate of universal expansion, and the abiogenisis experiments that have proven successful, and the process of microevolution we've observed for over a century, and ...
If you need more, I can keep going. And by the time I finish, someone will be adding more to the pile. And that's just with my limited interdisciplinary studies I did out of boredom (astrophysics, particle physics, biology, biochemistry, organic chemistry, energy physics... you know, varied and oft unrelated fields). Can't you just accept that the creation was allegorical/metaphorical rather than literal? I figured this out before I understood multiplication...
Where was your explanation of how the universe began?
You're conflating "cosmology" with "abiogenesis" again...
How life started?
...right along with "chemistry."
"We have lots and lots and lots of fossils of species that don’t exist anymore. Lots and lots and lots of them in just the superorder Dinsosauria alone" !? Hee, hee! There's our PROOF (!?) folks!
And those fossils demonstrate change over time. That living things don't remain static.
In other words they show that populations of living things evolved over time.
Evolution is about adaptation of EXISTING life, silly-dilly. It has nothing to do with the beginning of the Universe, or how life started.
You have lots and lots and lots of air between your ears, and lots and lots and lots of pompous deluded pride.
It's been said before but listening to this babble really brings home the fundamental truth of the saying:
"Arguing with Fundies is like playing chess with a Pigeon. All they do is knock over all the pieces, shit on the chessboard and then strut off convinced that they've won".
Prime example here.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
