    Then we will never know how life started and what we evolved from if you believe we evolved.

    Then again evolution could be part of God's creation plan.

    Then there is no point to science and it can never be credible. That is actually a copout to justify bad science

    Science works on the basis that it can be wrong and yet look at our technology. Not a single piece of it was created based on proof.

    That is spin. Evolution is natural not from man. You can call it that but it is not evolution as most people look at evolution

    You are trying to justify what you can not explain

    Evolution explains the variety present on the earth.

    That is excruciatingly obvious, a little more than "nothing ".

    No one claims that evolution explains everything, it describes a particular phenomena. Just as germ theory describes disease but not the origin of the universe.

    Your supposed argument is a moot point.

    You put in batteries and you get light so you have proof and facts. Science seeks the proof and facts

    What most people think has no bearing on the definition of evolution.

    Evolution is defined as the change in the genetic information of a gene pool over successive generations. It is not a horse giving birth to a frog, or a frog growing up to be a banana, or a cat jumping out of the primordial ooze, etc. Evolution is what SCIENCE defines it as and no amount of whinging and fingers in ears by you will change that.

    No, you have evidence that it was the batteries. It may actually have been a loose connection and putting in different batteries may have forced the connection closed again.

    This is why you are not only ignorant of science but willfully ignorant because you just refuse to learn.

    Science doesn't work on proof, it works on evidence and explanations of the evidence.

    What do you mean by technology give specific examples of what you mean.

    Scientist seek cures foe sickness. When the find a cure they have proof and fact before it is used by doctors

    No evolution means nothing if it is full of time gaps and missing links

    No, they have evidence. Science does not work on proof. Something overlooked may actually be the reason.

    I'm done with you. Ignore list you go. My time on this forum will be better spent than debating with those who just wish to remain willfully ignorant of the simplest of things.

    No it was the batteries because they were dead. You can spin and try to justify but you show me you justify junk science

    Because evolution dethrones humanity. Some people don't want to be dethroned.

    I see you will not show sources or specifics that shows you have nothing but opinions and speculation
