Show me ONE scientific fact that supports the theory of evolution.

Here is the definition of a fact.


 
 
 
Definition of fact

3
:  the quality of being actual :  actuality a question of fact hinges on evidence
4
a :  something that has actual existence space exploration is now a fact
b :  an actual occurrence prove the fact of damage
5
:  a piece of information presented as having objective reality These are the hard facts of the case.
in fact
:  in truth He looks younger, but in fact, he is 60 years old.

Now, let's see if anyone can present any of these so-called facts.

Given that the term "scientific fact" is an oxymoron, I'd imagine it'd be pretty difficult to come up with one that supports Darwinian Evolution.

Not true. It is a scientific fact that objects that are heavier than air fall when dropped in a gravity well. There are many more observable facts.

Science is the development of explanations for observed phenomena (hypotheses), and the testing of said explanations for their validity. As such, it is incapable of irrefutably proving a claim. Thus, the term "scientific fact" is an oxymoron.

Observable "facts" and science are not equivalent. The former are observed phenomena (hence the term), while the latter is an explanation for the former.

Side: Can't think of any.

There are no proofs of Evolution. It's a theory monopolized by the Secular part of the West and pushed at all costs. Now they have to cover up, and slide all things that counter it or make it look stupid under the rug. Darwinism has become a cult.

Side: Can't think of any.

So then the Theory of Evolution says that a species will continue to evolve to meet it surroundings. Then tell me why a species evolved into a human that had to kill other apes and animals to take the fur to protect themselves from the elements when they had that to start with ?

Side: Can't think of any.

In reality, there are absolutely no scientific facts to support the theory of evolution. Try to prove me wrong.

Are you talking about the myth that this proves that humans once had tails? For your information the coccyx is essential for our ability to remain upright. Take a look at how many muscles are attached to it, including the stomach muscles. Without it, we could not stand upright. You also wouldn't be able to take a shit without it.

Making the claim that some species evolved from others, because they are similar is not science. It is supposition. Nothing more.

But, the alternative is way more ridiculous. All of the species that are similar to each other existed at the same time, but only formed fossils in an order that leads to the transition from one to the other.

That would be like asking a blind man what he thinks of that beautiful sunset. I have never seen one "fact" of ANY kind that PROVES a god exists. So, you believe what you think, I'll believe what I wish to believe. We'll have no problem as long as you don't expect me to live by your rules ... meaning don't try to make LAWS that are against the separation of church and state.

People believe in Santa Claus, I have no problem with that, I remember when I did. Santa only ASKED that we be good, he never forced anything on us, he never was the cause of hate, or a war, there was never a fight about whether he was Santa or St. Nicholas. The religious have fought about their "no facts god" for centuries. I don't believe in Santa any more, but if I did, that's the kind of "god" I could follow, not one that evokes hate because he left nothing but confusion for his "supporters". The theory of evolution causes no wars, the theory of a god always has.

You gave the answer to your own question. Had EVERY point needed to be spelled out for those who can't understand what something MEANS, the Constitution would have had to be a larger BOOK, not a few pages or a pamphlet. The INTENTION of that sentence was further clarified (You know, "clarified"? That which every word spoken by THIS President has to go through, either within the hour or certainly by the next press conference!) Anyway, the man known as "The Father of our Constitution" James Madison, explained it this way for those with little understanding.

"The purpose of the separation of church and state" (certainly showing intent), "is to keep, forever from these shores, the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe in blood for centuries."

Today, he would probably include places like the middle east where religions "soak the soil" in blood, and have for centuries! Religion and politics mix like oil and water, THEY knew this from their own experience with The Church of England, the Vatican and other religious groups! You can NOT have a free country under ANY religious rule! Never has happened, never will!

Another founding father saw religion as to dangerous to rule when he said: "We discover, in the Gospels, a groundwork of vulgar ignorance, of things impossible, of superstition, fanaticism and fabrication." [Thomas Jefferson], Obviously, (to those of us who have the freedom to understand .... unencumbered by a religion), few of the founding fathers wanted that kind of influence in the government after what they had gone through in Europe and Britain. Capeesh?? (Pardon my Italian spelling).

Not really. Changing from a bacteria into... a bacteria isn't Darwinian Theory. Wasps (trapped in amber) didn't evolve over "hundreds of millions of years".

Bacteria do not evolve. The reason they become resistant is because they have lost the ability to ingest whatever worked on them before. So, it's actually devolution. They have, literally, lost the abilty to do something that they could do before. That is NOT evolution.

Are you referring to those fossils that still had soft tissue in them? LOL! Some of the excuses atheists come up with to dispute that. It's hilarious! My favourite is when they say that Iron in the blood preserved them for all those MILLIONS of years. Like, anyone with a brain is going to believe that. The simple fact remains that soft tissue cannot last for millions of years. It's a scientific impossibility.

Belief in evolution is required for absolutely no scientific endeavor, it is completely useless and unnecessary for biology and is counter-productive to advancement of science as it teaches students and proponents to waste so much time trying to twist interpretation of data to fit belief in evolution.

Evolutionary belief often calls for a halt of scientific inquiry by declaring things such as "junk DNA or "vestigial traits" to be "proofs" of evolution. Thankfully, groups of scientists both atheistic/evolutionary and theistic and even born-again Bible believing Christians worked together studying what was so long called "junk DNA" and began to get some understanding of the function of what the mainstream educational system preferred to be ignorant of once they declared "junk DNA" proves evolution.

Evolution is anti-scientific as it is a philosophical/religious belief system which is not supported by real science but rather is contradicted in all points by real science.

Bacteria adaptations are simply the survival of the fittest, not darwinism. In tests of this nature, the original bacteria that was killed off comes back and becomes the survivor. That's a full proof that it isn't darwinism. It's a species variation, like short vs tall people. If only tall people could survive an environment, the only survivors would be tall. But short people would come back and in another environment condusive to being short, only short people would survive. Still humans in both cases.

Let me ask this, more for curiosity. What is the purpose of the Appendix, the wisdom tooth, the tail bone and any other vestiges in human anatomy? Why would a completely flightless bird have wings?

They are part of the body we no longer use, we have evolved beyond their original purpose. Or do you have another idea on that.

There are no such things as vestigial organs. Just like there is no junk DNA. These are lies, promoted by those who are trying to shore up a hopeless 'theory'. But since you asked, I'll answer one of those. The appendix plays an important role in digestion. If someone has a high fever, it can kill off the bacteria in their digestive tract. The appendix has a back-up supply of these bacteria, that is released once the fever has passed. There you go. You learned something new today.
