[QUOTE="JD8, post: 3103394, member: 24"] If what you said was true there would be no slavery "rules" in the bible, nor would it have existed within countries where christianity was the predominant religion. But that's not reality now is it? To be sure, nobody is changing the rules of evolution, again, you're just misrepresenting the concept to try to mold it into your belief, or disbelief. It's a common practice to create strawman arguments by creationists and it seems that's what we have here. The man rising up and walking from an ape graphic you is a false and common misrepresentation you see put forth by creationists. Evolutionary theory is a very complex subject that involves much more than just what Darwin said. Nonetheless, genetic change does happen on a daily basis, and there are several variables that account for the several mechanisms that are described in evolutionary theory. There is a whole spectrum of possibilities ranging from speciation to simple changes within a species. Finally, I'm not talking down on your education as a whole, just this subject. If you are going to admittedly correct people and throw out a lot of coulda, shoulda, woulda ou there then it's plausible that I would expect an amount of background on the subject. On the flipside, I fully admit my lack of extensive education in the Bible. I can only go on the exact words written and take them literally, which in many cases that's what I was told to do by those allegedly in the know. That tends to waiver though. [/QUOTE]
