A Logical Explanation for the Controversy

The purpose of this thread is to attempt to explain the evolution-creation debate logically, without a presence of bias.It would be highly appreciated if both faith-based and evolution-strict opinions found their place elsewhere.Personally, I believe that macroevolution is false, and microevolution is true. Natural selection and various other Darwinian concepts have been proven repeatedly. I've heard a myriad of opinions and models (most in favor of evolution, might I add).All I request is your unadulterated opinions, right here, right now.Thank you.

Hey New Guy03...welcome to EvC. {im calling you NG3 for short)Basically, are you requesting a thread where you give everyone your opinion? I usually do not release new guys out in the forum with a topic of their own right away. Tell us a bit more details of your philosophy. If you explain it concisely and convincingly, we will give you a shot. Otherwise, browse around the board and drop a few comments in different posts that others have made.This message has been edited by AdminPhat, 05-02-2005 11:29 PM

It appears that the only meat in your OP is to discuss macroevolution.If that is what you wish to discuss I suggest:
1) Review topics where this has been discussed before. You may use the internal search tool to find them. You may also use Google but use the advanced search and restrict the search to this site. It may be that you can simply add to the existing topics.2) If you wish to discuss macroevolution then a better title might be: MacroEvolution -- evidence against or something like that.3) If that is what you wish to discuss a goood opening post would define what you mean by macroevolution (this is both because the orginal use in biology has been shown to occur and because different people and groups who disagree with it define it in many different ways).4) You might then give a few quick points that you believe show that it can't and has not occured. There would be no need to defend all these with evidence until you are asked to do so. But rest assured you will be asked.
