For years I've been told that I'm not going to find a creature that's half dog and half monkey to link the two together because that's not how evolution works. Evolution is suppose to be so gradual that it's either all dog or all monkey. Now, you're telling me that something that's half monkey and half dog is evidence of evolution?
I said that I hoped you were joking because this
is the evidence for evolution. I would like to point out that this animal is not half monkey and half dog as you mistakenly pointed out; it shares both mammilian and reptilic characteristics. Please keep that in mind.
You should also know that your claim
...so gradual that it's either all dog or all monkey
is completely false. This would be totally irrelevant evidence, as well as misguided.
Gradual (note word choice) results in many transitional forms such as (bluntly- not canon/fact) 0.25 fish/0.75 mammal; 0.5 fish/0.5 mammal; 0.75 fish/0.25 mammal and so on. The whole point is that evolution works
slowly, something that you don't seem to be getting.
This is why most scientists don't believe in evolution and now an increasing number of scientists are turning toward the bible for truth.
Contrary to your beliefs, 95% of all scientists hold evolution to be true.
Beliefs of the U.S. public about evolution and creation
I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.

I'm a polyatheist - there are many gods I don't believe in
