What is the "data" that I keep trying to deny?
BTW, in that video she states outright that the reason she accepts evolution is because of the data -- the data that Dredge keeps trying to deny.

You forgot to mention that the biological sciences as taught at most universities are seriously tainted and distorted by Atheism's preferred creation story ... Darwinism.
Or, better, go to your local university, take a semester of biology, evolution or genetics. When you're done come back here and we'll discuss what you learned.

Everyone knows so-called evangelical so-called churches harbour disproportionate numbers of fruit-cakes and nut-jobs.
Another example of how creationists' and religious fanatics' abject ignorance of science keeps them from understanding the truth comes from a fundamentalist conspiracy theory site from the 90's, Cutting Edge Ministries at http://www.cuttingedge.org/NEWS/n1260.cfm (link broken):

You need similarities to form a nested hierarchy.Taq writes:
In that case, any two organisms could form a nested hierarchy. A bacterium and a human being form a nested hierarchy ... wait, where have I heard that before?
And that's what living species have, similarities.

Where would Darwinism be without its army of liars ?

I'm claiming that the massive gap in morphology and function between pre-C and C biota is not consistent with the theory of evolution.Taq writes:
You're in denial. If huge evolutionary gaps in the fossil record aren't real, explain why dDawkins wrote this: You haven't demonstrated that this gap is real. "Eldredge and Gould certainly would agree that some very important gaps really are due to imperfections in the fossil record. Very big gaps, too. For example the Cambrian strata of rocks, vintage about 600 million years, are the oldest ones in which we find most of the major invertebrate groups. And we find many of them already in an advanced state of evolution, the very first time they appear. It is as though they were just planted there, without any evolutionary history ...My point here is that, when we are talking about gaps of this magnitude, there is no difference whatever in the interpretations of 'punctuationists' and 'gradualists'." (Dawkins, Richard, "The Blind Watchmaker," [1986], Penguin: London, 1991 reprint, p.229-230)

No ... but I once visited an unnatural history museum.
Have you ever been to a natural history museum? If you go you can actually see some of these lacking transitionals.
... just like if I go to Disney Land I can actually see Mickey Mouse.

Not lacking, but, unknown to you.

My new topic proposal is a model for point mutations in neutral DNA, where mutations do not give benefit or disadvantage to the individual.
Next relevant question would be, to estimate what portion of DNA this would apply to. How big of a part of DNA can be considered as "junk" and non-functional, where mutations have no effect to the organism?

You evaded my question ... in other words, you don't know that humans descended from bacteria. So, as usual, you're full of it.

I accept that nested hierarchies exist within phyla.Taq writes:
I neither accept nor deny common ancestry within phyla. Like everyone else, I don't know what happened.
So you accept common ancestry of phyla?Apparently you are unaware of the genetic evidence which forms a nested hierarchy between the phyla.
Genetic evidence can be interpreted as all life forming a nested hierarchy ... or as the Creator using the same biological blueprint to fashion all life ... or both.

[Taq]When someone says that a theory has been proven true it is in the same sense that someone is proven guilty in a court of law.[/qs]
Which scientific theory "has been proven true"?
