If evolution is not a theory why did:

[rightwinger]

A fact is a fact.

A theory is a theory.

Evolution is a theory, not a fact.

End of story.

Evolution is a fact...it occurs
The only theories involve the mechanism of evolution

God is a theory......a theory unsupported by scientific evidence

I could claim that the universe is evidence of God. You may not accept it......

I could claim it is evidence of magical elves and I would have as much scientific validity

If you're claiming everything gradually evolved from something else, over millions of years, there should be thousands of "in between" fossils for every species. Where are they? Or are you now changing your position and claiming they just went "poof" and changed into something else overnight? Which is it?

The chances of something becoming fossilized are very small.

How convenient.

Yeah satan buried the fossils to trick us

But your friend said there weren't any.

No he didn't. But you don't really care do you.

And who here ever said that Satan buried the fossils to trick us?

Where do we get all this fossil fuel from, then

You can teach yourself the difference between micro and macro, but not where we get fossil fuel?

Tell me, when a scientist discovers a dinosaur bone, do you think that can be turned into gasoline?

I was told that it's rare that anything is fossilized. Who specified bones?

That's what he was talking about. It is very rare for bones to fossilize. For example, Dinosaurs ruled the world for 150 million years, but we only know of 300 or so different species. We have incomplete skeletons of about 30 T-Rex's. Do you think that only 30 T-Rex's existed?

There's as much evidence for that as there is for creationism.

Don't dodge the question.

Lots of people have said it. They're all nutjobs of course. I mean they believe in creationism for fucks sake. Just google "Satan buried dinosaur fossils" and see for yourself.

Here's an article from just 2 months ago by a total nutjob claiming Dinosaurs are a hoax:
The Atlantean Conspiracy: Dinosaur Hoax - Dinosaurs Never Existed!

No, evolution over millions of years

Ok, now we're back to "millions of years". You'll say just about anything, won't you?

Yeah rightwinger remember we have to prove evolution to him in a way that fits into a 6,000 year timescale

Lol on a 6,000 year time scale? That's ridiculous. Plus if you don't trust carbon dating and believe that a great flood mixed all the fossils around in the ground to make them look older than 6,000 years (as all young Earth creationists must) then there's really no point in talking to you anymore.

Why did Jesus give men nipples?

What was he thinking?

Hmm what if God buried the dinosaur bones as a game?
