Some years ago, Father William A. Williams ha written a book named "Evolution of Man Scientifically disproved". I'd try to discuss the follies of this book as epigrammatically as possible, and if you want to read every fact in detail with illustrations, you can always check out the above said forum.
Below is the summary of the summary of the introduction of this book I had made earlier
Succinct Summary of the introduction of Evo. Of Man disproved
This book is designed,
(1) As an up-to-date text book, and a companion to all other text books on evolution; and
(2) As an antidote to books in libraries teaching evolution, infidelity and atheism.
Let it be understood, at the outset, that every proved theory of science is to be accepted. Only the most intense prejudice and the maddest folly would lead any one to reject the proved conclusions of science. Every theory to which mathematics can be applied will be proved or disproved by this acid test.
Any scientific theory or hypothesis must be proved first possible, then probable, then certain. To be a possible theory, it must be reconcilable with many facts; to be a probable theory, it must be reconcilable with many more; to be a certain and proven theory, it must be reconcilable with all the facts. Every true theory passes through these three stages,--possibility, probability, and certainty.
All the arguments against evolution in general are valid against the evolution of man. There are many other arguments, that prove the evolution of man impossible, even if the evolution of plants and animals can be proved possible.
Even if every argument in this book were invalid, save one, that one valid argument would overthrow evolution, since every true theory must be reconcilable with all the facts (Note how Father is reacting to the authenticity of his own facts. Guilty conscience – Added by The Winster). One irreconcilable fact is sufficient to overthrow evolution.
The evolution of man is not only a guess, but a very wild one; and it is totally unsupported by any convincing (!) arguments. It can be mathematically demonstrated to be an impossible theory.

Hey take it easy man. The intelligent discussion is still alive well in the "Life" forum. And if you consider three letter word story a spam, i'll stop it. I never intended to do so...
I am just using the forums as they are used generally by others. If you say ElRobin spammed by posting his 5000+ replies thread, i'd stop posting all these funny (and a bit clumsy) games.

duh
When you first arrive, you ream off these extended articles disproving something trying to disprove something else, intending to spark some kind of intelligent discussion.
And now you're spamming up the place with "three letter story!1 omg!11' and "three fings about us!1" topics.
Strike for the middle ground at least.

First this ... now three letter stories?
I'd post it soon.

That is because, man never evolve from the apes. They are not our forefathers but our cousins. We an the apes and the monkeys evolved from ancestors like Homo erectus or something like that. I'll come to that later when I have to prove one more arguement of Father wrong

See, you've mistaken the arguements. What evolution says is that life has developed from a primordial germ. It has nothing to do with the origin of life. The reason why we mess it up with Creationism is that the theory of evolution defies the Biblical explanations that life appeared as it is.
> Also note that the mechanism for evolution is random mutation
Er, I am extremely confused at this point. The reason is that I've not come across any aricle or essay that says so. If only you could explain it here, or post a link (or something) to any article that says that...
(I am looking forward to one)
-------------------------------------------------------
For everyone who argue evolution is absurd, I want to summarize all my arguements into a few lines
Evolution may fail to explain certain things convincingly, but we have to accept that evolution is logical. After all, evolution is a long term name for adaptation. Now don't tell me that adaptation is impossible.

Yes of course, I accept it is true. But then, if you consider one thing you'll soon find out that when you appreciate a person, you're not appreciating his achievements but his efforts.
See, anyone who takes a logical and arguementive approach to things can end up with a good "Pros & Cons" type of essay. But see the subordinate adjective clause object to the noun "anyone". It says anyone, who takes a logical and arguementive approach... I hope you understood what I meant to say.
And when it comes to writing an essay in hours, you are correct there. But the thing is that nobody takes hours in writing essays. When somebody does, its only because he wants convincing arguements and a total interpretation of his thoughts.
Anyways, I like anyone appreciating my work, and at the same time anyone who says where it lacks (not plain criticism though), since there is no commercial aspect in these essays. I may understand that you (Mercutio), are capable of doing the same and thus the remark. I am saying this because I feel the same emotions when somebody appreciates a person for a work which I could have done in a much better way.

Hey thanks for your comments. I am also happy to know that my works are getting the same type of comments from everywhere. However I don't understand why you didn't suggested for it to be more succinct.
> I wouldnt mind having someone intelligent on msn to talk with.
Er, let me tell you, if you are reffering to me in the sentence above, that I o not log onto MSN or Yahoo Messenger so often. I would download Yahoo Messenger when I get permission from my parents to log onto the net for a long session.
Here is my email id though, [email protected]
