What is a fossil? It's a second-hand source. How do you know that fossils came from animals? Did you see the animals, and then watch as their fossils were made after they died? No, you didn't. You believe that fossils represent animals that lived a long time ago.

Again, nobody's answered this; occam's razor states that "given two predictable theories, choose the simpler". Which is simpler; 1) that there is a missing link that has yet to be found or 2) that some being that we have no trace, or evidence, or remains exists that kickstarted everything including all the stories postulated in the Bible ?



Are you trying to argue that the theory of evolution is simpler than believing in God? You and others like you constantly talk the simple-mindedness of people with faith, yet here you're saying their views are more complex. I'm confused.

Occam's Razor works fine for you with the assumption that there is no evidence of God. I (and billions of other people) would argue that our existence itself is evidence of God. That's what having faith is. If you think your ability (or lack thereof) to argue this matter comes from nothing more than DNA, then God bless you.

Southern United States

Do you not know which one Nebraska is? I'm originally from Wisconsin, which is even more non-southern.
