If you wish to go into the animal kingdom, lets start with the always amusing giraffe. What is his lineage?
There is no one transitional fossil, all fossils are transitional. Your statement is false, your demand is false, your specious rhetoric is designed, as usual, to promote a falsehood.

Let's see...I am not afraid to examine every species.
The giraffe is my kids favorite. Giraffes grow up to 18' tall...right? Now, to pump blood to that brain way up there at the end of that long neck, the giraffe would have to have an incredible heart. How about a heart that is almost two feet long?! It works quite well! But what happpens when the giraffe bends over to get a drink of water? His head explodes from the blood pressure! Well, it would, but the giraffe has dozens of little pressure valves in its neck that regulate the flow of blood in relation to the position of the neck. Hmmm...so what happens if a lion attacks the giraffe while he is drinking? The giraffe jumps up and has a sudden 'head rush' from lack of blood and passes out, and then gets eaten. No...for some strange reason, the giraffe has a bladder at the base of the brain that retains blood just in case of the event such as the lion attack. The blood in this bladder is ready to rise to the occasion so to speak.
Now I ask you...how did this evolve? What did it evolve from? What is the fossil record that proves that this giraffe could have existed at all without having been spontaneously created? Every part of the giraffes circulatory system is dependent upon the entire system to work.
"In the beginning, God..." makes more sense and takes less faith to believe than the silly evolutionary theory of "the giraffe creatied itself through millions of years of mutations". Especially since there is absolutely no evidence in all of science that anything was ever evolved from nothing! LOL!
Comments? If not, choose a beast!
(In full disclosure, I admit that I took the boys to the zoo last week, and we learned all about giraffes and other cool animals)

How is it possible that a grown man can post with a straight face that there are no transitional fossils?
BTW...are you referring to me when you say that my wife is a school board member? My wife is active in a lot of clubs and activities, but has never been a school board member! Obama's movie was never considered for viewing at our school as far as I know.

Sorry, but that is all unprovable theory and...should I say it?...'faith' in what you wish to be true. I need real evidence rather than some pipe dream of a desperate scientific 'theory'. What say we just step back, think for ourselves, and use some common sense. In other words, go with what is proven...go with what is real...
BTW...where did 'primordial ooze' come from? LOL!
After all, in order for there to be DNA according to junk...I mean 'some' scientists, there must be primordial soup...right?

Sorry, as you said here
..."Hey Enid! Kokomo forum is gone, so I thought that I would give a shout out to the remnant who are left!
This is such a crucial issue, that I have been spreading the news to all parents of school children.
My wife is the PFO (PTA;PTO) president of our local school system. She called the principle and verified that Obama will be speaking to the kids by video next week. September 8 is the target day, but our school will be doing it by class for a couple of days. This was not taken before the PTO OR the school board! It is a backdoor effort for Obama to indoctrinate young children pre-K through 12!
Please read the link, and tell everyone you know. Time is ticking to inform parents of what is happening.
This is really not unprecedented. A certain leader of Germany a generation ago also went after the children when his popularity was waning...and we all know how that all worked out!..."
She is/was president of the PTO. I shall correct my post. President of PTO, thinks a black president should not encourage students to stay in school, and believes creationism, that is a sorry state of affairs. BBL to thrash you but I've got birthday party duty for the next generation at the moment.

"In the beginning, God..." makes more sense and takes less faith to believe than the silly evolutionary theory of "the giraffe creatied itself through millions of years of mutations".actually the FACT of eveolution is easier to believe than some mystical being creating everything and man following it blindly for all these years..the earth is over 4.5 billion years old so how do you explain a few thousand years of religious dogma as being the so called correct method based upon some crazy theory of creation..your missing more than 4 billion years Especially since there is absolutely no evidence in all of science that anything was ever evolved from nothing!the entire natural history is the record.... i ask where the proof is of the creation theory dogma besides some book written by man claiming to have spoken to some supreeme being... LOL!
it wont be long before evolution removes man from the earth so it realy dosent matter what man thinks in the long haul..it might be 1000 years or 1 million years or a billion years or more but it will be by evolution not by some second comming of some supreme being who hasnt had its 1st comming yet.

Kenlori, I want you to know that I try. When Jean and the kids at the school tell me that I'm supposed to control my violent temper, and be passive and nonviolent like they are, I try. I really try. Though when I see these people here of such a beautiful spirit... being so mislead and confused... and this little girl, who is so special to us we call her "GlitterBootyGirl" and I think of the number of years that she's going to have to carry in her memory... the idiocy of these absurd creationist claims of yours... I just go BERSERK!
Sorry, I was channeling Billy Jack.
Here's the deal, Ken, in the end the issue comes down to which model better explains the evidence at hand, including embryology, molecular biology, comparative physiology, bio stratification (why are no mammals native to Hawaii?), fossil record, cosmology, and geology. The evolutionary model, or the "God did it" model? Remember that there are a very small number of Christian Fundamentalists concentrated in a very limited area of the United States (Southeast and Mid-East) who espouse Biblical Creationism and reject reality. Evolution happened and is happening. The evidence is overwhelming.

What makes more sense? An organism gradually changes in response to it's enviroment and over time, certain mutations occur which send that particular form down a different path of development
OR
A being that has no beginning or end and is responsible for everything waves his mighty omnipotent hand and creates the earth and then life from that earth. Then, in an attempt to have more beings like him, he creates a human(Already had some spare DNA left over from the apes). THEN...he decides to give the guy a mate so he rips a rib from the man and creates woman. Even though humans were supposed to be "in the image of God", he forgot to give the woman godly power over one of his other creations...Lucifer who is smarter and more powerful than these hairless apes that are supposed to be the image of the creator. The woman sins, gets the ol' boy to do the same and all of a sudden....we get WalMart and Haliburton! OK...I skipped a couple of steps but you get my idear!

Just when the story was getting interesting you skipped some steps. How about the rest of the story as Paul Harvey used to say?

I have a question for those on both sides of the argument.
Could it be that there truely is a higher power, God or The Great Spirit or however one wishes to refer to it. And, that higher power did create the univers and all it contains. But, caused it to be done through something like the Big Bang and the evolutionary process and all the other processes we refer to as scientific.
I know what the Bible says and all that. But, the Bible was written by men. wasn't that just simple minds trying to answer the most complex question humans have ever pondered?
As limited as our knowledge is today it is tremendous compared to the knowledge of those times. The writers of those ancient books had no concept of many of the things we undersatnd, at least a little of, now.
