I thought this thread was for Darwin related headlines.

It seems there is plenty of recent news.

...and yet, it's still a crocodile! LOL! That is like saying that a Chihuahua looks similar to a Husky, but is not a dog! Many species devolve and become extinct such as this one. One day, Chihuahuas may be extinct too, but that does not mean they are the missing link or some sort of transitional fossil!
ken's middle name must be Oktar...

as I said every fossil is transitional

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)


I suppose that some of the dinosaurs could have had the same kind of circulatory system as a giraffe since they had a similiar neck and fed on the tops of trees. It is pretty difficult, however, to exam soft tissue from something that has been dead for 65 million years unless you can find it frozen in ice.

Here is another question. The "big bang", if indeed that is what happened, has been measured as happening 12-15 BILLION years ago. If God created the big bang, why did he wait so long to create a man and a woman?

The giraffe's neck is not Irreducibly Complex you'd know this if you ever took a biology class from an accredited university

Next he'll trot out the bombadier beetle Roll Eyes

Tru,

Did you read the conclusion of the article that you linked?

"But when a theory survives a century and a half of rigorous scientific skepticism and scrutiny, and is bolstered by mountains upon mountains of experimental evidence -- as the notion of natural selection has, and is -- it may not be the be all and end all of science. But it's a fair bet that the idea, and its creator, are right."

I was wondering the same thing. But, had I asked, he'd have gotten all torqued up at me. Big Grin

So, Ken, these anatomical features are unique to the Giraffe neck?
