Ah, I know what you mean. Now to the question who or what caused evolution. *reaches down to scratch* I have no idea but *starts eating a bannana* but I sure as hell didn't come from any... *begins to swing from the rafters and make monkey sounds*

@Word: The "cause" or the mechanisms regarding human evolution, are discussed in the thread "Evolution - true or false". I suggest you take a look there if you haven't already. I have posted there about evolution in general, and I'm preparing new posts about the issue.
@Fable: What about "No evolution in Evolution on SYM"?
@MM, Aegis and Word: LOL
That's the amino acid sequences forming RNA you're transcripting, eh?

Here is what caused evolution.
Darwin studied animals, noticed the differences between animals in different parts of the world, then came up with a theory. Voila! Evolution was born(or at least, modern evolutionary theorem).
Now, the biggest fallacy with the question "What is the cause of evoluton" is the assumption that evolution is true. Evolution is a theory, not a fact.
In theory, certain 'ingrediants' combine at just the right time at just the right tempature at just the right speed at just the right everything to become something more complex. In theory, this kept happening, eventually leading to the development of homo sapiens.
There are numerous flaws and fallacies within the theorem. If I get bored enough to read the other evolution topic, I might post about the flaws and fallacies there, but it definitely won't be tonight.

Evolution is a theory and a fact, it consists of 3 parts, as I posted in the other thread.
Or maybe you don't believe either in the fossile record or the molecular genetics?

I am not a creationist, nor am I an evolutionist. I find that these titles are fit only for the extremists of both sides. Unlike an evolutionist, I do not believe in evolution. Unlike a creationist, I do not believe that all discoveries that the theory of evolution has led to are wrongOriginally posted by C Elegans:

The geologic column is true if you take out evolution and compare it with the creation account in Genesis(looking at the 6 days of creation as figurative for longer amounts of time, which some of us do), you'll find it coordinates perfectly. I might post a comparison in that other topic.
As I said, I might post in the other evolution post, but I might not. Once I get on the evolution/creation soapbox, it is nearly impossible to get me off of it(to the dismay of many teaches I have had). I have very strong opinions on the subject, but they are also considered highly contraversial as they do conform to neither creationism nor evolutionism. Rather, they contain some of both, but I am not a Theistic Evolutionist(?).

In general, humans are rather stubborn. We have trouble moving away from contraversial topics because we tend to have a desire to make everyone believe as we do. While the informing others of our own beliefs and conclusions is good, we need to be careful to not force our beliefs upon others, of course.Originally posted by Darkpoet:
<STRONG>Hmmmmm, the way these threads keep coming up. It looks like we are degressing back to evolution, instead of progressing away from it.</STRONG>

saturn, no offense but your signature is VERY long...when you post multiple times in a thread, you could uncheck the box that says "show signature" so that your signature would not always show...that way people trying to read through would not have to scroll past it so many times.
May you walk on warrrrm sannd....

No one else has complained about it, and I have to scroll past is just as many times as everyone else. As far as I can tell, you're the only person it seems to bother.Originally posted by THE JAKER:
