Does anyone believe in Evolution anymore?

The Barbarian

Do we have a count of how many times he's used that particular fallacy?

Which is why the OP is "Does anyone believe in Evolution anymore?"

He can't help himself. Like most creationists, he thinks popularity is a measure of how right an idea is.

In this case, even that misconception backfires on him; as more and more evidence accumulates, fewer and fewer people buy into creationism.

But as you've learned here, it's the evidence that determines the issue.

And he loses there, too. But it's always fun watching creationists play the "let's vote on the truth" game.

Then talk about the evidence. :up:

Darwinists love it when the discussion is over how many people believe their religion.

They think it's evidence.

From OP:
It seems that the more we learn as scientific and archaeological finds come to light...

That's the reason given for the assertion that Darwinism is on the wane. Hardly an appeal to popularity.

Guess what. Barbarian can't even characterize OP correctly.

It would be difficult to defend this embarrassment by claiming that the call to examine the evidence was hidden in a long post; it was the first line.

It seems that this is just another example of Barbarian's unshakable dishonesty.

I honestly don't even thing Barbarian made it past the title, let alone the first line...

And after that, he just scanned the post for the popularity claims and left it at that.

Just because you don't like what he says doesn't make him a troll.
He knows his facts. But you prefer to insist that the earth is flat

Chair quotes hisself, apparently accusing hisself of flat-Eartherism. :chuckle:

Hey, Chair! Wake us up when you're ready to discuss the topic. :up:

Hint: It isn't "The Barbarian fan thread."

When you take off your blinders and can deal with the actual facts of the case. I'm not holding my breath- as long as you view "Evolution" as a threat to your faith, you will not be able to discuss it rationally.

Apolipoprotein AI-Milano
Heart disease is one of the scourges of industrialized countries. It's the legacy of an evolutionary past which programmed us to crave energy-dense fats, once a rare and valuable source of calories, now a source of clogged arteries. But there's evidence that evolution has the potential to deal with it.

All humans have a gene for a protein called Apolipoprotein AI, which is part of the system that transports cholesterol through the bloodstream. Apo-AI is one of the HDLs, already known to be beneficial because they remove cholesterol from artery walls. But a small community in Italy is known to have a mutant version of this protein, named Apolipoprotein AI-Milano, or Apo-AIM for short. Apo-AIM is even more effective than Apo-AI at removing cholesterol from cells and dissolving arterial plaques, and additionally functions as an antioxidant, preventing some of the damage from inflammation that normally occurs in arteriosclerosis. People with the Apo-AIM gene have significantly lower levels of risk than the general population for heart attack and stroke, and pharmaceutical companies are looking into marketing an artificial version of the protein as a cardioprotective drug.


how does an evolutionist figure Apo-AIM is new to them
rather than something we all had and lost except them ?

Do you have any idea of what the theory of evolution is about? I mean a real idea- not what you've been fed by the Anti Evolution crowd.
