Humans Are Still EVOLVING

again another theory... kung kinsa to gaingon dakog skull ang primitive nga taw, unsaon nimo pag-explain ang size ni broc lesnar...? or the tallest man? carbon dating has its flaws...

Those are exceptions to the rule. Look up:

Acromegaly - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gigantism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Exceptions cannot be the rule.

1. First, please read this entry:

Radiocarbon dating - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

2. Next, tell me exactly which section, in this entry, has this supposed "flaw", and do be specific and use proper scientific terminology to explain it, and then, paraphrase those explanations into something that a layman can understand.

If you can do that, then perhaps you can indeed convince people reading this thread, that radiocarbon dating has flaws. Otherwise, your argument doesn't hold water.

quite outdated but it will do -- Carbon dating accuracy: what are the flaws of carbon dating?

now regarding Gigantism, how do you know that, what was uncovered and claimed to be a predecessor of man is not just some freak mutation?

Can we consider homo and bi sexuality a manifestation of human evolution?

transhumanism perhaps?

You don't have to rely on carbon, there's the rubidium-strontium dating which relies on the decay of rubidium-87 to strontium-87. Rubidium-87 has a half-life of 50 million years (the amount of time for half its mass to decay into strontium). Using this together with other radioactivity decay dating methods is more reliable than just using one. It's like making sure you have a flashlight and candles in the house, in case of brownouts.

Because there are many of those uncovered--if there was only one, then I would doubt it myself. The more examples are uncovered, statistics would indicate that the probably of something being true will increase.

old people thought there giants , but it was simply a dinousaur femur bones...

jumpiong to conclusion is easy for them..

while for chinese these dinosaur bones are dragon .. which is a myth,..

fyi

before humans learned to domnesticate animals. there are some of the change physical apperance.

wolf - diferent breed of dogs. (there were only wolf before, dogs dint exist)
carp - gold fish (theres no gold fish bfore , only carp)
wild hog - pig (breed of pigs to create a much dilicious pork meat.)
native chicken - bantres ( it only takes a month for it grow)

it also apllies to plants...

Just FYI, breeding is artificial selection (because the path that a mutation takes is dictated by a human being), not the natural selection that occurs in the wild, which is the primary mover of evolution.

ya right, since even if they mutated physically they can still interbreed. And was just several thousand years ago.

evolution in natural selection takes million of years.

how many? if there were indeed an evolution happening we could see not 10 but a thousand perhaps of intermediate kind... also, there are abnormalities passed on to children and that might be the case of what they uncovered... now let me guess... they found 2 or 3 of each kind?

^ do u really think , evolution didnt happen...

that everything was created in just 6 days... including mountains of fossils in different specie.. thrugh time.

ur bible says earth is 6000 yrs,
in the grand canyon , it takes 20,000 yrs for each inch to be created,...

its 10 billion yrs
the universe is 14 b yrs old.

creationists tend to discredit FACTS to fit their own foolish ideals.
