Yeah!And do You even know what "evelution" means... it means "made up"! And if we were made from monkeys why arn't they still evolving ??? Anybody got a answer lol!

I'll type slowly for you desiboo,
1 evolution doesn't mean "made up."
2 humans didn't evolve from monkeys.
3 human, monkeys and all other species are still evolving.
"Evelution"? I guess 'evelution' is made up.
I could give you the answer, but I don't think your weak mind could tolerate it.
Oh what the hell. They have no need to move past this stage of evolution, so they won't. Does that make your brain hurt?
1) Spaces after punctuation marks, please.
2) Unless you're addressing your skydaddy, 'you' is not one of the pronouns that takes a capital letter.
3) It's spelt 'evolution'.
4) An ellipsis is not a question mark.
5) 'It' should technically have a capital letter, but we'll let that one slide.
6) 'Arn't' is not a word. You probably mean 'aren't', which is a contraction of 'are not' and therefore has an apostrophe where the removed letters would go.
7) No spaces before punctuation marks, please.
8) One interrogative is enough, isn't it?
9) 'Answer' begins with a vowel, therefore what indefinite article does it take? Hint: it's an indefinite article.
10) "Anybody got a (sic) answer lol" is a question, therefore should end with an interrogative and not a bang.
^^^THIS WAS HARDER THAN REFUTING YOUR ARGUMENTS!

None of these definitions say evolution means "made up".
You know, people have being saying repeating that for over 140 years despite the fact it's been explained to you every time. One day, we're just going snap and murder you. Please stop asking that question.

They are... You are thinking evolving means "getting smarter". When it means improving to fulfil a particular niche. Monkeys are extremely effective at what they do so they remain in their form. Its the same with sharks. They don't need to change much since they are so effective. Evolution is about what works, not what is the best (else we would have wheels not feet). Hence the crazy poisons one sees. The cone snails venom is unnecessarily powerful (enough to kill a man) while hunting on small fish. However it still exists because it kills small fish. If it were designed it would have a venom dose suitable to killing small fish, not unwary divers who have seen a pretty shell.
EVOLUTION DOES'NT WO- Oh, it's T4C? Nevermind, then. They're too thick for any actual knowledge to get through.
I guess that's what happens when you're part of Randy's lunatic cult.
You're right. "Evelution" is made up. Evolution, however, isn't. ;D
Btw, it's already been pointed out, but humans are *still* evolving.
And if we were made from monkeys why arn't they still evolving?
She imagines that evolution is like a conveyor belt, where you get on as a bacterium and get off at the end as a human: fish gradually turn into amphibians, amphibians become reptiles, etc. Even the so-called "creation scientists" sometimes make this mistake, claiming that evolution is disproved by the fact that human and frog DNA are equally different from worm DNA (they imagine that evolution predicts frogs should be closer to worms than humans are) - this is from the creationist "textbook" the Dover, PA Board of Ed. wanted to use.
We have lots of answers, but you obviously didn't take the time to read any of them before posting this.
Why the crap would you think "evolution" meant "made up"?
They are still evolving. It's just not on "our" time-frame, so we don't see it happening.
Also, the word is spelled "evolution," and a dictionary would provide you with its definition.
Monkeys are still evolving, WE are still evolving, if you fundies keep to your side of the gene pool, in a million years you are going to branch off into a separate homo sapiens nonsapiens species, a few thousand years if there is enough inbreeding amongst you.
@xplicit_UK: I'm sorry, but you have made me laugh so damn hard. You win!
Anyways, I think this only person I've seen with such an egregious definition of "evelution." [sic] Most fundies know the definition of "evolution," but because of their idiotic dogma they reject it.
Ahh Randy, I see you're brainwashing them well.
When do you pass out the kool-aid
We do try to post answers, but your precious leader deletes them then bans us.
Try looking at scientific books/sites/magazines some time
{Does anyone else see a fundie mother fainting because she found a copy of Scientific American under her childs mattress }
For the love of Christ! I just went onto that board and I almost puked. Everybody, instead of commenting on this, join the boards and inform. Don't insult but put forth the sensible arguments that you all do so well.
You even know what "evelution" means... it means "made up"!
Yes, you just made it up. "Evolution", OTOH, has a well-defined meaning in science. You fail.
Anybody got a answer
Yes. They're called "scientists". They have lots of answers. But you probably couldn't and wouldn't understand them.
I neither know nor care if monkeys are evolving.
What bothers me is that there is a certain type of human that is regressing. They do this by deliberately suppressing all critical faculties, and opening their minds only to mythologies and taking these as reality. In fact, they are regressing so fast that pretty soon it will be impossible to distinguish them from real monkeys.
because you touch yourself at night LOL!!!!!!1!!one!
Honestly, what makes you think they have stopped?
@ Øyvind: *raises hand* A laugh is not a punctuation.
I got yer answer riiiiight heeeeere, it's a spell checker, a grammar checker, the fact that a whole species doesn't all evolve at once, and that mental retardation keeps you from absorbing any more data on the subject
Monkeys are evolving. Everything is evolving, including humans, it just usually takes many generations for obviously noticeable changes to occur. We can observe changes happening in short-lived species with short generation times like bacteria and insects.
And we have. Evolution has been observed in many strains of bacteria under laboratory conditions, and also in other organisms.
Etymology fail.
Everything is still evolving. Major changes don't happen to a species during a single lifetime.
But if you're talking about "Eeveelution" (is that what you mean by "evelution"?), once you evolve an Eevee, it stays that way. Already got all it's forms in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team (just for the record, I have an utter disdain for 4th gen and up.).
The answer lol is that they are still evolving, idiot, but of course if by "evelution" you mean why don't monkeys turn into people within one generation...
... it's because evolution doesn't fucking work that way. Lol.
"Teens-4-Christ"?
Don't worry, I've seen numerous christian-fundamentalist teenagers blabbering similiar 'provocative' statements.
Usually, its only a phase. Psychologically, this is an important phase on the way towards adulthood.
Most of these teenage christians will be fine when they have reached age 20+, and will look back onto their teenage christian episode with shame and embarrassment.
You couldn't find anything more old and tired, and thoroughly debunked than this one, dearie?
No, I don't know what "evelution" means. I do know what evolution means though, it means adaptation, change over time.
Monkeys and humans are just as evolved, we are both the most adapted to our current niche in Nature, and we are both still evolving, as Nature is still changing.
