    The egg. Birds evolved from reptiles that had been laying eggs for millions of years before chickens came along. Each step along the evolutionary ladder was born from an egg until it eventually led to chickens.

    Yep, it doesn't have to have been a chicken that laid the egg for one to come out of it.

    Then does this theory explain the existence of Humpty Dumpty?

    Again egg as reptiles evolved from amphibians. Amphibians in turn evolved from fish which also laid eggs. You've got to go back a hell of a long way before you take eggs out of the chickens' ancestry.

    Is that true..?
    Despite the fact that no facts have ever been produced making the "Theory of Evolution" the "Fact of Evolution", many people still blindly cling to it since they do not believe in creation and feel it is the best and only thing they have to go on.....

    "In common usage the word theory implies something that is unsubstantiated, but that is not the case in science. "

    Are I see....proof without actually having to prove it then...

    Tell you what, next time you need medication or surgery etc, refuse it on the grounds its effectiveness is based on a 'theory' not 'fact'.

    P1ssing myself at the creationist talking about other people blindly clinging to things and dismissing evolution for "lack of proof."

    No belief is neutral...when you believe something, you make it true for you...

    Belief might not be neutral or objective, but facts and evidence are.

    Perception is a mirror not a fact, and what you look on, is your state of mind..reflected outward.
