Well, in that case, we can ignore the theory of gravitiational attraction then!
Here is a HUGE secret of the English Language: Words can have different meaning depending on context!
Cleave can mean to cut apart OR bring together.
In the case of science, Theory means an oversimplification of a set of phenomena. The Theory of Relativity explains that time is based on relative position and curves like gravity dues around planets.
In the words of Stephen Hawking, the world's smartest man and prominent authority on quantum mechanics said in his book, a brief history of time ""A theory is a good theory if it satisfies two requirements: It must accurately describe a large class of observations on the basis of a model that contains only a few arbitrary elements, and it must make definite predictions about the results of future observations." He goes on to state, "Any physical theory is always provisional, in the sense that it is only a hypothesis; you can never prove it. No matter how many times the results of experiments agree with some theory, you can never be sure that the next time the result will not contradict the theory. On the other hand, you can disprove a theory by finding even a single observation that disagrees with the predictions of the theory." The "unprovable but falsifiable" nature of theories is a necessary consequence of using inductive logic."
Here is what happens
Palestine shoots rockets at unarmed civilians from hospitals and the like
Israel naturally responds by bombing the fuck out of Palestine
Palestine gets butt hurt and claims it is being abused.
Want to stop Israel from bombing Palestine? STOP SHOOTING ROCKETS INTO ISRAEL THEN PALESTINE!
The reason is simple. First, Palestine is suffering a terminal case of self induced butthurt, which the Muslim Middle east picks up on, because hey, it's not terrorism if it is in the name of Allah!
Not too mention that Israel is the home of Jersualem, which holds holy places for jewish, christian and muslim believers. (if you ask me, if they just nuked the city, the middle east might settle down for once).
Throw in the fact that America supports Israel and you start to get the picture.

Hell, Cali's Prop 14 was a prime example of this. The courts ruled a state constution can not supersede the federal government, even if it was added due to the consutition by populace vote.

Perhaps you should study actual theories and laws as opposed to the propaganda you've been fed by evolutionists who don't actually study the theory but do preach their belief in it like a door to door Jehovah's witness.
Law, mathematical model of theory. See Law of gravitational attraction
If anyone should be offended, it is me. You are, put simply, a dumbass. Your head is so full of shit, you don't realize what utter nonsense you spew as "fact". The fact you site expelled as evidence shows just how badly you understand evolution.
Your constant idiocy is rather staggering, because I can not fathom how you fail to understand that natural selection is an element of evolution. Odds are, 500 years ago, you would be telling me the sun goes around the earth.
What you fail to understand is, Obama positioned himself like Clinton did. Obama has been vocal about comprise, extending the olive branch, asking Cantor if he would continue tax breaks for corporate jets, etc. If the government defaults, all Obama has to do is point at the GOP and say "Hey, I tried to compromise, they stonewalled."
If you pull your head out of your ass, you would realize this is a win win for Obama. If the Republicans don't raise taxes, Obama will veto any proposal they put forth. And since they lack the 2/3rds majority to override it, it will fail.
If the government defaults, the GOP will be blamed. If the GOP, after all their vocal ravings do raise the debt ceiling and taxes, they look like hypocrites.
It wasn't pictures, it was youtube vids.
As for Expelled, that is pure hogwash, a propaganda piece funded by the christian right. It is light on facts and is mostly a "poor oppressed Creationists" movie. Read a review of it and you will find just how much bullshit ben stien spewed.
As for changing species, Evolution doesn't work that way. Over time, two variants of a species slowly differ enough to be classified as separate. Like how a dog is different then a wolf.
As for beneficial mutations, I already pointed out sickle cell anemia. How about bacteria developing a resistance to various antibiotics?
Or how about being Lactose tolerant? Normally, after age 2, humans become lactose interolerant due to us no longer needing to drink breast milk. However, since milk is full of nutrients, those who can drink it are healthier. Hence, why two different gene mutations, one for europeans, and in east africa, a cattle herding area.
emerged in africa around 3,000 years ago
Next, it's not just genes, it's also methyl groups. It is what turns genes on and off.
DNA methylation
As for Haeckle, those charts are real. Ask any doctor and they will tell you that yes, human fetuses have gills and a tail.

from what I've seen the Dems want to raise taxes, without cutting entitlements and republicans want to cut entitlements without raising taxes.
don't let the media blind you to what is really going on, both sides want a win for their party, to make the other cave in and give them what they want. If we default, its the fault of both sides.
Tax rate is at the lowest it's ever been, which has strangled the governments ability to raise revenue. The GOP refuses to raise taxes and only wants spending cuts in certain programs (Despite them, you know, raising the defense budget by a couple billion).
The Dems don't want slash more then they already have (Education for example, has been cut to the bone, yet the GOP refuses to give up tax breaks for oil companies), without having taxes raised.
Either way, if the government shuts down, it will be on the GOP's head.
Let's be honest, the real reason the GOP and tea party hate Obama is because he is a well spoken, black man with a funny name.
Where to start?
1. The sheer amount of evidence presented, on top of the fact that the only other "theory" presented as an alternative to evolution is some form of "God did it" from the religious groups, not too mention that every credible biologist agrees that evolution does in fact occur and can be demonstrated.
2. Evolution is change over time through genetics in one of 4 ways: Natural selection, genetic drift, genetic flow and mutation. You yourself have shown belief in mutation, natural selection.
3. Your explanations for the age of the world is, put simply, half assed. You claims of how the earth changes through natural disaster fails to take into the fact that geologists know the difference between a flood that happened last year and a flood that happened 2 billion years ago in the soil record.
4. Your disdain for macro evolition is puzzling. Maco evolution is simply micro evolution over a long period of time.
6.Evolution of the human skull
7. The reason for my abusiveness is simple, you are arguing the equivalent of the geocentric theory of the universe. Despite all the evidence, you refuse to believe the obvious.

Oh yah this may be as good as time as any other that one of the events that probably inspired the Holocaust was when Germany performed genocide on Africans in I think German South Eastern Africa, a doctor during this performed loads of crazy experiments on captured Africans, he would then go home and teach at a German university where he would get a student named Josef Mengele.
Dude, Jews have been fucked over all throughout history, from the times of the romes to the modern day. And in your own words, Africa lacks skilled workers. I bet in 100 years, Africa will still be in the shitter, despite all foreign aid sent in. Face it, be it innate or otherwise, africa will always fail.

Once again you're taking preexisting genetic trait that simply changed in frequency as a result of different environmental circumstance. As I stated before that is natural selection which does not equal evolution. Even the case of E coli is more likely to be a result of contamination than mutation. Most of the changes have been displayed in all 12 cultures which indicates that those were already part of the E coli DNA when the experiment began. Those few changes that only showed up in one or two cultures could easily be the result of a mistake as all of the traits new to E coli are common in other forms of bacteria.
Umm, dear dipshit, that is the definition of evolution. Evolution,is the change over time in one or more inherited traits found in populations of organisms.
As for the Ecoli, honestly, your explanation is bullshit. It was an observed mutation and you simply don't want to admit it.

Also, FSM is satire.
Okay, let's be honest, which do you think teens are going to do if given the chance?

A more simple example is the Peppered moth of london.
the details
the TLDR; verison goes like this:
In London, pre industrial revolutions, the peppered moth population was 99.99% white, with 0.001% black. After the industrial revolution, the smog and coal dust stained the city black. In the span of only a couple decades, the evolutionary selecteed trait of being black was favored, causing a paradigm shift, of nearly 1000% of the black peppered moth population.
Species: Peppered moth
Trait selected for: Dark coloring
Cause:Soot made the white moth stand out.
Result, over the span of several decades, the population of white to black reversed itself.

2. Stratigraphy is used to date things in the millions and billons of years.The Earth is constantly forming new layers in a rotation. Magma rises through cracks, pockets, and vents forming a new layer on or near the surface forcing previous layers down deforming the nearby layers and pushing the lower ones into the liquid core of the planet. There are also new layers that form near the bottom layers deforming those above them. Stratigraphy is about as useful for measuring the age of the Earth as glaciers are for measuring and predicting climate change as they both form layers by similar principles and methods resulting in similar deformations.
3. You fail geology and minerology. Diamonds require intense amounts of heat and pressure over time to form. A flood can not form a diamond. Seriously, the people who don't believe in evolution don't do their research. Saying evolution is wrong is like saying the geocentric solar system model is right. Despite all evidence (and believe me, there are tons of it), you seem to think you know a basic fact of biology is wrong.Have you ever heard of the Washington scarlands? They were formed by flooding lakes which sent millions of gallons of water (that much water would hit any substance with massive amounts of pressure) flowing with a high enough velocity to literally rip open the ground and hurl boulders miles away (large amount of material+high velocity+frictional forces=heat) scarring the land it flowed through (hence the name scarlands). Do your research, there are plenty of natural disasters that create large amounts of heat and pressure in extremely short periods of time sometimes even producing materials harder than diamonds. It isn't unheard of and it happens in seconds as opposed to the millions of years that these materials supposedly take to form.
DO YOUR RESEARCH!If that were true everyone would believe in evolution.
I mean seriously, with a petri dish and bacteria, I can prove evolution to you.
1. Carbon dating is used on organic items, dinosaur bones are dated with radiometric dating of other elements.
2. Those natural disasters leave distinct geological footprints. As for diamonds, the pressure and heat required are immense, due to the fact that diamonds occur only at a certain triple point when the heat, and since Diamonds are a crystalline structure, it takes time for them to grow.
3. Stratigraphy can tell the difference between new rock and old rock. Go talk to a geologist, or you could just look it up in wikipedia and see just how wrong you are.
All the things you claim "distort" the timeline are accounted for by the scientists who spend their lives doing this. For example, if there was a universal flood, there would be a worldwide universal layer of silt and debris the world over at the same depth in the soil. There isn't one. Ergo, no flood occured on a global scale.

Evolution has mountains of evidence, countless fossils, countless findings etc.. People who don't believe in it either a) don't have any knowledge about it at all or b) refuse to believe in it because they are stubborn and want God to create everything. You can observe evolution happening, we have observed it and it is happening. But to give you an example
In Uganda in Queen Elizabeth's national park in the early 1900's, a scientific team decided to make a survey of the tusks of the Elephants in it, they found only 1% had no tusks, they kept doing this over generations and a couple years ago they found 10% of the population had no tusks. They found out that poachers kept coming in against the law and killing the elephants with big tusks they can sell, and so the elephants with no tusks survived through that and became more prevalent. That's how Evolution works, then over millions of more years they end up as new species etc. etc.
Theory, oversimplified explanation of a group of phenomena. See Theory of gravity.
Law, mathematical model of theory. See Law of gravitational attraction
Also, the whole micro macro bullshit is idiotic.
Micro evolution x times=macro evolution.
Once you accept the world is 4 billion years old, +/- .3billion, your mind will find the theory easier to understand. Otherwise, saying nothing changes over 4 billion years is just simply retarded.
As for beneficial mutations, sickle cell anemia springs to mind. Sickle cell anemia is a recessive genetic disorder, requiring two genes to present. It is only found in people of african descent. The thing about sickle cell anemia is, they are immune to malaria. The malaria parasite infects the cell but the cell sickles and dies before it can spread. Genetically speaking, having 3/4 kids immune to malaria, the number 1 killer in africa, is genetically sound.
Or how some descendents of black plague survivors are immune to HIV. HIV, which leapt species from SIV (Simian Immuno virus).
Seriously, it might help to crack open a dictionary before spouting off on shit you clearly don't know anything about.
