What are the main problems of evolution?

Question

This is not a religious debate.

Answer 1

If we evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

Answer 2

um take a bowl cause the air has all kinds of stuff in it turn it upside down on a solid surface and to no ones amazement a galaxy does not form

Answer 3

The fact that so many people look different and that humans grew in different environments and that it gave man the "tools" to make weapons of mass destruction.

Answer 4

dude up top... take bio 101.

no where in the theory of evolution does it say that we evolved from apes, though we have two DNA differences in our makeup.

We have four differences from horses.

DNA's like a graph. You change the gradient a little so that it barely shows in 10 units, but 100 units from now, you have a huge visual difference in slope.

One allele difference can tell you whether you've got fins or feet.

The theory of evolution is based on fossil records. Anything wrong comes from an incomplete fossil record.

hence, "the missing link".

there are also different types of evolution. Remember, one allele can make all the difference, so who or what we mate with can change things a great deal at the same time in different places/populations.

Answer 5

Ignorance of people who refuse to learn.

Answer 6

There are several major questions that are seriously studied by evolutionary biologists.  Of course, the origin of life is still unclear.  So is the presumed transition for RNA-based life to DNA-based. Also, I am not sure that we understand how some species manage to get along with parthenogenesis given the apparent need for sexual reproduction to produce the variation needed to outfox bugs, parasites, and other enemies.  Then there is still much to be learned about the way in which female preferences in mates work.  The evolution of many aspects of humans is also compeltely mysterious, esp. the evolution of language.  There are tons more.

Answer 7

There are no problems.  You will get religious types who don't understand the subject come up with all sort of notions.  One common problem suggests that DNA cannot increase information.  There are about 4 different ways to increase information, some of them built into the eukaryotic machinery, but that doesn't stop them from asserting it.  The target audience doesn't know the difference.  

They will say that there are no examples of species forming and use the micro versus macro argument.  In fact mutations happen and if species are separated, they will separate genetically.  If the separation is sufficient, they won't be genetically compatible.  Fossil record exists of animals radiating from a common ancestor.  That proves that species form.  

They are left with statements like the odds of DNA spontaneously forming.  Well life obviously started in a more primitive state.  I can't really blame them for that because so many biologists don't even understand how life likely evolved from forms much more simple than the most primitive life on Earth today.

Answer 8

Darwin was incorrect because there was not a lot of research done on biology at that time.

He had said "survival of the fittest."

Now we know that is not true.

Answer 9

It takes alot of time.

Answer 10

That cockroaches may inherit the earth.

Answer 11

Have you yet come across the Brilliant, Adam and Eve Prover:

Book, TWO BIRDS ... ONE STONE!!, by genius Kinesiologist, Denis Towers [Xulonpress.com], 2007??

Upon a 9 year study, the author writes this work, which scientifically illustrates that Man and the snake are diametric opposites - both, 'functionally-anatomicall... and behaviourally.

It is a Master-work among the books that have been written!

An absolute MUST for believers and for Creationists.

If you want that elusive SCIENTIFIC proof of Adam and Eve and God, this is it!!!

Highly Unique among books.

Who has read it??

How did you enjoy it?
