Creationists who are asking for transitional fossils?
...have you seen this? They found what looks to be yet another one.
@I am fat-
Why would faith need to enter into the equation here? This is a scientific find, it's tangible, it can be studied in the real world. What's faith have to do with it?
@Booth: "There are still billions and billions of missing transitional fossils."
This is true...but you seem to be discounting the hundreds of thousands of ones we DO have. Is it really your argument that evolution is false until EVERY single transitional fossil is found? And until then all the ones we DO find are not evidence of anything?
That's like saying there's no proof a baseball game is being played until the final out is made.
@Neil-
We HAVE found transitional fossils in the line of human evolution. Here's just ONE example:
@tobyink-
You're exactly right...EVERY single fossil is a transitional fossil. Organisms are constantly in transition from one form to another. I merely posted this question because transitional fossils seem to be a misplaced focus of creationists.

Isn't the whole "transitional fossil" thing a bit of a red herring?
All species are constantly evolving, so all fossils are a transition to something else. (Some lines just get snuffed out of existence before they can evolve into fitter species.)

Wouldn't man and ape transitional fossils be easier to find? But where is the missing link. When you manipulate things to force a theory to be true does not make it science.

I wish i had as good of faith as you do!
The hypocrites will be forever blind to their hypocrisy.
