At least I can read. Your life would be more exciting and full if you could as well.

Stop shouting. I know you're pissed off and stamping your little feet so hard it's gonna wear your shoes out, but you really need to relax.

It's Sunday. I'm sure the pharmacy will be open tomorrow and you can get your mood stabilizers refilled.

Lol, tell me, how can your faith be verified? Credibility has nothing to do with it.

Verify to who? I'm the only one YHWH had to convince!
Mason, you believe as you chose, but to me it’s a myth.

That's completely your choice.
It sure is, although some Christians try very hard to change that.
Are you saying "Bible Thumpers" AKA "Der Juden" are hiding or destroying transitional fossils?
Conservative?
Do you figure God is a Conservative, and Satan is a democrat, a Marxist? I guess that would make sense.

Factcheck: Despite creationist claims, there are many ‘transitional links’ in the fossil record
“Fossils with transitional morphology are not rare,” writes The National Center for Science Education, an American non-profit organisation. “Fossils illustrating the gradual origin of humans, horses, rhinos, whales, seacows, mammals, birds, tetrapods, and various major Cambrian “phyla” have been discovered and are well-known to scientists.”
Long lists of discovered transitional fossils are available, including ones that show the transition of animals from water to land and dinosaur to bird, as well as numerous hominid species that show increasing mutations toward humanlike physiology.
Given this apparent abundance of examples, how is it that some creationists continue to claim that transitional fossils do not exist?
Claims that there remain “missing links” in the fossil record are true in a sense, but trivial, and aptly explained in a scene from the cartoon Futurama in which a talking ape challenges a professor asking “why has no one found the missing link between modern humans and ancient apes?”
“We did find it, it’s called Homo erectus,” the professor replies, to which the ape then asks why there is a missing link between apes and Homo erectus. The professor again answers that we have found it: Homo habilis. However, each time the professor replies with a known link, the ape points out that new gaps now exist between that link and the others.

Darwin called a lack of fossil evidence evolution’s “most obvious and gravest objection”

And wrong. At least if you believe in the God of the Bible. You cannot believe in both. Evolution presumes NATURAL selection. If you introduce God into that closed system the selection is no longer natural. You can’t start with a supernatural trigger because everything that occurs after is rigged by a supernatural God. It’s like athletes on steroids. I’m not bothered by the contradiction but believing in both is, in my opinion, having your cake and eating it too. It is impossible to reconcile.

That of all the animals ,unique is the talking ape is naked! Why? I don't have the answer.Factcheck: Despite creationist claims, there are many ‘transitional links’ in the fossil record

I appreciate how you broadcast just how wrong you are about to be.
It would appear that you don't understand either.
Sure. I'm not convinced you know what that even means.
Let's take a sidebar. How does something become introduced into a closed system? Does it need to be a closed system? What if we assume that it is an open system?
False. Ask a Christian if God governs nature.
As long as the rigging involves nature, the logic still holds.
In what way?
There is no contradiction that you have mentioned.
The impasse comes between young earthers and Darwin's theory. Darwin's theory requires much longer time spans while young earthers insist on short time spans. Otherwise there are no other incompatibilities.
