If you're not going to make any effort at all why participate. Please tell me the difference between a law and a theory and the relationship between the two, in your own words.

Yes species slowly evolving over time has been proven time and again (it is an ongoing process that still occurs) but where did the first form of life originate?
That question has nothing to do with evolution. Again if you want to participate please do so honestly, listen to what others post and respond to it rather than retyping things you've read elsewhere.

Either it always was, meaning you still believe in something omnipotent, or it just magically came into existence by chance.
False dichotomy, prove that those are the only two choices.

[quote]All I need to do is look at the human brain and the literally billions of different functions it has been built to perform, how the sun is just the perfect distance from the Earth, and wonderfully functioning things like that, and what this debate really comes down to, is which is easier to believe: that there is an omnipresent being that created it all, or that all living matter as we know it happened completely by chance.[/FONT]

Just because you find it easier to believe doesn't mean anything; reality doesn't bend to your mental abilities.

And that my friends is why I believe in intelligent design – as difficult as it can be to throw one’s belief behind a being that one has never seen and can’t concretely prove, it sure as hell beats the idea that all life and order in the universe today all happened by random chance (which of course is a paradox because randomness suggests chaos, not order).
Evolution has been seen and proven through dozens of different types of science, all different and not connected. New species have been directly observed.

The evolution you are attacking doesn't exist. I don't believe in what you describe either, because what you describe isn't evolution.
