i also agree with you that it's in the Bible.:)

Lucky I got 25...lol. Ill trade you. :nerd::8: Ok i think we are now HJ this thread.lol. But yes you haev the right term. They got no legs and venoum we got bit and die.

not necessarily. so far atleast one part of each of our posts has pertained to why snakes do not have legs. we've kept on subject.

this is officially my first post that has not pertained to the original subject in some way. to make it related..... SNAKE LEGS! lol, just kidding

Interesting. I saw some show on TV a while back about legless animals & how they got that way.

Also had something on the same show I believe about us in few hundred years no longer having a pinkie toe.

There is absolutely no reason to give someone a neg rep simply because they express an opinion that is different from your own. Does his believing in Creation somehow cause some of your own brain cells to die? Does it hurt you in any way? Does it mean his input on this forum is any less valuable? If the answer to those is "no" then ther's no reason to ever look at the little reputation button.

And to the specific discussion at hand...if believing in Creation somehow makes a person's input here questionable and not worth considering....then maybe I should pack my own bags, too?

I took the comment as sarcasm trying to stir debate......There was no need to stir debate and apparently another person saw it that way too......for example, he could have said I dont believe in evolution or left his opinion to himself...Instead he was very smartalick in his reponse.

And when did I ever express an opinion in this thread? This thread wasnt about opinions.

My intention was not to turn this into a evolution vs. creaton debate....it was to show that different patterns of gene expression in Hox genes can explain different body plans.....or is that an opinion?

I personally think that giving someone negative points because you dont agree with their ideas is a very childish and immature way of handling a situation. If you disagree , then discuss it, or if you don't think the topic can be discussed in a civilized mature way, then walk away. I realize creation/evolution can be a heated topic, but still everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and according to site rules, no one should get negative points for expressing that opinion. I also agree with stangs on this one and take the creation side. I dont think anyone is disagreeing with the fact that genes control how bodys form and function, i think we all agree on that or we wouldnt buy morphs :P. But... I do think that given the very light hearted joking nature a large part of the posts in this site that something said with a less than strict professional format shouldnt be taken so seriously so suddenly.

He wasnt saying "No that way is wrong and the Bible states the right way" everyone knows it's in the bible...doesnt mean you believe it by saying its in there does it?
I'm going to get a negetive reputation point for this I'm sure....but realize freedom of speech and debate are both legal...maybe not in some places but you get what I mean...or maybe you dont.....

I dont like Stangs either but give the kid a break....:carrot:
And you said you dont want to turn this into a heated debate.....BUT who threw the negative reputation point first???

I too believe in creation. Without getting into a debate, which I will not do, nor will I try to "convert" any one of you, all I will say is this: I strongly disagree with the evolution theory. Please do not give me a negative rep. for stating my opinion, as I have no reputation to spare. LOL
