Revision as of 22:34, October 26, 2008
, 22:34, October 26, 2008Removed the statistical approach, because it's absurd. These things don't have a 'chance' of being true. Evolution did not occur. Period
* Consciousness - No animal displays self-awareness (such as clothing), morality, tool-making, or self-sacrifice to the same extent that man does. If man were evolved from lower life forms, we would expect at least some other animals to display these traits. Since they do not, it's clear that man is not simply an animal.

* No clear transition form unicellular to multicellular organisms - a single cell in a multicellular organism has no ability to survive on it own as it has only a single function, but if a unicellular organism loses one function it will die.
