Evolution has been officially debunked. Watch this series, and i promise it isnt boring cause the guy make jokes and is a great speaker. Check it out guys, no more evolution unless your ignorant and still believe we came from monkeys...
Debunking Evolution Theory
New Birdlike Dinosaur Found in ArgentinaJosé Orozco

September 29, 2008
A new predatory dinosaur with a birdlike breathing system found in Argentina may help scientists better understand the evolution of birds' lung systems. (See more photos.)
The elephant-size dinosaur Aerosteon riocoloradensis lived 85 million years ago during the Cretaceous period.

Impossible question to answer, which is probably the same way it was presented to you so I will not criticize.
You must understand the earth is roughly 4.5BILLION years old. For much of this time, live has been evolving on the planet from single-celled bacteria to multi-cellular organisms. For us to recover fossil evidence of this transformation millions of years ago would have to be a miracle (pardon the joke).

To all evolution believers i have a question for u..

They did not have jaws as the name agnatha implies. They suckedup organic goo that was on the bottom the ocean. And these areyour most ancient ancestors, these bottom dwelling, scum suckingancestors. They are known as just fragmentary, almost microfossils from the Cambrian, but they are big enough that they canbe microscopically sectioned an examined. And they have the samemicroscopic structure as the bony plates do.
And so they have the distinction, the important point of vertebratein evolution of being the oldest group fossil groups with jaws,the first ones to have evolved with jaws. And they appear in thelower Silurian, that is early Silurian right at the boundary withthe Ordovician.
SYNOPSIS. A comparative analysis of actinopterygian and sarcopterygian aerial buccal pumps indicates that the primitive pattern of air transfer differs fundamentally between these two clades. Actinopterygian fishes ventilate their lungs with a four-stroke buccal pump: the buccal cavity expands and fills with expired air, compresses to expel expired air, expands again to take in fresh air, and then compresses again to pump fresh air into the lungs. Lungfishes, caudates, and anurans expand and compress the buccal cavity only once per expiratory-inspiratory cycle, and thus use a two-stroke pump. Both of these bidirectional, aerial buccal pumps evolved from unidirectional, aquatic buccal pumps. The two-stroke aerial pump and the primitive aquatic pump used for gill irrigation share slow movements and may both be triggered by the same central rhythm generator. These similarities suggest that the two-stroke buccal pump evolved from the gill irrigation pump. Similarly, the four-stroke pump shares rapid movement and afferent triggering with aquatic suction feeding and coughing, suggesting that the four-stroke pump may have evolved from a combination of two suction feeding or coughing movements. Thus the differences between the actinopterygian and sarcopterygian aerial buccal pumps may be due to their independent evolution from different aquatic buccal pumps, rather than due to divergence from a single aerial buccal pump.

Furious we all watched the stupid Kent Hovid video and nobody believed it. The majority of this thread is people laughing at the evidence he provided, so I would warn you not to use the same evidence.
Answer: Gills which could also extract oxygen from air.
Go ahead, ruin our night.

Answer, probably both. Not lungs exactly, but close enough to crawl around on land for a while. (see above)

They can't huh, so how do you explain cellular division? How do you explain the replicated DNA/chromosomes every time cells divide in a growing fetus? Chromosomes are being copied and duplicated in the range of millions in your very body at any given moment. This is not theory, this is fact. Did you take a single biology class in High School?
Also animals cannot de-evolve if they didn't evolve in the first place. Kind of like you cannot exit a room that you were never in in the first place. Use a little logic.

There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one;

Wow!!! I am laughing sooo hard right now!!
Did they just stop growing on us?
"You are killing me here!!!"
And i know you will say we adapted to our environment,
WOW once again, you r starting to understand, even if it is on the "Sarcastic" side of arguement..ROTFLMAO!!!
so does that mean if i decided not to ever use my left leg my kids would be born without one? no it doesnt. another flaw in evolution.. explain that for me..
Stop arguing furious, it is really getting "Super Stupid" and very one sided as your points of views and beliefs.
Evolution:
n.
A gradual process in which something changes into a different and usually more complex or better form. See synonyms at development.
The process of developing.
Gradual development.
Biology.
Change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic variation among individuals, and resulting in the development of new species.
The historical development of a related group of organisms; phylogeny.
A movement that is part of a set of ordered movements.
Mathematics. The extraction of a root of a quantity.

hopefully the part about "A gradual process in which something changes into a different and usually more complex or better form. See synonyms at development.' will open your thought processors a bit..
And by the way, "Spell checker is in your "Tool Bar". on top of the screen..."
sorry for "Edit" forgot brackets on quotes!!
