Fish Raised On Land Give Clues To How Early Animals Left the Seas 62
sciencehabit writes When raised on land, a primitive, air-breathing fish walks much better than its water-raised comrades, according to a new study. The landlubbers even undergo skeletal changes that improve their locomotion. The work may provide clues to how the first swimmers adapted to terrestrial life. The study suggests that the ability of a developing organism to adjust to new conditions—its so-called developmental plasticity—may have played a role in the transition from sea to land.

Okay, dumbass, let's see you use the scientific method to prove evolutionary theory correct. Surprise!!! You can't do it because it deals with things that can't be absolutely proven.
Still a better story than Twilight... err.. I mean $HolyBookDuJour.
Claiming that creationists don't understand science is ignorant and bigoted, and yet it happens every day.
If they understand it, they wilfully decide to override it with fantasy.
Fuck you and your judgmental, self-serving attitude. Christians do have brains and do have the ability to reason, and your insults don't change the fact.
Have brains, ability to reason, and actively choose to suppress them? Your insults don't change the fact.
Go right ahead and persecute us with your insults, it only makes us stronger.
Maybe science should start playing the persecution card too. It seems very popular and effective. You persecute me because I'm a scientist!
