Now, there are so many other fundamental problems with evolution that people don't often talk about because they're caught up in the magic. One of them is transitional forms.

If evolution is occurring, then all fossils are transitional forms, and if this is the case, and if symmetry formed over time, why is there an ominous lack of non-symmetrical complex animals. How on Earth can you explain all this amazing and abrupt symmetry.

In science we say that when our understanding of the issue (usually a stated theory) is contradicted by the evidence that the conclusion, the understanding is falsified.

Logically all fossils are transitional (due to the change in hereditary traits in populations from generation to generation), but also (logically) symmetry is not necessary. There are many kinds of symmetry, and you can find examples of bilateral symmetry and pentagonal radial symmetry to name two. To claim that symmetry is necessary would mean that you would need to have both kinds, unless I am missing something.

Fossils clearly show an abrupt appearance of complex, symmetrical, self-reproducing machines. This is clear evidence of intelligent design.

How do you reach this conclusion. You say clearly, but I don't see any logical development of your argument or anything but a lack of evidence on way or the other. How does this support a conclusion of design?

Enjoy.
