Creationists are always asking for transitional fossils showing the progression of a animal's change over time. How about for human evolution? [Spirituality & Religion]

It seems incontrovertible that humans have not always existed in their current form, that there were earlier “versions”. The creationist narrative is that humans were created in their present form. That does not square with the fossil evidence.

Definitely. That goes for other organisms as well.
The fossil record just doesn't support that fully formed creation.

I keep posting a thread about what a creationist thinks a transitional form would look like and i keep not getting responses.

@Pikachu Creationist are very fond of saying examples of transitional forms aren't really transitional forms. Of course, they won't give their definition of a transitional form because their house of cards will come crashing down when such an example is presented.

Yeah like i said, i'm having trouble getting an answer on that one.

@Pikachu I doubt you ever will get a definitive answer from them, for the reason I've given.
