Frog Evolution Or Creation?

Mutch like butterflies frogs change from one form to another over a very short period of time. Does this allow the idea of evolution or lean more towards creation?

Creation Evolution Frog

I have been saying that frogs prove a fast example of evolution for years. "God created everything in it's perfect form."

Rissa raises her hand to ask a question "Then why do eggs hatch? And why do tadpoles (a creature who can only survive in water) eventually become a frog (A creature who spends half of its life outside of the water?)

If you think about it, this kind of denies everything we are taught "Humans will never be able to breathe under water" "Humans will never fly"

I bet someone told a caterpillar he would never fly, and I bet someone told the tadpole he will never leave the pond.

I may have got carried away as it is late at night, but just some food for thought.

Well you make an interesting point mutch like mine. There is no real answer. To push it a bit further I would say look at the brain.

If you are a tadpole you eat little bits of vegetation. Then all of a sudden you are eating flies. These two things are opposite. Not only would your complete body makeup have to change but also your perception of the world would flip completly over in the most primal manner, wow.

Creation Evolution Frog

This is very true. A tadpole has basically only two instincts, to feed and to flee when scared. I read a research paper that claimed tadpoles are not even aware when they are full and they will eat anything small enough to fit in their mouth, nor can they tell when they have to facilitate.

Frogs on the other hand can flee from danger, explore at will on both land and water, selection of foods, they develop the ability to make noise (may have something to do with attracting flies) basically have the ability to plot their day and not spend their whole life struggling.

As you mentioned these are both pretty opposite creatures, going from a step above a single cell organism to something very unique and much more complex. In order for this change to happen the body would have to go through a drastic transformation which I can only assume would be painful. (think of how annoying your wisdom teeth were when they grew in.... Now think about your body changing from almost goo to a hard outer back with defined muscles and magically sprout limbs.) As you mentioned too the food selection differed, so they must be able to obtain an acquired taste and their inner organs would of had to develop tenfold. Even the tongue transformed into a vital new body-part for this creature.

Exactly and most importantly all this must change in the brain. The brain must completely change to tell the taste buds that flies taste good. It must change to tell the new coming frog that flies are its new food source.

That is what is freaking me out. Not only is the body making a complete change in the opposite direction willfully but, the brain is encouraging it and facilitating it.

How in the *whatever* could this actually be evolution? I would be very interested to hear arguments or information explaining this.

Frog Evolution Or Creation?

This has made me curious myself. I do see however how it could be evolution, but frogs go through an evolution stage in a few months that would have taken humans a few hundred thousand years through generations to achieve.

If the evolution theory is correct than all life started as one single cell organism or another that evolved and took it's own path or faced extinction becoming various species.

Frog Evolution Creation

I don't know but, is it maybe this is a completely different kind of evolution?

It very well could be something different than evolution, but the definition of evolution is already very broad. Are you composing that certain species have their own unique transformation rather than evolution?

To me I see it as a frog's DNA is less complex from that of a humans, as well as it's brain. When you are looking at a much more simpler organism than ourselves we have to take into consideration that our very distant ancestors could have been amphibians. (once upon a time the planet was completely under water, and after that there was an iceage that only rodents survived.) Frogs may go through stages of evolution in it's lifespan because of where it is located along the line of where it started as opposed to where it will go. Maybe the frog physically cannot go a step further as it has no capacity to adapt, or maybe it is on it's way to becoming the next alligator / crocodile type thing in the next hundred thousand years.
