If [when] antibiotic resistent tuberculosis wiped out one third of European population?
would that finally prove evolution to those who deny it? miss Dementia> well after denying to take a swineflu shot, i seem to be a damn tough build, as well, 'cause i did survive that pandemic, too. i AM concerned of tuberculosis, though.

Evolution is already proven beyond any plausible refute. You could invent a time machine and collect a sample of every single transitional form in history, and it *still* wouldn't convince someone who is determined to deny reality because it conflicts with their religious beliefs.
2 :
In their last gasping, hacking, spewing breath, they would deny it.

If ifs and buts were candy and nuts we'd all have a really good Christmas. It doesn't take an epidemic to prove evolution. We see it every day. If people don't want to accept that fact, then that's their loss.

evolution is real.....help the cause...don't give treatment for you grandmother with that tumor on her back....medicine is just holding evolution back....she was about to grow wings! =D

I hope a day like that never comes, to be honest. And if it comes, then what? The closed-minded always remain closed-minded till they THEMSELVES realize the flaws in their thinking. I'm figuring even after such a tragedy they would still deny the role of Evolution in nature. The avian flu and its various strains didn't change their perspective on Evolution, now, did they? Edit: I have to say I'm bemused by all the TDs Paul has gotten. He said nothing wrong.

Even creationists have been forced to accept what they are pleased to call micro-evolution, because it so self evidently must happen. That they can't then logically go on to deny macro-evolution seems to have escaped them.

Anyone who doesn't believe in evolution...IS A NUMBSKULL

The next great pandemic is more likely to be a flu strain like the 1918 Spanish Flu epidemic that killed more people than WW1. A mutant strain of an old bug that people and science have not developed a resistance to. Evolution at work making our world a better place ( for those who survive anyway :-)

Of course not (and I don't deny it). Jim, http://www.BibleSelecter.com

I didn't look at the other responses yet, but I did hear the shrieking of "micro evolution" clear in the other room. Oh, it proves that 2/3 of the European population is tougher than some little TB bacteria. Don't leave that part out. RAWR!!! Edit: I did better than get the shot - I caught the actual H1N1 "swine flu". LOL! I've had seasonal influenza that was much worse but I understand for some people it's incredible dangerous. I think most of it was simple fear mongering though. The CDC says it's still a pandemic, too. I'm now immune though, so I'm not too worried.

Miss Dementia rocks!! I love it. And she could be right. We - who did survive the plague of communism - we'll survive most everything. And who can be so thick to disapprove the Darwin theory. Isn't this cute monkey tail some indication of it? http://www.iceagenow.com/baby_with_a_tail_in_India.jpg
