Top 10 Myths About Evolution

[doubtingmerle]

The sun increases the rate of entropy. Nothing becomes more
complex or increases in information due to the sun.

New York city, for instance.

Islands full of trees became massively complex cities as fueled by the transfer of energy from the sun.

I was pointing out how the pointed pointmaker was not answering the question, but attempting to discredit the questioner instead. A pointedly sad response.

Your point ignores the point that chimps were pointed in a different direction from humans, and hence humans and chimps arrived at different points.

Then why is it called parallel evolution when it happens?

Parallel evolution is the development of a similar trait in related, but distinct, species descending from the same ancestor, but from different clades.

For the same reason parallel lines are called parallel. Parallel lines don't lead to the same point.

About 1/3 of all fossils are found outside of the "correct" strata layer.
When found they are classified as in unconforming layers.

Do you have a source for this claim?

We are apes and who says we are on different paths?

I say I am on a different path from chimps.

You too?

How about we answer the question?
It's that thing with the mark on the end.

Apes came from the branch that humans came from and it was long ago.

Faith comes first, then the associated narratives of religion which invariably contain the conjecture of human speculation. Science simply invalidates the errors within the conjecture not the Living faith of the religionist.

It's that thing with the mark on the end.

In evolution, species don't evolve twice.
Just like Latin will not evolve into Spanish on two seperate occasions.
Evolution simply doesn't work that way.

Those who ask that question, in other words, expose their ignorance on evolution 101.

Ok So that's one species. This confirms the Statement then.
I'd be so totally convinced with two examples between birds and reptiles.
One example....not so much
o' gap being filled. More like a pebble tossed in the Grand canyon.

It's one example of such a species.

 

[DogmaHunter]

who says we are on different paths?

Our DNA.

 

[DogmaHunter]

About 1/3 of all fossils are found outside of the "correct" strata layer.
When found they are classified as in unconforming layers.

80% of statistics on the internet without citation, are made up on the spot.

Then why is it called parallel evolution when it happens?

Parallel evolution is the development of a similar trait in related, but distinct, species descending from the same ancestor, but from different clades.

Traits and species, are not the same thing.
Traits, furthermore, are phenotype and not genotype.

The genes for bat wings, are not the same genes as for bird wings.
Yet they both share the trait of flight.

Name one expert - and I mean a real expert at a real university - who would agree that the sun increases entropy in such a way as to undermine the credibility of the theory of evolution.

I've been to a handful of schools and don't recall any experts in anything.

Uh-huh.

Exactly as I suspected.

You suspected the sun decreased entropy....and then you got schooled,
which prompted you to fire a diversion challenge using a school.

What points from and to?

Except....that we are still apes.

I had not considered that........example.

Are you willing to actually substantiate your claim in post 19 or not?
