I am talking about big picture guidance. The environment guides natural selection, and nothing guides the environment if there is no God. So again ultimately evolution is unguided.You obviously don’t know how to use a dictionary. From the same source:
Natural selection obviously has a direct influence on the changes that occur within a population over time. So it is in fact perfectly reasonable to describe selective pressures as the guide for evolution. You can’t just ignore specific uses of a word because they’re inconvenient for your argument.
- direct the motion or positioning of (something).
"the groove in the needle guides the thread"- 2.
direct or have an influence on the course of action of (someone or something).
No, since you are the one that believes in it, the burden of proof is on you to demonstrate how it could have evolved from simple to complex especially given that even trilobite eyes are just as complex as modern insects.ga: Great. Now demonstrate how this system couldn’t have evolved from a slightly simpler system, which itself evolved from a simpler system, which itself evolved from an even simpler system, which... etc. You’d be the first to do so.
I do understand evolution I have studied it for over 30 years. And I didn't say it was impossible, only extremely unlikely.ga: I’ll reiterate: you don’t understand evolution. At least read up on what it actually is before you go around arguing that it’s impossible. There’s no shortage of books and online resources to help you with this. You’re completely without excuse.
