    Fetish (foot or otherwise)

    Could you provide an example of this kind of fetish then? eta: Strike that. Can you explain why, if it doesn't have anything to do with sexual selection, evolution implies that it would be deleted? eta2: Hold on. I may be figuring out where you're coming from on this. But I have to spend...

    Fetish (foot or otherwise)

    And I see John is posting again this morning, so I'm going to go ahead and play that ace of *bump* I've been holding on to. The question: John, do you agree that fetishes do not pose a problem for evolution?

    Far-Flung Families Unite in Cyberspace -- And Kill Monsters

    Yeah... I've never gone in for MMORPGs, personally. They scare me. I'm bad enough with single-player games and books. But my roommate plays WoW quite a bit. And he groups and raids with his girlfriend on a very regular basis (she's currently about 100 miles away).

    Evolutionists saying categorically wrong things

    John... I'll give you this much. You're certainly entertaining. Now, granted, we could spend all day chasing each other's tail and saying, "You're projecting," "No, you're projecting." Which would be adorable. But that doesn't change what I was talking about. Namely that you had seemed to...

    What Colour Lightsabre would you carry

    I don't know about color, per se, but I imagine that with my study ethic, I might come up with one of these (warning: there's some profanity in this link).

    Evolutionists saying categorically wrong things

    Where was the last time I saw something like this... oh I remember. Junior high school. :doh:"I'm rubber and you're glue! Whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you! Nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah!!":D Takes all kinds, I guess. John, if there's some part of your meaning I'm missing, by all...

    Fetish (foot or otherwise)

    Ah, so "how does evolution take a bad trait away" was a question. ... You supplied the answer, almost, right after you asked it. If the trait is a) heritable and b)affects the chance of producing viable offspring, then evolution will affect it. So if a trait decreases the likelihood of an...

    Question...

    Okay. So you got the answer you wanted. I'll go ahead and agree that the likelihood of assembling a 747 out of junk approaches zero, especially over finite time. So what?

    *bump FGJ* How's it going, John?

    Fetish (foot or otherwise)

    Okay, I'm just going to ask this point-blank, because I'm not sure how sarcastic you're being in that post. Would you agree now that the existence of fetishes in humans does not present a problem for evolution?

    Who has influenced you.

    Largely, I agree with you, TexasSky. Just one quibble: thinking for yourself doesn't mean you discard what's been done before. <shrug>

    Who has influenced you.

    Okay. Allow me to expand my position. Everyone who has had helped expand our knowledge of the laws of nature has affected my life. So, you cool with the rest of that post then?
