Well, that's a testable assumption. Which of the four points of Darwinian theory have been refuted? Name the point and how it's been refuted. If you do that, you'll be the first person answer my question. What do you have?
Show us that. Epigenetics is a rather small contributor to inheritance. Even most YECs admit that much.
Even honest YECs admit that there is abundant evidence for the evolution of whales. Would you like me to show you?
Here you've wrongly assumed that evolution is about the way life began. Even Darwin assumed that God created the first living things.
"People are down on things they aren't up on."
Everett Dirkson
Darwin's is a good start. Tell us which of his points in the theory have been refuted. Most YECs cut and run at this point. But maybe you're different. What do you have?
Funny thing. A little over 50 years ago, when I started in biology, we were missing a lot of transitional fossils. Now, a very large number of them have been found. And the mechanisms of heredity have been worked out. And an entirely new science, evolutionary development, has shown how developmental genes account for phylogenetic change. But you know nothing about any of this, do you. Someone needs education on all that took place in the last 50 years.
Let's see if you can come up with an answer for us. Good luck.
Whilst I laud the fact you actually responded with other than only insults ,
my basis is scientist not YEC or worse the even more discountable faith of Scientism materialist .
My interest is what science can show, not what life only from evolution believers believe
Since you couldn’t resist an attack on saying “ I don’t know that”
I will state you don’t know what I know.
you will get only one response, unless you answer my two questions. Without insult.
We will get to them after noting your logical non sequitur. I did not oppose any of Darwins postulates ( although some are far from proven ) - what I stated was darwinian postulates of evolution cannot account for life.. It was a working hypothesis based only on what he knew. - so your first argument is a fail on the broader question of life .
Darwin evolutin I’d like saying “ I can get closer to the moon by walking up this hill” then concluding
therefore I can get to the Moon by walking up hill, see the problem?
Extrapolating a small Observation assuming all else follows?
There are indeed jumps. It is indeed “ a theory in crisis” for many reasons follow the survey of arguments in the book of that name. I’ll give you other authors when you have read those arguments.
Whale gestation is so slow there are not enough generations for the mass of adaptation necessary .
life proceeds in jumps, not Darwin’s small change, some species don’t change at all.
darwin knew nothing of genotype or phenotype , it’s why he went off track.
As for inheritance generally , more than genome , start with basics like noble , on why neo Darwinism doesnt work.
Many other authors go way beyond that. Junk dna is not junk.
If you want to talk evolution of life You should focus on two questions.
1/ the absence of any cell structure postulated before the massively complicated modern DNA cell. that is the organism on which to question evolution development. All living things come from it. The information contained is vast . but Where did it come from? All attempts to reverse engineer it renoving parts fail. What preceded it?
No bottom up nor top down path is even conjectured ,
So if you want a theory of levolution start with .the basics, the cell.
And
2/ what is consciousness? leading physicists believe consciousness is primary , not matter- .a mass of evidence says When you say” I am“ it is your consciousness speaking, and plenty of evidence says Consciousness is separable and survives clinical death. Nothing exists till observed, even hawking got to that in the end.how did consciousness evolve? Without consciousness you have no theory of life,
Coming to which
3/ where do the laws that guide your process come from?
Even Feynman admits he has no idea what gravity is or where it came from.
Liebniz was rude to Newton because couldn’t answer what gravity is. Only what it does . Liebniz missed the obvious . Science only answers what things normally do. It can’t say why. if you were a student of science philosoohy you would see the problem assuming laws produced life As explanation of life.
So if you want to say life came from evolution ( or me to answer again)
then answer the basics 1/ and 2/.
You cannot.
They are all tied up with 3/ you have a big heap of reading, I will let you get on with it.
BUT
I only entered the thread to ask why believers in Scientism and life only from evolution think they can be rude to others ? it is the rudeness that bothers me.
Believe what you will. But don’t pretend you know where life came from. Or there is an audit trail to life,
You believe m and that is all. others differ. At least my beliefs have some scientific evidence!
You have no evidence for the process to the current cell.
