mutation

Hi there, So this is the philosophical "glass half empty or glass half full" (see philosophy has its uses!): Ultimately greater humanoids could take over, or they could show us better? Where do you stand?

Hi there, So it really comes down to one gripe, with Evolution: that macro-Evolution does not have consequences. Setting aside that we do not see it, in nature, for a moment, let us consider agreeing with the spirit of what is being said - to see if we can learn from it. Now, there is...

Hi there, So question is: Get me? The glass is half full after all!

Hi there, So just putting aside the presupposition that mutation "precedes" adaptation, you have to at least accept that mutation might lead to something negative - something not adaptation. You could get cancer, or lameness or any of the myriad other things that go wrong in the human body. The...

Hi there, So just looking at a hypothetical, here: if two identically evolved suitor seek the same mate, they can only be chosen on the basis of emotion. This means that a better emotional tenor for Evolution, will out evolved a less emotional one. Reconciling this, can only lead to a stronger...

...is how startled I would have been? If the theory helps me discern how startled I am, from how startled I would have been: I can commit to being righteous, about how effective the startling I am is to others, who do not have the same angle, on the same truth (as they would have, if they had...

Hi there, So if sin could produce masses of mutation (dysfunctional DNA), why would you not expect it to produce masses of information? I mean that is just a one for one interpretation of the special place you give "mutation" - am I not correct? There is no telling what species could get...

Hi there, So this is what I don't get: you can transition into almost anything, as a species, kind after kind after kind, and then due to selection pressures prevailing against you, you can be put straight back to the kind you were, but not less. How does that even make sense? I mean if I am...

Hi there, In other words, you don't get to Heaven and get told "there is one more lesson, that you absolutely must learn. Neither do you find a place on Earth, where you realise that you absolutely must evolve further. Learning as a Man or engaging in an evolutionary way are neutral to the...

Hi there, So this thread is going to expose my bias, to a significant degree: because basically I feel like a choice should be made, even with little reason to change anything. I'll give you the example in the thread title: a species' members all face the same selection pressure, should they...

Hi there, So this simple truth was on television, and I thought it was quite apt: What are you doing about that, in the context of Evolution? I thought about it for a moment, and imagined one of you saying "that's what we mean by mutation: when something mutates, it is getting messed up", but...

Hi there, So this is a linguistic question, and I am not sure if you think it will be productive to argue the point with Evolutionists. The question is - even if Evolution had not been discovered - what happened to the chance that Evolution would be discovered and used, at the tower of Babel? I...

Hi there, So yes, a simple question in some ways: if "Caterpillar -> Cocoon -> Butterfly" evolves, why does "Butterfly -> Cocoon -> Butterfly" not evolve also? What selection pressure is there, for the former, but not for more of the same? If the evolution was guided by a selection pressure...

Hi there, So yes, it is Sunday and I am just looking at this as simply as I can. I tried to work out what Evolutionists would see in Jesus and it seemed to just drag and drag out. I am not sure if that is a sign of something or not. So now I am looking at it, without any real preconceptions and...

Hi there! So I am just wondering where you stand on this: its basically a question aimed at whether the working component of Evolution ("mutation") is able to be polarized, or not? Like when you are in a car, you say "if I can turn left, I can turn right" - the whole premise of steering is not...

Hi there, This is probably the simplest thought experiment seen yet: if you have an adaptation for which the selection pressure stops, what happens to the "Evolution"? It is a basic question of what "Evolution" is - as a law. It's basically a legacy, right? (Evolution is a legacy of past...

Hi there, So, for whatever reason, people don't like anything new, to Evolution - but I don't think that that would be the approach that Charles Darwin would have taken. I suggested there is negative 'Evolution' for example, and no one seems to be able to understand, that what you give can also...

Hi there, EDIT (FROM END): So let me know what you think: the subject is basically "a life of mutation and a life of freedom from mutation, how do you think they compare?". EDIT (FIRST CUT): So yes, first let me disclaim: I don't understand species as being any different from individuals, I...

Hi, So yes, there are adaptations that are specifically human. Humans also assert their selection pressures on other species. Why don't other species respond to humans with human adaptations? A more human ape, is the future? Why not? If Evolution is a continual force, human adaptations will...

Hi there, So yes I am wary of just posting one argument to another, for Evolutionists to consider (they tend to bite anything, that is not rote learned Evolution): so I thought I would run this argument past you. "The caterpillar is not allowed to transform into a butterfly, the caterpillar...
