I hate to tell you this but you're not a chosen believer. You're an unspiritual man who will die mocking God's creation.
What would happen after that?
So, why is it not a code?
I don't think so.
C++ is not a code. It makes code.
But DNA is an object, it could be represented by a complex code.
You need to pay closer attention, my reply was not to him asking for clarification, he asked for that in a prior post. It was to him saying he didn't know how to measure complexity.
Most agree on what is complex and what is not
Then perhaps assume that we are just idiots and need you to explain it to us....nothing complicated about it, so when, out of convenience, someone loses their ability to reason the simple, I naturally believe that equals dancing around it.
That's pretty much a coloring book answer.
I'm saying that conferring a certain definition on something to serve an agenda does nothing to help our understanding of the natural world.
Is the process of a couple of hydrogen atoms bonding with an oxygen atom a 'code'....?
Natural selection.
Survival and reproduction to pass on the DNA, including the mutations.
Or not.
No, it's not.
It's a programming language. It's what you use to produce code. Writing C++ = to code.
When we talk about the stuff being written in C++, we talk about "the code".
You can symbolically represent molecules (and atoms, and pretty much any other physical object) by a data structure, yes.
So what?
OK, what does this "selection" do to human?
What kind of a question is that?
Selection doesn't "do" anything. It's a conceptual term to describe something that inevitably happens in real life.
It's like talking to a wall...
So, conceptually, what inevitably happen to human by mutation?
How about realistically?
It's explained in the post you are replying to. And it doesn't just apply to humans. It applies to all species.
Right. In response to "is x more complex then y?".
In order to be able to answer that question, one would have to define "complexity" and have appropriate means to measure it.
So, can you define the word and explain how to measure it?
Because if not, one can wonder what the point of your question is...
Really? Why don't you humor us and explain it, then...
Then perhaps assume that we are just idiots and need you to explain it to us.
So... what is "complexity", how does it objectively differ from "simplicity" and how does one measure the "level of complexity"?
Fixation just means becoming established in a population, like lactose tolerance, trichromatic vision, and sickle-cell disease, among thousands of others.Do we have an example of mutations which lead to fixation?
