Do creationists accept the evolution of plants?

Blank statement.



Eggs from humans grow new humans with different DNA. But the new human is still a 100% human. How is that different? That is how evolution works.



No, I really don't.

As I am not a biologist, so my argument has holes. But it is not a big deal.

Every human has different DNA. But we all have human DNA which is different from DNA of other life forms.

But, individual plants of the same species, have very different DNA. In other words, plant species can not be identified by its DNA.

Right? Biology expert.

Biological Evolution applies to living organisms, not just a subset of all organisms (animals).

If you define "evolution", you will find what you said is either meaningless, or is not true.

Do not cheat yourself.

Plants do not change as animals do. If evolution describes the behavior of animal change, then it does not apply to plants.
As you seem to know so much about evolution I would be interested to know why out of approximately 12,000 species of plants on Madagascar about 10,000 of them grow no where else on the earth? that's an awful lot of plants to be found only on one relatively small island, do you think you could tell me how that happened? Thank you.
According to the theory of evolution, this is not possible.
So, evolution is false.
I'm sorry I thought you knew more than you do, you are obviously a creationist and know nothing about evolution.

Why would you wish to make yourself look foolish by writing about things you know nothing about? I don't understand.

I see you still haven't come around to informing yourself on high school biology.

Plants and animals are both life forms based on the exact same genetic mechanisms. Yes, both are subject to the laws and processes of bio-chemistry.

Biochemistry is not good enough.

Exactly, I know much more than you do. So you don't see what I said. I said that because I wish I could teach you a little.

If you don't like my teaching, then I would let you go to play with others.

Wrong. DNA is used in plant systematics all the time nowadays.

It's not that I don't like your teaching it's just that I don't like what you have to teach, I think it borders on child abuse,
if you are not a creationist then I apologise for labelling you as such.

If my memory serves me correctly, Juv claimed to be a geology professor and when question on this, he eventually relented. Then, if I recall, he went back to claiming he was and is a geology professor.

Enjoy his posts, for the entertainment purposes.

I mean, anyone with two brain cells to rub together knows that there is NO WAY someone who spouts so much ignorance as often as he does could never be any kind of professor.

Yes and remember; no such thing as a bad teacher, there are only bad students - according to juv.

But to give credit where credit is due, Juv has really surpassed himself this time.

Just these two alone are worth savoring with special recognition.

He had some other beauts in the thread but these two are toppers.

Solid entertainment.
