Incidentally, just to clarify something:Allright, i see.
Would they know perfect DNA if they saw it?
In the family trio studies, they sequenced the entire genomes of the parents and the child. If there is a DNA difference found in the child but in neither of the parents, then that is a mutation.How do we know it is a mutation and not just a variant of the original genes,
like brown hair or red hair in populations having mostly black hair?
Most mutations are non-transferable,
and those that are, are usually weeded out
within a few generations.
Anyhow, there is nothing proving that mutation rates
are stable across the board. Some species or even individuals are more prone to
mutations than others.
You have that worded wrong. We differ in at least 40 million places.
That's just bluff.Incidentally, just to clarify something:
You said I complimented you when I said you sounded like a scientist -- and I'm glad you took it that way.
But for the record, very, Very, VERY few people on here don't sound like a scientist to me.
Let's just say I'm "science challenged".
So everyone who talks that mumbo-jumbo stuff sounds like a scientist to me.
At the least, I'm willing to refer to them as a "scientific methodist;" meaning they employ the scientific method to try to pwn the Scriptures.
Maybe it's time to consolidate?Even consol sounds sciency to me at times!
That's only logical, isn't it?How is that any different than a mutation?
Are you saying that if we purposefully change a base that it will not cause any harm, but if that same base is changed through the natural process of mutation that it will cause harm?
That's only logical, isn't it?
Natural mutations are random, purposeless.
It's just data-corruption.
Do you mean by procreation?What is logical? Let's say that the random process of mutations produces this change:
ATTGCGGTCT ------> ATGGCGGTCT
This mutation resulted in a serious disease.
Humans now go in and purposefully produce the exact same mutation.
I thought you meant a purposeful mutation by man, genetic science etc..Are you saying that the human produced mutation will not result in the same disease?
Do you mean by procreation?
We didn't invent that, that's just us being mammals.
The purpose is not to reproduce a mutation, it's just us answering our hormones etc.I thought you meant a purposeful mutation by man, genetic science etc..
Is that so?Like I said, Hieronymus, you need to do some more careful studying.
Allright, i'll give you that...And it sure wouldn't hurt if you learned to be a bit more respectful in what you say.
Evolutionary thinkers should draw the conclusion it's just a conjecture, very much more unlikely than the "occams razor": creation by a very very intelligent creator.I realize you don't like evolutionary thinkers.
Well well...However, you are not at all qualified to sit in judgment on evolution or anything else in mainstream science.
This is not theology.If you want to ridicule it all as indoctrination, you should go some place else, as that is a totally inappropriate way to respond in a theological discussion group.
You mean like you do?You should address your opponent's arguments and not attack his or her character.
Degradation.Some people are making the claim that almost all, and even perhaps all, mutations are harmful. If you can't change a genome at all, then what should we see?
Degradation.
Fortunately for all us living beings the reproducing system is rather overbuilt, can handle data-mistakes, can correct them even, but it's still a system without maintenance, it runs as "stand alone".
Also, really nasty mutations tend not to survive or find a mate, will not be a part of the gene pool for long.
???All the other species are degraded versions of humans?
???
How did you.. where did i..?
No, all organisms are degraded copies of the original(s).
So it's illegal to not teach a poor conjecture that; s been completely bankrupt since man discovered DNA.Incidentally, the "monkey trail" was about whether or not a gym substitute teacher had taught anything at all about evolution in a biology class. When examined, he appeared to know very little about evolution and so did the students. In the end, he lost and had to pay a fine.
