If evolution is true...

[Praxiteles]

I like to wear a pshawl when displaying disdain.

It keeps out the cold and it disproves evolution. Plus it has some pretty colours in it.

 

[Praxiteles]

But what about developments like gaitors, leggings, crampons (that might be the spikes, not the bladed attachments) and shoephones (hello Agent 99)? None of those things were part of the original sandal/fur foot wrap. Where did they comes from?

Exactly! Where did they come from?

Well, there are no transitionals to be found in the fossil record, are there? I think the answer is simple enough.

Simple answers are great for simple folk like me. Hyuk.

...why don't my shoes fit properly? If Darwin was such a smartypants, why haven't my feet evolved to fit my shoes?

That's almost like asking why your not fifty feet tall.

Pretty obsurd question don't you think?

The fact that your feet don't fit your shoes properly doesn't disprove evolution.

Maybe you should buy another pair of shoes.

 

[Praxiteles]

Well?

Why aren't I fifty feet tall?

Although, with fifty feet I'd have even more problems finding shoes that fit. It'd be so expensive.

Not necessarially. You might be able to fit into a nice comfortable size 25 in a stylish pair of Hush Puppies that are resonably priced at your local shoe warehouse.

If you continued to grow at the same rate you began, then by the time you were 30 you would be as big as the whole universe. Something slows down the growth process and eventually the growth process stops.

Never mind the size 25. With 50 feet I'd require 25 pairs of shoes. I suppose I could get a bulk discount on shoes, but using an escalator would be awkward. And I could forget about learning to ride a bike.

Gosh, that's a relief! I never thought of that. If we kept growing at that rate we'd run out of air by the time were 6.

Sprunge!

There are not only no transitionals, there are also no common ancestors to be found. They say we decended from something, but they have no idea what it was that we decended from.

There does seem to be some indication that domesticated animals decended from animals that were once wild.

You would be over 1000 pound by the time you were 6, so you could give fat albert a run for his money.

No doubt about it. If someone tried to domesticate me I'd be quite wild too. Especially if I had to wear shoes.

Wow, that is amazing insight there John R Seven, did you figure that out all by yourself?

You're good.

Maybe even a little scary.

naah, you would be in a big cage in a research lab anyway, either that or shipped off to Japan to fight against the huge sea monsters (none of which are fantasy, they are ALL creatures that REAL PEOPLE have seen, remember humans have no imagination at all and must see something before they can think of it) that pop up from time to time, and be provided with free shoes as payment.

he's our resident Sherlock. He has a non-answer for everything.

There's a clear transition between sandals and loafers. It couldn't be any more clear.

Evilshoeitionist lies! I don't see any half-sandal half-loafer shoes anywhere, so shoevolution doesn't exist.

 

[JohnR7]

Not all by myself, I had the charts the doctor gives you when you have a new born baby, so you can chart their growth to see if they are normal. Their birth weight doubles the first four months, and I thought WOW, if they kept going at that rate, they would get very big, very fast.

WRONG! I can't believe you are trying to use OUR tax dollars to get YOUR shoes in the schools! Everyone KNOWS sandals are a HOAX!! They are nothing but badly made LOAFERS, that was proven 150 YEARS AGO!!!
Evil-shoe-in-ists are just trying to take MY tax dollars to support THEIR RELIGION!!!!

You realize, of course, that the universe is very, very, very big. Even an incredibly huge human (putting aside real world physical restraints for a moment) wouldn't even come close to the size of the universe.

however if a baby doubled in mass every four months for the whole of it's life, say 70 years. that is 840 months or 210 doublings. Given an initial weight of 1kg we end up with a weight of 1.6*10^63kg. The mass of the known universe is about 3*10^52kg. assuming the baby stopped growing at 20, it would achieve a mass of 1.1*10^18kg. An appropriate name for your child in this case would be Phoebe

You continue to amaze the heck out of me John R Seven, amazing!

Are you a professor by any chance?

Those lil babies sure grow like weeds eh?

Keep up the good work with your diligent research into the world of evolution.
