Barbarian asks:
So you admit that sprouts can grow from redwood seeds, but giant redwood trees cannot, since we've never seen it happen?
And Hyracotherium had all the genetics needed to evolve into a modern horse. It appears the only reason you don't see them as equivalent, is that growing big trees don't scare you.
All that is necessary is sunlight, water, and decent soil. Hyracotherium started as a small browsing animal and evolved over time into a large grazing animal. All that is necessary is mutation and natural selection.
That's been directly observed. Sorry, but observed phenomena say that you are wrong.
No, you're wrong about that. The bacteria observed by Barry Hall, for example, evolved a new irreducibly complex enzyme system by mutation and natural selection. You're denying what's directly observed. There's a word for such thinking, and it's not "inquisitive."
Interesting claim. Let's see your data.
No, that's observably wrong, too. Repeated observations show that mutation and natural selection frequently result in increased fitness. Would you like some more examples?
Hall's bacteria retained the old enzyme, but evolved an entirely new, regulated system. Let's see your numbers showing that it was not an increase in complexity.
Sounds interesting. Show us your numbers.
And yet Hall's bacteria did several such mutations in less than a year, producing that new enzyme system. If reality doesn't agree with your reasoning, isn't that an important clue for you?
See above. Let's see what you have. Looks like more creationist fairy tales.
