TheRealSkeptic said:6000 years seems more reasonable then a million.
KerrMetric said:For mileage between oil changes yes, for discussing the age of the human species then no.
TheRealSkeptic said:And your proof is what? The decay curve for measuring rock age? Yeah, that's good stuff. I just wish it was something we can all see. But that's right, we can all just imagine. I'll go watch National Geographic now. Maybe they will slip in a worldview or two while they are describing monkeys.
KerrMetric said:You can't see an electron but I bet you believe the slowly drift along a wire and provide a current don't you?
TheRealSkeptic said:You can test it, it has been shown to conform to a mathematical concept or two. Natural selection has none of that. No one knows what the limits to it are because it's already assumed to be limitless. unfalsifiable.
KerrMetric said:Actually if evolution produced the chimeric nonsense that Creationists ascribe to it in their cartoonlike version of it then that would falsify natural selection.
TheRealSkeptic said:Yeah, and what's the difference between hybridization and speciation?
KerrMetric said:When the hybridisation has resulted in groups that no longer will mate.
TheRealSkeptic said:How does speciation relate to hybridization? Any takers? Or are we going to be talking about pinecones to people? I want a serious answer.
KerrMetric said:Exactly. Or intermediate chimeric forms like half fish/half sheep - an icthyovine if you will.
Oh what, and you do? HAHAHATheRealSkeptic said:You don't even know what natural selection is.
KerrMetric said:I already gave you the answer. Why not, shock - horror, Google. I'm sure there is something on this exact point.
Edx said:Oh what, and you do? HAHAHA
TheRealSkeptic said:HOW DO THE TWO RELATE, YOU SAID NOTHING.
KerrMetric said:yes I did say something.
OK, gawd, in case you still don't get natural selection, here's a brief summary: It has no "finish line", it has no "goal", it's non random, and it happens every day.TheRealSkeptic said:How is it that natural selection is purposeless, yet the word 'selection' implies purpose?
