[QUOTE="Guy Threepwood, post: 76255847, member: 423388"] Not true at all. In fact that is one of the principle processes in mutation derived resistance of bacteria- the LOSS of the ability to digest and absorb what would otherwise be poison. It's not a gain of function but a loss of it. And this is what we generally observe empirically in evolution- birds [I]lose[/I] flight, fish [I]lose[/I] sight, some organisms [I]lose[/I] pigment or digestive capabilities through mutations. We all understand how random errors create destruction, decay, degradation, aka entropy- nobody is debating that. We all understand how you turn dinosaurs into muddy puddles- drop a huge rock on them The opposite occurrence is a little bit trickier to explain by random error.. [/QUOTE]
