Will a platypus do? or will it just be labeled a "monotreme" (i.e., "specialized") and forgotten?
The platypus is right where it belongs, it's a early egg laying mammal. Come on this is one of the best known pratts.

Gets a bill for rent and taxes.
I don't believe that one bit.If a crocoduck were found, all of evolutionary biology would be dumped immediately.
Not hardly. You'd have to pick a creator god from a LONG list of losers, and that would take years and years of peer reviewing.Mr Laurier said:We would all become creationists.
It took a few years after my de-conversion from Christianity to find a winning God, but not as long as your suggesting.You'd have to pick a creator god from a LONG list of losers, and that would take years and years of peer reviewing.
I never said otherwise. I simply said they labeled it a "monotreme" and swept it under the rug.The platypus is right where it belongs,
Okay. It's an early egg-laying mammal. Neat-o.loveofourlord said:... it's a early egg laying mammal.
You're focusing on the animal itself, and not paying attention to what I'm saying.loveofourlord said:Come on this is one of the best known pratts.
Are you a qualified taxonomist?It took a few years after my de-conversion from Christianity to find a winning God, but not as long as your suggesting.
Should a crockoduck be found, the theory of evolution would be falsified. It would have to be modified or replaced altogether--by another scientific theory. What would not happen is a rush to embrace a theologically dubious interpretation of Genesis.I never said otherwise. I simply said they labeled it a "monotreme" and swept it under the run.
Should a crocoduck per se be found, I'm sure they would just label it a monotreme, a cryptid, or something that was exposed to radiation, or some other such bologna.Okay. It's an early egg-laying mammal. Neat-o.You're focusing on the animal itself, and not paying attention to what I'm saying.
And I'm Genghis Khan.Should a crockoduck be found, the theory of evolution would be falsified.
Despite all the evidence you have been presented...I don't believe that one bit.
Given that the only creator god who's worshipers have posited a crocoduck, is the god of YECery. You would be almost correct. Its a SHORT list of losers. And the only name on the list is "Jehovah/Yawah".Not hardly. You'd have to pick a creator god from a LONG list of losers, and that would take years and years of peer reviewing.
I like to think of myself more as a qualified Lover of God.Are you a qualified taxonomist?
Yes it would, and everybody would admit it--and go to work on a new or modified theory. I think you would call that "sweeping it under the rug."And I'm Genghis Khan.
Well if it took a few years for a "qualified Lover of God" to find "a winning God," think how long it would take scientists, who would have to peer review each other? not to mention having a knock-down/drag-out over who would get the Nobell Prize.I like to think of myself more as a qualified Lover of God.
Scientist aren’t looking for God. That’s not their job. That’s our job as Lovers of God.Well if it took a few years for a "qualified Lover of God" to find "a winning God," think how long it would take scientists, who would have to peer review each other? not to mention having a knock-down/drag-out over who would get the Nobell Prize.
well we DID find the duckcroc does that count? :> hehe Nice to see someone use their own stupid strawman back at them hehe :> Surprised no ones tried to disprove evolution using the platypus in ages here.
spoke too soon...hehe :>
Knocking on castle door: "Hello!? I'm a commoner, and I believe your book of mythology! Carry out your agenda from it on me, please!"
I think you have this backward. The rulers got converted by missionaries and then decided that their subjects would join the christian church. So it's more:
"Here's you new god peasant! I have this priest and his book. Follow his teachings or he'll use the book on you."
At least that's what this product of 50+ generations of forced indoctrination sees.
Convert or die?"Here's you new god peasant! I have this priest and his book. Follow his teachings or he'll use the book on you."
Convert or die?
You must have the wrong book in mind.
Sound advice.You're focusing on the animal itself, and not paying attention to what I'm saying.
What? the Koran? or the Bible?Nice strawman!
