Darwinism co-opted adaptation because it looked like evolution, and it
is actually scientifically true. The problem is that it has limits.
You realise of course that you have just demonstrated that you have not even read the opening paragraph properly and also confirmed what I predicted. Here are the relevant words again: "and before anyone says anything about his use of the term "evolution" in astronomy, as Spike explains, he's just using the term in the same way that many secular media have done:"
This goes back to an argument from another thread. Gases in space
cannot be made to compress to the point of becoming stars. If the
hydrogen atoms were water molecules, you could not cause them
to become dense enough tocause rain.
If abiogenesis happened, it was not one step, but the end of a long series of events.
Evolution.
Rocks to goo to molecules toproteins to rna to life.
The only problem is that like every evolution tale, it's impossible.

Creationists confused!?For any creationists, confused about the term "evolution" meaning different things in different disciplines, you could always use Darwin's term "descent with modification." Could save a lot of embarrassment.
What are those limits? What is the mechanism that drives these limits? How do you test for it? Explain your experiment in detail.
By saying genetic mutations and natural selection have limits is like saying you are capable of walking to the end of your driveway but it is impossible for you to walk 3 miles to the store.
Question: is abiogenesis a part of evolution?I don't know who told you that, AV1611, but it is way, way off. The planets did not just appear fully formed, they evolved over time. Part of the problem here is that an argument started over how to use the term "evolution." Basically, it is used to denote a change in the "essence" of the thing. Since the universe is qualitatively changing moment to moment, it is in a continual state of flux or evolution. And so are we. No thinker thinks twice.
Only in a colloquial fashion. Nothing to do with the Scientific Theory of Evolution
there is no scientific theory of evolution. only philosophic
Why? Besides the fact that it may sound weird, what actually prevents it?
left handed proteins, protein folding. the fact that proteins break down
too fast.
I keep seeing this "Darwinism" word. I'm not sure whether it's supposed to be a shorthand for "Darwin's original work on Evolution and Natural Selection" or a backhanded swipe at the ToE by making it sound like a some sort of religion.
nothing so sinister. Can't confuse it with the other evolution theories.
the only problem is they have even less credibility.
Sure they can. Happening all the time. Right now, even. More to the point, what would keep gasses in space from compressing to that level? I mean, gravity works just fine on gasses. We know this. Get enough gas in one spot, it draws more gas there. Then more. Then more. What would keep it from compressing, assuming there's enough there to start with and you've got a long, long LONG time to wait?

It requires a lot more gravity then any planet can muster.If gases could attract other gases strongly enough to become suns, then
every planet should have done so long ago. Anything with a dense core
should have sucked up all the gases.
More like there is a fence around your property that
you cannot pass. You can walk any direction, but only
about the same distance from the center
Why do you think GMO's are the big thing now? Because
you have to directly change the genes to get past the
natural limits of heredity.

Any problem with the title of this textbook?
I do not demand that. I agree with you. We do not see these things happen. That is all I am saying.
In faith, this is OK. In science, this is fatal. What I am saying is that biological evolution is far far far from being a scientific theory.
So, biology should be the last one to be qualified in using the term: evolution.
I can see a rock evolves outside. Can anyone see a dog evolves in a zoo?
I do not want to push this. But I want you to learn: If not monkey, what is it? Spell out the species name and explicitly say that it evolved into human.
Funny how you first say that you don't demand eons of evolution to be condensed into a lab experiment and then in the next breath ask if anyone has seen dogs evolve in a zoo.
Your dishonesty knows no bounds.
Primates.
We share ancestors with monkeys. We didn't evolve from monkeys.
Not that you care though. I predict that within 2 months (if it even takes that long) you will be repeating that biologists claim that "humans evolved from monkeys".
Why is it logical?
