Amusing but sad. You still think pictures are evidence.
The picture shows how we obtained brussel sprouts, broccoli, kale, cabbage, cauliflower,......
And we obtained them in the exact way your quote I was responding to says doesn't happen.
They all come from a wild plant species. We created them by using the processes of evolution and selection. They evolved.
How did you do that? Do you use a magic wand that can overcome the laws of genetics?
Do you really not understand that evidence includes HOW it can happen?
No you didn't.
You have pictures and say "SEE." That is meaningless.
How did you do that?

Did you know the banana was created by god to fit perfectly in the palm of your hand?Do you really not understand that evidence includes HOW it can happen?

It's a very Comfort-able fit.Did you know the banana was created by god to fit perfectly in the palm of your hand?
speciation does not result in a new species.
Amusing. You can't even understand such a simple, obvious proof. That is worse than amusing, it ispathetic.

If you plant corn every year, and each time buy the same genetically engineered hybrid, rather than using the seeds from the previous years crop, it proves that there is no such thing as heritable variation and so evolution cannot occur.I'm sorry - how was you telling me to plant corn 'proof' of anything?
Ah, I stand corrected...If you plant corn every year, and each time buy the same genetically engineered hybrid, rather than using the seeds from the previous years crop, it proves that there is no such thing as heritable variation and so evolution cannot occur.
Still curious as to why professional creationists are so likely to engage in these shallow and easily debunked/disproven claims.Medical doctor Elizabeth Mitchell writes, in an essay on the 'Answers in Genesis' site in a caption of a Tiktaalik artistic rendition (note the bolding and/or italics I added for emphasis in both quotes):
In fact, the evolutionary imagination accords this fish’s hind-parts so much power, they believe it was ready for “pelvic-propelled locomotion”1 across the terrestrial world and up the evolutionary tree.
The 1 links to this article:
N. Shubin et al., “Pelvic girdle and fin of Tiktaalik roseae,” Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (13 January 2014)
wherein one finds this passage - the only passage in which one finds the word "propelled":
Tiktaalik reveals that features contributing to the trend toward pelvic-propelled locomotion in the tetrapodomorph stem began emerging in finned taxa before being enhanced in more derived digited forms. Indeed, this trend has deep roots or parallel trajectories: diverse lungfish, both fossil
and extant, have pectoral and pelvic girdles that are subequal in size (17).
Why do professional creationists lie like this? Is it because they have brainwashed their target audiences into bowing to their perceived authority so it doesn't matter?
Or are most of them just incompetent and don't know any better?
This is not, sadly, a rarity. YEC Dr.David Menton had written commentary on the pelvic bones of Tiktaalik, declaring them insufficient for land-based locomotion. Problem - at the time he wrote the article, the pelvic bones had not yet been discovered.
YEC Dr. Jeff Tomkins wrote an essay declaring that humans and chimps are really only about 70% similar, and thus could not have a shared ancestry. It was soon discovered that he had done 2 things - that he had used a version of BLASTn with known problems, and that he had constrained the program to return only sequence matches of prescribed lengths that were 100% matches - so if the program found a sequence in human that matched chimp in 9 out of 10 bases, it would come back as 0% identical, virtually guaranteeing that what he found would have a lower % identity than other analyses. When confronted with these problems, Tomkins doubled down and called his critics names (this played out on Reddit, not sure I want to link to it).
There are many other examples - but one has to wonder why, if they are so sure that they are correct, why do they engage in these acts of dishonesty?
And if they are acts of incompetence, why should their followers trust them?
Still curious as to why professional creationists are so likely to engage in these shallow and easily debunked/disproven claims.
Also curious as to why so many creationists will go through embarrassing mental gymnastics to try to defend these people when they get caught.
Anawesyagottadu is take the word "creation" off the term and:Amazing creation SCIENCE!!!!
I'll say this much: I wish they would stop doing that.Also curious as to why so many creationists will go through embarrassing mental gymnastics to try to defend these people when they get caught.
Anawesyagottadu is take the word "creation" off the term and:
1. The Titanic wasn't unsinkable.
2. Thalidomide wasn't a prenatal wonder drug.
3. The Challenger wasn't GO for throttle-up.
4. The Deepwater Horizon wasn't safe for drilling.
5. Pluto wasn't our 9th planet.
6. L'Aquila wasn't safe to go back to.
7. The FIU footbridge wasn't destined to save lives.
Amazing misleading SCIENCE!!!!
And you are once again using tragic events to boost up your own self. Sad. Just... so, so sad.
Funny how you still can't distinguish between SCIENCE and journalism, management and pre-SCIENCE architecture. And better yet that you ignore the failings of the bible.Anawesyagottadu is take the word "creation" off the term and:

2. Thalidomide wasn't a prenatal wonder drug.

What's your point?Point 5 - Pluto was out 9th planet. Please remind us all how many planets are identified in the bible? What number is Pluto?
