im really not sure how skin color originated, mutations probably, but i still consider that micro evolution.
hah, way to jumble contextNathan Poe said:Viral infection is a mechanism for sickness..... in theory. What's your point?
evolution that does not refute creation - yesthe_gloaming said:That's fine with me. In the original post you didn't discriminate between micro and macro, and of course in humans micro evolution is all you will find evidence for in a period of 6,000 years. So have you conceded evolution (even if it hasn't resulted in a new hominid species) has occured over the past 6,000 years ?
What context? You were drifting into the "It's only a theory" argument.brightlights said:hah, way to jumble context
Is it now? And what exactly is the "law" of gravity?brightlights said:some theories are much more established than others. gravity, btw, is a law
And the theory has been validated by loads of evidence.brightlights said:in theory
i dunno, barriers between species?Nathan David said:And the theory has been validated by loads of evidence.
But that's beside the point. What you described with the development of darker skin is evolution: a change in the characteristics of a population over time. If darker skin can become prominent in a population because it confers a survival/reproductive advantage, what's to stop any other trait from becoming prominent in a population?

There have been reports of the reverse.brightlights said:try to pregnate a female ape with human sperm
really? legitimate ones?Tachocline said:There have been reports of the reverse.
Legitimate probably not. Let's face it, that's a very touchy subject. But there have been reports. The famous case of a chimp called Philip I believe turned out to be false on DNA examination (though he looked mixed) but there have been other reports over the years.brightlights said:really? legitimate ones?
