hey guess what

words have meaning

when someone lies about what words mean and keeps propping up strawmen, they're the ones instigating semantics arguments

tpk owned you

yeah that poor flimsy strawman never had a chance :(

But you know what? Just for giggles:

I assume this was meant to read "how fast things evolve".

The theory of evolution does not posit that there is one global value for this.

It fluctuates massively as a result of whether or not there is anything prompting a change (such as a change in environment), see below:

One could fill libraries with the research on this topic, but you can start here:

See above for some examples.

Quote:

Genetic variation is caused by:

- mutation
- random mating between organisms
- random fertilization
- crossing over (or recombination) between chromatids of homologous chromosomes during meiosis
Again, decades of research available, but you can get started by reading up on those terms.

The theory of evolution does not posit that we evolved from the monkeys of the present day. Rather, humans and present day monkeys share a common ancestor species (and humans share a much closer ancestor with apes).

i already posted the definition. And so you admit you dont study or understand evolution or what it means then make claims it cannot be observed.

Adaptation is an observed fact, not evolution.
im not even sure wtf youre even trying to say anymore.

inherited traits, allow for adaptation.

do offspring inherit their parents traits? Would favorable traits be more successfully inherited? Congratulations youve observed evolution.

I mean youre asking why there are still monkeys this is embarrassing dude. How can you say evolution is not a fact when you cant even define what it is?

Atheism is what happens when you read the bible. Christianity is what happens when somebody else reads it for you.

Why are you awkwardly writing me with choice comments/quotes that I made towards Amadeus when I made several comments towards you directly on page 16 that you have failed to address?

https://i.imgur.com/Jrgjb5S.png

For someone that claims he is knowledgeable on the topic of evolution, you sure seem to be struggling to address any of my thoughtful discussion shown above. If you do not counter any of my points I will just assume that you were simply unable to.

You claim that witnessing something that is rather called "genetic inheritance" is the same as witnessing evolution when it is not. They are two entirely different things.

Your argument is basically the following:

"Observing the passing of genetic traits from parent to child, is the same as watching the gradual slow process of them becoming a tree-hopping amphibious night-vision neon-skinned super advanced creature with 6 eyes, a three foot long tongue, and genius level intelligence that prefers Hawaiian coffee and Russian instagram models over the course of millions and millions of years." -Pagy

And no, just because something inherits helpful and successful traits does not dictate its automatic success, and in many cases, the reverse will happen.

There are people in this world that have way better DNA traits than me that simply get hit by a bus and die. I easily outlived them with my inferior genetics.

This is the law of: "**** happens."

Even if evolution were true, could it outrun the law of "**** happens?" I'm not convinced and I would like you to prove to me otherwise using a scientific experiment in a controlled environment that is testable, observable, and subject to reproduction while having different variables introduced to see the results.

The man that is mostly famous for proposing the theory of evolution struggled horribly with mental illness all his life. I'm not eager to go to the mentally ill for my sources of truth as you are. Would you also choose a guidance counselor or therapist that is quite sick indeed and spends most of his time in a mental hospital?

Evolution, at its roots, is magical, supernatural, requires blind faith based on weak deduction through evidence, and it is entirely unscientific, and by that I mean, it defies natural laws of the universe as we know them.

Evolution obviously cannot be observed by the human eye. If you wish to prove to me otherwise you are welcome to introduce me to a friend that has seen the full transformation of one animal into an entirely new and totally different one (i.e. a frog becoming a dog). I accept personal testimony as a valid form of ascertaining truth.

I only ask for measurable, observable, testable, repeatable truth. If you can't provide any of that for me, then why would I ever be inclined to believe you? And why would you ridicule someone and say they are "embarrassing themselves" by asking scrutinizing questions to see if a theory holds up? Seems awfully emotional and unscientific to me. It also seems like a wasted opportunity.

Pagy's response:

A) If the sun is so big, why does it look so small?
B) LOL you embarrassing yourself by asking that!

Normal scientific response:

A) If the sun is so big, why does it look so small?
B) Oh, good question. That is because it is very far away.

Generally when people shy away from questions and attempt to ridicule the person talking to them by claiming that they are "embarrassing themselves", it is a sign that they have no answer to the question. This is further emphasized by your unwillingness to answer my very basic, simple, investigate question. You still have yet to provide an answer.

If you claim that a puddle of slime can become a 7-headed-hydra over time if you just "leave it alone for millions of years," then I would like to ask for proof using the scientific method of that being the case.

If the theory of evolution is so flawed, then how come we can predict where and how deep to dig for a specific kind of fossil?
