ok zero

you said you did not want to argue evolution again

i also do not

this will be my last post in this thread

Lets forget about all the proofs there are that evolution happend for a minute.

i forgot all the “proofs a long time ago, one by one as they crumbled.

Microevolution (small physical changes in animals shapes and colors caused by genentic mutations) has been observed in nature many times over.

yes, of oourse, you are talking about natural selection. they basically took the essential concept and called it by a new name “microevolution” as if this implies it is simply a small step towards “macroevolution” very clever indeed.

of course there is natural selection! it simply means that given variation within a species, the variations that engender increased survival capabilities, will slowly develop higher concentrations in the gene pool. this is logical and Pashut.

(by the way these changes are far more extensive than “shapes and colors”)

(and by the way very very few of these changes are caused by “genetic mutations”, the vast majority are preexisting genetic variations and a few by errors during meiosis such as crossing-over and translocation errors. genetic mutations, which are the only mechanism capable of adding something truly “new” to the gene pool are almost ALWAYS injurious)

“microevolution” (i even hate to write that deliberately misleading doublespeak word) does not add anything NEW (with rare exceptions, and of course the new characteristic has to function symphonically with the complex harmonious preexisting system of characteristics)

Do you have any logical reason for beleiving that these small gentic mutations would stop adding up at the point were the animal would be so changed in appearance (and geneticly for that matter) that we would calassify the animal as another “specie”?

well let me ask you a rhetorical question: do you have any logical reason for believing that making gradual small improvements in the microsoft word program could add up until the software would become an aviation simulation program?
