It is amazing that you think this demonstrates it.

I'm sorry, but this just doesn't cut it. If you expect people to take your opinion over the opinion of biologists who are not only formally educated but have spent their careers researching this, then you need to explain why this is not what they purport it to be. So try again.

Explain how you think it meets my demand.

Your name calling is irrelevant. If this aspect of the theory is evidenced then it shouldn't be difficult for you to present it. Yet all you do is bluster nonsense.

LoL, explain something to me that I am physically incapable of understanding....

Seriously dude either ENGAGE or quit the trolling.

I'm unsubscribing. It's been fun, but some people are simply too stupid to understand some things and I'm now aware that attempts to educate said people are merely exercises in futility.

He's completely petrified to answer me too, did you notice? And I'm sure I know why, which means I know the answer he'd have to give, but is too frightened to.

Indeed. This thread has turned into:

educated people: bananas are yellow
troll: PROVE to me that bananas are yellow
educated people: here's a spectral diagram of yellow and all of the other colors
troll: Yeah, but PROVE to me that yellow is yellow

I cant even fathom what it must be like to be the stupidest person (buckshat) everywhere you go. So stupid in fact, not a single person ever takes your side on anything, yet you insist you are the "right one" LOL Ignorance truly is bliss i guess.

I think it's great that buckshot is proudly representing conservatism for what it is. Particularly when it's obvious no other degenerate has the balls to admit he makes them all look so awful.

This board isn't the arbiter of truth. A completely irrelevant point to bring up.

No, I do not need to do every calculation in that case. Now all you have to do is show that observed "evolutionary changes" adds up like that.

You know what you get when +1 enough times?

Assuming linearity is your problem.

Nope. Still not gonna talk your way out of a math problem. Talk will get you nowhere while math will get you to the moon. You can go nowhere or you can reach for the stars. Damn man in spirit you are allready that fossil fuel we're about to stop pumping out of the ground, forever obsolete.

Not buying insufficient evidence for a ridiculously grand claim isn't not understanding it.

I promised myself I wouldn't insult people anymore, but this is pretty stupid. This was a test.

The weak arguments are simply weak. You can't explain why you believe this nonsense and you get upset and start calling people names.

All I'm asking is that you people who think this is a scientific fact and that you're dumb by definition if you don't believe it to do is to demonstrate that the mechanism of mutation and natural selection could actually build nervous systems, sexual reproduction, flight, blood clotting cascades, brains, consciousness, whatever else and you can't do it. It is an axiom of your faith that can't be questioned.

The only sure way for you would be to stop posting entirely.


Pretty much every post you make is.


And you failed. Miserably. Again.
Yes, that would be one way. I didn't fail because I didn't insult him. His post, yeah, I called that stupid. But I'm heartened that you don't think all of my posts are stupid.

And you can, but only by invoking the supernatural, right?

You have been given evidence and your responses show no indication that you even understand it.

For example, humans have the same tail gene as mice thus proving that we have a common ancestor with mice. This gene is almost always suppressed in humans but very rarely a human is born with a tail. If God created us, why would he put in a gene for a tail and then deactivate it?

These points do not require even an average intelligence to understand. When you pretend not to understand them, you are in effect attempting to convince us that your intelligence is below average. Why don't you just attempt the refute the points?
