There are supposedly six kinds of evolution. One has been been observed. That makes belief that all these six are true... a leap of faith![/quote] Wrong, there's only one kind, the differential survival of organisms following their naturally occurring variation--a process called termed "natural selection." It serves as the corner stone of modern Biology. Offspring of organisms differ from one another and from their parents in ways that are heritable--that is, they can pass on the differences genetically to their own offspring. Furthermore, organisms in nature typically produce more offspring than can survive and reproduce given the constraints of food, space, and other environmental resources. If a particular off spring has traits that give it an advantage in a particular environment, that organism will be more likely to survive and pass on those traits. As differences accumulate over generations, populations of organisms diverge from their ancestors. [quote]You want us to believe that we evolved from single celled organisms,[/quote] Evolution doesn't deal with the explanation for the origin of life, it deals with the diversity of life. It pays to know what you're arguing against before opening your mouth. [quote]yet the only mutations we HAVE observed have made the genetic code simpler, never more complex. That makes belief that we evolved from single celled organisms.... A leap of faith![/quote] Provide examples son. [quote]And yet, even if the above were true, where did that single celled organism come from? Evolutionary origin proponents can't answer that one at ALL! The discovery of DNA sent the theory from implausible to downright impossible. But some people don't want to believe in G-d. So to hold onto this DISbelief, they attach themselves to a theory with NO explanation for how life started on the planet... A theory which, in fact, flies in the FACE of accepted scientific fact (biogenesis- life only comes from other life), making the whole thing... A leap of faith![/quote] Life's origins do have an explanation. you just get your information from crackpot websites, such as Answersingenesis.com, trueorigin.org, etc. False lies without a credibility of science behind their claims. You need to demonstrate how the discovery of DNA refutes evolutionary science, if anything it's one of it's strongest pieces of evidence. [quote]There's nothing wrong with having faith in something you can't prove. Just don't fool yourself into thinking there is evidence for this stuff, when the evidence says it's impossible.<br><br>Post edited by: MattBob_SquarePants, at: 2007/03/06 12:04[/quote] If there isn't evidence for evolution and how species evolve and mutate then explain the following ( which according to you, is nto evidence) 1) Antibiotics 2) The Nylon bug 3) Why humans and primates share the exact same mutation that prevents both groups from producing vitamin C. How do you explain the incredibly small odds that we share the exact same mutation with one of our 'primate' relatives, let alone that they share them with the other primates as well? 4) Endogenous retroviral inserts
