Each different created kind clearly must have descended from a common pair couple using criteria per program.

Secondly, I’ve had chickens, and if I were the creator of any living things that desire to mate I can see no reason to begin with more than the (2) necessary to reproduce more.

So explain to me what selection pressure, in a competitive natural environment in which only the fittest survive, would select for useless imitations of functioning sex organs? You do realise this applies to any two or more mutually inter-dependent organs, such as the respiratory and cardiovascular systems? How can you have functioning lungs without a functioning cardiovascular system? How can you have a functioning cardiovascular system without oxygen from... lungs?

Жыл бұрын

​@@FeedThemCake Yes, a mutation must be selected for in order for it to propagate among a population. Having a selection pressure for a gene just means that it makes an individual more likely to survive and reproduce, which makes the gene more common in a given population as it's passed down across generations. As I have said, there is no selection pressure for intersex individuals because it does not make people more likely to survive and reproduce. It isn't even hereditary so even if it were favourable, there would be no way for it to pass from parent to offspring. That's why intersex people are a minority. For a person to display multiple sex organs, the male and female sex organs don't need to "occur in the same instant in time and within the same population" because they both already exist. Our physical features aren't randomly generated every generation, we inherit them from our parents. That's why we have men and women. Boys are born male because they inherited male sex organs, not because the male sex organs spontaneously occurred, and the same goes for girls. The only difference for people with multiple sex organs is that they inherit both genes instead of one. You're attacking a strawman and showing that you don't even bother to do any research about a topic before trying to debate about it. You can't possibly make a good argument if you don't know what you're talking about.

We (humans) label that event 'speciation' as a means of describing the change that has taken place. There are many demonstrated examples of speciation. Until you can demonstrate evidence of some sort of barrier to natural selection preventing the changing of one organism to a point where it can no longer freely interbreed with others sharing common ancestry (meaning change can only occur within the artificially applied label 'species'), then your assertion is without evidence base and can be dismissed.

“Modern multicellular animals make their first uncontested appearance in the fossil record some 570 million years ago - and with a bang, not a protracted crescendo. This ‘Cambrian explosion’ marks the advent (at least into direct evidence) of virtually all major groups of modern animals - and all within the minuscule span, geologically speaking, of a few million years.” - Gould, Stephen J.,Wonderful Life: The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History, 1989, p. 23-24. “How this earliest chordate stock evolved, what stages of development it went through to eventually give rise to truly fishlike creatures we do not know. Between the Cambrian when it probably originated, and the Ordovician when the first fossils of animals with really fishlike characteristics appeared, there is a gap of perhaps 100 million years which we will probably never be able to fill.” Francis Downes Ommanney, The Fishes, Life Nature Library (New York: Time, Inc., 1963), p. 60. "The known fossil record fails to document a single example of phyletic evolution accomplishing a major morphologic transition." - Dr. Steven M. Stanley, evolutionist “Despite the bright promise that paleontology provides a means of ‘seeing’ evolution, it has presented some nasty difficulties for evolutionists the most notorious of which is the presence of ‘gaps’ in the fossil record. Evolution requires intermediate forms between species and paleontology does not provide them.” David B. Kitts (School of Geology and Geophysics, University of Oklahoma), “Paleontology and Evolutionary Theory,” Evolution, Vol. 28, September 1974, p. 467. “But fossil species remain unchanged throughout most of their history and the record fails to contain a single example of a significant transition.” David S. Woodruff, “Evolution: The Paleobiological View,” Science, Vol. 208, 16 May 1980, p. 716. “All paleontologists know that the fossil record contains precious little in the way of intermediate forms; transitions between major groups are characteristically abrupt.” Gould, “The Return of Hopeful Monsters,” p. 23. "The absence of fossil evidence for intermediary stages between major transitions in organic design, indeed our inability, even in our imagination, to construct functional intermediates in many cases, has been a persistent and nagging problem for gradualistic accounts of evolution.” - Stephen Jay Gould, “Is a New and General Theory of Evolution Emerging?” Paleobiology, Vol. 6, No. 1, 1980, p. 127. “There is no fossil record establishing historical continuity of structure for most characters that might be used to assess relationships among phyla.” - Katherine G. Field et al., “Molecular Phylogeny of the Animal Kingdom,” Science, Vol. 239, 12 February 1988, p. 748. “The absence of any known series of such intermediates imposes severe restrictions on morphologists interested in the ancestral source of angiosperms [flowering plants] and leads to speculation and interpretation of homologies and relationships on the basis of the most meager circumstantial evidence.” - Charles B. Beck, Origin and Early Evolution of Angiosperms (New York: Columbia University Press, 1976), p. 5. “The origin of angiosperms, an ‘abominable mystery’ to Charles Darwin, remained so 100 years later and is little better today.” - Colin Patterson et al., “Congruence between Molecular and Morphological Phylogenies,” Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, Vol. 24, 1993, p. 170. "Paleontologists have been insisting that their record is consistent with slow, steady, gradual evolution where I think that privately they've known for over a hundred years that such is not the case." - Niles Eldridge "250,000 species of plants and animals recorded and deposited in museums throughout the world did not support the gradual unfolding hoped for by Darwin." - Dr. David Raup, curator of geology at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, "Conflicts Between Darwinism and Paleontology" "With natural selection operating in a changing environment as an agent of adaptation, we expect to see changes at the organismal, ultimately physiological and morphological, level. How, though, can we explain the paradoxical situation in which environments change, even dramatically, but organisms do not?" - Dr David Wake, Evolutionist "Everybody knows the fossil record doesn’t provide much evidence for gradualism; it is full of gaps and discontinuities… most species don’t change. They may get a little bigger or bumpier, but they remain the same species. This remarkable stasis has generally been ignored. It if doesn’t agree with your ideas, you don’t talk about it… the fossil record doesn’t show gradual change, and every paleontologist has known that ever since Cuvier." - Gould, Stephen Jay, lecture at Hobart & William Smith College, 14/2/1980. "In virtually all cases a new taxon appears for the first time in the fossil record with most definitive features already present, and practically no known stem-group forms." - Dr. T.S. Kemp (Curator of Zoological Collections at Oxford University) , Fossils and Evolution, Oxford University, Oxford University Press, p246, 1999 "Paleontologists had long been aware of a seeming contradiction between Darwin's postulate of gradualism, confirmed by the work of population genetics, and the actual findings of paleontology. Following phyletic lines through time seemed to reveal only minimal gradual changes but no clear evidence for any change of a species into a different genus or for the gradual origin of an evolutionary novelty. Anything truly novel always seemed to appear quite abruptly in the fossil record." - Mayr, Ernst, Emeritus Professor of Zoology, Harvard University "No wonder paleontologists shied away from evolution for so long. It seems never to happen. Assiduous collecting up cliff faces yields zigzags, minor oscillations, and the very occasional slight accumulation of change over millions of years, at a rate too slow to really account for all the prodigious change that has occurred in evolutionary history. When we do see the introduction of evolutionary novelty, it usually shows up with a bang, and often with no firm evidence that the organisms did not evolve elsewhere! Evolution cannot forever be going on someplace else. Yet that's how the fossil record has struck many a forlorn paleontologist looking to learn something about evolution." - Eldredge, Niles, Chairman and Curator of Invertebrates, American Museum of Natural History "No intermediate fossils between jawed and jawless forms have been found - early fossils of jawed fishes had jaws, teeth, scales and spines. The origins of jaws and other structures that characterized the early gnathostomes are lost in the fossil record, belonging to some group about which we known nothing. " - Helfman, G.S., B.B. Collette and D.E. Facey. 1997. The Diversity of Fishes. Blackwell Science, MA. 528pp.; p. 157 “Most families, orders, classes, and phyla appear rather suddenly in the fossil record, often without anatomically intermediate forms smoothly interlinking evolutionarily derived descendant taxa with their presumed ancestors.” - Eldredge, Niles, Macro-Evolutionary Dynamics: Species, Niches, and Adaptive Peaks, 1989, p. 22. “There is no fossil record establishing historical continuity of structure for most characters that might be used to assess relationships among phyla.” Katherine G.

Stephen Jay Gould was merely stating what he saw as problems posed to the gradualist conception of evolution, and arguing for a concept known as punctuated equilibrium (speciation involving significant genetic change and species showing little variation over their history). You see, this is one of the reasons that evolutionary theory is bona fide science, because it's open to self-correction, and thus self-criticism. Creationism, by contrast, purports to be absolute truth, and thus is impervious to self-scrutiny.

So let's see. If you were to travel from your house across the country........ Your seen leaving, walking out the door, then you drive the back roads to the highway where the first camera sees you. Then successive cameras pick you up all along the route. Did you make the trip? Silly question right. If tomorrow the missing evidence you cling onto is presented, will you concede? be honest. A collection of often misinterpreted quotes is proof of nothing. There are soooooo many intermediate species, you're either ignorant of this or the creationist mainstay, lying.

Imagine believing these two positions are equally scientifically or truthfully valid.... I don't like to frame this sort of thing as like a good debate between two equal and respectable parties. The zoologist, the naturalist lives in the real world, the creationist lives in cuckoo, anti-reality fantasyland. Ideas dramatically out of touch with reality don't inherently deserve your respect, this whole "everyone's opinions deserve equal respect" shit is obvious nonsense if you just think about it for a second without taking civility as a dogma.

I hope the debate didn't last 5 minutes and ended in favor of David as any 2 hour debate would not. What people (believe) in is micro evolution, change in variation, fur thickness and length, color, beak size, these are evident all around us. Though after millions of unearthed fossils, even Darwin himself would agree that there are no links for macro evolution, one simply cannot blame the fossil record for the missing gaps anymore. Darwin hoped we would find the missing links in the future, we did not. Then you have the irreducibly complex idea which is impossible to get around. Any function in the body either works at once or it's fatal and every change in nature, bindings, proteins, will much more likely be bad than good. Therefore like the Cambrian explosion (where the debate should start), 2/3 of all known Phyla (arrived) at the same time, suggests that the animals came fully functioned. People are very offended by this as evolution is a beautiful fairytale, but if you ask any of the greatest mathematicians that ever lived, they would laugh at the thought of evolution. The chance of it happening (every single time) is largest absurd number one has ever seen. I used to believe in evolution too and I don't believe in god, but this is very clearly a zoo for someone more intelligent than us. The oldest human skeketon is what, 50-200k years old? Then it stops, no links, nothing. Why? 50k years is nothing in terms of evolution, our links are not found, we did not come from apes. If only Darwin himself was alive to put his (theory) at rest. For anyone remotely interested in questioning themselves, read a book/watch a video by Stephen Meyer, a great intellect in this bombfield.

I see a lot of people making fun of and criticizing Harvey Carey. What ha says (ofcourse wrong) absolutely makes sense. Did you at all understand what he said? that a tiny change in an organism would render it infertile? incapable of giving rise to any more offspring/species. As a man of science in 1980 and without overwhelming genetic evidence that we have now, it was very logical to think that complex organs like brain and eyes were designed by someone intelligent. Science makes progress because of such worthy critics.

@schell0118

1980 wasn't the second century BC. It wasn't logical to believe that organs were designed then any more than it is now. Tiny changes in organisms absolutely do not render them infertile. Tiny changes/variations/mutations are what drive evolution. If there had never been tiny changes, all living things would be clones.
