Structures evolve together rather than one and then another. In tandem coordinated function makes more sense. Also, consider previous substrates needed for development but no longer necessary after. Rabbits are hid-gut fermenters making double digestion necessary. So, they eat their poop...

The South has a higher percent of murders and divorces, while New England has lower numbers. The South is much more religious than New England. My hypothesis is the greater the misbehavior, the more that people seek out religion to excuse themselves. How do you explain the inverse correlation?

I have a new policy of nondisclosure of personal information. Even positive or neutral disclosures are turned against you in debate forums when sparring partners are of low caliber.

Let us review the data sometime. That would depend on the law. I am for creating a greater civil duty to store and track guns more carefully for gun owners. When someone's gun results in a death or injury that reasonable containment measures would have prevented, the gun owner should have...

I did not profess to be wise. I simply could not resist to respond to Righty when he claimed that I know nothing of science. Did it give him pause about his own ability to accurately assess the abilities of an opponent. Not at all. Righty's reponses are largely knee-jerk and canned. He does...

If so then why did you ask me to explain my thinking?

Amazingly. it is possible to defend yourself without a gun.

So, you cannot comprehend the distinction? Nope. You are adding value-laden judgment unnecessarily. They just change it. Corrupt is your judgment. Not hardly. Sometimes. Sometimes not. Every mutation opens the system to receive new information. Because you say so? Start a thread on...

But you said leftists generally do.

Okay. I will add and more serious bodily injury. Guns do more damage than they prevent when you consider accidents, completed suicides, self-defense, and mistaken self-defense death and injury.

Inter-individual change versus intra-individual change, right? Mutations increase the variability in the population. They can be neutral, beneficial, or harmful - as we already agreed. Most mutations DO NOT result in damage. Most are relatively neutral. Some are neutral and become beneficial...

Yes.

More guns means more gun deaths and more deaths overall.

This is a flaw in your cognitive functioning. You have real trouble seeing reality on a continuous scale, preferring dichotomous or categorical vision. You should love the concept of species actually. It is a helpful concept, but in actuality all living things exist on a continuum. An...

Mam, I cannot answer your question.

This is true at a simplistic level. But across the span of time and space we can have a different vision. Please keep in mind individuals do not evolve, populations do. It is entirely consistent with it. It is a helpful construct because related creatures come to a point where they can no...

Wrong. Your pompous conclusionary declarations mean nothing. It cannot be said that Speciation has been clearly observed in the lab, but evolution involving a clear adaptation to the environment that is not directed by intelligence per se has been observed in the lab and documented in the...

I do not see what your commentary has to do with the main intent of the study. Here, the study looked at whether an earlier study that claimed to witness a speciation event involving bacteria was sound in its conclusions. This study saw similar adaptation over a shorter period. The first was...

>><Was Ray Epps a Martian? >>>Sir, I cannot answer that question.

Sure, it is complicated and convoluted to figure out how coordination of structures could occur. But, in my estimation, it is not as problematic as the spontaneous generation of cell precursors. Similar questions to yours from the opposite angle present a quandary over why a designer would...
