Because all the improvements in fitness we see today are subsets of the information available to create the improved organism. In other words, to make an improvement in fitness information of greater value has to be broken. Two things. First, if you are still arguing that there was a single...

You still have an irrational faith in OOL. :LOL::ROFLMAO::D:LOL:

So funny of you to mention this just when you admit to blind faith in OOL against the evidence. At least the faith I have is consistent with the evidence.

They were there as a threat. If the talks didn't go the way they wanted, they would invade. I thought the talks would go enough their way that they wouldn't need to make good on their threat.

I didn't expect this. Let's hope the west doesn't start a world war but resigns itself to selling the Ukrainians weapons.

Don't be so quick to label one side thugs and a minority. And don't be so quick to think Russia is so much worse than the Ukraine government that a majority didn't want the Russians there. We just don't know. This area has changed flags for centuries. Russia troops were already there for years...

It seems more likely the more he talks.

What's "goo to you development"?

#sadly .....

Sooooooo, about that change that ISN'T over time... :eek:

You don't understand the problem. If your claim were true the LUCA would have had to have the superset of all subsets we see today. You'll have to explain that. And on another note, I'd like to point out that lately people that believe in common descent have changed their rhetoric about the...

Let's start at the top. If we average the number of people killed by government since the advent of inexpensive efficient gun power, it averages over 2 million per year. And to be clear, the government can only pull off those kinds of numbers with guns. So that is the number one thing you have...

It doesn't matter what study you use, so far they all have the same conclusion. Every increase in fitness found so far has been at the expense of some other function. In other words, the DNA of a child organism has, so far, always been a subset of the DNA of the parent. I say "so far" because...

This runs counter to the data. Creating law to stop gun accidents always creates a great deal more accidents and deaths. Guns do not create suicides, and a law to stop suicide by gun would not only not stop suicides, but it would create a lot more death and pain as an unintended consequence...

No, since you were babbling nonsense I just responded with an obvious statement showing the bottom line benefit of having the right of people to defend themselves remain unrestricted. Sure, making policies against the right to defend one's self are implemented because people aren't defending...

That was some pretty unimpressive babbling. Did you know that a few locations in the US account for most of the murders in the US? And they also tend to be locations that have a great deal stricter gun control?

Yes. But what they think you mean is something like "fully automatic guns should be registered" or "guns above a certain size should be illegal" or something like that, while what you mean by reasonable is "people are not allowed to defend themselves with a gun so all guns must be confiscated...

So true. The difference being every Democrat is groomed as an evil person before they are allowed to run while the Republicans are so stupid as to let Trump run.

This explains the idea. There are basically 3 changes that make Lenski's cit+ bacteria. This creates a subset within the DNA. The bottom line being, cit+ bacteria are less fit outside the experimental conditions because it didn't make new citrate processing machinery, it broke existing...

Not only is there no evidence for common descent from a single common ancestor, but there is evidence against it. And there is evidence that intelligent design was involved with life we see today. To your claim that adaptive pressures can cause mutated organisms too survive better: the...
