It seems that way. It most certainly is. Macroevolution and microevolution have always been evolution no matter how you want to package it. A bluejay taking a crap on right divider's windshield is not evidence of evolution, it's just good aim. Evolution is such a revolutionary and...

Fun Fact: There was three billion years where life was made-up of microbial mass only.

There could be more than one abiogenesisi event and we would still be talking about evolution. They add an extra point to the definition because they think it makes their cause easier to achieve. The definition was established then you added a phrase to it. And, evolution is a specific kind...

The hypothesis is a guess. The work with the Bible and contemporary documents is the analysis, and an attempted conclusion on whether the guess was right. The evidence is fascinating.

Care to justify? Care to justify? Care to justify?

Speciation and evolution are related but different concepts. Evolution is demonstrated in the lab and in the field without issue. Speciation hs been hard. A few labs claim to have observed it but appear not to have held up to scrutiny by other labs. There is about a one third chance that...

This is entirely consistent. We discuss what we believe and show why. I value evidence. I also value when people are tentative in their beliefs when they have no evidence.

It is when the increase in function outweighs the deficit when we see real population change. It takes more time than any living lab team has. There are more extinct species than extant species. I am glad you are open to evidence. We do not have to settle. We cant test hypotheses using the...

Semantics will not save you. In biology, evolution is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations and relies on the process of natural selection. This has been observed and demonstrated in the lab. Sorry that you do not like that. It would be grand to see...

This is a discussion forum. My understanding of evolution is imperfect as is our best understanding of evolution. I share my thoughts and show support of varying weight. You share your thoughts totally unsupported by evidence. God is a first cause is a thought devoid of evidence. It is not...

The top ten states for divorce are all red states. Actually nine and ten are purple.

I believe the observation holds when race is controlled. I will check that. Another explanation is that religious folks more generally have poor insight and external locus of control. They do not safeguard themselves from doing evil things because they do not think evil things can be done...

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.
