I suppose it would be nice to know the evolution of the process in order to develop a comprehensive theory of spontaneous generation, but as far as biological evolution goes it is irrelevant. Quote:

The motion of the pendulum is predetermined. It follows physical laws. The predetermination of the pendulum's position at any time has nothing to do with God. Quote:

Okay. You fucking say this over and over again like a retarded broken record. I say a retarded record because it's a record that keeps repeating something THAT ISN'T FUCKING TRUE. I've presented the evidence. You refuse to acknowledge it. Since you insist on doing this, I would like you to either rebuke these each point by point, not by simply saying "DURR DURR ITS NOT TRUE DURRR" but by backing it up with information, and evidence where necessary, or acknowledging that they are valid examples of evidence for evolution. Any point that you fail to rebuke, I will then take as you saying that it is not possible for you to rebuke them and we will therefore agree that they are valid examples. Remember. Respond to each of these excerpts individually, or I will take that as you acknowledging them as a valid example: Quote:

Somatic mice cells are all dihaploid indicating that they have two alleles for each characteristic. In the case of mice coats, the black allele is completely dominant to the brown coat. This means a mouse will have a black coat whether it has two alleles for a black coat or one allele for a black coat and one for a brown coat. Two parent hybrids will be black, but if they have four offspring, one should be brown. But there's a twist. There's an additional gene which codes whether or not the mice get any pigment or not. The recessive allele does nothing, while the dominant allele gives them pigment. Again, the dominant allele is completely dominant to the recessive allele. Now what happens? If the parents were dihybrids and had sixteen children, they should have nine black children, three brown children, and four WHITE children, even if they've never had a white mouse anywhere along their ancestral tree, although this would be highly unlikely. Similarly, just because two dogs look like toy poodles does not mean that their children will also be toy poodles, or be smaller than the parents. Size is not only dependent on genes, but on environment as well. Size is a quantitative trait, meaning it lies along a continuum rather than being fixed by genes. Of course, none of this is an example of an increase in information. Mutations, however, do account for increases in information. For instance, searching "gene duplication" at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi gives over 5000 examples of an increase in genetic information. If that doesn't suffice, I'm sure that searching point mutations or recombination would give similar results. Quote:

MJ seems to be taking this debate rather seriously. I must ask you the ultimate quest ...what came first, the chicken or the egg?

Obviously... for the first "chicken" must have come from an egg.

Furthermore, you have it backwards. Proof of biological evolution does not prove that the stars and planets somehow followed a similar process. They did, but proving biological evolution wouldn't prove that. Not to my knowledge, anyway. Quote:

In order for something to stand for something it can not be combined? What the fuck does that mean. You're saying the elementary combinations that compose elements don't stand for anything? You're saying two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to an oxygen atom doesn't stand for water? You're saying that the combination of Carbon:Hydrogen:Oxygen in a 1:2:1 ratio doesn't stand for sugar? You're saying that Nitrogen:Hydrogen in a 3:1 ratio doesn't stand for ammonia? Before you pick apart my semantics, you should at least clearly convey what you're talking about. Quote:

Dear Draco,
Please quit raping me. Love, The English language P.S. Anyways, it looks like I've won since you've acknowledged that the 6 pieces of hard evidence I've presented indeed point to the validity of evolution by not responding to any single one of them, yet continuing with your inane tirade. GG, nub. Until you give me a rebuttle Evolutionists: 1 Creationists: 0 ZING! |
Furthermore, don't edit your posts after I've already replied to the whole thing. Make a new one so I can see the new crap you've posted.
Another thing: Quote:

On average, the Earth gets 84 terrawatts of power from the sun. The average daily consumption worldwide is 12 terrawatts. |
Im guessing the consumption by all living things? Or are you saying by humans?

If it weren't for "outside forces" we would not exist or be able to function in the form we do today. The sun, gravity, the atomosphere. I think you underestimate the importance of "outside forces" on humans (and any other organisational body). If you don't eat, you die. How is your food created? Heat and light are the source of all life on the earth and the chain extends far beyond your immediate experience. To ignore this is pure folly. |
Just after reading the last few posts in this thread, something came to my mind so I'm going to post it here. I don't know if it's relevant or if anyone cares, it's just a thought I was having recently.
It's amazing how complex yet how simple and how perfect systems on earth work. I was watching Planet Earth, and they were talking about how if bees stopped pollenating our plants, we would either have to starve or intervene ourselves and pollenate plants ourselves. The estimated cost of doing this would be hundreds of billions of dollars. It currently costs us nothing because bees do it for us. It's just amazing how simple that is. |
Planet Earth? Is in the one made by the Beeb and narrated by David Attenborough?
Never thought they'd show that in America, to be honest. :p Which episode was it? In fact, which series? I'd guess it's the first one. |
It's a new thing that the Discovery channel is doing. It's like a super documentary of our planet, there's all sorts of rare footage shot with super awesome cameras and shit.
|
This, yeah?
http://dsc.discovery.com/convergence...ide/guide.html If so, then it's the same one I'm on about. :p It's an amazing series. I got the DVDs of both series for Christmas (as well as having watched them on TV) and I have to say, on a HDTV it looks stunning. I don't know how far into the whole thing you are, but have you seen the episode on Caves? That one has to be my favourite. :p EDIT: Looks like they've changed the narrator for you folks. We had David Attenborough. I wonder if the episodes are the same, or different. |
Let's see, I've seen deserts, ice worlds, shallow ocean, future. I think that's it. If there's a "deep ocean" I'm looking forward to it.
By the way, who loves cuttlefish? |
Dolphins do. And sharks, I think.
The episode names are definitely the same. |

Nah nah nah. The theory of common descent proposes that all organisms on Earth are descended from a common ancestor, or ancestral gene pool. Thus common descent is evolution - all organisms on Earth are descended from single celled organisms. Re-rescore: Evolutionists: 2 - 0 :Creationists |

I agree, I haven't replied to EVERY single thing, however what is important is that I replied to the relevant information. You can't seem to do that.

If Draco's next post in this thread isn't a submission that Mjordan is right, or at least some sort of effort to respond to all of those things Mjordan just said he hasn't responded to, this debate will be over with Mjordan being the winner and Draco will go away for a very long time because he's bugging the shit out of me.

Hey you have got to give me some time.... I will try to get back to the post ASAP(which may be a while)...
|
So it's been nearly a month. Can I say I win now?
GG No re? |
Yep, he hasn't even visited back to reply.
For now, unless you mysteriously comes back, you're the winner. |
