Thanks for the welcome. :)
My last college textbook told me Neanderthal was a missing link, humanoid from 10+ million years ago. Now, after mapping the genome of a Neanderthal fossil, we find out he was contemporaneous to modern and even interbred with us? What do you suggest I do with *that*...
Well, I can tell you that it has never occurred in the history of naturalism nor is it likely based on genetic science. Can you show me where it has (or is currently) happening and how it *is* likely in light of genetic science?

These papers dashed the notion that butterfly-spot size represents an example of a trait that's evolved under such a strong constraint that some forms, such as one big spot and one little spot, never...
I believe we call the butterfly's transformation its "life-cycle." The genetic code that produces the wings is already present in the pre-cocooned, non-winged form. A mutation is when a healthy/normal genetic code is missing information or is mixed abnormally. This usually results in a...
Hello and new here.
Evolution proper is biological evolution. Under biological is micro-evolution and macro-evolution. Darwin witnessed micro-evolution (genetic adaptation or generational predisposition) and theorized that species may have crossed the traditional speciation boundaries...
