    the FoE - Fact of Evolution

    Nothing. Because theories are higher in the scale than laws, Scientific theories explain why Scientific Laws work. Additionally Laws tend to be limited in scope, they describe (almost always in mathmeatical terms) what will happen for certain given conditions.

    the FoE - Fact of Evolution

    See, people do get it very, very wrong. Thanks for proving the OP right. Evolution in terms of biology is the change in allele frequencies in a population over time. That is an observed fact. The matching nested heirarchies from genetics and morphology are an observed fact. The fossil record...

    The brain and the eye

    Thats what I said. But only 10% of the mass of your brain is directly involved in those actions the other 90% is allowing that 10% to function properly, which seems to be where the myth came from. The retina of a squid perhaps, as it lacks the flaw in our eyes of having the blood vessels in...

    What does the fossil record say?

    Whats really funny here is that this sentence is addressed to people who don't know anything about evolution (especially creationists).

    UK cleric leaves mosque over evolution.

    CNN needs to do some fact checking. He did not leave the mosque, in fact he is still on the board of trustees. What happened is he stopped leading prayers because he did not want other members prayers being disrupted.

    Texas Bill Would Protect College Professors Who Question Evolution

    Complete rubbish, the lifeforms in the cambrian do have ancestors in the pre-cambrian and none of the lifeforms in the cambrian are alive today.

    Texas Bill Would Protect College Professors Who Question Evolution

    Oh look, falsified data from the creationists. School books use micrographs (photos) of embryos as the basis of their illustrations these days. And they did so when I was at school decades ago.

    The brain and the eye

    I have read that the source of this myth is that only 10% of the brain is taken up by the neurons themselves, the rest is the glial cells, connective tissues, blood vessels etc. So while it may be technically true that we only use 10% of our brain we can't use any more than 10% of your brain as...

    ...about killing babies.

    God does. Numbers 5:16-22 In cases of adultery God causes abortions.

    What does the fossil record say?

    post after post all you do is evade the question. This is what you said back on page 200. So where is the one place? Where is this glacier? And no an area of permafrost bigger than most large countries is not "one place". To paraphrase the great Douglas Adams "Siberia is big. You just won't...

    What does the fossil record say?

    Evasion duly noted. What is wrong with using an estimate when talking about an area some of some 3 million square kilometres? Thats a huge area, larger than all but the biggest countries in the world. No, I didn't need to google anything to know you were talking rubbish. I had to use google...

    What does the fossil record say?

    I have done my research, your claim that there are 500 million mammoths on one place and "Because the reality (IE FACT) is they are where discovered to be entombed in a glacier" is not true. Stop evading the question and provide these so called facts that there are 500 million mammoths in one...

    What does the fossil record say?

    Any news on where these 500 million mammoths were found? Unless you can provide this info that face palm is entirely warranted as that is a ridiculous claim. Christian - Professing belief in Jesus as Christ or following the religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus.

    What does the fossil record say?

    I apologise for accusing you of deleting the post, you did not. Do you accept that it was a reasonable assumption rather than a malicious accusation as there was no indication that it had been deleted by a mod? As it was deleted by the moderators for a Rule 7 violation do you accept that it...

    What does the fossil record say?

    The fossil record does support the idea that one species evolves into another, but then observed reality shows that one species evolves into another as does genetics. :facepalm: And where would these 500 million mammoths be found? Because reality says you are talking complete rubbish...

    What does the fossil record say?

    Note that I did not state that Loennig was lying, I said that a statement was a lie. I was aware that Loennig was quoting Coyne. Because Loennig was using Coyne as an illustration of his claim and was taking those statements to be correct if Coyne was wrong then Loennig was also wrong. The...

    What does the fossil record say?

    So I post facts which can be verified from this thread and google cache and these a dirty tactics? All the posts here are tinestamped and so is google cache. If you don't want to respond to the facts of the matter then run away Wilson, I will continue to point out when you are factually incorrect.

    What does the fossil record say?

    The plagiarism is that you did not properly attribute the text in your post. As I am feeling generous I will not wait for you to admit to even incompetent attribution and will procede to expose Loennig as the deceptive liar that he is. Lie. The natural distribution of moth resting places is...

    Creationist - What about Evolution you disagree with?

    The important point is the phrase "at a given locus" The chance you are quoting there is of 2 gametes having a mutation in identical places. If you use a mutation rate of 1x10-8 per base pair then with the human genome of 3 billion base pairs that would predict 30 mutations per offspring, the...

    What does the fossil record say?

    No. I did quote from your post. My post #1954 quoted your post and was made nearly 12 hours after your post was made. By my clock (GMT) your post was made at 7:55am on the 12th and my response came at 7:14pm on the 12th. The google cache shows your post was there at 14:28 GMT on the 12th...
