No, an allele is not a different gene. It’s the same gene but with different allele. You know that don’t you? The function of the gene doesn’t change because of an allele variant.
Here what you guys fail to understand. The ToE doesn’t postulate a sudden purposeful change emerging out of nowhere...
It’s Irrelevant; the question is “what are the criteria that define the so-called naturalistic entities?”
You didn’t get it. I don’t have a problem with the process of observations/experimentation, the problem is the prior adherence to a false assumption of what is possible or not.
If you see...
The EES which was proposed to address the failure of the MS is not agreed upon. That is why the MS may appear to be in good standing but it’s not.
Even so the overall concept is false but it’s important to understand that many details are true especially with respect to the so-called...
This is what you fail to understand, it’s not about “how much change”, it’s about “what kind of change”, how the process unfolds and what would the specific steps entail.
Again, a gene is not just any random DNA sequence; a gene is a specific code for a function. And remember we are not talking...
No, it’s the same genes with different alleles. Any given gene may have multiple different alleles.
Same genes with different alleles pass from each parent to offspring, different alleles are only variants of the same genes not new genes. Such as the example of the alleles for brown, green or...
Yes, the extrapolation back to a single entity is logical and scientific.
Monism is about the ultimate unification of the constituents of reality. Priority monism postulates that all existing things go back to a source that is distinct from them. That specific view of reality imposes a duality...
If both natural and supernatural are acceptable possibilities to you then, you merely have an inclination towards the natural, but the fact of the matter is that you don’t know.
Your position is about your personal inability of direct verification. The logical position is that it can be...
Monism is about the ultimate unification of the constituents of reality. Priority monism postulates that all existing things go back to a source that is distinct from them.
The Big Bang as a change that came into being at a specific point in time must be caused (contingent being). Beyond the...
Allele frequency changes continuously. Alleles are variants of the same genes that already exist. There is no mechanism that creates new genes. I’ll clarify further below.
A gene is analogous to a statement that conveys a meaning, even if you randomly substitute all letters of the statement, it...
It’s good that you made some effort to understand the “context” but why do you call it “agenda”? I thought we agreed to have an argument based on reason not nonsense. I don’t make argument about the ToE based on religious ground; the Islamic view is a reference for me not for you, the argument...
Please identify the terminology that you don’t agree with and demonstrate your reasons. If you mean that I used "duplication" vs. “replication", then I definitely agree, otherwise please clarify.
Agreed, Mutation creates slightly different versions of the same genes, called alleles. Not new...
True and it was never the focus of the discussion but it’s beneficial to understand how the roots of the theory were influenced by false understanding of what life is.
Again, empty subjective assertions are meaningless.
What is called Modern Synthesis (Neo-Darwinism) is the mainstream theory...
Lack of interest to understand why your view is false is nothing but illogical denial. I get you’re not interested about reading sources or long posts; let me try to strip the argument to the bones.
All changes are nothing but alleles of same genes that already exist. Natural selection may only...
All changes are nothing but gene variants/alleles (NEVER NEW GENES). Natural selection is not a creative force; it picks from options that already exist. If all options are strictly limited to alleles, then there is no way for selection to create new genes, it only picks from what is already...
No, that is oversimplification. Change in DNA sequence is not equal to new genes. Mutation creates slightly different versions of the same genes, called alleles. Not new genes. New information (that is required for the evolution of new families, phyla or genera, i.e. macroevolution) is...
Who said anything about goals? It’s about an opportunity, give modern-day microbes some time, random mutations, natural selection, and they would have a chance to be elephants or possibly humans with the ability to think and have goals (not all humans can). Wish them luck.
As usual, you don't know what the context was and based on your understanding or rather misunderstanding of the context, you start making some irrelevant comments or accusations that are actually nonsensical regardless of what the context was. Please make some effort to understand the context...
