What, Agnostic? Wait, no... yes? No... I'm confusing myself...

how is that supposed to make sense
how can you not believe in gods and and not be an atheist
i think being an agnostic is to not be sure whether or not there is a god due to lack of evidence
feel free to correct this

anyway
Code: [Select]
Procedure
I'd have six groups of drosophila specimens. These will be divided into three different sets
that are differentiated based on temperature. Set 1 is to be regulated at 10 degrees celsius.
Set 2, the control, is to be regulated at 20 degrees celsius. Set 3 is to be regulated at 30 degrees
celsius. Every group is to be isolated in a controlled glass environment where areas fit for
breeding and egg laying lie in two rooms where the eggs are originally placed; these
areas are not modulated by temperature. The glass room that intersects between the two
spawning areas has a modulated temperature and provides all the food and other necessities
for survival, the food being the incentive to survive in the hostile condition of odd temperatures.
After two weeks the temperatures of each set are reversed; set 1's temperature will be
set to 30 degrees celsius, set 2's temperature will stay at 20 degrees celsius, and set 3's
temperature will be set to 10 degrees celsius. If the drosophila specimens have
adapted to their temperature moderated environments, they should probably be more suseptible
to change of temperature to the opposite end of the spectrum. This would indicate evolutionary
adaptation.
Over the course of the two weeks, qualitative observations are to be taken to observe whether
or not notable mutations occur within the groups.
Is this stupid?

I am an Atheist.

temperature =/= mutation


tempature = adaptation

Dump radioactive waste on them.

that might kill them all instantly

I can't wait to see all the dead flies Titanium makes. :D
Unless they do microevolution and adapt.
