Missing Link Found

[WRB852]

I have already explained this in another thread, so I'll just quote myself.

Don't worry buddy, I got'cha covered already in this topic.

There's this thing that happens called mutation. The process of mutation is when DNA gets forgeted up while it's copied. This can happen while cells are multiplied, or when offspring is produced. This is what causes cancer as well, but that's a whole different story. It happens all the time. Make sense so far?

Okay so, let's say a rabbit is born. When it's conceived let's say the DNA gets forgeted up during the process. Is this possible? Of course, it happens all the time. Now let's say during this loving up, the trait for rabbits feet gets altered, and it's born with larger feet. Now let's say these larger feet help the rabbit to run faster. Wouldn't the rabbit have a better chance for survival than other rabbits if it can escape things like wolves easier? Of course it would. Now since this is true, then the rabbit would have a better chance of reproducing, and therefore all of its offspring would have larger feet as well. This is the process of Natural Selection.

Now, if this happens countless times over history, doesn't it make sense that different species could be made?

That's Evolution.

i like you inv3rted

you are a cool dude

QFT

I believe in god because he does exist. In the trees, in rocks, even in the smallest
stone. God is here, you just have to see him not as this giant man who can do everything, but simply look at everything that is alive and here, and you will see him. He's may not be a physical person who walks around like we do, but he is in everything, because he created everything, he is here. I always know he is here. I have had many experiences with god too. So, that's my view on things.

There you go spewing your stuff again, will you shoo already?!

I am a Diest. I don't believe in the bible.

Wow, then you're even dumber than I thought. And a hypocrite!

[Frogg]

That doesn't excuse you from arguing with everything supported by large amounts of evidence. Also you believe in God, so you believe in at least a part of the bible.

Well, I don't believe in God himself, but an ultamite being. I just refer to him as God, because it is the simplest phrase to use for him in this country.

[Frogg]

There you go spewing your stuff again, will you shoo already?!

You just wont take the time to read it. And even if you did, you wouldn't have the mental capacity to understand it. Since you think everything is in plain black and white.

I don't believe in god because of the bible. Sure, I can be scared at times and do rely on him for comfort, but that's not why I believe in him. I believe in god because he does exist. In the trees, in rocks, even in the smallest
stone. God is here, you just have to see him not as this giant man who can do everything, but simply look at everything that is alive and here, and you will see him. He's may not be a physical person who walks around like we do, but he is in everything, because he created everything, he is here. I always know he is here. I have had many experiences with god too. So, that's my view on things.

Well see then there's that mushy stuff. And there you go again saying you know what's going to happen to you. "I know God is there. I have had experiences with him", well that doesn't sit well with me. If you know were you're going after you die, why bother living any more? I mean, I'm not saying kill yourself, I just mean, why obsess with things like school, or this computer. You should go out to the wilderness and just love God. If he exists, he'll keep you alive even without food, and if it's your turn to die, you already know where you're going, no worries.

It just never made sense to me why the hell God would put us on this Earth when we're just going to die. Why do we bother ourselves with anything? Why study science at all? I mean, it was God's work.

What's happened is we've had a radical new way of thinking thrust upon and some people are too conservative to change the way they think. They've been "brainwashed" so to speak by this God person to be closed minded.

That stuff right there will get our species killed.

Oh, ha, wow that was ironic. You say he thinks in black in white, yet you you insist there is only God.

I think it's you who doesn't have the mental capacity to understand what we are saying. You keep on arguing the same things over and over, ignoring evidence, and insulting people who try to explain. I apologize about my previous insult, it was uncalled for. I was just irritated because I have been having this debate with people for years.

I did read it. And also, everything is plain black and white. We have to believe that, or otherwise how can we even believe what our eyes are telling us that we're seeing?

[Osak]

And koolkody, evolution is completely supported by modern and legitimate science. I say legitimate because someone saying that evolution is scientifically impossible is obviously disregarding the facts and is biased, due to religion.

Oh please, I said UNLIKELY not impossible. Define a fact to me, is it a theory? If so, then I can use a "theory" called the bible.

Face it, we never knew where we came from because we never had seen it or experienced it.

You said that it was, not only likely, but most likely for a mutation to occur. How about try loving a human and create a dog, besides autistic kids.

[Swholli]

Okay, so you say if we die, we are unconciouss. So why be alive in your point of view as well?

Well, quite possibly we're the output of some great equation. Perhaps we're the only planet with life on it, and the universe produced us to try to figure itself. We're maybe the only creatures with enough brains to figure it all out. Maybe Douglas Adams wasn't so far off in his fiction.

Let's just end this here. I don't like getting into politics or religeous wars with anyone for this reason. We both go until we get into complete starfish mode. Then the rockets flare from there. People have their dis agreements, that's part of life. So ya, let's just be cool.

Sorry kid, no you can't. Theories are based on evidence, and take much support to be called that.

You said that it was, not only likely, but most likely for a mutation to occur. How about try loving a human and create a dog, besides autistic kids.

That didn't make sense. Did you read my explanation on the theory of evolution?

Yay, he gave up.

[Frogg]

Yay, he gave up.

Yes, I did, my friend. Yes I did.

[Osak]

You said that mutations were most likely to occur. Yet you don't see humans creating new species.
