I am familiar with the material. It has been debunked multiple times on these threads. Why do you guys do that? You get an argument and/or source crushed, so you don't respond and instead post it on the next thread, like the result will be any difference.

It doesn't take into consideration subtleties such as the difference between desirable traits and survival traits.

It was someone with an agenda and a dabble-level understanding of biology who started at the end point and then drew his lines in reverse, then plotted the points.

DNA is currently telling the whole story of Evolution, but it takes experts in that fields to understand and interpret the results.


Willful ignorance of the worst kind.

I'm well aware of the fact that neither I nor anybody else is going to convince hardened evolutionists of anything, that's not the point here. The point is that C.S. Lewis was right in saying that, above all else, the devil cannot tolerate being mocked, and the world needs to learn to laugh at the theory of evolution, and comprehending that it requires trillions of years and only has a few thousand or tens of thousands at most, as as good a place to start as any.

It's rather like repeatedly posting ASCII bats and an rant titled, "God Hates Idiots, Too."

Quite a claim. Mind if I quote you? "who started at the end point and then drew his lines in reverse, then plotted the points. Yes, I realize I'm being over simplistic by quoting you.

Can't wait to see the migration maps for some plants & critters. Continental drift models against frog emergence dating leaves me wondering about the migratory habits of frogs. Thus far, looks like the rock people have veto power over the critter people. Birds crapping out eggs only take me so far.

When I asked myself the migration question about fresh water fish, I happened upon a page at a site that's been commonly used by people on the ToE side in the debates here. The piece I found was written by a Wisconsin biologist & she was talking about the populations of blue gills in a lot of local lakes. We're talking an area that was under a glacier during the last ice age... Tribes in the area operate huge game fish hatcheries. Think I should tell her or should I assume she would already know, being an expert in the field 'n all?
