Request to intelligent freepers that beleive in evolution - post the name of the species

It has vestigal legs bones that have no function. The legs bones are an artifact of the predecessor species.

Like the human appendix.

As I already mentioned in this thread, that point is not what I mean with my request

"probably not worth the trouble" ping.

Agreed.

Are you claiming that snakes do not have vestigial leg bones?

[Modernman]

You obviously know much more about Charlie Darwin than his wife ever could, so we'll just believe you instead of her.

Where did you get the quote from? I'd like to see a link to the source before I actually believe that this was the actual opinion of Darwin's wife.

All kidding aside, your casual disregard for the dangers of being led astray by any form of deceit, including Darwinian deceit, is given lie by Jesus' own words

Since the evidence supports evolution, how can evolution be deceitful?

One either believes, or one is led astray. Jesus also said, "You are either for me, or against me."

If the evidence goes against the Bible, then the Bible is either (a) wrong or (b) our understanding of what the Bible means in that regard is wrong. Take your pick.

I assume that this "predecessor species" you mention is extinct - there are no photos or films available.

Why are you so stuck on photo or film evidence? Why do you place such a high value on such evidence?

[Triple]

Do I need to post a picture of a snake's vestigial leg bones and a picture of a legged reptile?

You do not doubt that legged reptiles exist, do you?

[Truth666]

I don't get what you mean with your suggestion for varieties of Solidago. You say they have teh ability to hybridize. So we are back in the case of DOGS. So do you mean that for you the case of the plant Solidago is more impressive than the case of dogs ?

Sweet fancy Moses.

LOL! That’s a new one that I have to steal.

"Boat People got taller in average."

There was no mention of changes in height.

The changes were in body structure...the size of the pelvic girdle for a larger baby to pass through during birth.

Q: How many species?

A: As many (or few) as we want. Having invented taxonomy we can and should use it in whatever way is most advantageous. But it's a mistake to forget that it is essentially arbitrary.

[Just mythoughts]

Have the "E's" told us where this evolution is going?

Has a pattern been discovered or are we in the DARK about what lies ahead?

What does fauna and flora have to say?

[Truth666]

"There was no mention of changes in height."
Studies often forget "small" details.

[spunkets]

" No, I believe there's no such thing as "variation within species to adapt to the environment". If there was such a variation, then that would be a proof for evolution. "

The variation within the species is what allows adaption. Consider sickle cell anemia. THe only reason it is prevalent is, because those folks that have it live longer in malarial infested lands.

I have also read that women also have bigger waistlines & smaller butts because death in childbirth is quite rare now.

Are you claiming that snakes do not have vestigial leg bones?
The question is not correctly constructed. I claimed that there are NO vestigial bones. So you can call those bones whateever you want (legs, shoulder, arm), for me none of those designations makes sense.
