Animal breeders, livestock breeders at AG labs across the world can do it faster. But they've yet to make the New Chicken, the New Rat, or even the New Ladybug. When does evolution stop being merely selection out for type and variations, and starts leading to that Great Evo Hope--the new species?

When regular folks see the word "evolution" they have some assuptions about it (and your spam lists better be broadcast a little farther than obsessive reposting here on a few poorly-attended FRevo threads)--they expect it to have something to do with new species, or the reasonable expectation of some speciation event.

Evos here on FR play rather fast and loose with the definition of Evolution. On one thread, it is assumed to connote speciation. On the next thread, an evo is in a rage because an opponent assumes that evolution has a connotation of speciation.

No Freeper should be surprised to see an evo "arguing" in bad faith.

Now the Asberger-Syndrom control freaks are trying to ENFORCE a list of definitions. I'd like to point out that no freeper is under obligation to pay the least attention to any lists--it's just a sympton of evo OC behavior and we should not be "enablers" to it.
