Evolution Ping The List-O-Links

A conservative, pro-evolution science list, now with over 380 names. See the list's explanation, then FReepmail to be added or dropped. To assist beginners: But it's "just a theory", Evo-Troll's Toolkit, and How to argue against a scientific theory.

So much for "can't be reproduced in a lab."

Of course, the fall back(s) will be:

(1)"this proves intelligent design, not evolution!"

(2) "yeah, but it's still an XYZ. It didn't change into a ABC." and/or

(3) "These traits already existed; there's nothing new here."

"But it's still an algae!"

"When evolution occurs so quickly..."

Same song, second verse. Just another variation on "Sudden Appearance, fully formed..."Another evidence of special creation that the Evol-Doers seek to avoid.

Thanks for the ping!

Meyer developed a method to track genetic changes, and the researchers found that as the prey population fluctuated, the algae "evolved" from a type that grows quickly to a type that resists being eaten.

They mean "as the PREDATOR population fluctuated." The algae are the prey.

Damn. Natural Selection. Who'da thunk?
