Actually, evolution is not real. Mutation is not the same as “Evolution,” this respect to your haughty sarcasm. There has never been any evidence, ever of one species transforming into another. Oh, we have mutation, it occurs among offspring of many, but a species is a set of organisms one that is genetically able to reproduce viable and fertile offspring, and will do so in a given population grouping.
and that is the evolutionists silly little misconception. Mutation never has proven “Evolution.” God created all things after their kind, and they never have leaped from one species to another, although characteristics vary from one individual to its offspring. Grow up and don’t please don’t taunt believers just for a gratification for your own pride. Evolution doesn’t apply to this virus, because viruses are not living anyway, they can be identified as neither living nor non-living, they are not in any of the kingdom’s of life, they are encapsulated genetic material incapable of reproduction.
Bark up another tree please.
2) Implications for punctuated equilbrium happening by multiple methods -- e.g. environmentally-driven vs. genetic drift (skunks haven't changed, this one must be random)
3) Corollary implications for "genetic clocks" -- what determines how often an punctuated event happens, how regularly/irregularly, and implications for cladistics and dating of species by genetic similarities.
Haven't seen them discussed in these threads: only a couple of FReepers would be competent to discuss them, and they're not on speaking terms with me :-(
Have an all-day training seminar at work, have to run.
g_w Cheers!

Very few Creationists deny that God’s creation changes through genetic mutation and hybrids.
That is a far cry from the absurd beliefs that:
1) Either the Universe always existed and has no origin, or at some point it spontaneously created itself out of nothing.
2) Highly complex and ordered organisms created themselves out of some ancient, lifeless, mud puddle.
3) Relatively simple (though still amazingly complex) single cell organisms made themselves into fish, reptiles, birds, lower mammals, apes and finally hummans.
Come back and gloat when these rabies viruses evolve to the point where they can build skyscrapers, airplanes, space shuttles, or even make inane posts on the internet.
