They must dis-prove Adam in order to dis-prove the creator. That is the ultimate goal.

is it ‘evolution’ when you breed a dog for centuries until it is a good hunter or tall or short or... something? what makes a new ‘breed’

It’s still a DOG- that is what made me think about the evolution argument.

I think Darwin’s claim that a giraffe’s neck grew so he could reach the trees to eat leaves ignores a whole slew of generations unable to reach the leaves (where are those bodies?)

Well, since this is a conservative website, perhaps we should give the obvious-as-the-nose-on-your-face American answer:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created..."

I get it. The multi-cellular yeast was created by researchers selecting for that trait just like farmers select for leaner hogs or cows with higher milk production.

yeast with multicell differentiation?

I’m not of a scientific bent. Does this mean you could have sour dough biscuits with chlamydia?

I can’t wait for the day the multicellular yeast evolves into a new species of elk or lizard.

By hogging resources and hindering neighbors, a cell can increase the odds that more of its own genes get passed into the next generation.

As though at one time in the distant past a single cell made a decision about what it wanted for the future after it was gone, offspring. This is really absurd. They put complex thinking and planning into a single cell as though it had a big brain to figure out it's goals and then to design itself to carry them out. I am fed up with the ridiculousness of putting personality and complex thoughts and abilities to carry them out into one cell creatures. The only way a single cell would compete to live and propagate would be if someone who designed it, who did think, put those properties into it.

The evolutionists make it sound so simple. Matter + Water + Energy + Time = The universe and all living things.

If it were so simple to evolve life why isn’t it just as easy for non-living practical objects to likewise evolve? Why haven’t computers washed ashore that were never manufactured?

Read Darwin’s Black Box by Michael Behe to realize that the “irreducible complexity” of things don’t just happen out of thin air.

Lab techs have known for decades that some yeast {Candida albicans, the cause of thrush, for one} can be grown as fungi by altering the environmental conditions under which they are grown.

One simple cell communicates to the other, “Why don’t we get together so that we can both function better and our offspring will have a better chance of living. The other says “Good idea, come on over”. The first little cells says “Great” and over he comes, but what happens, chomp, chomp, chomp.
