When they prove that a loaf of bread is related to the airplane...let me know.

Until then...I'm taking a shower.

Well of course! A certain cyber-genius who often favors us with his insights has proven beyond all doubt -- merely by posting his opinions here -- that all research ever done conclusively proves the falsity of evolution.

I back up my statements with facts. All you do is slime - even on threads I am not on. And of course you and your gang of thugs got another thread pulled yesterday because the losers of evolution kept getting caught in their lies and being shown that their theory is totally false. This whole thread is an insult and an ad-hominem attack. Shows exactly the kind of low-lifes evolutionists are. You cannot discuss anything honestly because you know that evolution is total garbage.

The problem with that approach, according to the new Wisconsin study, is that trees constructed on single genes often seem to lack reliability. Different genes give different answers so that one gene from a group of organisms depicts one tree, while a different gene from the same organisms will paint an entirely different phylogenetic picture.

Which shows quite well that the assumptions of this tree of life are totally false. If evolution were true each and every gene in each every species would provide the same tree. It does not because these species did not evolve, they were created and evolution is total nonsense. This is just another attempt after many failed ones to make some new criteria which can be manipulated to prove evolution to be true. Since even simple creatures have some 1,000 genes, there is plenty of room in this approach to get whatever results one wishes. It therefore is in no way objective and it is not science.

Please check "horizontal transfer" of genes on the Internet and you will have an answer on your question. Take almost any link frome this search http://www.google.com/search?q=horizontal+transfer+genes

In case anyone is wondering ... all true --- why hide it !

[gore3000]

Please check "horizontal transfer" of genes

Did you bother to read it? Sounds like you did not. Such transfers only occur in bacteria. What that means is that it does not explain that the genes of much later arising species do not provide the same evolutionary tree. So my statement remains - if evolution were true all genes would provide the same tree of life. They do not.

[general_re]

Such transfers only occur in bacteria.

Yes. Horizontal transfers never occur in fruit flies, or rats and mice, or flowering plants, or reptiles. As anyone who reads the literature can clearly see, horizontal gene transfers occur only in bacteria.

Sheesh.

[gore3000]

Nope. What all those articles say is that because different species have a similar gene then it must be due to evolution. Such has never been observed. It is circular reasoning/ The only observed transfer of genes is in bacteria. Period. Those article are just more evolutionist fact-free science.

[AdmSmith]

Gore, welcome.

I take it that you nowadays accept evolution as you write "Such transfers only occur in bacteria." If you have time read the links provided by general-re or this article
http://genomebiology.com/2002/3/5/research/0024

and you can see that gene transfer occur across species "barriers".
