Do you have a question about something related to evolution?

You asked about redoods. I am unaware of any problem related to redwoods and evolution. I said s and you did not follow up.

You asked about extinction and I asked why this is a problem. I simply don't understand why extinction is a problem. The concept of evolution was formed in an era of science that was, for the first time, documenting extinction as a fact. It is built into all the assumptions about evolution. What exactly is the problem.

Species do not change for any particular purpose, nor do they change in anticipation of need. These concepts have never had anything to do with evolution.

Well, I just simply don't understand why it isn't a problem. If evolution is true, nothing should go extinct, it should adapt and change, especially the fittest, which you would think sabertooth tigers, for one, would be

Creationism is bludgeoning with ignorance--the ignorance of the creationist. That's the point of this thread, when you come right down to it.

You can't make a creationist understand. Thus, my tagline.
