That Allele frequencies are changed isn't the question. It's how the get changed that is the question, and you apparently believe that God was too stupid to use Evolution in order to do His work.

Well another assumer make an ass of himself. Such is life.

Don't look now, but I hope you do realize that one of the most common tools used by biologists to change gene sequences is to Evolve them. The only difference being that it is a "human selection" rather than a Darwinian "natural selection". The same biological operations are otherwise the same

Your statement is false and your dogma is that of the neo Luddite. Evolution is a different mechanism from gene splicing. E=RM/NS, GS=DM/US

Very good selective reading. I said that "one of the most common tools used by biologists to change gene sequences is to Evolve them". I didn't say the "only" tool.

And my understanding of process of actual "gene splicing" is that subsequent to the splitting and inserting of the foreign gene, the sample is grown and selected for the desired trait. I.E. it is "Evolved". This is necessary because the vast majority of splices fail, and the successful ones must be selected using the same process as Gods "Natural selection".

Human selection vs. Natural selection. I'm amazed you think that God cannot do what humans can.

How little you must think God is.
