It is you who fail to comprehend my point from two posts back. The thread is about a repetition of an event in different lines of mammals that would appear unlikey to evolve independently. They countered that 4.5 billion years a lot of unlikely things can happen. My reply in part was that the things we are talking about- independent origin of ear bones in mammals and flight in stick insects- are in the higher animals.

Higher animals emerged- with a few possible exceptions, not 4.5 billion years ago but a mere 543 million years ago. All of the independent re-evolution that seems so unlikely happeded since the explosion. That means seven eights of Earth's history is not available to give time for these "unlikely chance events" to occur.

You are just wrong. We have tried to explain the mechanisms involved that make you wrong. You have not conceded an inch from your original stance.

I suggest you read up on biology to a greater extent and try to separate your religious opinions from objective fact.
