Darwin’s Mockingbirds Show Neither ‘Rigid Creation’ Nor Evolution

Oh yeah, he's abandoning ship all right.

GGG specializes in thinking that disagreements at the cutting edge of science will somehow support a flat earth.

I'm continually astonished at his capacity for self immolation.

It is impolite to leave a discussion when several pointed questions have been asked of you.

Would you please be so kind as to answer the questions posed to you on this thread?

[Fichori]

They are still mocking birds!

Not elephants or armadillos!

It seems that “rigid creation” is a strawman.

Just look at a wholphin.

Half whale half dolphin.

I’m not being impolite. Unlike some people on this thread, I am very busy. I write what I can when spare moments present themselves.

[GodGunsGuts]

Quite true. And even if it wasn’t a strawman amongst certain circles way back when, it is most certainly a strawman now!

[MrB]

Where did the term “rigid creation” come from?

It’s obviously a canard - no one claims that you can’t have change within a “kind” of animal - like equine, bovine, feline, porcine, bird, etc.

Far be it from me to point out you had time to start and respond to another thread before completing this one.

And I have time on my hands because they gave us 1/2 day off today.

Now, feel free to go back and answer the questions at your earliest leisure.

Or just admit you abandoning the thread in the face of those questions.

==So now you are saying you don’t accept the Altenberg 16 upon whom you rely for your attack on TToE?

I’m saying if even if the Evos are forced to abandon neo-Darwinism, they still have a prior committment to materialist religion, which will force them to come up with a new unintelligent theory of evolution, as evidenced by the Altenberg 16.

So. now you are saying you don't support the A-16? Then why use them as a reference and proof of your argument?

[GodGunsGuts]

Go back and reread my reply carefully. I never said I support the Altenberg 16, I merely used them as an example of Evos who are abandoning the HMS Beagle in search of another evolutionary ship. Their commitment to materialist religion has not changed in the slightest.
