No Evolution Found in Human Facial Differences (Evos unwittingly wind up supporting creation AGAIN)

No Evolution Found in Human Facial Differences

by Brian Thomas, M.S.*

One common question asked of creation scientists is “If all mankind descended from two humans, then where did all the ‘races’ come from?” New research, published in the journal Evolution no less, supports the creation-based answer to this question...

Brian Thomas outdoes himself in his half baked review of literature and drawing conclusion from thin air.

Look dude, get with the program. Science is only science if it supports evolution. Anything else needs to disappear into the memory hole.

Good article. This looks like a good website.

This research adds to a growing list of biological examples of recent, rapid variation within kinds,3 which would be expected within a living world made only thousands of years ago.

"Recent", but somehow never contemporary.

Genesis 1:26
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

Are you serious?

Are there actually intelligent people out there that “don’t believe in evolution”?

While the *details* of how evolution works are constantly undergoing both small refinements and some significant scale change from time to time (that’s what science is about after all) there is NO doubt that the finely graded diversity of life (see Darwin’s Finches as the classic example) at the species level, with lots of easy to measure gradients in gene variety frequencies within species, is a result of “evolution”.

Now it is true that as we learn more, especially about the bio-chemistry of the cell, the mechanisms of evolution are turning out to be way more complex than we learned (way back in the 60s in my case!)in High School, but in it’s broad strokes the “truth” of evolution is as well supported, actually probably better supported, than the theory that the Earth rotates around the Sun!!!

I suppose I’ve pissed off the Ptolemaics now, too!

Lol are *you* serious?

Some intelligent people actually still believe in evolution? When are you lot going to be intellectually honest enough to admit that belief in evolution requires at least as much faith as belief in God?

Yes. Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of creation and the fall.

“a British couple with medium skin tone recently had twins, one with dark skin and the other with light.4 If human skin coloration follows the polygenic inheritance pattern, then it is quite possible that Adam and Eve had dark and light-skinned grandchildren. “

One statement I constantly hear from the evo side of the fight is, “Given enough time...” they’ll find evidence that doesn’t raise more questions and it answers, or we’ll eventually see, first hand evolution in progress, and not just variations on a theme.

Funny thing about it all is that “Given enough time...” is the same thing that comes out of the mouths of liberals when pointing out the flaws/failures of their theories and policies.

Connection?

ALL- The conversation is going to quickly break into an evolution vs. creation slug fest... read the article please.

Racial variations have rarely been argued to be part of macro evolution. WRONG debate folks.

What this article provides evidence for is a rapid migration of human that caused racial difference in a short period of time relative to human history.

Here you go..

The authors of the study proposed that climate and diet were “capable to generate large craniofacial divergence in a short period of time...

This provides support of the Biblical Story of the Tower of Babel...

The answer to the question is SUBSEQUENT evolutionary changes! Evolution is STILL GOING ON NOW, remember.

Details of how evolution works constantly changing? You mean like Darwin said two plus two equals five but the Bible says no, two plus two equals four.
The Darwinist responds that its been found that two plus three equals five so the ideas of Darwin are correct.

The more you post ignorant crap, the more you turn persuadable people against you.

A) Studying a single focal point in geography will ahrdly net a blanket statement.

2) THIS: Even today there is a great deal of potential for marked variation in a single generation (and there was undoubtedly much more 6,000 years ago). For example, a British couple with medium skin tone recently had twins, one with dark skin and the other with light.

.....is a BOLD FACED DECEPTION. The parents of these twins were bi-racial, they had white mothers and black fathers and they retain the genes from both parents, expressed or not....that means they pass on the genes from their parents to their kids...expressed or not....so, as you can read futher along than the unscientific author of this POS article wants you to: "It's not truly a pure black parent with a pure white parent. You had both parents who are already mixed racially so that when they go back together you can get both extremes," .

The author sure can dupe the willing, but anyone that's EVER taken a simple Genetics class would understand the deception.

Just because there are OTHER things that affect a population.....does not discount the ToE. We, as the People of the United States have changed in appearance too, as we're taller now as a population in large part due to a better diet. That doesn't mean that The ToE is invalid.

Selective quoting rounds out the deception. The author forgot this part: "......the patterns of variation within and between populations are too different to be explained by genetic drift alone."

That means that genetic drift is ALSO part of the reason.....but that other factors can ALSO be a part of the whole story.

....and once again "Evos unwittingly wind up supporting creation AGAIN".....you couldn't be further from the truth.

The sky appears blue...."see Evos are once again proving creation"
