Ummm, this is a self contradictory sentence, isn't it?

Can you provide a link to a scientific site that defines that part of the hand as 'webbing'? I've certainly never read any scientific writing that defined it as such, but I'm willing to admit you are right IF you can provide such a link.

Definition 1. several things that collectively form a set or series. Example a suite of bedroom furniture ; a suite of lively dances. Example a suite of genes. Such as a set including genes for: blond hair, straight hair, blue eyes, fair skin, prominent nose.
If you had this suite of genes, you would be very poorly adapted for an equitorial environment.
You would suffer more sunburns, heat stroke, skin cancer, cataracts, and vitamin D poisoning than a neighbor who's darker skin filtered out more UV, whose curly hair acted as a better parasol, whose flat nose didn't stick out into the sun as much, whose iris did a better job of shielding his eyes lenses from excess sunlight.
Even if you lived long enough to pass on your genes, you would probably die sooner, before you had a change to pass on all the accumulated wisdom you had gained. Some critical information would have a higher chance of getting lost, such as which spring survives seven years of drought, so your kids die, because their suite of genes was disadvantaged.
Does this make any sense to you, or is thinking it through too much of a stretch for you?...

Silly questions---silly science---evolution!

Still quoting dictionaries, and not answering questions, I see...

I'm tripolar...it fits the reality---science!

Does being a tripod exempt you from answering questions?

I pass on the choice over the lesser of dumb choices...

These are all ruts/hole/caves that you are stuck in!

So you don't vote, do you? (Can you answer that?)

The primary is double...did you know that?
I'm in a different party---election than you!
I don't vote...even associate---think of your dumb party/questions!
To: f.Christian
Wouldn't that all be called creation/science then if God did it? No, because Science is the understanding of how things work when God does not interfere, ie no miracles.
Creationism, even if absolutely true and correct can never be science.

God(Creator/creation) even if absolutely true and correct can never be science...
What do you think science is...nosepicking?
To: f.Christian
Evolution is the perpetual denial of reality/truth...
and the assertion of a crony coolie intellectual science---
on no wheels---
no engine! Yeah, but it sure finds a lot of Oil and Gas.
The evolutionary sciences, Geology, Geophysics, Micropaleontology have a proven track record. That is why they have been adopted by every energy company in the world.
Creationism is a useless joke in the real world.

Because behavior is rooted in biology, selecting for tameness and against aggression means selecting for physiological changes in the systems that govem the body's hormones and neurochemicals. Behavior is rooted in biology? Don't tell psychologists this.

"Petroleum - the archetypal fossil fuel - couldn't have formed from the remains of dead animals and plants, claim US and Russian researchers1. They argue that...

The primary is double...did you know that? Double? we have eight primary elections here. One for each party. The world is a little bigger than you see.
By not voting, you give your tacit approval to whatever the government is doing...did you know that?

I not sure of the exact numbers but even if goldfish are 99.999% genetically similar to their original carp ancestor that would show it is possible to genetically change an animal 0.001% over 1000 years. So in 5 billion years it will be possible to genetically change an animal 5000% and currently I believe there isn't a lifeform that is more than 50% different DNA wise from anyother lifeform. Is that anything like cutting off a frog's legs one at a time to see how long it takes for him to go deaf?
