Quote:It seems you do not have proper understanding of Abstract Objects. I think if you give some time to study Abstract Objects then you would better understand what does that mean when I say “… which lie outside space and time”
You are familiar with numbers. Almost in all areas of our lives, we use numbers heavily. In fact, without numbers no scientific activity is possible. Yet numbers are Abstract Objects, as they can be neither seen nor heard, nor can they be tasted, felt or smelled. That does not mean that numbers are not real.
I didn't say numbers aren't real, I said assault courses are physical, they are not a singular object so it would be wrong to call an assault course an object, but they are physical and made from physical objects.
Quote:This whole assumption is wrong. The main idea behind Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection is the evolution of simple structures into complex by the process of elimination.
No I don't think that is the main idea behind evolution. Elimination is a part of natural selection and natural selection is a part of evolution, this doesn't make elimination the main idea behind evolution.
Quote:I have specially highlighted the word CAREFULLY to emphasis conscious nature of selection.
I know, but I already told you that you're looking at the wrong definition of selection, it's actually very simply laid out in the dictionary for you.
Quote:selection
sɪˈlɛkʃ(ə)n/
noun
noun: selection; plural noun: selections
1.
the action or fact of carefully choosing someone or something as being the best or most suitable.
2.
Biology
a process in which environmental or genetic influences determine which types of organism thrive better than others, regarded as a factor in evolution.
"there has been more than enough time for selection to generate specific DNA sequences of the required length"
I highlighted and underlined the word biology so that now you can easily see which one you should be looking at when talking about biology.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
