Heated debate on evolution with brother

[DarkerEnergy]

Of course, you could just admit you have no idea what you're talking about, and that you're just repeating shit you read on creationist websites -- that would suffice too.

I have a feeling that most people that accept the neo-Darwin synthesis are also just repeating what they read in high-school textbooks from the internet. I have since learned that many of the pictures and diagrams in my textbooks were either staged or already outdated. Examples include:

Pepper Moth affixed to bark:



Embryo Development that glosses over major differences by species:

What did you do, read 'Icons Of Evolution' and think you've figured out some great conspiracy among biologists? The pepper moth is a weak example of evolution to begin with. Mimicry is a good example of natural selection in the animal kingdom. Mimicry has been well documented. Two good examples of it are the mimicry of Coral snakes (that are extremely venomous) and of the Monarch butterfly that is poisonous to birds.






But don't forget the art of camouflage. The Buckeye butterfly has also been known to have been the result of natural selection, due to the wings resembling the eyes of an that of an owl.



Don't forget Heikegani crab covered by Carl Sagan in his famous series 'Cosmos' where he documented the artificial selection of crabs by humans in releasing those crabs that resembled a samurai warrior to live - resulting in the striking results today.



There you go, there's a few 'icons' of natural selection that are very recent in history, and very much examples of significant evolution. We can go further but my hunch is, you really don't know what you're talking about at all, and it's waste of time to proceed.
