Actuall, yes. Duly submitted to FSTDT. Shit like that is far too good not to share.

It's a great example of falsifiability. It's the perfect example to refute the statement that there are no stupid questions.

Ok let me explain it for you dummies.

That statement was obviously sarcasm, since I believe in a creator and not that nature actually figured out the principles of lift. Rolleyes

The point was flight has been around a long time, and neither prayer or science had anything to do with it.

So read the quote I was responding to...

Why you commenting on something you don't know the proper context of?

How did nature manage to work out the principles of lift without science?


It was by way of survival of the liftest, a topic science addresses in evolution.

How about some ASTDT

Using that model I can prove that Jack and the Beanstalk was real.
(September 4, 2014 at 1:11 pm)Huggy74 Wrote: Correct.
If we were discussing Jack and the Beanstalk, and you claimed that Jack climbed a rope instead of the beanstalk, then it would make sense to look and see what it says on the book...no?

Try dealing in facts instead of fairy tales.

And btw, a flying carpet would impact the story of Jack and the beanstalk considerably.

Nothing you f-ing moron. Small changes on an inner species level can be witnessed with in just a few generations of cross breeding and environmental change. No one has EVER questioned that. But that (and thisis the f-ing moron part you don't seem to get) Inner species evolution is NOT DARWINISM!!! Darwinism speak to extra species evolution. like from a 14 foot reptile to a bird of prey! Not from a hound dog to another type or measure of a hound dog. or a donkey and horse to a mule. a 500ft whale to 300ft land animal to100ft blue whale.. that is darwinism get it? from one species over time to another.

So the usual strawman argument from a theist who does not understand what the theory of evolution actually is but dismisses it anyway.

I am glad that you agreed that there is no mechanism is in place to stop small changes from accumulating over many generations because that means that what you creationists call micro-evolution accumulate given enough time to become major changes. That is what the theory of evolution is, small changes accumulating over time. Genetic algorithms for example won't work if it requires large steps to be made.
And what I said in a nut shell is there is not one example of a major change. The 'algorithm' simply has not yielded one example of a major change. the 24 hour fruit fly is proof of that. 50,000 Generations of 24 hour fruit flies since they were first studied, and what did evolution do? it made one group blind and another tranlucent. that said they were all still 24 hour fruit flies after 50K generations. nothing morphed into anything else!

THE EVIDENCE IS THE SAME "the dude" just a different explanation as to how it all comes together. matter of fact it comes together far more cleanly.
