can micro evolution on a dog turn it into something that is not a dog... no it can you just cant make something like a dog change like that. That's the conceptual misunderstanding that creationists have -as a rule. That evolution means a dog turning into "not a dog". It doesn't.

Hey, guys. I actually looked up that kind shit and it seems, they all take it from there. They can't give a clear definition, because there isn't one.

And that's some seriously messed up creationist bullshit about it

Right, genus, except when it's inconvenient (and it's become incredibly inconvenient since the 70's and 80's..since we've definitively and demonstrably seen the generation of a new genus from an existing one since that bastion was picked as a potential safespot by creatards decades ago in ignorance).

Pfff... scientists - what do they know...
If it disagrees with the magic book, it's obviously wrong. Ken Ham says so.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Fish are an interesting choice.
Cod are more closely related to giraffes than they are hagfish.
Quote:It's strange but true that there's really no such thing as fish! Unlike with mammals and birds, not all the animals we call fish - aquatic, vertebrate animals covered with scales - descend from the same common ancestor. Put another way, if we go back to the most recent common ancestor of everything we now call fish, we find that it was also the ancestor of all four-legged, land vertebrates (tetrapods), which obviously aren't fish at all.

Used to keep African cichlids - they were another casualty of my breakup with the ex. Found them to be about as challenging as saltwater fish.

Yeah, if they don't just die they'll kill each other (and to an extent I keep them precisely because they do). I refer to them as my freshwater wolves. I used to have a 150 gal salt tank but when I moved up here to kentucky just keeping it warm was too much of an investment for me. I left it in St. Pete. My little sister says all that's left are the shrimp...lol.
(I have a "Malawi tank" and a "Tanganyika tank" now...maybe I should take pictures..any other enthusiasts besides myself and Cthulu?)
