Except for one having supported evidence and the other....not, they're the same thing.
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.
Ha! Right. By "comes together far more cleanly", you mean it's simplistic, makes you feel warm and fuzzy and you don't have to do any pesky thinking.

"pesky thinking" like the inability of producing 1 transition animal to support inner species evolution? remember those transitional being would have to have lived for 10s if not hundreds of millions of years, and not one is found ever. yet think about that seems to allude you, or do you have a solid answer?

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!

What you are also ignoring and probably don't remember or know because you do not understand the theory of evolution, is that there needs to be evolutionary pressure for a species to adapt. There may have been hundreds of thousands of generations and plenty of mutations, but there has no been evolutionary pressure in your example for the fruit fly to change in any significant way so the mutations do not propagate throughout the population.
Yet the Peppered moth is an example of rapid change taking place because of a strong environmental pressure.
Another example, African elephants are being born without tusks due to poaching, researchers say
You are also deliberately ignoring the point I made before, that the fossil records show evolutionary change happening over a much longer time span. So of course persistent large scale changes have not been made in the short time span that you are referring to. The evidence in the fossil records shows though that evolution does happen over longer time scales. It is also inconsistent with your hypothesis.
Again it's a strawman argument from you because scientists aren't claiming that such large changes happen in such short time scales.

Yeah and my question still stands. So?
If it's so simple that you wonder why we can't get your point then it should be simple enough to explain it to us.
I've posted the context. You've told us that it's a rhetorical question and you've even tried to correct someone's grammar.
So what if "flight has been around a long time, and neither prayer or science had anything to do with it."
