It is difficult enough to study what is happening now. To figure out exactly what happened in evolution is even more difficult. Thus evolutionary achievements can be used as hints to suggest possible lines of research, but it is highly dangerous to trust them too much. It is all too easy to make mistaken inferences unless the process involved is already very well understood.

I can well understand why you did not quote the preceding sentence in this quote, as it rather undermines your point.  The prior sentence reads, "Biologists must constantly keep in mind that what they see was not designed, but rather evolved."  But thanks for showing that you're simply yet another quote mining creatard.


Idiots who deliberately mislead are best placed on ignore.  Bye bye HL.
