Vision and Evolution (A Critique of Dawkins)

[John 6IX Breezy]

Go away?

Mutations don’t go away, the creatures and populations carrying them may go extinct or fail to pass them on.

Mutations aren’t wanted or unwanted.  There is no want.  They happen.

Again, there is no destination.  You keep talking about perhaps this perhaps that.  “Destinations” simply isn’t how we observe biology to act.  Being incapable of adaptation isn’t even a perceptual kind of destination or improvement or balance. It’s just the text on a populations tombstone.

Your perhaps-es refer to some other world, some other biology.  That’s not evolutionary theory’s problem.

Mutations do happen, but for reasons that will be diminished and protected against, as can be observed with codon degeneracy. Destinations do exist, as can be observed by the interplay between selection and adaptation. But again, agree to disagree.
