Vision and Evolution (A Critique of Dawkins)
RE: Vision and Evolution (A Critique of Dawkins)
(August 7, 2019 at 6:50 am)John 6IX Breezy Wrote: Well the backwards in time predictions is what I'm saying or looking for. Which is why pointing at plants, for example, doesn't do much for the conversation unless we're predicting that there were plant-like ancestors in our evolutionary lineage; or predicting how plants can evolve eyes, if they ever do.

As to the jellyfish. I guess to summarize what I've said in the past, I'm not concerned with the specific components that organisms have or don't have; I'm not saying a brain is needed to survive or eyes to sense the environment. So again, we have to insert the jellyfish into a talk about evolution for my OP to apply. For example, how jelly fish evolved, or how they can evolve to something like our system.


Right. So Tiktaalik then.

You have said you don't understand the whole eyes/brain thing.

I was just pointing to a critter that has eyes and no brain because for a while that seemd to be to biological things you were hooked up on.

So... as for how things came to be?






 I've found this to be erudite and entertaining.   Great 

Cheers.

Not at work.
