To elaborate, reproductive isolation was achieved not through any novel bit of code but by relative light levels and the flies preference for them.......So, again, you are arguing against what has been observed, not once, not twice, but many.... many times. You are arguing against what we have observed happening both inside labs at our behest and outside of them unbeknownst (at least for a time) to us.
You're using a size of 35 generations as an example? Are you fucking kidding me? Assuming even an equivalent generation of 100 (three times the current breeding average where I live), that is only a span of 3500 years. That's just simple Darwin at that point...you need generations in the tens of thousands to actually show microevolution, which is why bacteria is very much desired as a test subject.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
