What about MRSA and other antibiotic-resistant bacteria? Now TGAC points out how some insects are becoming resistant to insecticides.
If evolution is a false theory just made up by God-denying scientists, how do you explain this very real phenomena? Evolution explains it, does your god?
Waiting for an answer.... (which likely will never come)
But the bacteria are still bacteria. So there is no proof there.
The dogs are still dogs.
Cats are still cats.
Sure, the allele distribution in the population may change due to selective breeding or a change in the environment causing certain alleles to be more advantageous, but that is just already existing alleles. You might even have a new allele from a mutation. But the gene itself already existed.
Give all know evidence of one kind changing into another kind.
Without that you have no evidence.

Quote:Pesticide Resistance via Transposition-Mediated Adaptive Gene Truncation in Drosophila
To study adaptation, it is essential to identify multiple adaptive mutations and to characterize their molecular, phenotypic, selective, and ecological consequences. Here we describe a genomic screen for adaptive insertions of transposable elements in Drosophila. Using a pilot application of this screen, we have identified an adaptive transposable element insertion, which truncates a gene and apparently generates a functional protein in the process. The insertion of this transposable element confers increased resistance to an organophosphate pesticide and has spread in D. melanogaster recently.
I have no need to explain to you the concept of evolution aswell as the concept of mutation, let alone explain to you that a mutation is not just simply a thrid arm growing out of your back as a 8 year old may believe.
I simply have to show current examples of plants and animals gaining resistance to medication and pesticides and then wach you ignore this post since you dont have a viable explaination for current adaptations of species to it`s surroundings.
But they are still the same kind.
Provide one example of one kind becoming another kind.
