Prove it. :p I can live for a year, can I therefore live for a million?

The fallacy here, of course, is the false equivocation between what an individual is capable of compared to successive generations. Evolution works on the generational level.

But to engage your original analogy of walking a billion miles, that's the whole principle between generation starships; that the vessel is launched and the descendants of the original crew and passengers eventually disembark at their destination.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

OTOH, I have family to Skype. Bye.
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh

If you wish to draw a line in the continuum of biological change beyond which further difference is impossible please state that line and why it exists... other than 'because I said so.'

The empirically observable genetic entropy rates are far too great. You’d have better luck walking those billion miles.

What proof?

(February 4, 2014 at 9:00 pm)JuliaL Wrote: Please cite references to your 'empirical evidence.'
Or is this just another 'because I said so?'

You’re not familiar with the documented rates of genetic entropy?

The one-way speed of light can be stipulated to have positional dependence rather than velocity dependence.

Quote:And they are...? And the evidence for them is...?

Generational rates of genetic entropy are far too great for that many generations to be viable. Just as I cannot walk a billion miles because I cannot live long enough to do so, all life cannot arise from one single ancestor because the genetic information cannot survive the numbers of replications necessary to do so.
