Re: Curious about Neo-Darwinian theory
Now lets take a look at sponges. Sponges are the simplest of all animals. They do not have neurons. But when we look at their genes we find that they too have the genes to make neurons. So at some point these genes which had one purpose in sponges began to be used to make nerve cells. I do not know...

Re: GULO
This has been discussed several times before, maybe search "ability to synthesize vitamin C". Pigs and Bats and a few others also lost this ability to synthesize vitamin C before L-gulonolactone oxidase gene was switched off via point mutation. It is interesting though. One could say this ...

Re: Curious about Neo-Darwinian theory
Curious about Neo-Darwinian theory? So am I! Please get back to me when you find evidence for it beyond the micro-level where even in micro-context insignificant changes have been observed not likely to produce anything else beyond extinction via accumulation of random mutations overtime. According ...

Re: ID...why isn't it religion?
ID is obviously not religion, anyone who thinks otherwise is living in Lala land.

Re: New missing link primate? (Ida)
Hi Proinsius, Regarding an alternative model, ID is not one of them. Darwinians skew the facts that IDst want to replace evolution. If you look at William Dembski's or Kirk Durston's work, the goal is to mathematically define FCSI (functional complex specified information) and use it to detect desig...

Re: New missing link primate? (Ida)
Questioning science is healthy - new ideas are explored. Even IF for example ID is wrong (which I doubt very much) Evolutionists had to open up their perspectives. BTW, alot of ID'st and creationists are evolutionists except they hold that the mechanism in question is incorrect for explaining more t...

Re: The scientific proof for Genesis
Pangea is interesting to me in terms of utilizing land area while supplying necessary resources since water would be distributed and supplied throughout.
Good job Gman!

Re: New missing link primate?
It gets worse. Each new "missing link" that is found would create two new gaps in its place. My opinion is that its probably in the millions, not merely external missing links, but internal. In software development a change in some "direction" can mean (depending on the project ...

Re: New missing link primate?
Not that I care to "dig deep" into this fossil but the fossil record to me is more discrete in nature as opposed to continuous or linear. A discrete fossil record indicates rapid emergent process of lifeforms. Abrupt appearance is very strange in a Darwinian world, this is where inconsiste...

Re: Atheist Toolbox : has someone the guts to go that trough ?
Personally I see science more as the product of Greek philosophy than of Christian thinking, but each to his own. Most of the great figures that paved the road for modern science make some reference to the christian God one way or the other. I think religion in general is the exploration of man's r...

Re: Atheist Toolbox : has someone the guts to go that trough ?
I think it was Osho who said that Indian religion is far less concerned with historical fact then Western religion. He used the Bhagavad Gita as his example, Krishna communicating with Arjuna on the battlefield. His reasoning was that those who put value in the Bhagavad Gita do so as they believe i...

Re: Bacterial Flagellum not irreducibly complex?
Hunh???? Instead of that you could ask a more specific question regarding design detection such as why its not applied to other things, such as the diversity of life. "Evolution" (phylogeny) seems to be a matter of an unfolding of existing preloaded information just as ontogeny is an unfo...

Re: participate at Atheist Forums
I did not say a hate for God or arrogance, I said a hate for God and arrogance (as in coupled with), that is a big difference, my good man.a hate for God is actuall an 'antithesit', and if you believe atheism is arrogance fine, but christianity is well up there too, my good man.
