Blowing Up Darwin

[otto105]

"Darwin did not offer to explain life on earth."

I am so disapointed: surely you can come up with a more substantial lie than that.


What is the name of Darwin's own book?

And what is a "species"? And where are they found?



Let's quote the very book, one which you clearly never consulted:

"THE ABRUPT manner in which whole groups of species suddenly appear in certain formations, has been urged by several palæontologists—for instance, by Agassiz, Pictet, and Sedgwick—as a fatal objection to the belief in the transmutation of species. If numerous species, belonging to the same genera or families, have really started into life at once, the fact would be fatal to the theory of evolution through natural selection." Darwin, "On The Origin of Species," p.302

“Why, if species have descended from other species by insensibly fine gradations, do we not everywhere see innumerable transitional forms.”ch.6

. To the question why we do not find records of these vast primordial periods, I can give no satisfactory answer.”
Darwin, "On The Origin of Speices," chapter nine


I once had respect for you......had.

Heil Shitler! kept the press from reporting it.

 

[PoliticalChic]

Contrary to the lie above, post #896, darwin even created a 'tree of life on earth" to show his predicted theory.


. In "Origin," Darwin provided his famous tree diagram, which illustrated his idea of universal common descent, with higher taxa emerging from lower ones via the accumulation of slight variations. "The diagram illustrates the steps by which small differences distinguishing varieties are increased into larger differences distinguishing species.." Darwin, "On The Origin of Species," p.120.

In short, diversity would precede disparity ( 'disparity' refers to major differences that separate phyla, classes and orders.)

But the actual pattern in the fossil record contradicts this prediction. In actuality, the fossil record shows representatives of separate phyla appearing first followed by lower-level diversification.



Darwin posited evolution based on a gradual series of small changes, many of which would result in doom for the organism, as most mutations are lethal, but some which would make same better equipped to survive, and be passed on.

But early on, contemporary paleontologists and geologists found contrary fossil evidence: the Cambrian explosion revealed "geologically abrupt appearance of a menagerie of animals as various as any found in the gaudiest science fiction."

a. "During this explosion of fauna, representatives of about twenty of the roughly twenty-six total phyla present in the known fossil record made their first appearance on earth." Meyers, "Darwin's Doubt," p. 31.

b. " To the question why we do not find rich fossiliferous deposits belonging to these assumed earliest periods prior to the Cambrian system, I can give no satisfactory answer..... The case at present must remain inexplicable; and may be truly urged as a valid argument against the views here entertained.

See?

You don't even know the science you're complaining about.

What is the name of Darwin's own book?

And what is a "species"? And where are they found?

You're out of scope.

Let's quote the very book, one which you clearly never consulted:

I've read Darwin cover to cover, just as I've read the Bible cover to cover. Many times.

No one ever asked for your blessing.

Hilarious

Have you presented this so-called "evidence" to the flat earth society?

 

[Kruska]

The elements to create almost anything exist in the Universe but, it takes an intellect to put them together to make something.

Why would it act the way it does and organize itself?

That is what Science is working on - since religion doesn't offer any explanation (aside from God aka ID) without any proof.

Keep digging and let us know. So far all the 'digging' has only produced more questions.

Naturally digging produces further questions - e.g. breaking the sonic barrier, brought the question as to what materials are needed to handle speed frictions above e.g. Mach 2. and so on - SCIENCE DOESN'T REST unlike those repetitious religious claims.

ID is no dead end, it is a hypothesis.

Without any proof nor any research - simply a propagated hypothesis, based entirely onto those desert books.

Just like believing evolution is the key to the origin of life.

Evolution is the PROVEN key to the development of life on earth - it's exact and entire development isn't known yet - e.g. did a meteor/asteroid contribute as well - was it even essential? - that's all.

Pretty long post to say ‘I don’t know.’

 

[Woodznutz]

Nonsense. Biological evolution is a proven fact. As much as that contradicts the losers and charlatans you worship at the Disco’tute, none of your endless cutting and pasting of “quotes” has refuted the science.

"Science" will be the death of us.

 

[Hollie]

"Science" will be the death of us.

Science will assist but ultimately when your gods return for the final conflagration, whoopee, we're all gonna' die.

You do know it was Science that gave us modern medical advances such as antibiotics, right?

"But for the elect's sake those days will be shortened". So, there's hope fer ya.

 

[Woodznutz]

They've done some good things, yes. But turning leftover gunpowder into fertilizer wasn't one of them.

Hope for you too, to be among the fat, naked babies playing harps?

Science may eventually cure cancer, the cell blueprint so graciously supplied by the gods.

Well, I do play the guitar.

 

[Woodznutz]

They should work to prevent disease. Sadly, medical science is only interested in sick people (of course they have their hands full). Worse, sick people depend on medical science to patch them up so they can continue to do what is killing them, kinda like "frequent flyer" drug users in the ED..

Did you actually write this????????

"Darwin did not offer to explain life on earth."

Tell the truth....it's been downhill since you started hangin' out with Jack.........Daniels.

Yes, Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection was specifically designed to explain the variety of life on Earth, proposing that all living organisms descended from a common ancestor and diversified over time through adaptations to their environment, resulting in the vast array of species we see today.


You have brought into doubt everything you have written.

What proof has science developed for Darwin's thesis?



"THE ABRUPT manner in which whole groups of species suddenly appear in certain formations, has been urged by several palæontologists—for instance, by Agassiz, Pictet, and Sedgwick—as a fatal objection to the belief in the transmutation of species. If numerous species, belonging to the same genera or families, have really started into life at once, the fact would be fatal to the theory of evolution through natural selection."

Since you believe in God - replace science with God, after all he is humanities biggest foe and murderer - according to your Bible

You are obviously clueless about paleontology, anthropology, geology, oceanography, physics, archaeology, and other branches of science which collectively support the Theory of Evolution.
