Or an intellectual need.

It works in reverse. The limbic system is more powerful then the prefrontal cortex and starts the thinking process. Emotions can determine what you think you know. When you have thought it started as an emotional impulse

 

[Hafar1014]

One individual does not, cannot "evolve." Darwinian evolution is a change in alleles, or DNA.
Nobody's DNA changes during their entire lifetime. Impossible.

Like all animals and humans, Adam "learned." That's all. Non-scientists can also be idiots, particularly if they are godless Leftists. (Mao Tse Tung, Adolf Hitler, Kim Jong Un, Vladimir Putin)

Animals dont have morals. Adam was taught by God in the allegory. Then Adam went on trial for his freedom
One person can evolve thats how it works. Thats why humans are so different. We adapt as individuals but groups will adapt the same way in the same environment.

Evolution is a Fact
God is a Theory

Evolution is actually theory.

Bullshit.

You've never seen a guilty dog?

Evolution is actually theory.

A theory proven by massive evidence geologically, biologically and through DNA

The theory of God is unsupported by evidence

 

[Hafar1014]

Bullshit.

You've never seen a guilty dog?

Thats fear not guilt

 

[scruffy]

Thats fear not guilt

Horseshit.

You're trying to perpetrate the ancient myth that humans are special.

Sorry, won't fly anymore. Science has advanced way beyond that malarkey.

The theory of God is unsupported by evidence

The theory of evolution has not been proved at all.

It is widely accepted in science that it appears to be supported. But, no. It hasn’t been “proved.”

That isn’t how science works.

In 1962, my high school algebra teacher told the class, "If you put all the monkeys in the world in a room with all the typewriters in the world, they would eventually write all the books in the world."

Gullible kids that we all were, nobody thought through the mathematics, much less challenged the teacher. We simply accepted it as logically thought out. Such is the case with so much of evolutionary biology.

Typewriter keyboards, archaic and modern computer as well, have at least 100 different keys that can be struck, counting numbers, punctuation, and case.

Let's assume there are 50 letters on an average line and 50 lines on an average page. This totals 2,500 characters PER PAGE.

The probability of monkeys striking keys randomly to produce just a single page of any book is 1/100 to the 2,500th power, or 10 to the -5,000.

Since I previously showed the impossibility of only 10 to the -50, this is far beyond mere impossibility and yet a prominent scientist claimed that all the monkeys in the world could eventually type all the books in the British Museum.

No matter how many zeros you add, infinity is greater.

CE is a prime example of dangerous ignorance.

A cursory search on Google reveals two dozen ways that our DNA changes during the lifetime of an individual.

The best known example is V(D)J recombination in developing T cells. Our immune system wouldn't work at all without it.

Inside our bodies there is homologous recombination, site specific recombination, transposition, chromosomal rearrangement, and half a dozen intelligent repair mechanisms.

I don't think the need for practical truth and emotions are compatible.

 

[scruffy]

I don't think the need for practical truth and emotions are compatible.

Of course they are. That's what your ventromedial prefrontal cortex is for. It "makes sense of" your feelings, and tells you logically what your feelings should be in a given situation. It is reciprocally connected with the amygdala, which is the emotional part of the limbic system. It is also connected with the lateral prefrontal cortex which provides context for situations.

All mammals have a prefrontal cortex. In evolution it arises from the need for decision making. The emotional context is reward and threat processing. In rodents the PFC is agranular, whereas in primates and humans it is granular and highly developed. In humans it handles value based decision making, emotional regulation, and self control.

Specific portions of vmPFC handle social interactions. Relationships, status in the community, personal and family advantage, lying and cheating, and what we would call "morality".

Dogs in particular, are among the first creatures to have granular connectivity similar to humans. The PFC in dogs is smaller and less developed than in humans, but the basic connection pattern is the same.

The theory of Evolution is a FACT
As much a fact as the theory of gravity and the earth being round.

The FACT that complex creatures evolved from simple creatures cannot be denied.

The hows and whys may be debated, but the fact that it happens is irrefutable

That theory has actually been tested.

A scientist put keyboards into the cages with monkeys to record key strokes and determine the probability of forming actual words.

The experiment was terminated when he found that all the monkeys would do was shit all over the keyboards

Evolution is actually theory.

And a very poor one. Over 1,000 PhDs have signed the letter refuting Darwinian evolution. No scientists have ever refuted gravity. It is impossible that so many hundreds of papers and books have been written which refute Darwinism with facts, data, and research if they were all wrong and could not see it. Darwin admitted to being a mediocre student, and today his followers are also mediocre.

Evolution replaces God. That makes it pretty popular. Belief in evolution doesn't require or suggest changes in behavior.

Evolution does NOT replace God. If there is a God, He created this world and evolution was one of His tools. If you deny evolution you deny God.

Google response:

No, an individual organism cannot evolve within its own lifetime; evolution is a process that occurs over many generations, affecting populations, not individuals. While individuals may experience developmental changes or environmental adaptations during their lives, these are not changes in their genes and therefore not considered evolution. True evolutionary change involves shifts in the inherited genetic makeup of a population over time, driven by mechanisms like mutation and natural selection.

Why individuals don't evolve:

• Inherited traits:
  An individual is born with a set of genes that do not change over its lifetime.
  
  
• Generational process:
  Evolution is a change in the frequency of alleles (forms of genes) within a population across generations.
