The More We Learn, the Less Room There is for Evolution

[sealybobo]

Linking to propaganda proves nothing. I can just as easily link to a report saying the opposite.

Fact remains, there are many species around today that are just like their ancestors from "millions of years" ago. Evolution of one species into another is a myth.

But you understand no land animals started out a land animal, right?? God didn't produce gerbils goats and eagles. They evolved from fish. It's true. God didn't poof them into exist

I still want to know how you think it's possible to de evolve from a strong as hell , fury creature ...to a weak ass pink creature (oh wait you think the skin is black under furry creatures)


In the wild..... Where the strong get the mates....??



Was it like proof with shopping malls and McDonald's and stuff?

Simple. If life is easy then we get weaker not stronger. If we look for beauty and not the biggest woman who can pull a plow then we get smaller.

We do it with dogs. We make them bald, small, gentle, smarter

You ever skin a dear?



.

I hope none of you have ever skinned a dear.....

I have. About 7 of them in my life

What made match.com? A human. It can be scientifically explained. So can all the things we don't know. There's an answer we just don't know it, yet. And some things we may never know like what happens when you die.

What a racket. Telling people you know what happens

And using it to judge people and to tell people how to live their lives. That is what really pisses me off. Making social and political based on a myth is sad.

Really pisses you lefties off at people being told the greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. The left foam at the mouth at anyone saying they should not be self centered, your post attests to that.

There are three essential questions we may ask, none with a simple answer: When did life originate? Where did life originate? How did life originate? How does a mix of nonliving chemicals become living? From a scientific perspective, we may find clues for how life may have originated by finding the oldest signs of life possible. We can't ever be sure that what we find is the oldest life on Earth.

We do know that for the first 600 million years or so of its existence, Earth was not a safe environment for life. But around 3.9 billion years ago, things quieted down, after what is known as the Late Heavy Bombardment.

One of the oldest pieces of accepted evidence for life dates from 3.25 billion-year-old hydrothermal vent deposits at Pilbara Craton in Australia. The dates there can be pushed to 3.48 billion years ago. How do scientists date such old rocks? Using well-known radioactive decay techniques based on unstable isotopes found on the site.

Interestingly, chemical fingerprints from the mineralization process show that those living creatures had already a complex metabolism, indicating that earlier, simpler life existed.

Life shouldn't be hard to find in other planets or moons out there, including Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, or Enceladus, belonging to Saturn. Both have oceans of liquid water under a thick icy crust and show promising signs of hydrothermal vent activity.

However old first life was, we know that living creatures with sophisticated metabolisms were moving about and reproducing at least 400 million years after the Late Heavy Bombardment, a blink of an eye in geological time. If anything, this tells us that whatever that early life was, it took advantage of the primal Earth environment to blossom. And, since then, it never stopped — at least on this planet.

The question of when did life originate is a very simple question. And the answer does not involve dirt evolving into humans creating Beethoven's 5th or David Copperfield without assistance.

The question is simple- the answer is not.

Even for the fairytalists who believe a fairy poofed life into existence, it begs the question- where did the fairy come from?

Of course where life came from is not central or necessary for the theory of evolution.

Even if your fairy created the first hint of life, life then evolved from that.

No fairy poofed dinosaurs and giraffes into existence 6,000 years ago.

You think all the universe existed forever, used to be the size of a quarter, blew up on its own and resulted in Beethovens 5th being created.

You have more faith than I.

Not true. Give this 1 million years and who knows what this fungus will turn into



I told you a new bacteria was found at the bottom of the dead sea. Never been seen before

That bacteria has been in that lake for thousands of years. Just because we just found it does not mean it wasn't there yesterday. And it will always remain bacteria.

But glad you brought up the Dead Sea. Upstream in the Sea of Galilee are Talapia fish, they've been locked there for over 7 million years with no changes.

You have more faith than I.

What do you mean when you said the universe "existed forever"? The current universe is not the way it was 12 billions years ago. A lot of stars that were burning back then are not anymore. And our star wasn't even here 12 billion years ago. So no one knows what you mean when you say "existed forever". Chances are you are wrong in your conclusion.

And do you not believe the big bang?

The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model for the universe[1] from the earliest known periods through its subsequent large-scale evolution.[2][3][4] The model describes how the universe expanded from a very high density and high temperature state,[5][6] and offers a comprehensive explanation for a broad range of phenomena, including the abundance of light elements, the cosmic microwave background, large scale structure and Hubble's Law.[7] If the known laws of physics are extrapolated to the highest density regime, the result is a singularity which is typically associated with the Big Bang. Detailed measurements of the expansion rate of the universe place this moment at approximately 13.8 billion years ago, which is thus considered the age of the universe.[8] After the initial expansion, the universe cooled sufficiently to allow the formation of subatomic particles, and later simple atoms. Giant clouds of these primordial elements later coalesced through gravity in halos of dark matter, eventually forming the stars and galaxies visible today.

What is your theory and where do you get these theories from?

I told you a new bacteria was found at the bottom of the dead sea. Never been seen before

That bacteria has been in that lake for thousands of years. Just because we just found it does not mean it wasn't there yesterday. And it will always remain bacteria.

But glad you brought up the Dead Sea. Upstream in the Sea of Galilee are Talapia fish, they've been locked there for over 7 million years with no changes.

No you are wrong. I don't think you know what you are talking about. That bacteria if given enough time will turn into single cell organisms and then multiple cell organisms. It's true.

Tilapia (/tᵻˈlɑːpi.ə/ ti-lah-pee-ə) is the common name for nearly a hundred species of cichlid fish from the tilapiine cichlid tribe. Tilapia can become problematic invasive species in new warm-water habitats such as Australia, whether deliberately or accidentally introduced, but generally not in temperate climates due to their inability to survive in cold water.

No change in 7 million years?

Cichlids /ˈsɪklᵻdz/ are fish from the family Cichlidae in the order Perciformes. Cichlids are members of a suborder known as Labroidei, along with the wrasses (Labridae), damselfishes (Pomacentridae), and surfperches (Embiotocidae).[1] This family is both large and diverse. At least 1,650 species have been scientifically described,[2]making it one of the largest vertebrate families. New species are discovered annually, and many species remain undescribed. The actual number of species is therefore unknown, with estimates varying between 2,000 and 3,000

a diverse and economically important group containing the genera Oreochromis, Sarotherodon, and Tilapia. A number of smaller genera, such as Alcolapia, Danakilia, Iranocichla, and Steatocranus are also placed herein. They are now placed in the subfamily Pseudocrenilabrinae of African and Middle Eastern cichlids; formerly, these were often regarded as a distinct subfamily Tilapiinae

And you share a common ancestor with Tilapiinae.

Personally, I find a lot of wisdom of the accounts written that supposedly are the words of the man named Jesus.

Love thy neighbor as thyself is very wise.

Teaching people to love your enemies too- and pointing out how much harder that is- the concept behind that command- that is brilliant.

Just because i don't believe in your fairies- and recognize science- doesn't mean I can't recognize the wisdoms in the world's great religions.

One of the oldest pieces of accepted evidence for life dates from 3.25 billion-year-old hydrothermal vent deposits at Pilbara Craton in Australia. The dates there can be pushed to 3.48 billion years ago. How do scientists date such old rocks? Using well-known radioactive decay techniques based on unstable isotopes found on the site.

Interestingly, chemical fingerprints from the mineralization process show that those living creatures had already a complex metabolism, indicating that earlier, simpler life existed.

Life shouldn't be hard to find in other planets or moons out there, including Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, or Enceladus, belonging to Saturn. Both have oceans of liquid water under a thick icy crust and show promising signs of hydrothermal vent activity.

However old first life was, we know that living creatures with sophisticated metabolisms were moving about and reproducing at least 400 million years after the Late Heavy Bombardment, a blink of an eye in geological time. If anything, this tells us that whatever that early life was, it took advantage of the primal Earth environment to blossom. And, since then, it never stopped — at least on this planet.

The question of when did life originate is a very simple question. And the answer does not involve dirt evolving into humans creating Beethoven's 5th or David Copperfield without assistance.

Not true. Give this 1 million years and who knows what this fungus will turn into



I told you a new bacteria was found at the bottom of the dead sea. Never been seen before

That bacteria has been in that lake for thousands of years. Just because we just found it does not mean it wasn't there yesterday. And it will always remain bacteria.

But glad you brought up the Dead Sea. Upstream in the Sea of Galilee are Talapia fish, they've been locked there for over 7 million years with no changes.

No you are wrong. I don't think you know what you are talking about. That bacteria if given enough time will turn into single cell organisms and then multiple cell organisms. It's true.

Tilapia (/tᵻˈlɑːpi.ə/ ti-lah-pee-ə) is the common name for nearly a hundred species of cichlid fish from the tilapiine cichlid tribe. Tilapia can become problematic invasive species in new warm-water habitats such as Australia, whether deliberately or accidentally introduced, but generally not in temperate climates due to their inability to survive in cold water.

No change in 7 million years?

Cichlids /ˈsɪklᵻdz/ are fish from the family Cichlidae in the order Perciformes. Cichlids are members of a suborder known as Labroidei, along with the wrasses (Labridae), damselfishes (Pomacentridae), and surfperches (Embiotocidae).[1] This family is both large and diverse. At least 1,650 species have been scientifically described,[2]making it one of the largest vertebrate families. New species are discovered annually, and many species remain undescribed. The actual number of species is therefore unknown, with estimates varying between 2,000 and 3,000

a diverse and economically important group containing the genera Oreochromis, Sarotherodon, and Tilapia. A number of smaller genera, such as Alcolapia, Danakilia, Iranocichla, and Steatocranus are also placed herein. They are now placed in the subfamily Pseudocrenilabrinae of African and Middle Eastern cichlids; formerly, these were often regarded as a distinct subfamily Tilapiinae

And you share a common ancestor with Tilapiinae.

After 7 million years it's still a Talipia and call me when your bacteria becomes a hamster.

When DNA mutates, it is never in a beneficial way. Go make some random code changes to your computer operating system and let us know how much better it is.

The question of when did life originate is a very simple question. And the answer does not involve dirt evolving into humans creating Beethoven's 5th or David Copperfield without assistance.

The question is simple- the answer is not.

Even for the fairytalists who believe a fairy poofed life into existence, it begs the question- where did the fairy come from?

Of course where life came from is not central or necessary for the theory of evolution.

Even if your fairy created the first hint of life, life then evolved from that.

No fairy poofed dinosaurs and giraffes into existence 6,000 years ago.

You think all the universe existed forever, used to be the size of a quarter, blew up on its own and resulted in Beethovens 5th being created

I do? Wow that is amazing that you believe you can read my mind and know what I 'think'.

I happen to agree with the consensus opinion of scientists- that the theory of evolution best explains the diversity of life on Earth.

Do you believe dinosaurs and man lived at the same time- for example in North America?

So you deny the primary explanation for the formation of the universe?.

When did I deny that? Please provide that quote

So you don't believe in evolution- how do you believe the platypus ended up on Australia and Dinosaurs in North America?

I'm not surprised you avoid answering when was matter created.

What made match.com? A human. It can be scientifically explained. So can all the things we don't know. There's an answer we just don't know it, yet. And some things we may never know like what happens when you die.

What a racket. Telling people you know what happens

And using it to judge people and to tell people how to live their lives. That is what really pisses me off. Making social and political based on a myth is sad.

Really pisses you lefties off at people being told the greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. The left foam at the mouth at anyone saying they should not be self centered, your post attests to that.

Really pisses you righties off at people being told that they should love their enemies as yourself. The right foam at the mouth at anyone saying that they should not be hate centered.

Your post attests to that.

Too funny. Now atheists think a higher authority directs them to love others as themselves.

This atheist thinks its funny that you righties who spend their life spouting hatred towards your neighbors ignore the teachings of the man you declare to be your god.

Personally, I find a lot of wisdom of the accounts written that supposedly are the words of the man named Jesus.

Love thy neighbor as thyself is very wise.

Teaching people to love your enemies too- and pointing out how much harder that is- the concept behind that command- that is brilliant.

Just because i don't believe in your fairies- and recognize science- doesn't mean I can't recognize the wisdoms in the world's great religions.

The only one spouting hate is you, thanks for the post validating it.

There are three essential questions we may ask, none with a simple answer: When did life originate? Where did life originate? How did life originate? How does a mix of nonliving chemicals become living? From a scientific perspective, we may find clues for how life may have originated by finding the oldest signs of life possible. We can't ever be sure that what we find is the oldest life on Earth.

We do know that for the first 600 million years or so of its existence, Earth was not a safe environment for life. But around 3.9 billion years ago, things quieted down, after what is known as the Late Heavy Bombardment.

You have more faith than I.

What do you mean when you said the universe "existed forever"? The current universe is not the way it was 12 billions years ago. A lot of stars that were burning back then are not anymore. And our star wasn't even here 12 billion years ago. So no one knows what you mean when you say "existed forever". Chances are you are wrong in your conclusion.

And do you not believe the big bang?

The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model for the universe[1] from the earliest known periods through its subsequent large-scale evolution.[2][3][4] The model describes how the universe expanded from a very high density and high temperature state,[5][6] and offers a comprehensive explanation for a broad range of phenomena, including the abundance of light elements, the cosmic microwave background, large scale structure and Hubble's Law.[7] If the known laws of physics are extrapolated to the highest density regime, the result is a singularity which is typically associated with the Big Bang. Detailed measurements of the expansion rate of the universe place this moment at approximately 13.8 billion years ago, which is thus considered the age of the universe.[8] After the initial expansion, the universe cooled sufficiently to allow the formation of subatomic particles, and later simple atoms. Giant clouds of these primordial elements later coalesced through gravity in halos of dark matter, eventually forming the stars and galaxies visible today.

What is your theory and where do you get these theories from?

Where did your matter come from?

Oh! I know the answer!!! Pick me!

Answer: Inside a star. That's right a sun (not son) died billions of years ago so I could live.

The chemical elements of life such as carbon, magnesium, and calcium were originally created in the interior furnaces of stars and then released by stellar explosions.

“The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff.” Carl Sagan

Hundreds of species are called Tilapia.

Just because they are all the same family doesn't make them all the exact same thing.

Call me when your fairy in the sky creates a new species.

That's the problem you have. You mock the existence of God always being there but you have to tell us matter has always been there.

Time and space are eternal. Our sun, our planet and even every star in our universe will die someday. And none of the stars you see in the sky were here 15 billion years ago. But it all existed at least in some state. This "universe" that we live in might have just been a big huge dark empty place until the big bang lit it up like a xmas tree.

If you understand that the universe is eternal then you realize there is no need for god. So worship the universe not some imaginary creator that you believe must have created it. Just worship what you know is real. The universe is real.

Do you believe that all life on earth was created at the same moment in time- and is still exactly the same as it was created by some magical entity?
