No. That would completely turn evolutionary theory on its head. Your winking face is worrying because you clearly don't even understand what evolutionary theory predicts. And that amuses you? Does it mean you think you are in a position to tease?

Nope. You are saying that because humans can design things using their intelligence, the world has been designed with intelligence. I don't see that the conclusion follows the premise.

I've only studied biology to a Leaving Cert level (and some study outside of that) but you lack a basic understanding to how evolution works. A crocodile did not need wings to survive so they they didn't develop them over millions of years. There's actually something rather beautiful about how the evolutionary process works but it's lost on you....

![]() but that's fantasy of evolution, in reality,, mutations create no of genetic defects like hamophilia etc, and you know what does evolutionary change suppose to mean.... How could this be possible, doc |

Mutation are very rare and mutation are 1000 times more harmful than they are useful, right. Mutation creates no of genetic defects. All this is fantasy which is being shown in media "New traits" ... Some atomic event creates people with gnarled skin---There are 3 major issues that arrest scientific computation from mutational change to evolutionary change. 1. First problem is related to math, as evolutionist will agree with me that mutation are very rare and we are talking about mutations which could change a frog into poet .2. second problem is mutation often go into the wrong direction. They create certain abnormalities in population. 3. mutations are sometime produce by radiation / replication errors. See, it's cycle, design needs human and human needs something to compete the cycle. The same being who is infinite, can't be created Last edited by dead one; 03-05-2012 at 05:55. |

Evolutionary theory predicts nothing about the future of any species (unless we have particularly good insight into their environmental pressures). Evolution is blind, species can "meander" for great lengths of time, there is no "end-point".
If we know of a specific environmental pressure, we can reasonably make short-term predictions about evolution. Bacteria will evolve to take advantage of a novel nutritional substrate, crabs that live in the dark may lose their eyes. We have observed such predictions in nature and in the lab. Quote:

Mutations are mostly neutral - they cause neither harm nor benefit. So, we are left only to observe the obvious mutations, those causing distinct benefit and those causing distinct harm. Most may be harmful, but some are not. Some are distinctly beneficial to the host organism. This is the material that evolution works with. Quote:
And anyway, we aren't talking about mutations that would turn a frog into a poet. Evolution is a tree, not a line. We didn't come from chimps, we came from a common ancestor that split into two populations, one giving rise to modern humans, one giving rise to modern chimps. The frogs we see today are far down their evolutionary line - there's nothing that could possibly turn a frog into Shakespeare. Quote:
Quote:
Tim Minchin: But evolution is only a theory! ... that - that maybe they feel the same way about the theory of gravity… and they might just float the f*ck away. There is no "faith" to be had in evolution, in the same way that gravity does not require "faith". Right, you have a LOT of people on this thread who understand evolutionary theory. Many of them will be scientists, may of them will have top qualifications their field. And all of them will say: evolution does not proceed by chance, it proceeds by the directed non-random process of natural selection. How many times do you need to be told? |
