it doesn't

it just sounds sort of nice

you adapt to environment

nothing more

theres no moral/value/progress judgement

climate change , saving black ppl and vaping

@Nerthulas Whatever system of logic you deploy, it must reign supreme in order to achieve coherence

The body has so many obvious 'design' flaws, that no engineer would make us this way.

science

what's really going on is that we have no access to the world except through the lens and matrix by which we interpret and organize phenomena, the brain

@fuguer he uses the term to describe the breaking of existing functionality for short-term adaptation. Rather than creating new functionality all together. Like stunting beak length, for example

nice beauty mask

so it appears concrete to us

yes, of course most mutations are harmful

but not all

yes

I like evolution, if gives us a strong ideological basis for race and differences.

We should embrace & accept this reality.

and you have no concept of the time scales involved, the # of organiisms, generations, cellular reproduction

the dyer/darth position doesn't rely on positive evidence

well, even the "harmful" mutation can be beneficial. For example, the adaptation to malaria. It's actually just broken functionality

Ahhhhhhh

The best counter evolution I've heard of is what if a bunch of organisms were created at the same time by aliens and then evolved as normal AFTER that?

Cambrian explosion maybe.

thats not a counter thats a "wouldnt it be cool if"

but we dont need aliens to explain cambrian explusion

mutations is how we get X-men..
so, necessary for the next step in human evolution

the problem with that is that it just pushes it back one step

Tfw you'll never smell her gooch

show bob

you then have to ask: what causes the aliens to be alive?

god

so it doesn't solve the problem at all
