trivially
common descent shows up clearly in the genetics
well, I'll read some rebuttals now, I just finished the book today
How?
it does, not a super straight line as we don't have the dna of extinct shit, but what we have, makes alot of sense @fuguer
There would be a lot of descent from those many common ancestors
like all science, if evolution is true, then we expect to find genetic patterns consistent with it... and every single time we check, we do
well he doesn't deny the progression that has occured
for example, all the organisms might have a broken gene from a past mutation
So how do you know its inconsistent with multiple common ancestors?
he's not saying humans were just created, or that we didn't evolve
if they were all created separately theres no reason to expect them to share the same dysfunctional dna
yes, he doesn't deny we share the same ancestor
but its precisely what we expect with evolution
and we see it time and time again
Are you saying there are super old mutations that 90% of living things have?
yes
all he denies is the way by which new functionality is created
He says it is not through random mutations
again one example just for humans is vitamin C gene
we have a PERFECT copy of vitamin c synthesizing gene, but ours is broken, because our primate ancestors had so much fruit they could survive without it
lol
ah yeh, thats true, forgot about that.
sure if you want to talk about 90% of life on earth how about eukaryotes
it was a short term adaptation
Lactose tolerance, another one.
by breaking existing functionality
god just re-used the same template every time,
that's why there are similarities between species..
it's like in programming, God used Class()
prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, eukaryotes do, it was such a successful mutation it is noW the majority of life on earth
What if aliens created apes and we evolved from apes? I'm saying what would be different in that scenario vs the conventional one
aliens probably created tardigrades
@Rody Le Cid god only uses haskell for the matrix
if aliens created apes, we couldnt have reason to find that our vitamin c synthesizing gene which is broken exactly matches that of other common lines of descent in mammals
i have the prove of evolution and dinosaurs<:CHAD:396569198404435969>
we haven't observed the creation of complex mechanisms forming via random mutations
they come from eggs and are tastey
