Intelligent men playing in the laboratory. Secondly there is evolution. It's called adaptability. From where did the adaptors come? That is the question.



Lines of evidence: The science of evolution : "Richard Lenski of Michigan State University is in charge of the world's longest-running evolution experiment. Since 1988, Lenski has been tracking 12 populations of Escherichia coli bacteria in his lab. The bacteria are left to their own devices in storage containers, with nutrients to feed on, and Lenski's team regularly freezes small samples.
The E. coli are no longer the same as they were in 1988. "In all 12 populations, the bacteria have evolved to grow much faster than did their ancestor," says Lenski. They have adapted to the specific mix of chemicals he gives them.
"It's a very direct demonstration of Darwin's idea of adaptation by natural selection. Now, 20-some years into the experiment, the typical lineage grows about 80% faster than did the ancestor."



Seems like Mendel started this type of work in 1865.

This is simple genetic variation.... genetics, not evolution..... natural selection is not evolution. Do you see how “genetics” and “natural selection” have been characterized as “micro evolution?” Simple propaganda to get folks to,think that evolution has been proven. It has not.

Do you see this is nothing more than what Darwin observed in the finches?

This e Coli is still E. coli. Same as breeding big dogs, little dogs, dogs with long hair, dogs with good noses. All are still dogs. Not cats and not raccoons.... they are all still dogs.

There is nothing to see here.....sos




Wrong on two counts.

Genetics was used by the Egyptians and they used Fibonacci sequences as their "algebra" to explain the mechanics.

some Biology (outdated taxonomy) uses as their "algebra" to explain differences, or when their is a difference -- the math of Bertrand Russell -- Set Theory, or Boolean type logic
instead of Fuzzy Logic of Zadeh, as in when does a cat become a dog.

like comparing apples and oranges hmmm

apples and oranges have more in common than not in common

same size
same weight
almost same amt. of carbohydrates
both have seeds
both can be cut with a knife.

Most people don't have what it takes to get old
