You know those myths exist, but you cannot quote them? How are we supposed to know your statements have any credibility if you don't quote sources? Since when has accurate citations been any kind of requirement on this site? Despite bringing it up many times before, I rarely ever see those condemni...

Please visit my new anti-evolution website; http://www.evolutionsucks.org The battle against evolution intensifies! Quick question arising from your "scientific" website (sarcasm)...what is your explanation for the observation that cetaceans have finger, hand, and wrist structure similar ...

It is true that DNA governs how proteins are made and how the brain is made. But in my opinion, a mind is a blank slate in the earliest stages of life. DNA absolutely cannot determine behavior. It has long been known that changes in genetic makeup can cause detectable behavioral differences. Most o...

Really can you name say 500 dinos, or say 250? If you're asking if I personally can recite long lists of dinosaur names off the top of my head, then of course not. I'm no paleontology buff, but that doesn't mean the species never existed. Check out "Dinosaur species list" as a web search ...

Not only the Floodgates of Heaven but remember the Ducts in the Earth also Opened... However just because we have not seen the monsters does not mean they are not there Don't really know what you're point is with the first part of the statement, but as far as the second...are you saying you persona...

Many of today's marine organisms, especially estuarine and tidepool species, are able to survive large changes in salinity. For example, starfish will tolerate as low as 16-18 percent of the normal concentration of seawater. Many, but not all or even a majority. What is your explanation for the pre...

So the mouse is going to have a mutation just incase future generations could find it helpful in case they grow wings. This is funny. I think I have less respect for evolution now then before, thanks. Selection does not act upon what may traits may be beneficial in the future, only what is benefici...

Please show how animals are changed by their ability to reproduce.
- check out "Sexual Selection" by Malte Andersson (1994), or simply do an internet search on "directional selection" for more examples of reproduction affecting morphology than you can shake a stick at...

Do you have a link to show how a group of isolated amphibians of the same sex will change sex? I know I didn't post the original comments about amphibians, but it is common knowledge that many coral reef fish change sex when one sex become locally extinct. If you do a simple internet search on &quo...

I'm not sure what you are trying to get at. I guess you are asking my why different breeding groups of animals are slightly different. I'm sure it has something to do with the DNA of the animals. The fact that they are not turning out exactley like animals in other gene pools lends evidence to the ...

First since you demonstrated how the traits I listed were not beneficial If you go back and read my statement again, I did not say these traits had anything to do with being beneficial. I insinuated that these traits affect survival (positively or negatively) which is contrary to what the author in...

I guess the question is how you define organism? Very touchy subject indeed. The easiest definition a la Webster's is simply "a living body" or "plants, animals, and bacteria", which would then lead to the question of "what is living"? if you choose the first definitio...

I was reading through this article and it struck me as funny that Darwin received some inspiration for his theory of evolution from animal husbandry. Does nayone think it odd that if evolution does "what feeble man can do" why would these animal keepers engage in selective breeding at all...

Can you tell us what "life" constitutes in the ToE? In other words, what did the common ancestor look like that requires the ToE to work?
