Hi everyone, I will answer questions here.
There is only one true god and it is oblivion. Which is not a god. Or a thing. But it is everything. It takes a while to explain which is why i think we should start with q
Truth nuke. People see this "perfect" system and think it is obviously indicative of design, when it's really just the harsh reality of the environment and fellow lifeforms eliminating the less adapted.

Go back and carefully re-read your bolded text. Whose word is "decision", and why is it in quotes?
lol still won't answer.
I think you are confusing your lack of comprehension with my "flailing".
Sorry. I really can't help you, if you can't take personal responsibility and do some more reading.
Xellos raised a question that includes as an inherent assumption, something that is false.
If I were to ask you the common example of "when did you stop beating your wife" or "when did you stop stealing from your employer" you would be just as unable to answer it, because the assumption required to effectively answer it, i.e. "you are beating your wife" or "you are/were stealing from your employer" are false.
Quite frankly, I am just as confused as to what question you think I am avoiding.
The answer to the questions above is:how in the do complex creatures evolve from that when a single cell is incapable of determining it's own surroundings? How does it know to adapt and evolve without intelligent thought? How does it know that hey, it is cold... need a thicker membrane or something.
They do not know.
Out of all the non-lethal random mutations or existing traits, some will be, on balance, beneficial. Organisms with more beneficial traits than competing organisms will tend to reproduce more than organisms that lack it.
That's it.
I have directly answered that question, and addressed his point.
Unless you think there is some other question I am avoiding? You will have to clear that up, if you want it answered.
You didn't go back and re-read it, did you?
lol "they"...I was asking you.
lol follows it up with providing his own bull answer to what "they" do not know.
Lazy, lazy, lazy.
Won't take personal responsibility, and has to accept my intellectual welfare. Here is your check, some of us just have to make everybody else do the work for them. I realize that the hard work of critical thinking is not something for everybody, so here goes.

In this piece, we have an author, Lee Dye, who has written an article. It is common for journalists to directly contact people who do the actual science and interview them.Scientists Catch Evolution in the Act
COLUMN By LEE DYE
....
This new work is an intriguing window into evolution, but like all good science, it also raises a number of questions. What's the triggering mechanism? What causes a daisy to make a "decision" about how to deploy, or eliminate, a specific gene?
"That's a great question," Soltis said. "Right now we are just beginning to understand that they do that. What are they responding to when it happens? I don't really know that we have an answer to that."
Stay with me Snakeboy, because this will blow your mind:
Interviews... require someone to ask questions.
That someone is usually.... wait for it... the journalist.
Assumed form.
Of course, in this case, we didn't even get to see the direct question. Commonly that is shown in source material as bolded text directly before a specific response. We have a paraphrase.Q: [Lee Dye]This new work is an intriguing window into evolution, but like all good science, it also raises a number of questions. What's the triggering mechanism? What causes a daisy to make a "decision" about how to deploy, or eliminate, a specific gene?
A: [Dr. Soltis] "That's a great question," Soltis said. "Right now we are just beginning to understand that they do that. What are they responding to when it happens? I don't really know that we have an answer to that."
The writer also decided to use quotation marks to set off the word "decide".
Why is THAT?
Normally this is to tell the reader that there is some other additional meaning.
The author does not elucidate.
I take it though, to mean that during the sexual selection process when two sex cells are forming a new zygote, there has to be some genetic process that winnows through things, or only allows one gene out of the ploidy to be expressed.
This molecular action is likely what the scientist is alluding to, and does not require any sort of conscious decision on the part of the organism.
"know" in this case and "decide" do not mean what you think they do.

"That's a great question," Soltis said. "Right now we are just beginning to understand that they do that. What are they responding to when it happens? I don't really know that we have an answer to that."
Scientists have no problem saying it. Atheist who thinks science validates his world view goes to great lengths to avoid saying it.
Man, you really, truly suck at this .
What is your point exactly?
This will require you to take the personal responsibility to string more than a few sentences together.
I will say "I don't know" when I don't know the answer. It is easy. Again, really not seeing where you are going with this.
In the meantime, I have a life outside the message board. I have a cool new roman empire game I really would like to get to.
Hopefully when I come back tomorrow, you will have made your point a bit more clearly. I won't be holding my breath. Lazy is as lazy does.
You didn't. When pressed you finally said "they" (scientists) don't know. Then you made up your own answer.
Only a fool knows everything.
Only an idiot would think this all came about by chance. The only question is who/what is responsible, that we simply don't know. Nobody does.
BIG BANG/evolution...hahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're sure acting the fool here.
What's the problem Blake? I just asked RG a question. I even provided him the answer from a biologist studying evolution.
Evolution is a fairy tale and only dummies like you don't see it.
amazing that some simpleton with no education knows more about science, biology, and evolution than 99% of all scientists and evolutionary biologists
You don't see any of the videos you have posted.
This was a horrible condescending fail, tbh.
And i bet you still don't get how it was either. Even though RG put it right in front of your face.
Like I've told you many times I can take you and all those scientists etc to school on far more topics than they can me. I've probably read my books in the last 5 years than you've read.
Don't be an idiot guy, ok?

the topic here is evolution you stupid old .
not about biology, that's for certain
As if you ever enter a thread respecting the topic, right?
This out of a thread about Bruce Jenner, where's the talk about the topic asshole?
Yeah, seriously man, you're not getting any unbiased bystanders to laugh any more. I guarantee they're thinking the same thing i am which is holy lol wtf smh all this cuck erotica he comes up with.
But at least you still get some lols from ms, rob and now the fat ol so there's that.![]()

When was the last time you actually checked in what the scientific world thought about the theory of evolution?
