evolution

If you're making a point, it's up to you to find evidence and show examples, you know 😛

I thought the idea was you just storm in, say evolution is wrong cause you don't believe it and storm out again?

well ive just got the idea with mutations....
evolution is nothing else but continous mutation of equal creatures
mutated creatures are usually hinded by the mutated body part....
so i wondered if this isnt a contradiction to the biological law "weaker die, stronger live on"... ive never said i evolution is wrong, ive got no right to say such... the idea was to storm in and wonder if someone could answer my question(s) and storm out again 😉 heh 😛

Not all genetic changes hinder a species.. if the change is beneficial and helps the creature better survive in their environment then they wont die off, in fact they will outlive the organisms of their species that don't have the mutation because the mutation has given them an advantage. If it hinders the species, then the organisms with the mutation will die off and the rest of the species will remain the same. You're assuming that all mutations are bad.

That seems to be the track record with creationist, right?

how easy that is 😊

Does Evolution get slowed down when the strongest don't breed?

I was thinking since humanity has become more civilized and frowns upon animalistic behaviorisms (due to morality, religion etc), this limits the whole 'may only the strong thrive' interaction between species. Now since weak/ strong etc are able to mingle freely I was just curious if that might affect the evolutionary process.

They banned evolution? 🤨

It's being taken out of textbooks because as of yet it's not proven, and is still a theory...and because it goes against creationism. Despite the fact that evolution has a lot of evidence and creationism has none. Quite ridiculous.

lol, you forget that southern states are usually highly religious.

Human evolution has more or less come to a standstill because of technology...instead of adapting to our environment we're adapting the environment to us 😬

that makes sence,
But we are evolving,
Look at hight
the average hight its growing from like 200 years ago.

That's not so much evolving, though, I don't think...that's just people getting taller 😛

Did you know that the ability to tolerate lactose is a mutation? 🤓

the ablility or the inablility?
because the mutation has become normal if its the ablility. Just because the majority of people CAN drink milk.

Originally the ability to drink cow's milk and not get sick was a mutation. Humans are the only species to drink the milk of another animal. Humans also are the only ones who continue to drink milk past childhood.

So, since I'm lactose intolerant, am apparently normal in some aspect...

But now its not abnormal for humans, therefore tis not a mutation anymore, and you are still abnormal 😛

Hee, if Alana's abnormal, that must make me normal 🤓

Its not a mutation anymore because most humans are tolernt of it. Therefore your abnormal. Just like Im allegic to grass.

Were both freaks 😱

It's a mutation that came to be normal 😖
