.....people pretend the problems in the government
schools all have to do with the fact that .1% of the
population has a "thing" about creation science
(completely ignoring the fact that evolution is barely
touched on in any HS class outside of AP Biology.

We're quite good at taking properly prepared students
and turning them into Nobel Prize Winners. Underline
"properly prepared." If the children aren't properly
prepared, there's not much that can be done with them.

Bull****, the deficiencys can be fixed with any
brats that will benefit from a university education.

Interesting theory,

Then feel free to do so.

OK. Take an aquarium and pour some white sand into it. Let it
settle. Then take some black sand and pour it into the aquarium
and let it settle. Can you think of anyway that the black sand
will end up on the bottom? Bim-batta-boom, you got evolution.

Real evolution is nothing like that.

Once you know the order in which changes
happen, the geologic record tells the story.

Irrelevant to that silly stuff about the two types of sand.

Go to the Grand Canyon and you can read back 6,000,000
years. Remember. the layer below came first and then the
one above it. You may wish to look up carbon-14 dating as
well but that will only take you back 40,000 years.

Evolution is called a "theory" because you can't do it in a lab

Wrong.

Would you like to expand on that?

Nothing to 'expand' on, that isnt why its called a theory.

There are plenty of theorys that can be proven in a lab.

Even evolution can, most obviously with pesticide
resistance with insects and antibiotic resistance.

but it is the only explanation this side of booga-booga
that explains what we see in the world.

Don't know a lot about science do you?

We'll see...

Oh, I feel a very long pause coming on.

Your problem.

So your saying adaptation proves evolution?

Nope, that the DNA is clearly what drives what gets produced
and that its completely trivial to see how that sort of selection
done in the lab changes the DNA involved.

This should be good.

Or pathetic in your case.

Citation please.

And decent text on antibiotic resistence.

As long as they (whatever can enter-breed), your talking the same species.

Pity that we can see that say gorillas and humans have virtually the
same DNA, so they must have evolved from a common ancestor.

Just because some staphylococcus aureus develop a resistance to antibiotics,
it doesn't mean that they aren't staphylococcus aureus any more.

But it does mean that you can see that the DNA of
the resistant strains is different to the ones which arent.

You did go to school didn't you?

Never ever could bull**** its way out of a wet paper bag.

All you can prove is that organisms can adapt to their environment.

Wrong when that can be shown to change the DNA.

Oh, you believe the theories of Dr. Lysenko.

Nope.

Good luck with that one.

Pathetic.

Adaptation hasn't been seen to create new species in the lab.

Neither has your geological record.

Again, that is why they call it a THEORY, because it best fits the given evidence.

Just as true of plenty of laws.

We can however see that humans have evolved from the higher apes by comparing their DNA etc.

You left out the prokaryotes. You are undoubtedly related to them as well.

Never ever could bull**** its way out of a wet paper bag.

"There's an old saying in Tennessee ‹ I know it's in Texas, probably
in Tennessee ‹ that says, fool me once, shame on ‹ shame on you. Fool
me ‹ you can't get fooled again." Bwahahahaha. What a maroon. Bwahahaha
