  #1 protein functional redundancy comparing the sequences of amino acids in ubiquitous proteins confirms the relationship between all living things..

  #2 dna functional redundancy comparison of the dna that codes for the amino acids of ubiquitous proteins predicts the tree of life with an astonishing degree of accuracy..

  #3 ervs endogenous retroviruses that infected our ancestors are found in the same place of the genome of our closest primate cousins..

  I agree. I have endless patience with genuine objections. Sadly they are very rare.

  Perry and ND have no interest in answers to their questions, just as we hid from things that challenged our worldview when we were JWs.

  Evolution is a Fact #1 - Protein Functional Redundancy

  i intend for this to be one of a series of bite-sized ops on the evidence for evolution.. introduction to dna genes are sequences of dna made up of words (codons) each of which are three letters (bases) long.

  there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet (acg&t) each word or codon is the recipe for one amino acid.

  there are 20 different amino acids in living organisms.

  you are NOT helping any JWs

  My Inbox suggests otherwise.

  You are leaving because I publicly challenged you to a sensible conversation on a topic of your choosing..

  So in response to my public offer to engage in a serious debate with ND on any question on evolution of her/hsi choosing I received the following reply.

  Here is my PM to ND....

  ---

  Hi ND - I want to know if you are ever going to be genuinely interested in holding an intelligent conversation about evolution. Do you have any real questions you would actually like an answer to? So far your behaviour on the forum has been a disgrace. I'm sure most creationists are too embarrassed to join in. You are acting like a childish troll and shutting down real discussion. How about you propose a specific genuine objection to evolution in your own words and set me the challenge of answering it. Then it will be my turn to do the same. Do you have the maturity to rise to the challenge or will you just carry on behaving like a self-indulgent teenager? Over to you

  ND - I have sent you a genuine and sincere challenge by PM. I hope you have the maturity to accept it.

  Have you read the OP?

  She/he has clearly never read a single word of the evidence in her/his entire life. She/he saw the word evolution and began typing the usual creationist lies and canards.

  In fact she/he is typing stuff that most creationists would be embarrassed to be associated with.

  Dumble F*ck is a troll.

  Dumble F*ck - For the fourth time...

  Please tell me which books that present the scientific evidence for biological evolution you have studied?

  I predict the answer is none and that you will evade this question - So far this prediction has a 100% success rate.

  The fossil record demonstrates a complete lack of evidence for evolution - Dumble F*ck

  The evidence for evolution from paleontology is astonishing. There is an embarrassment of riches. Since you have never read a single science book in your life you have no knowledge of this evidence.

  If you cared to educate yourself you might buy a copy of "Evolution - What the Fossils Say and why it Matters" by Donald Prothero. In fact there has been so many new discoveries in recent years he has had to write a new volume.

  How can anybody know so little about something and yet say so much so arrogantly?

  so as of july 2nd my wife delivered by c-section our little one pound, three ounce daughter izabella.

  it was a very scary night that started with a decel and turned into multiple decels that greatly concerned the doctors.

  by early morning they felt the need to take her for her safety.

  Congratulations Darknight757. I really hope everything goes well and she continues to thrive. The support that medical science can offer premature babies is amazing. Please keep us updated.
