Again, I Ask, Where Is The Evidence For Natural Selection By Random Chance?

@JimboSaturn

I actually find it to be a nice change from politics. 😅

@JimboSaturn
Belief follows Truth, not the other way around.

@GodSpeed63 Then why do you feel the need to make the same post if you are so sure? Methinks thou doth protest too much.

@GodSpeed63 I agree but what does that have to do with my question?

@JimboSaturn
You guys keep asking for evidence that God lives and we keep giving it to you but you fail to show us any evidence of what you believe is true. Where's that evidence? Methinks thou art too scared.

@GodSpeed63 We keep supplying you evidence for evolution but you ignore it. Yes if you claim there is a God, than you have to prove your case because you made the assertion. I haven't seen any posts asking people to prove God. Why does it upset you so much that most people believe in evolution?

@JimboSaturn
Where?

@GodSpeed63 As I just said, reread the last 50 posts you made on the same subject.

@GodSpeed63 seriously? Are you asking for more evidence so you can ignore it and then run away from it?
Do you understand that your behaviour has become a standing joke?

@newjaninev2
Since you haven't shown any the last time, yes.

@GodSpeed63
Oh gosh, for some unknown reason you must have missed it.

Never mind, I'm happy to post it again... and again... and again.

In fact, thank you for the opportunity to once again demonstrate the lack of even basic comprehension that underpins claims around magical entities.

All apes except humans have 24 pairs of chromosomes. We humans are the only apes to have 23 pairs.

Evolution made a testable prediction; That somewhere in the human genome we should find evidence of chromosomal fusion. In other words, we should be able to find a fused human chromosome with the remnants of extra telomeres and centromeres.

Since the loss of all the genes in a chromosome would have been fatal to any species, scientists reasoned that if the Theory of Evolution was correct about common ancestry, one of two things must have occurred. Either two chromosomes had fused in humans’ evolutionary past, or chromosomes had split in the other apes. Using 'Occam's Razor’, which states that among competing hypotheses, the simplest explanation is most likely the correct one, the most likely event was chromosome fusion in humans’ ancestors.

Normal chromosomes have a centromere (a chromosomal locus that ensures delivery of one copy of each chromosome to each daughter at cell division.) and ends that are capped with telomeres… think of them as the aglets on shoelaces). It was postulated that if two chromosomes had fused, evidence for such an event would be found in a chromosome with two centromeres and telomeres where they did not belong. That is exactly what was found in human chromosome 2 (chromosomes are numbered by length).

It was subsequently established that the equivalent chimpanzee chromosomes contain the same genes as human chromosome 2 and if placed end to end the positions of those genes match those of the human chromosome. The same chromosomes in all other ape species also line up in the same way…. the fusion event has been confirmed.

Recently we have obtained largely complete genomes of two other human species, those of Neanderthal and Denisovans. We see the same chromosome fusion in their genomes as well, which tells us that the fusion event took place in a common ancestor.

The greatest test of any scientific Theory is in its usefulness as a predictive tool. In this case, as in many others, the Theory of Evolution has delivered.

@GodSpeed63 Or perhaps you'd prefer:

Very small marine organisms, such as plankton, are ideal for showing gradual evolutionary change. There are many billions of them, many with hard parts, and they conveniently fall directly to the seafloor after death, piling up in a continuous sequence of layers. Sampling the layers in order is easy: you can thrust a long tube into the seafloor, pull up a columnar core sample, and read it from bottom to top (our research institutes here in New Zealand do this routinely).

Come to New Zealand and you can see a two-hundred-meter-long core taken from the ocean floor near New Zealand, presenting an unbroken history of the evolution of the marine foraminiferan Globorotalia conoidea over an eight-million-year period.

Or you might prefer the eighteen-meter-long core extracted near Antarctica, representing two million years of sediments, showing us, again in an unbroken history, the evolution of the radiolarian Pseudocubus vema

Or perhaps you’d like to see my personal favourite… a core sample that shows an ancestral plankton species Eucyrtidium calvertense dividing into two descendants from a common ancestor over 3.5 million years. The new species is Eucyrtidium matuyamai

@GodSpeed63 I'm looking forward to your analysis of the evidence I have presented thus far.

In the meantime, I'll post some more evidence so that you can offer your analyses, or ignore it, or run away from it.

Which will it be, I wonder...

@newjaninev2
My analysis is that your displaying a lot of hearsay without actual evidence to show for.

@GodSpeed63
😂😂😂😂

and there, ladies and gentlemen, is all you need... draw your own conclusions
