extended evolutionary synthesis (EES)

Some questions a creationist might ask.Is EES divorcing itself from formal reductionism?Is there anything new under the sun here? How does EES affect basic biochemical research defining evolution, is comparative genomics improved? Remember evolution is also Paleontology, how do you take a whole biome approach in Paleontology? I suppose a updated version of ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny is in order because Haeckel’s fabrication is a bit worn out.Noting that observable changes in genotype are beyond empirical observation, genotype changes can be rejected out of hand. So that leaves phenotype variance as related to the whole biome approach Wait a minute that would be adaptation by natural selection.

I see this "whole biome approach" taking shape and becoming more and more integrated into our study of organism and their evolution. So an extended synthesis should simply be an attempt to help focus our efforts in evolutionary biology into a more inclusive, extensive understanding of how and why organisms change. I think the WHY issue is at the heart of the need for an EES. Natural selection working on random mutations, while it may be accurate enough, is simply too basic and unsatisfying. I think we can provide better answers for WHY organisms evolve.

I think if should be at the heart of EES. Just my opinion.

We can empirically determine when mutations occur and where.
We have examples of a child's genome being compared to the parents' genomes. We have measurements of mutations caused by polymerases in PCR. There are tons of empirical measurements of mutagenesis.

My mistake I wrongly associated changes in genotype with a broader definition of evolution. Your description is more accurate.

What does that even mean? Observable changes are beyond empirical observation?

I do say that my statement is incorrect my apology.
