oh look - an observed gene duplication....

Dear Mr Tree Rings = Code guy,Please show me anywhere in the history of the internet where I claimed duplications have not been observed. Since you save all my writings this should be easy. Let me help you. Put all my posts in the same folder. Then do a FIND on duplication. Read them to see if I ever claim duplications haven’t been observed. No luck? Then please dismantle your strawman and return it to the closet.

Point 2: The presence of a duplicate 'fixes' problems caused bya mutated gene. Beneficial in anyone's book. Both legs gone, YEC information hawk goes tumbling down...

LOL! So where is the new information?!Keep trying, Dr Tree Rings.

M: His analogies for genetic bottlenecks (which were back assward by the way) used decks of cards "realizing" their diversity and poodles magically turning into St. Bernards

Nowhere do I make even hint at such an idea. Please stop parading around with this strawman, now in multiple threads. It’s simply not true, and I do not appreciate you misrepresenting and twisting my words. I said dog breeds are essentially man-made genetic bottlenecks, and serve as one way that enables us to SEE some of the diversity inherent in the dog kind. Instead of addressing this point you went off on various wild tangents, including this poodle transformation to St Bernard nonsense. It’s become apparent you are not interested in serious debate.
