First, we had listed over a dozen, with more coming up in conversation. My point wasn’t that it was this or that number, but that it is much more than just one or two cases, and that you know that.
It isn't MUCH more, and even if it were fifty that is a paltry number for the job asked of it, and the kinds of mutations you are talking about are mostly just weird, not the kind of stuff that could put together such marvelous unities as life exhibits.
Yeah, I know the probabilities and they are simply astronomically unconvincing. I really don't know how they convince you.
And if the mutation that brought about the tail is simply the recurrence of a formerly expressed allele, in my book that's not a mutation, but I understand that in your book it must be that because your book is the book of the ToE. Yes you are right that in my book the tail IS a mutation, and not the recurrence of a formerly expressed allele, just a bizarre anomaly (and they aren't much in the way of tails anyway, just a flaccid rope of skin. But why is that such a big deal? YOu act as if we deny mutations. We don't. We deny that they are capable of bringing about the design and diversity of life we see around us.
And as usual, in your post, as per the ToE, the facts are SO scanty and all the rest is hypothetical, not evidence of any sort. I understand that one is often driven to that, but then don't claim the ToE rests on firm foundations.
