Baggage.. autoimmune hemolytic anemia, hemophilia, von Willebrand's disease, immune-mediated thrombocytopenia, etc. etc. blah blah ad nauseum... Man made him, only God can save him. Rubbish! Nothing that a little natural selection won't fix up in a jiffie! Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.

the dr. writes: I give you, for example, the evolution of Chlorella vulgaris from a single-celled form to an eight-celled form, as a response to predation by Ochromonas vallescia. The benefit is that such forms are too big for O. vallescia to eat (will you admit that not being eaten is a benefit?) and of course such morphological changes would (and do) show up in the fossil record. Hey doc. Did you read this citation? I doubt you did. You're an evo not willing to spend the $32.00 just like before you couldn't look up a cited Science article. But I guess you think you have something here. Unfortunately, there is no mention of mutation in the abstract even the word evolution is not used. Selection is used though. In general this is a behavioural trait of the algae. Have you heard of Lamarck? There are such things a behavioural adaptations that aren't genetic. You evidently have the Lamrckian ability to waste a significant amount of your time debating with creos. However, you can train your kids and your disciples in that, but you cannot pass it on in your genes. I'm sorry, but you are going to have to provide evidence that this organization of algae cells was mutational.
the dr. writes: In short, you hope you have set us a challenge which we will not presently be able to meet however true the theory of evolution is. No, in short I hope to open your eyes to the fact that you call billions of fossil as evidence of "beneficial" mutational morphological change. Yet the real world evidence of "beneficial" mutational morphological evidence that would show up un the fossil record is vacuous.

AOkid writes: I'm sorry, but you are going to have to provide evidence that this organization of algae cells was mutational. Um, the paper outlines the fact that they DID mutate - in 100 generations, no less. That's your evidence. Scientists watched it happen in a lab and wrote it down so others could replicate the experiment and confirm it for themselves. That's science in action. You now have to propose what else might have caused the Chlorella Vulgaris to change its structure. Magic? Divine intervention?

I've asked for a citation from this paper that cites that it is a mutation. Certainly the abstract makes no claim of that. Algae and plants react to alot of enviromental situations that aren't mutational. Have you ever seen a plant react to light? That's not a genetic trait my friend. It wouldn't be unusual for "learned traits" of organization to be present that aren't mutational. A citation from the source is all I need.

A quick online search yielded this citation:

Have you ever seen a plant react to light? That's not a genetic trait my friend. Yes, it is. how do you think that phototaxis is mediated? It is through proteins produced from genes. There are a number of identified mutants, in both cyanobacteria and plants, which affect phototaxis. These can occur in photoreceptive proteins, morphogenetic growth factors, and signal transduction factors. How do you think plants react to light? TTFN, WK Edited by Wounded King, : No reason given.

Hey doc. Did you read this citation? I doubt you did. You're an evo not willing to spend the $32.00 just like before you couldn't look up a cited Science article. I am moderately curious as to what you can be talking about.
Unfortunately, there is no mention of mutation in the abstract even the word evolution is not used. They also did not mention that 2 + 2 = 4, or use the word "duh", because they were writing for an audience of scientists. They did not need, therefore, to explain that a heritable change is a mutation, or that a change from single-celled to multicelled under selective pressure is adaptive evolution. Their target audience did not need the bleeding obvious spelling out to them.
Selection is used though. In general this is a behavioural trait of the algae. Have you heard of Lamarck? There are such things a behavioural adaptations that aren't genetic. You evidently have the Lamrckian ability to waste a significant amount of your time debating with creos. However, you can train your kids and your disciples in that, but you cannot pass it on in your genes. I'm sorry, but you are going to have to provide evidence that this organization of algae cells was mutational. I have heard of Lamarck's discredited ideas. I have no idea why you mention them. This is clearly a heritable change:
These colonies retained the eight-celled form indefinitely in continuous culture and when plated onto agar. No, in short I hope to open your eyes to the fact that you call billions of fossil as evidence of "beneficial" mutational morphological change. Yet the real world evidence of "beneficial" mutational morphological evidence that would show up un the fossil record is vacuous. It is not "vacuous", (a word that you should blush to use) but there's not much of it, and as you know perfectly well, this is because most evolutionary experiments are done over a short period (compared to the billions of years in the fossil record) using tiny blobby things with little discernable morphology. Therefore you set us a challenge which you hoped we would fail however true the theory of evolution is. You don't dare say: "Show me the evidence", 'cos we've got lots of evidence. Now you're down to: "Show me the results of an experiment that I hope no-one's ever done". But oh look, they did. Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.
