Starting points
And yet, in our vast world of animal kingdoms, we have so much trouble pointing out some of these starting points for new emerging body parts, which could be advantageous and lead to a newer complex system of bodily functioning.
Its possible that organisms with simple photoreceptor proteins could eventually lead to a complex body function with the ability to see various wavelenths as different colours and could lead further to a method of focus for various distances. I am willing to bet that such a complex system would be advantageous to some species.

Is there a topic anywhere?
So start showing some examples. This is what I have been asking for all along.
Examples of what exactly? So far you have asked for examples of mutations in the past, mutations in the present, and mutations upcoming in the future. Some on their own, some in series. Some producing random effects, some others at your discretion, and still others producing large (and small) changes. Mutations that could happen, did happen, and could never happen. You wish to be taken seriously? How about debating in good faith?
Now Mr. Gish, its apparent, to me at least, that you don't really want to talk about anything in particular regarding evolution. This is Coffee House so I suppose that you can run off at the mouth and it really doesn't matter. I applaud your efforts to restrict yourself to just one dishonest debate tactic, one less and you could be though of as simply misinformed.

I love this thread already-because I can't be accused of being off topic here, now can I?
Nope, you can pretty much say anything you want. Odd how this all started because you felt you don't get to say your side, no martyrdom for you!

Re: Is there a topic anywhere?
Ha, that's what I have said?
Yes, If I provide quotes will you start debating in good faith?
Do you want a response?
Will it be productive and lead to something resembling an adult discussion?
Ok. No its not!
I didn't think so.

a few examples of what you prefer to call a "neutral" mutation that you see in modern creatures that you feel is suitable as a building block for a completely new system.
I know your side doesn't have much to work with, in terms of true empirical evidence-I am simply highlighting that fact.
So you plan to highlight the lack of empirical evidence by asking Subbie to make something up? How can anyone provide a modern example that will sometime in the future be a new system?
Keep it up.
