What's wrong with that as a topic? In fact, someone claimed adaptive mutations were not real on another thread. There are obviously plenty of others that say it is real.
Then why not bring that in and contextualise what you are saying.
I really don't see what your beef is. Does something have to be stated in an adversarial manner to qualify? I don't think it does.
I've never suggested that an adversarial manner was neccessary. All I am suggesting is that as it stands your OP doesn't merit its own thread. If all you want is for someone to explain adaptive mutations to you why not post to one of the already extant threads on the topic such as the
Disabling Bacterial Resistance thread.
An adversarial manner is not what I am asking for, what I am asking for is a substantive OP as a springboard for further discussion. At the moment this OP has very little material for discussion.
Don't you think that just reading and understanding a couple of papers, even just the first Hall paper you reference, and giving a brief summary and your interpretation would be less effort than trying to subvert the PNT promotions process?
Certainly, the subject of adaptive mutations related to Biological Evolution, right?
Merely fitting into the category does not mean it must be promoted to the forum.
