Re: Typical?
Everytime we see something that does not fit the hierarchy, evolutionists just change and adjust their narrative and stories.
Can you provide examples of something that does not fit in the hierarchy?
Do you understand that scientists have to report what they actually observe, even if it modifies what we thought from prior observations? That is the nature of science.
We have mammals that fly, mammals that swim in deep oceans, mammals with beaks.
And interestingly, we do not have a single mammal with bird feathers, or a single mammal with fish gills, and I have no idea what mammal you think has a bird beak. If you think that Platypuses have bird beaks, then you need to do a bit more study of Platypus physiology and behavior.
Powered flight has only evolved 3 times in vertebrates, Pterosaurs, Bats and Birds all adapted forelimbs into wings, by modifying them differently to function as wings. Powered flight only evolved once in all the invertebrates, in the Insects, and they were masters of the air many millions of years before any of the flying vertebrates.
The countless variety in species is evidence for design, if anything.
The only designed things we know about are created by humans, in what ways does the countless variety in species resemble anything created by humans? I don't know whether you are talking about the countless variety within a species or when comparing variety between species, but so far, you haven't demonstrated how variety is evidence for design.

Re: Typical?
Making up arbitrary rules, to defend your precious theory is just pathetic!
What rules? These are observations of the patterns of descent that are documented for everyone to see.
So you think evolution must be true, because no mammal has feathers?
No, I think the evidence supports the observation that birds have not inherited any mammal features from their ancestors, and that mammals have not inherited any bird features from their ancestors since their last common ancestor.
And we don't have a single organism with a jet engine.
And you would be incorrect. Dragonfly nymphs are well known to be able to expel water from their abdomens with such force as to be jet propelled, so that would be somewhere in the neighborhood of 5,000 species that have jet engines.
You want to bore me with lists of what we don't have? To prove what exactly?
You asked questions and we're answering with the actual answers but you're too bored notice. Why are you here if you don't want a discussion? If you want to prove something, go for it, but we are not trying to prove anything, we are just providing supporting evidence, which is what science does.

Re: Typical?
Why isn't a nested hierarchy a prediction of the theory?
This is so simple. A nested hierarchy is just a family tree, parents, kids, grandkids, great-grandkids... Sequential reproductive events, that's all evolution is, descent with modification and with every line of descent isolated from each other once separated, in other words, at its simplest, my kids will never be my sister's kids.

Once the Creator is thrown out, all that's left is superstition.
Your creator is superstitious fiction, so not worth the bother to throw out. ALL the evidence supports the Theory of Evolution.

Re: Typical?
So God could create the universe out of nothing, create stars and planets and create life on earth ... but God could not create a nested hierarchy?
No, because it's fiction.

Re: Typical?
There are single cell yeast species that reproduce both asexually (i.e. cell division) and sexually.
My favorite sexual/asexual organisms are Hydras. They're multicellular but form buds that become new individual but they also produce gametes.

These things are important, Tany. If I'm going to eat these ...
I am addicted to the flavor and smooth texture of chocolate, but I don't get enough of those sensations from M&Ms. I only eat chocolate once or twice a year. The best I ever had was hot pepper chocolate bars that we got in Ecuador.
