questions about the pictures... 1) where is the first pigeon's head? 2) is that red pigeon puffing it's chest out in some kind of mating ritual or something?
yeah that's it.

class in 1 minte and here i am writing a question...
This forum is going to be the death of me (or at least the reason i fail a class... well it's just guitar... not like my academic future rests on this class... anyway)...
so is it theoretically possible to link every species to every other species through interbreeding? like you say there are ring species make a sort of chain that connects various animals... but is it possible to extend that chain to encompass every animal on the planet? where would the lines be drawn on a chain like that?

Re: class in 1 minte and here i am writing a question...
What's the big deal? Its not like Ned himself is going to be the horribly deranged monkey-man.
so the darker side of me is wondering if there is some anti-creationist out there willing to force this kind of cross breeding, and then tout the result in front of creationist's nose as proof that man and monkey aren't different "kinds".
Hypothetical situation: pretend this did happen. Would it be moral to use it as any kind of evidence for anything?
