My position is very clear and consistent: all mutation, no matter how small, how big, occur randomly. There is no causal relationship between them. NS has nothing to do with occurance, it only works after they occur.
​
But you said:
It is you, Darwinist who claims mutation occur by natural selection
​
The first statement you made above is correct and no biolgists makes the claim that you say they do in the second quote.
​
I asked you where you got the idea that anyone did make such a statement. Can you explain that?

T i t l e!
Could you note the title of your post?
​
It can be useful for others browsing threads to have meaningful titles. Thanks.

Re: On-line Darwinism Documentary
Do you mean a video presentation? Not that I am aware of.
​
I don't think that is the best way to present something of that sort. If there are any I would think they would be like the PBS documentary of a year or two ago. Very, very light and not very informative.

Probabilities
On to the randomness thing, the chances of a human evolving have been calculated to be 1 in 10 to the two millionth power! Yes, you heard right, that is a huge number
​
If you wish to make such an assertion you MUST by formum guidelines suport it when asked.
​
I am asking now. Please show your work: the input assumption and the calculations on those to arrive at the answer. I suggest that these kind of probability calculations are descret enough that you should do it in a proposed new topic. Do it today and I'll hurry approval before I go away.
​
Hint: I guarentee you that you have been feed mathematical junk for breakfast. Someone is deliberately trying to mislead you.

Some work on our part now?
Before anyone puts any further effort into discussions with you I think you should apologize for and retract you probability calculations which you are unable to support. An unsupported assertion is not worth the disk space that it takes to store it.
​
Meanwhile you need to improve you understanding of what evolutionary biology is all about. Why do you think a transitional would be an "incomplete species "? What would a transitional have to look like and why to you think evolutionary theory suggests that?
​
Have you yet or will you put any effort into this at all? Have you searched this site for "transitional" (we have had a lot of discussion about them already)
see: The Definition and Description of a "Transitional"
Would it be possible to recognize a transitional change at the time it was happening?
and others
​
If you continue to post at this level you will lose any opportunity to continue to post in the science side forums. Make your posts with more care.
