Coffee House Musings on Creationist Topic Proposals

Please provide one example of how ToE (the theory that all life on earth evolved from a common ancestor via the mechanism of natural selection acting on mutations) has proven useful in treating disease.

That's bullshit - none of the posters here refuted my argument back then. All those snakes did was ignore that I was arguing that ToE was useless and instead pretended that I was arguing that "principles of evolution" (such as selection acting on beneficial mutations) were useless. I never argued that "principles of evolution" were useless, because they're not.Those posters deliberately and dishonestly twisted my words and misrepresented my position - in other words, that bowl of spiders were liars. You were probably one of them.

I agree.Do you know the difference between "evolution" and ToE?

Evolution is a change in allele frequency within a population.As for the theory of evolution, there are different versions. I will use the version I've been using for the last two months or so - the theory that all life on earth evolved from a common ancestor via the mechanism of natural selection acting on mutations.

Please explain how ToE (the theory that all life on earth evolved from a common ancestor via the mechanism of natural selection acting on mutations)⁶ has contributed to the development of flu vaccines.

The point is, no one needs Darwinist folklore to develop vaccines or treat disease ... the part that says all life on earth shares a common ancestor.

No kidding. The fact remains that no one can prove that they know what process produced the changes evident in the fossil record, and therefore no one can claim to know how evolution works.

Point is, no one needs to accept the theory that all life on earth shares a common ancestor to develop vaccines.Hypothetically, a YEC scientist could develop vaccines just as competently as a Darwinist scientist. A medical scientist doesn't need to accept Darwinist folklore (universal common ancestry) to understand and utilize the principles and mechanisms of evolution . You can't prove it, so please stop talking delusional crap. Your discombobulation is embarrassing.I'm finding it increasing difficult to believe your claim that you're a fair-dinkum scientist. What sort of scientist claims to "know" something that he can't prove that he knows?

It's not a footnote reference. I don't how it got there. I used my own words.Maybe there's a glitch in the system.

Sorry, I don't understand any of that.

I choose to blame you for that mistake.

Good question. I have no idea how that little number got there ... it wasn't a quote ... not that it matters. My fragile, eggshell mind.

It's not a lie ... it's an inescapable fact you can't prove that know what process produced the changes evident in the fossil record. Sorry, but I'm not interested in playing your diversionary games. It seems clear to me that you refuse to face up to the truth of my argument, which is this: You can't prove that you know what process produced the changes evident in the fossil record, therefore you can't claim to know how evolution works.Is there a weakness in your character that is preventing you from accepting this obvious fact?
Perhaps you are too proud to be corrected and humbled by the simple logic of the village idiot.
Or perhaps your atheist faith cannot tolerate the fact that - contrary to the delusion you've been living under for so long - your Darwinist doctrine cannot be proven to be factual.​

Knowledge of the mechanisms of evolution has certainly contributed to the treatment of disease, but the theory that all life on earth shares a common ancestor has contributed nothing at all to the treatment of disease. It's a useless theory.I invite you to prove me wrong by providing an example of how the theory that all life on earth shares a common ancestor has contribted to the treatment of disease.
