Re: UCD evidence
No. I'm talking about the history of UCD - history that goes back millions-billions of years.

That's right - driving a car doesn't require any knowledge of "nuts and bolts", nor any knowledge of how cars evolved.

Now stating that using animal models doesn't require accepting the theory of UCD is like stating that using animal models doesn't require examining their DNA
Why do you need to believe that all life shares a common ancestor to examine and compare the DNA of humans and other animals?

Re: UCD evidence
Dredgings:

First off: "Why do you need to believe that all life shares a common ancestor?"
I don't believe this, i accept it as demonstrated fact.
Secondly, "to examine and compare the DNA of humans and other animals?"
The measure of DNA separation can only be understood with UCD, otherwise you are shooting in the dark.

I didn't refute your comment coz - as usual - it was kinda irrelevant to the discussion.

I understand why you consider my pearls of wisdom and astonishing
displays of scientific knowledge to be "bs" - you are afraid to face reality and the truth.

That's wonderful, wrongsmith ... now all you have to do is explain how understanding the measure of DNA separation with UCD has provided a practical use in medicine.
In other words, which treatment of which disease has been created or improved by understanding the measure of DNA separation with UCD?
I'm beginning to see you as a Sea Lion troll.
That's wonderful too. Thank you for the compliment.

You're talking nonsense. Species are genetically and physiologically similar because they have a common ancestor. Dinosaurs and birds are genetically and physiologically similar because they have a common ancestor.

Why don't science deniers like creationists and flat-earthers produce any scientific breakthroughs? It seems that accepting the science HELPS.

That's the Number One excuse in the anti-science Prayer Book: "I didn't refute your comment because it was off-topic/irrelevant/previously-discussed, etc." If you can refute, refute - and let the admins decide whether you're off-topic.

Re: UCD evidence

Why? Because you're too lazy and intellectually challenged to research those facts yourself?
The scientific consensus, by near unanimous agreement, agrees the fact of the UCD is a linchpin in the evidence of evolution. That's why you hate it so much.
And since you're a cracker munchin' catholic with delusions of Genesis poisoning your brain, anything you say on the subject is, entertaining, but ultimately intellectually useless.

A perfect example of why creationism is a science stopper. All Dredge thinks one should do is just measure stuff. Explain it? OH NOOOOO, CAN'T DO THAT!!! Apply the scientific method? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!

Absolutely.
Thanks for coming around.
The point is that nuts and bolts are irrevocably important to the manufacture of vehicles. Understanding this importance leads to greater vehicle technology.
The point is that UCD is irrevocably important to those genetic similarities existing. Understanding this importance leads to greater biological/medicinal technology.

How is that relevant to the discussion?
The development of which treatment of which disease required the acceptance of "the fact of UCD"?
Are you saying that, if I get a Covid jab, it won't work bcoz I don't accept "the fact of UCD"?
