Re: Cult Of The Darwinoids:Topic Synopsis
Charles Darwin's contribution to science is vastly overrated.
And yet, you seem totally fascinated by him, you yammer on and on about him, you are obsessed and have DARWIN tattooed across your forehead with curlicues.
All of science recognizes that Charles Darwin, quite eloquently, described a process that explained how new species formed through descent with modification and for the next 160 years many millions of scientists have been scouring the planet, looking inside all the animals and looking inside the rocks, looking inside all the genomes and all the evidence supports the modern Theory of Evolution.
It's funny how much you use Darwin's name, considering what a minor figure you say he is.

For starters, fossils can't tell us what process produced the changes in life-forms evident in the fossil record
That's why we don't use fossils for that, instead we use genetics and developmental biology to tell us about the processes that produced those changes. The fossils show us that life changed over time. That's the cool thing about science, it guides us in our choices of which questions specific evidence answers.
That's a fact you seem to have trouble accepting.

There are zero genetic examples of novel body plans and organs evolving.
So? What's your point? Can you even describe a novel body plan or organ?

Please explain how can you claim to understand how genetics produced novel body plans and organs when no one has ever observed such changes?
I have never made such a claim, so what's your point?
However we can and do observe descent with modification and it has been well documented for several centuries. Every single phylum has been, and is being studied by numerous researchers looking at every clade level and right on down to species level specialists, analyzing genes and biomolecules, development and life histories, selective forces, and fossil lineages and on a planet with 8 billion people that's a shitload of scientists studying every aspect of life. And all those different science's documented observations support descent with modification and we don't see any of those scientists pointing out how any living organisms are actually violating any of the rules governing how physics and chemistry works on planet earth.
The thing you guys always ignore is that every scientist wants to make a memorable discovery and no one would pass up the opportunity to be celebrated as the exposer of a massive fraud scheme that has been going on for 160 years and involving millions of scientists. And then there's all the physicists and chemists and geologists, etc. on planet Earth, that are also not pointing out discrepancies in the Theory of Evolution either.
I would still like to know, can you even describe a novel body plan or organ?

Lame. So when scientists discuss the evolution of novel body plans and organs, you've got idea what they're talking about?
No, when you talk about novel body plans and organs I don't know what you mean and you don't seem to ever have an answer. The only people I ever hear talking about novel body plans and organs are young earth creationists like you.

There would be literally thousands of scientific papers and articles published that discuss the evolution of novel body plans and organs.
And I note that YOU still haven't described a single novel body plan or organ. Novel implies something completely new and unlike anything prior.
Evolutionary processes do not produce novel body plans or organs in a single generation (which is the strawman you are implying), that's something that an ignoramus creationist would believe.

It turns out I was wrong about MrID's main problem. I thought thinking and speaking English was a big issue, but it turns out he's just as ignorant, nutty and delusional in real (video) life as he seems in text.
