Re: problems with detecting design
AZPaul3:
That you don't see these facts
Dredge:
They're not facts, con-man ... they're theories. Don't you ever get tired ???? of telling lies?

It isn't actually a theory. Here is the definition for "theory" from the American Heritage Dictionary:
Theory
A set of statements or principles devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena, especially one that has been repeatedly tested or is widely accepted and can be used to make predictions about natural phenomena.
AZPaul3 tries to include the concept of "universal common descent" with the concept of "evolution". There are no experimental tests that verify UCD. All evolutionary experiments contradict the notion of UCD.

AZPaul3 may have had a lifetime filled with the inability of dealing with reality, but that only makes him experienced with that inability. Spending a lifetime being a psychiatric patient doesn't make a person any more knowledgeable about psychiatry than being a lifetime fan of baseball makes you a homerun hitter.

The Theory of Evolution, unsurprisingly, is a scientific theory and a scientific theory explains a set of facts. All of them, no exceptions. Exceptions disprove a theory.
The Theory is descent with modification.
The mechanism for modification is mutation followed by natural selection. The mechanism for descent is reproduction.
Do you accept these principles?
Common ancestry is a necessary conclusion from the above statements, it's NOT the theory.
To accept the theory but not the inevitable conclusion would be irrational, but since when has that been a problem for religionists?

Re: problems with detecting design
The facts of evolution are not hidden in a secret holy room in some church. They are available at museums and schools world wide for all to see and learn.
Religion lies about its gods and it's myths of creation and cannot produce any evidence for their fantasies.
Evolution has the facts and the evidence for all to see. All you need do, Dredge, is go see for yourself. I know schools, museums, knowledge in general scares you, Cracker muncher, but you can get through it. The knowledge is there for you. Let the scales fall from your eyes so you can see.

The "Theory of Evolution" is not the "Theory of Universal Common Descent". They are two different things. So far, you and biologists have failed to explain why drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail. You and biologists have gotten nowhere near verifying that the "Theory of Universal Common Descent" is a reasonable and rational theory. The fact is, all biological evolutionary experiments contradict this idea.

Then it should be easy for you to explain how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail. You won't because you don't have the ability to understand the evidence.

That's AZPaul3's explanation of how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail. He learned this from biologists. Their explanation is no better.

You and biologists have gotten nowhere near verifying that the "Theory of Universal Common Descent" is a reasonable and rational theory. The fact is, all biological evolutionary experiments contradict this idea.
The fact that animals reproduce and have descendants provides the conclusion of UCD. It's logic and observation. But if you need experimentation why don't you map your family tree? See if you can find an error in it.
If you accept the ToE you MUST accept UCD* it's as simple as that. Otherwise you need to show how non-related animals can sit inside the same family tree. Go ahead, show us.
*there are some interesting exceptions at the single cell stage. There may be horizontal gene transfer in the very early stages of life.
Anyway here's a formal test of UCD for you to ignore and lie about not existing.

Re: problems with detecting design
You need to stop lying and making a fool of yourself by claiming that the theory of evolution is a fact. Your psychiatrist has on numerous occasions explained to you that it is your insecurity that compels you to tell that lie ... yet you keep doing it. You seem to be a slow learner.

ffs, get it into your dense skull, a scientific theory is a far higher level of knowledge than a simple fact. A theory explains facts, all of them.
But for your simple mind, the ToE IS a fact in the sense of common usage. It is in fact, a fact of life.
Enough trolling.

You and biologists' inability to understand the physics and mathematics of descent with modification and adaptation does not make UCA or UCD or whatever you want to call it necessary or possible. Biologists' experiments show that UCD is not possible simply because of the huge populations required and rapid recovery rates necessary for descent with modification and adaptation to work. And these findings are when only one selection condition is used at a time in these experiments. The populations required are exponentially larger when two or more selection conditions are applied to a population for descent with modification and adaptation to operate. That is why 3-drug therapy (3 selection conditions) works for the treatment of HIV. You still have not learned how biological evolution works and neither have biologists.

Tangle will now explain to us how drug resistance evolves and why cancer treatments fail. Nope, he won't and neither will biologists.
