Re: A Tedious Pattern -- indeed it is
Completely off topic, Robin mentioned my "execrable" science and a book he is reading about evolution, and that inspired me to suggest, off topic of course, that he investigate the ToE in a particular manner.
I don't remember this. What "particular manner"?

Re: A Tedious Pattern -- indeed it is
trying to track down the facts behind it.
Well, it's complicated. In order to understand evolution beyond the basics, you have to understand genetics. Genetics to me is very complicated.

Re: A Tedious Pattern -- indeed it is
OK, Faith, I'm off-topic here as usual. But what I find so convincing is how the DNA analysis of living beings backs up what was said long ago about the evolutionary family tree. They said that before there ever was DNA analysis.

Re: A Tedious Pattern -- indeed it is
I don't see that it backs it up.
I meant like the DNA similarity between humans and apes, for example.

Re: A Tedious Pattern -- indeed it is
Humm . . .
Maybe we should have a topic where I give my (very limited) understanding of TOE and its proofs, and then you tell me what you think is wrong with what I said.

Go for it.
A great debate?

Re: not so great debate perhaps
But how about a Mediocre Discussion instead of great debate, in which both parties of execrable science (or is yours less so?) aim to understand things better and perhaps invite in expert testimony from time to time? I mean I really would like to understand the genetics better but not the way it usually goes here.
Good idea. I'll compose a PNT.

Re: not so great debate perhaps
Thanks. My idea is to use plain language.
