Re: respect

Faith,

but that the inevitable ultimate tendency of all the processes involved to reduce genetic diversity is not recognized.

Your argument was destroyed by the fact that diversity is observed to increase in spite of initial conditions being reduced to a single individual. Hall 1982.

Remember? The evolution of a lactose cleaving enzyme, expression control system, & associated permease for the lactose molecule. Ring any bells?

You are not going to be allowed to pretend this has not been demonstrated.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't

Re: respect

Faith,

The existence of a mechanism that appears to reverse the process doesn't prove that the process doesn't ultimately go in the direction I'm describing.

The mechanism actually reverses the process. There are many such studies. Do you have any such cites that show that this "process" won't ultimately increase diversity?

Re: respect

Faith,

Nope, I'm merely predicting.

Your prediction is contradicted by evidence.
