Re: Denial doesn't refute reality

There is a well developed evolutionary account of human morality. Your apparent need to believe that the bible is the inerrant word of god will doubtless preclude you personally from accepting that evolutionary explanation. But that is no reason to say that no such thing exists.

Hox

We observe variation, not new body plans having been created.

Well..... You say that. But have you ever heard of Hox genes?

Here is a simple explanation

Re: Hox

Hox genes mean that a small gentic change can result in new "body plans" in exactly the way you asserted was impossible.

What this has to do with "information" will depend on how you define "information" but whatever definition you use the falsity of your assertion remains.

Re: Hox

Have you actually looked up hox genes and the associated experiments? Extra limbs, ribs further down the spine, additional wings, legs growing in place of antennae etc.

Very "now".
