Any practical use for Universal Common Ancestor?

That's because your OP was answered a thousand posts ago and you've been doing nothing but trolling ever since.

I thought we were talking amniotes to synapsids. Millions of years of microevolution and natural selection is how nature did the task. And that is a well known fact whether you care to acknowledge it or not.Go ahead. Put your fingers in your ears, shut your eyes and say 5 "godonits". To a stupid person it may appear to be the same. Knowledge is a wonderful thing and allows one to separate differing process producing differing results.To go from amniotes thru synapsid thru wolf to dog is this same process. Millions of years of microevolution and natural selection. Now if you want to go from dog to dachshund that is obviously, except to the stinted logic of the twisted religious mind, a different process. Microevolution by artificial selection. Quite different from the natural process. Reading comprehension really is a weakness for you isn't it. Must go with that IQ of 9 you are so proud of.You have been schooled many times in this one thread alone on exactly how macroevolution occurs.Denying this is intellectually dishonest. To be expected from your side, I suppose ... or ... it is religiously motivated denial since the facts of evolution and microevolution and genetics and natural selection all conspire to destroy your fantasy of a sky-daddy god who blows his nose at clay dolls?Snot covered Hummels. Ewww.

Well known fact? You are deluded. It's assumption, not fact. There is no evidence for such a thing.

The evidence, M'Lady, is all over the internet. You can't miss it ... except on purpose.

Oh nonsense.

Says the person who believes that the Mueller Report concludes that there was zero collusion and completely exonerates Trump of obstruction of justice.

Uh huh, well that was the original statement of the conclusion. Later of course they managed to invent some other stuff based on a lot of mere verbiage, no actual evidence.Anyway, if synapsids DID evolve from amniotes it would have to be by microevolution which is not evolution but means they are really the same species. But it's evolution that is claimed, and that's nonsense. I looked up some images but my eyes don't work well enough to identify the relationship between the two creatures.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

This thread is destabilizing ... time to stick a fork in it.

The time to stick a fork in it was the first time Dredge invoked the supernatural and turned it into a religious proselytizing thread.

Heh, heh ... if you suggested that the OP was bogus, I would tend to agree. Some of us have seen this from Dredge before, though outright trolling with the alien meme turned it into even more of a circus at an early point. Edited by edge, : No reason given.

... and it's fun.

Ah, I see you've changed your tune - you've gone from claiming to "know how macroevolution occurs" to "I know what macroevolution is".Moving the goalposts isn't going to help you - if you really did "know how macroevolution occurs", you would know how to breed a winged insect from a non-winged insect. But you haven't got a clue about how to perform such a feat, because you only know how MICROevolution (genetic variations within a extant population) occurs.Anyhow, if you want to be further humiliated re this subject, go to the new thread in "Biological Evolution": EvC Forum: A test for claimed knowledge of how macroevolution occursEdited by Dredge, : No reason given.Edited by Dredge, : No reason given.Edited by Dredge, : No reason given.

I can feel the pain and anguish of your confusion from here. Perhaps it will assist you to go to the new thread on this matter: EvC Forum: A test for claimed knowledge of how macroevolution occurs

Nope, I know what macroevolution is AND how it occurs. Your problem is a complete lack of knowledge about evolution, microevolution, and macroevolution. How humiliating. Since I know what macroevolution is and how it works and since I know what evolution is and how it works, and you do not, you will have to up your gave if you want to see me humiliated.Repeat after me: Breeding is not a surrogate for evolution.Breeding is not a surrogate for evolution.Breeding is not a surrogate for evolution.Breeding is not a surrogate for evolution.Breeding is not a surrogate for evolution.
