And that's your proof for UCD?
If you’d read my posts you’d know it wasn’t - and you’d know the point I was making.

What facts are those?
The ones I mentioned earlier in the post:
…that it (sickle cell) is advantageous in malarial regions, and that that advantage is constant enough to spread the allele there.
quote:
Your own example, the Malaria gene shows that it is not advantageous in every environmenT
The point is the stability of the environment where it is found. I guess you think we shouldn’t worry about malaria because any time soon it’s bound to just vanish.

… but you have to pretend that there are some alleles that remain advantageous in any environment.
No, I really don’t have to pretend anything of the sort. And I don’t.
quote:
The point is the experiment is performed in a constant environment, something which doesn't exist in reality for humans. You are so confused, you think it does because the Malaria allele appears. Why aren't they resistant to Tuberculosis, or Small Pox, or Plague, or of a number of other infectious diseases?
No, I don’t think that the environment remains constant. I just accept the facts that it is constant enough for sickle cell to exist and even be common in quite large areas.

Not at all, you bring up invalid examples because you are confused. Try bringing up what is in your imagination, like those alleles that are advantageous in any environment.
Yes, I get it. You think telling the truth is a sign of confusion. That’s why you lie. Not a surprise coming from a Satan-worshipping nutcase.

So humans can create an environment for bacteria to evolve resistance to drugs
Which is yet more evidence that environments do not have to radically change in they way you assume.
