Mick, I'm mightily impressed--and with the only rodent I can tolerate to boot.
If mark had not already nominated, and Yaro seconded, I would do either: but "Thirded!" has a dull, plopping sound...
Remarkable presentation. Thank you.

Re: A harder easy question
Mick gets exactly what I get. If you think he's agreed with your entirely counterfactual statements about genetic diversity, then you've completely misunderstood his post.
To say that variation means less diversity is to say that up is down, or black is white. It's nonsense. Why can't you see that?
Faith has sealed her mind against anything that contradicts her beliefs.
To maintain that seal, she rejects the very notion of evidence and rewrites history.

Real science did not really get going until Christians began applying the inference of a lawful universe made by a rational God to the study of the physical creation. --Faith

Re: A harder easy question
You are generous, crash. I see no evidence in this thread that Faith understands--or wishes to understand--any evolutionary premise.
Perhaps I'm too cynical. Please pardon the interruption.

Mighty ZZaxx
What if we were originally some sort of super-intelligent velociraptor types who got a bunch of uh, retroviruses from chimps, by you know Doin It with them, thinking it would be Safe ("No eggs in this one," said ZZaxx, slapping her hairy thigh)
Shouldn't that be "feathered thigh"? (Or maybe not...after...)
I know that sounds like a quibble, but I really just wanted to see that passage in print again.
Welcome.
