OK I will answer the arguments presented in the FAQS: Intelligent Design V Darwin...both have some problems... THE SEVERAL DIFFERENCES..intelligent design doesn't address adaptation very well and Darwinism takes too long..and doesn't make sense in some very key areas... Here are some thoughts about both: I would say there is "ADAPTATION" but that seems to be built in or the species dies.. Consider...Virus "Mutation"...A species can only "adapt" within a range...We can adapt to "smallpox." We do not mutate or evolve..we develop an "immunity" That is within the range of the species. It has been said that small pox wiped out the Indians..but what is interesting is that there wasn't any vaccine at that time. Whites had some small acquired immunity..which was a slight edge but they were as susceptible as the Indians..That is "adaptation." That slight edge or "adaptation" is lost in succeeding generations..The species revert to the Mean or Type..just like the Darwin Finches discussed below. Speciation seems to be limited to what is already in the box of dog, human, finch, virus...That means a Darwin Finch can adapt to a range FINCH.. but when the environmental factors get beyond that range FINCH..the bird cannot "mutate" or "adapt." The bird cannot mutate into a lion to survive in an environment overrun, overgrazed and trampled by the sudden appearance of a herd of buffalo..Or even "evolve" or "mutate" into any form required to cope with the environmental change..And the Darwin Finch Reverts to Type..which means that a micrometer increase in beak size in big seed seasons quickly Reverts to the Mean beak size of Finch in normal times..The bird is limited to FINCH BOX. Think of it this way..If species could rapidly "evolve" or "mutate" in reaction to environmental factors..then we should be seeing very rapid evolution because many species are under very serious pressure right now. This is not the case...Species are not "adapting' or "mutating" They are becoming extinct..OK ..next... Here is an Argument: Speciation. For Instance..an isolated population (2) has 10 genomes..There is a switch in the 5th genome..which is not shared by the general population (1)from which it is isolated...That switch is inherited..So the isolated population (2) becomes a bit different ...then a second switch occurs on the eighth genone in the isolated population..and this third population (3) is slightly different than the second (2) and very different than the Greater Population..(1) That is the "instant" switch I mentioned at the beginning of this thread..but it has not be demonstrated that fusing or breaking genomes or chromosomes means anything at all. It is the intriguing question of 46 human chromosomes and 48 in chimps..It is theorized that human's fused or the chimps broke but instantly? Although no one denies now that humans appeared very abruptly.. Or Did They? All dogs are wolves...dogs can REVERT TO TYPE and can breed with wolves and other canines....But We are alone..we are unable to breed with any other "ape type." That means we are a different species..although Darwinist keep trying to breed us off to Neanderthals and other apes using the "switch" theory above..but what if....our line is unbroken but we are the only surviving member? What if there were always humans..maybe bigger or smaller..but always identifiably human? That would not have a switch..it would not have an adaptation although it might be bigger or smaller or ..different within the BOX human...not mutated or evolved but..always within the range "human?" These are some of my Heretical Ravings but as you see... I am not scientifically illiterate.. I just have a different theory..and I don't buy into UnEthical Science in any way..as Ethics and Good Science have always been true and real in the end...I don't buy into eugenics in any form..All Men Are Created Equal...and no "interbreeding" with ape men or space men can change that..not by evolotionary accident or certainly not by (intelligent) design..
