(((Evolution)))

The problem with this kind of thinking is that, hypothetically speaking, if evolution was TRUE, you could still come up with these same complaints. Therefor the argument is worthless trash.

You just set up an imaginary point in the evolution of man and decided that everything before that point is just a mutant monkey and everything after that point is just a mutant human.

Here is a quite accurate chart of the evolution of whales. Note that the time scale is in MILLIONS of years. If you take e.g. a generation time of 20 years you would have 2.500.000 generations that can slowly adapt to the environment over 50.000.0000 years.
Many people will not understand that evolution is a slow and gradual process. Human life span is too short to observe it for most species (although one can already observe significant changes of some populations within decades)

>So you're telling me that this somehow turned into a whale?
THIS thing (whatever it is) did not turn into another thing. This is another common misconception about evolution. The individuals of the population that had favourable traits were more likely to reproduce and pass on their genes. This went on over generations with each individual of the population looking very, very similar to its parent and offspring generation. After many generations (thousands or even more) you would see significant addaptions to the aquatic environment, like feet turning into fins......

There are some other important factors to it and once you will start reading more about evolution you will start to realize that the evidence for it is tremendous. Maybe read a book like "the greates show on earth" from Richard Dawkins if you want to know more

>>9153036
The chart is full of points that have been refuted a thousand times. It's used to point out the ignorance of people who still use them. People don't respond to them intellectually, much like how you wouldn't respond intellectually to someone who says that the Earth is only 10,000 years old, humans once lived to 600 years old, and a great flood once killed everyone but a man, his family, and two of every species.

Do any of you lurking evolution denialists have an explanation for vestigial structures?

>>9152861
>>>/pol/

>>9153852
The Appendix is not vestigial. People who have their Appendix removed are more likely to have problems dealing with infections.

The Coccyx is not vestigial. You cannot control your bowels without it. There was a guy who offered to pay people thousands of dollars to have their Coccyx. Nobody wanted to claim it was vestigial after that.

In the same way that saying "I don't understand Evolution, therefore God must have done it" is a poor argument, saying "I don't know what this organ does therefore it must be a byproduct of evolution" is a poor argument.

There are better arguments for evolution than the vestigial organ argument.

>>9153912
**to have their coccyx removed.**

>>9152861
>"homo sapiens evolved from neanderthals!"

>>9153036
Then how come there are no more trilobites?

>>9153912
I think you misunderstand what "vestigal" means with respect of structures in extant species, humans included.

Vestigal does not mean useless. A vestige is what is "left over" of a structure present in ancestors, or extant relatives. It only means that the structure no longer fulfils the function it fulfilled in ancestral species. Ear bones, no longer a gill support structure. Appendix, no longer used directly in digestion. Coccyx, no longer the base of a tail.

This isn't a contentious point to anyone who knows what they're talking about. Unless they are actively trying to deceive others into thinking it is contentious.

Evolution is not grounded in reality, it's as simple as that.

In fact, everything points to a devolution of the human race, and life in general.

>>9153998
>everything points to a devolution of the human race, and life in general.

yeah, you were spawned and mankind or life on earth hasn't recovered since

>>9154051
>pic
I would have to admit, I kek'd.

>>9153986
So in other words, a vestigial organ is neither useless nor unimportant? Therefore it is something that a creator would put into a living creature because it does, in fact, serve a purpose.

Not that I am claiming vestigial organs to be proof of God, but the defense that vestigial organs serve a function severely reduces the strength of the argument. I would simply argue that calling an organ vestigial is a fairly circular argument because you would have to assume that the creature evolved to come to that conclusion.

>>9154051
Not a particularly convincing argument, but funny as hell.

I'd question why a perfect creator would intentionally develop a system that allows for such things like cancer and be a benevolent and sane being.

I think its more likely that we are the spawn of millions of years of things happening and the scale of it is beyond our comprehension so we look to condense the formation of our existence to a familiar and chronologically close cause (we were created by an omnipotent being tens of thousands of years ago).

I don't think Religious people are stupid though. As far as I'm concerned, the "State" is no more real an entity than "God" and most of the political process is bullshit anyways.

If it is Original Sin that begot things like cancer, then why do the faithful and redeemed still fall to the same machinations that cull the heretical?

Mutation is coincidental. Evolution is adaption, which is obviously non-coincidental, but instead reactionary.

>>9154455
Adaptation is still coincidental because the environment is unpredictable.

Wow, so consistent.

>>9154456
While I agree on the point that the environment is unpredictable, I would rather explicitly state that adaptation is a direct result of the environment, ergo the adaptation itself is only indirectly coincidental. I'd word it like this because, if one worked on a premise like yours, everything would be coincidental due to assumed random distribution of particles with the big bang.

No, it's an assumption so there can't be much wrong with it anyway. It's just that it makes it harder to assign certain reasons for certain events. I guess my stance here is just based on my laziness.
