The model is natural selection, mutation, speciation, and vertical inheritance. How many times have we stated this?
You arbitrarily rule out design all of the time, and for the same reasons. When you observe the planets moving about the Sun you rule out gravity fairies pushing them in their path because we have a natural mechanism that explains the motion.
And he also could not. If he did not deliberately set out to create all “kinds” such that they look exactly as if they evolved from common ancestors to each other, there is essentially zero chance he would have done so just by chance.
So the options are 1) common ancestry is true. 2) God deliberately created a universe in which common ancestry would be the correct scientific conclusion from the evidence.
Those are your options. Either one leads to the conclusion that according to science common ancestry is true.
These are not models. Real models can show how the prediction works. Dawkins built a model. The problem was that it required design to work. I have explained this to you many times
Wrong. The assertion is correct. If you disagree, please provide the evidence to support your claim.
Is it again time for us to ask you to provide the model that explains how living things were “designed”, so you can yet again fail to provide an answer?
I will repeat my request: Please provide the evidence to support your claim.
To be clear: I did NOT ask for you to post an article which confirms evolution, but which your non-existent powers of comprehension lead you to believe it does not.
Tell me how this confirms evolution? You claimed a perfect fit for common descent. This shows a non perfect fit. Your claim that the pattern shows common descent is the best and only description is non sense.
It doesn’t matter. Even if the author spoke to an eyewitness, it can only be an eyewitness account if it is provided by the eyewitness him/herself. This is not a difficult concept.
Mr. Literalist, Peter said that he witnessed Christ’s majesty.
You abandon literalism for convenience pretty quickly, don’t you?
So if the diagram showed just 1 gene “not following the branching tree”, for example there was 1 gene shared by humans and zebrafish and humans but not mice or frogs, you would also tout that as evidence against common ancestry?
It is when it comes from the eyewitness. That’s why courts have eyewitnesses themselves testify. The police report of what the eyewitness told officers what s/he saw is not eyewitness testimony.
