RTMCDGE and "Dissent from Darwin" Petition

[Dan_Eastwood]

@rtmcdge

Now, you were saying something about your empirically observed pattern of real life results that have been tested and retested over and over again.
WHERE IS IT?

I carefully wrote out an example for you, and you have thus far ignored it. Find it here:

Welcome rtmcdge

@rtmcdge I think the problem is that you have been studying apologetics and equating that with science. Apologetics is not science, I think you must understand the difference? Here’s an example: Have you heard of Neil Shubin? He and other noted a gap in the fossil record between fish and land-walking tetrapods. Shubin and team hypothesized that fossil with transitional features between fish and tetrapods should exist. They searched geology records for rocks of the correct age and environment where such a creature might have lived. After several years of searching, they discovered a new type of fossil creature with the sort of transitional feature they predicted. We now know this fossil as Tiktaalik**. This constitutes an experiment in paleontology based on a prediction from Common Descent evolution. First a hypothesis (what to find), then a prediction (where to find), then gathering data, and finally a confirmation of the hypothesis. I could go on, mentioning lots of other predictio…

@rtmcdge

I don’t understand?

That is the appearance, yes. Some of the people here are working scientists. Most are well versed in science. You have a lot of complaints about the science of evolution, but you have yet to offer any alternative to the current theory of evolution - a theory that gives us real working results. You keep ignoring me whenever I write this, and I suspect it is because you have no answer. IF EVOLUTIONARY THEORY IS SO WRONG, THEN WHY DOES IT WORK SO WELL?
