genetics are real, but what genes come out is determined by the position of the planets. two ugly parents can have a beautiful child because the beautiful child has a horoscope that supports beauty.

studying nihilism is a useful endeavour in the age of aquarius. but you have to assume that everything nihilists say is the exact opposite of the truth. omens, horoscopes, and so forth, are absolutely real. the world is a seamless poem authored by the divine providence.

They aren't really going extinct though. What's happening is that the world's most popular insecticide kills domesticated agricultural bees because they happen to also be insects despite the fact that Bayer marketed it as completely safe and so they pay a lot of scientists to muddy the water with bogus research to pretend like the cause is still a mystery.

Wild bees are doing just fine.

ok, so name some specific examples of specific species that has happened to then, where they were facing extinction and then adapted to survive, not just mere random changes over time.

ytpipo and certain east asians realized they couldn't eat grass but cows could and then turn that grass into milk which they could drink. most pipo are lactose intolerant adulthood, but if it was a famine, and all you had to drink was milk, you were going to drink it, and if you shit yourself to death then too bad, but if you could process those calories and it would help you survive you'd pass your milk tolerance down to future generations who would continue to have that edge in famines.

other races didn't keep cows so they never developed this trait and have massively higher rates of lactose intolerance today

its ok, i accept you dont know what youre talking about and just blindly believe something and you feign mental superiority to cope with your insecurity

theres no proof they would have died out without developing lactose tolerance. in fact, that most lactose tolerant countries in the world have the worst birth rates in the world. at best its a sign it made life easier for some time

>>221237118
breeding selection or chance selection only proves that certain breeding makes life potentially easier but i dont see any proof that it actually has guaranteed survival whereas they would have went extinct if that generational breeding didnt happen. and it can make life easier for some time but then do nothing later or perhaps make life harder later. if theres no proof of this then evolution basically just means beings prefer to procreate with one over the other... something that is incredibly obvious to anyone even centuries before the thought of evolution was theorized.

>>221236459
Humans have observed speciation events. We are no longer talking about hypotheses, there is proof of evolution. You could've just googled it.
>>
>>221237336
Yeah. I remember some scientists returned to an island with an endemic lizard species after a massive hurricane went over it, and they found that the lizards, within the very short duration of a few years, had evolutionarily selected for significantly larger feet--presumably because they helped grip strength and the ones who couldn't hold on got blown off and had their shit rekt.
>>
>>221237336
>>221237407
but for every case that it might save them from extinction theres probably way more cases where it merely made life easier for them or even went extinct because they didnt adapt well enough. so if its just so due to luck and unpredictable it basically means if youre lucky itll save you. its like saying wow look at this case where evolution randomly occurred, but ignore all the cases where it didnt and then say thats proof of evolution. we already knew breeding can make life easier centuries before evolution was theorized via dog breeding; some dogs became healthier and others didnt.

its not about religion at all. you can be skeptical of evolution regardless of if you believe in god or not. we already knew centuries before the concept of evolution that breeding can change quality of life and appearance. so what does evolution even bring to the table? were supposed to treat it as science because of 0.001% of times it occurs that no one even predicts?

No hinduism says humans have existed for millions and billions of years
Although Vishnu's 8 avatars symbolise evolution
Fish (water being)
Turtle (amphibian)
Boar (mammal)
Lion Man (transition phase between animal and sapient human)
Nomadic kshatriya slaying brahmin warrior ( early agrarian man)
The perfect man (Ram)
The perfect god ( krishna)
(Everything after that is buddhist larp)

Probably our creator aliens left us a guide to tell us our final stage is becoming gods

>i dont see any proof that it actually has guaranteed survival
That's not what evolution is. Evolution selects for traits that have a higher chance to be bred. What it means is that a lot of the time those traits are beneficial, because if you breed more it also means you had a higher survival chance that those who died and didnt breed. But it may cause extinction in the long run, evolution is not a conscious agent with long term planning.

Even if they ate ideally, their looks would still be determined by the horoscope. The horoscope even indicates whether they would have access to such nutrition in the first place.

>>221243598
Modern theory of evolution grew from Darwin's, but it isn't the same. There has been similiar theories presented before, even ancients knew many of the principles, but they weren't formulated in a widely accepted form before him. During and after Darwin there has been different theories trying to explain life and the way it adapts, such as lamarcianism and "intelligent design", but these failed. And theory of evolution itself has had and still has many schools of thought regarding some of the specifics, like what role mass extinctions play in evolution.

They learnt evolution from Pokemon and creationist talking heads and think evolution is when Pineapples evolve into House cats in one generation.
