So many are falling for the evolution of molecules meme, further cementing the status quo evolution of the gaps theory. One thing that is nice about it is that it will refute itself, because they can actually perform meaningful experiments on the simple substances. It feels like I am watching the scaffolding being put together to build the domino to knock down all others. When natural selection in the simple substance proves to be an invalid hypothesis, natural selection and evolution will be void with it.

That's evolution
You saying "adaptation isn't evolution" is false because adaptation is, in fact, evolution. There is no difference between "micro" and "macro" evolution, you need to stop with the low IQ creationist talking points
>One kind of animal changing into another kind of animal has not been observed
That's speciation and has been observed many times. "Kinds" in the creationist worldview isn't even well defined or real.
For example, archeopteryx is "half bird half lizard", if you want an example of something "between kinds".
>life coming from non life hasn't either.
There are multiple self replicating polypeptides that are known. One is only 32 amino acids long. This will be solved in a few years
>>
>>16279320
>There is no difference between "micro" and "macro" evolution
There is if the changes are bounded, which is what has been observed. Creatures have a range of adaptability within which they remain viable (can live, function, reproduce etc). Outside of that they are not viable and die.

its just a bird. later and more thorough examinations concluded this but the idea that its a transitional form stuck in the public mind.

tell me about 'species' then. consider all cat species - within the family of 'cats' they can all interbreed, perhaps not every species with every other, but all within the family of cat can at some point interbreed. But a cat will never breed with a dog.

there are vagaries on both sides of this,
>>
>>16279356
>but the idea that its a transitional form stuck in the public mind.
It’s a transitional form because it has a bony tail, teeth and fingers. It’s not the only bird like that in the fossil record either, and all of them are transitional
>perhaps not every species with every other, but all within the family of cat can at some point interbreed
Do you seriously expect a lion to be capable of interbreeding with a house cat? Species are defined by genetic distance and lack of gene flow today. It’s not a perfect system, but it’s a whole lot fucking better than “kinds” where apparently humans and chimps are different kinds while an entirely family of cats, class of birds or even suborder of snakes are apparently the single kinds
>>
>>16279356
>There is if the changes are bounded,
Which they aren't, not in the way you're saying
There is nothing stopping chihuahuas from eventually turning into a mouse like thing, which would be a "different kind", as an example
>its just a bird.
No, it isn't. It's a direct proof of something between birds and reptiles.
>later and more thorough examinations concluded this
No, they didn't. Its creationists saying "it's just a bird!" To cope with the direct transitional form.
We also have over 6000 fossils of over 22 different species showing the transition to modern humans, they are transitional forms, but you guys just go "thats just an ape!" Or "that's just a human" despite the objective transition happening across the species and fossils.
>you are encouraged to provide some examples of this.

>what do you think of what this guy has to say?
There's a known polypeptide which is 32 amino acids long. This forms an upper bound on the minimal amount of amino acids in a specific sequence required to start to self replicate (it could be fewer but need not be larger)
The chance that this appears given random sequential trials is about 10^40
However, trials in the world are not sequential, they happen all over the place at the same time over time. Trillions of trials simultaneously across the ocean during early earth, which was and is extremely rich in amino acids (as is the universe in general)
There was maybe 10^24 liters of ocean during the early earth. If we assume a VERY DILUTE distribution of amino acids at 1 million per liter (when in reality it would be trillions per liter but I'm diluting it), then we cycle through 32 strings of amino acids, you would have about 10^31 of these 32-amino-acid self replicating molecules across the ocean in 1 year. And that's assuming extreme dilution and only 1 self replicating polypeptide let along all the other self replicating peptides or polynucleotides.
>>
RNA came before amino acid. it's RNA that delivers amino acids to ribosomes (also made of RNA) that manufacturer proteins which are chains of amino acids
>>
>>16279434
Yes, in a cell. mRNA and tRNA go to the ribosome and make the protein, but self replicating polypeptides exist.
The RNA might have hijacked various replicating amino acids which both formed independently. The RNA and ribosome do not need to be formed prior to the peptides. They all could form on their own and eventually join in a membrane structure. All these things are forming and proliferating and eventually the proto cell forms by these things interacting with each other.
However abiogenesis isn't known yet there's more work to be done.

Wrong
>links to Brian Thomas on a creationist website
I already said, creationists simply denying reality because it refutes their position isn't an argument. Archeopteryx is NOT "just a bird" it has objective anatomical features which are between bird and lizard because it's a "transitional form". Creationists simply pretend this isn't true because it directly shows you a transitional form which you guys staked your position on not existing.
The same is true for the over 6000 fossils of the 22 species which are transitional between humans and out ancestors with the other great apes.

because you need a huge ass lab and the experiment would need to be ran for hundreds of millions of years. and even if you did that, any result from such experiment wouldn't prove anything, because it's a perchance thing.
so in reality, to run such an experiement that you can get meaningful info out of, you'd need to start a few thousand Earths at a minimum, in parallel, each with similar conditions as ours had.
observe all these Earths for hundreds of millions of years, note down the results, and start debating them. anything else is just bullshit.
again because low iq retards like you need it dumbed down: you cannot recreate the experiment in the lab, because there's too many water molecules that need to interact with other chemicals for hundreds of millions of years to get close to the conditions that allowed for life to form. anything else short of that is a bad experiment. if you use less water molecules then you need to extend the time it runs for. but having a smaller Earth or a larger Earth means you change the conditions so you need to make "identical" Earths for running such experiment. if 1000 Earths don't spawn life in a few hundreds of millions of years you might have an argument for "we're so fucking special", you retard. start life in a lab is not a legitimate argument for fucks sake, it's primitive retarded thinking. it doesn't make scientific and mathematical sense. it's flawed logic.

The most common layman explanation I think one can give is: "sexually selects other members of the same species always or most commonly, is interfertile with members of the same species that it selects, and produces offspring which abide the two previous rules."
This means that when something stops seeing another species as a viable mate, it's now a new species, which is common in biology. See Darwin's finches. Maybe interfertile, but they never sexually select eachother.

because it's not possible in human life terms. it's not a legitimate ask. you can't realistically run a lab experiment to make life, if the requirments for experiment imply the number of water molecules that Earth had at that time, interacting for few hundreds of millions of years in certain conditions. you cannot replicate that as a human, not sure what you're not following. lay off the retard juice.
