>>29289955Holy fuck that doesn't even describe how evolution works.
We know how old the rocks are because of radioactive decay
Evolution is gradual
There is no "point" to evolution. It's completely and utterly fucking random. When mutations happen, if what changes is beneficial, then chances are you have a higher chance of mating, since it lets you survive better. Whales, for example, didn't really need legs. So when one whale that had a mutation making his legs slightly smaller, meaning that less oxygen would be wasted sending it to the legs, it was better able to live in the water, where the cold is a serious danger. Blubber, which is different from fat, mind you, is similar. Why do you think that whales and seals both managed to have it? Not because "blubber makes you better for survival so they evolved it so they could survive better", but "the same or similar mutation happened at one point, and it built up over time" Even so, the blubber of whales and seals are different, so it isn't the same, but similar. Things don't evolve shit because they need it, when something evolves that is beneficial, that animal is better able to survive, so it reproduces more, spreading its gene. It builds up over time, it's not like one day it has legs, then the next day it decides "oh shit i would swim faster if I had no legs", so it has a kid with no fucking legs, because that's what you're implying.
The strong force keeps atoms together, which is more powerful that the charge of atoms. At the scale of an atom, the strong force is stronger than the electromagnetic force, which is what makes same charges repel.
Genetics. Fucking genetics. Why do the telomeres exist then? Why do viruses exist? Why do amino acids form when someone recreates early earth conditions. Why can animals with different chromosome counts reproduce?
This is basically what would happen if a random guy who believes in evolution talked to someone who was well researched in disproving evolution.
