It's heartbreaking the way you're treated here. People can be so nasty.

Just remember that verse you post about the signs of the end. The love of many would cool off, etc. It's not cooled off, it's either absent or frozen.

Just remember, in the end, you'll be the winner. You've tried to help people and stood for what you believe.

Steve Jones, in this video, reminds me of you.

evolutionist brainwash our children into believing satans lies. We have gone to the point of no return. The only way to deal with them all is to kill them.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27068761


Oh Jesus Christ (incoming bad karma)

Your absolutely right, we should believe some BS in a book over logic... we are at a point of no return, if you want to help... stop procreating. Evolution will then show you how well it works.

No dipshit.

But peacocks evolved their elaborate feathers as a means of sexual attracting mates, to continue the species.

But that's probably a little too advanced a concept for your little miserable retarded little creationist brain.

DGN, I really like your threads, they're entertaining. But seriously....

Can you prove your creationist theory? Can you prove that God intelligently designed everything on this planet?

And just to keep it real...no bible quotes please? Actual proof, not some book equally at odds as Mr Darwin's theories...

You never address this request...

OP, have you ever even seen a peacock? Most of the time they just look like birds.

They use their tails to attract mates and to scare off smaller predators.

Does it really make a difference how it all began. Why doesn't anyone give a shit about what we are doing right now. I mean, what are we doing? where are we going? Is this what life is all about, a stupid game of I'm right, no I'm right. Maybe we all really don't know anything.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15670285


How it all began includes the answer of who will intercept man's total destruction of the earth by nuclear winter;
"We thank you, Jehovah God, the Almighty, the One who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and begun ruling as king. 18 But the nations became wrathful, and your own wrath came, and the appointed time for the dead to be judged, and to give [their] reward to your slaves the prophets and to the holy ones and to those fearing your name, the small and the great, and to bring to ruin those ruining the earth.” Rv11:17

Right but my questions is not why they have big fancy tails, it's at point in time did a peacock, working in his molecular research lab write out the genetic formula to construct the tail? I believe it was divinely designed into the first peacock and genetically passed on to them all.

when the males flash their tail feathers, the last thing they want is to be hidden.

it's rather ironic you chose this because the females gather to the male who has

largest, healthiest complete plumage .

Eyespot markings serve as an anti-predatory device by either scaring off potential predators or confusing them to deflect attacks away from vital body parts.

Many peacocks have survived attacks, because the predator pounced on the peacock's train rather than the peacock itself.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26697328


That may explain why it has the feathers. My question is how could a peacock think of that and rewrite it's it's own dna to create it?
 Quoting: DGN


The peacoks with more fabulous and more believable feathers survived attacks to reproduce while those that didn't either died or were found to be unfit by females.
As the ones with bigger feathers reproduce, their children had similarly sized feathers while others may have grown even longer feathers.
They soon found themselves in a cold war of feathers.

 Quoting: DGN


He's right DGN, you do not seem to understand the basic concepts of evolution. Which is why I reccommend you stop debating the topic until you do.
Animals do not rewrite their DNA, every time a cell or animal reproduces there is a chance for random genetic mutations. Most of the time these mutations are harmless, however some of the mutations actually give the animal an advantage.
In this case, there may have been a mutation in one of the pre-peacocks long ago, that had their feather growing genes mutate to accomadate much larger feathers.
These feathers allowed it to remain camoflauged when around certain vegatation/terrain. It also made the bird look bigger than it really was, warding off would-be predators.
These advantages would have led to a higher chance of survival, and thus higher chance of reproducing. While those that idn't have the genes would not have been aas sucessful.

*sigh* The basic concept is that there are mutations that happen, the ones which increase the survivability of an organism are more likely to be passed onto the next generation, the ones that lower survivability are less likely to be propagated and thus end up being less common or eliminated from the gene pool. There is no choosing it any more than you choose which genes you pass onto your children.

I find the video you posted in response interesting, so you think there is an intelligent being who decided that cancer was something we were missing? Who decided the world just wouldn't be complete without malaria? Not that an idea being comforting makes it more likely to be true, but I find it strange that you would choose to believe in such a malicious entity in spite of explanations which have much more evidence.

When Darwin came up with his theory, scientists thought the cell was a lump of goo.

If the fantastically complex nature of the cell had been discovered before Darwin, his theory would have never seen the light of day.

Re: Survival of the fittest? Did the evolution thingy NON-intelligently create the peacocks feathers so it could hide in the bushes Mr Darwin?
"Survival of the fittest" is often misinterpreted as "Survival of the strongest" (especially from non english speakers who think "fit" means "fitness").

But it comes from "to fit" like "suited". Therefore "Survival of the fittest" means that those will survive who fit best into a changed environment. And in many cases in Earths history that were not the strongest, often it were the weaker and defensive ones who fitted best.
