Nice try.

I joined this conversation because you made the specific claim that a duplication or change in regulation of "leg development" genes will result in a "freak," and that this has been observed.

Do you have a specific example of this or do you not?

Do you have a logical biochemical argument for this or do you not?

Can you clearly define which genes are included in the family of "leg development genes?"

Can you clearly define as it pertains to ecology the term "freak?"

Are you avoiding specific answers to my questions because it is far easier to weasel out of ignorant generalizations and subjective nonsense, as opposed to actually discussing science?

Evos always fail to produce evidence to support their claim that 'leg evolution' is the result of 'gene duplication' and congratulate themselves when they are able to turn the requirement for evidence around on their opponent.

That's not difficult to do. It's almost a basic debating lesson. It is merely a function of where you draw the line. It is no surprise that evos draw the line after their claim and before mine.

What's difficult is to produce evidence to support the initial claim, which is still lacking.

I suppose it works to keep the little evos deceived, however.
