“Deep insights into evolution.” Hogwash.

How does one explain the fact that 90 percent of animal life, genetically speaking, is roughly the same age?

Wow! God only knows how that could have happened!!

Wow! Another new proof of evolution. I can’t keep up. If this turns out to be true I think this makes 1.

Very interesting. Hints that Genesis might not have been 4,000 years ago, but 200,000.

Fascinating.

Sweeping Gene Survey


Pretty sure I don’t have the sweeping gene. I usually just wind up tripping over the broom and making a big mess.

In the beginning, God created......

Science may get it right one day.

Money quote from the article:

And yet—another unexpected finding from the study—species have very clear genetic boundaries, and there's nothing much in between.

"If individuals are stars, then species are galaxies," said Thaler. "They are compact clusters in the vastness of empty sequence space."

The absence of "in-between" species is something that also perplexed Darwin, he said.

“Life is fragile, susceptible to reductions in population from ice ages and other forms of environmental change, infections, predation, competition from other species and for limited resources, and interactions among these forces,” says Dr. Thaler. Adds Dr. Thaler, “The similar sequence variation in many species suggests that all of animal life experiences pulses of growth and stasis or near extinction on similar time scales.”

“Scholars have previously argued that 99% of all animal species that ever lived are now extinct. Our work suggests that most species of animals alive today are like humans, descendants of ancestors who emerged from small populations possibly with near-extinction events within the last few hundred thousand years.”

...

So when the Global Warming scammers start whining about extinctions we can shove this in their faces.

Very poorly written article.

My assumption would be that either the measurements are wrong; or, the rate of mitochondrial change is much slower than the baseline they are using.

The latter, I would think, is true since mitochondria are so fundamental to basic cell metabolism that just about any random mutation would be fatal. So the time frame to acquire random or even useful changes must be very lengthy.

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. (Gen 1:1)

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.(John 1:1-3,14)

For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. (Col 1:16,17)

Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. (Heb 1:1,2)

Thank God I was born without the sweeping gene...and also the vacuuming and dusting gene.

I have them all hired out.

Well, Duh. This has always been obvious to me. Apes have 24 chromosome pairs. Humans have 23. There's NOTHING in between. (And you can't go from 24 to 23 over zillions of years.)

Only about 94 thousand years off, nothing in a believer of the therory of evolution’s mind set.
