I respond by saying that the Bible may be many things but it does not provide that kind of information. Finally, I'm not arguing anything, I'm stating fact. I don't think there's a single person here at BHO who would describe the Bible as a scientific textbook.




Some of the common definitions of "argument":
1. A discussion in which disagreement is expressed; a debate
2. A course of reasoning aimed at demonstrating truth or falsehood
3. A fact or statement put forth as proof or evidence; a reason

If someone says that something is THIS and you reply that it's not - it's THAT - then you are engaged in an argument.

If you'd rather call it "debate" or even call it "offering FACTS to disprove a statement" then go ahead - but whatever you call it, and regardless of how politely you present your view, it is still an argument and if it involves religion on either side - it's PROHIBITED on this forum.

Mayr book is at my local library branch ready for pickup! Seems the place to start (but it's a long list.)

If for some reason I don't get the chance, thanks to all for the recommendations and the GREAT dialog. Any day you learn something is a good day, and its been a GOOD couple of days.

You're assuming that I wasn't addressing BOTH?

Both parties are violating the rules - and when I see that I will respond as I see fit. Perhaps you should direct your comments to the moderators - though I fear you'll find they'd sooner support my position than yours.

During the preceding interlude, I've been reading up on nylonase. Fascinating example. Bacteria were found in a waste pond in Japan that had developed the ability to process nylon manufacturing waste products by a simple frame shift mutation. The enzymatic mechanism was not pre-existing, and was apparently developed since 1935 when nylon was first synthesized.

Yes, and the gene for this same enzyme was randomly mutated in vitro, in the laboratory, and they discovered new versions that were even more effective at degrading nylon than the version found initially. One of the most powerful arguments for evolution is based on experiments like these, using genes or microbes.

Another one: It was once thought that one feature that defined the bacterium Escherichia coli was its inability to grow on the carbon source citrate. If you grow Escherichia coli on limiting glucose (I think it was glucose, anyway) and plenty of citrate for many thousands of generations you eventually find, through lab evolution, a strain that can grow on citrate alone. It turns out that this is not due to a single mutation, but many. One criticism leveled at evolution is that it can not be possible to create new traits if the trait depends on multiple mutations, but experiments like this one are demonstrating that such complex traits can evolve. You can do this kind of experiment if the organism you study divides, or reproduces, every 20 minutes!

I don't think the Mayr book gets into this much, evolution in the laboratory.

I'm not sure I understand their criticism. The way I imagine it, mutations that have no benefit to the organism can persist in the offspring of that organism as long as they're not deleterious to the organisms with that trait.

If that mutation were later to combine with another new mutation that then enabled the organism to capitalize on a food source (like nylon) that was previously denied to them - then the critters blessed with both mutations will benefit and behold - nylon eating bacteria.

Right, you've got mutations that have no effect at all (silent mutations) on genes and their proteins, you have mutations that do change the gene and its protein in some way but are not deleterious, you have mutations that are immediately beneficial, and then immediately deleterious mutations. There's also a phenomenon called pleiotropy where one mutation affects more than one feature of an organism (e.g. classic example, a specific mutation in human hemoglobin causes sickle cell anemia and also confers greater resistance to malaria).

So the argument has been specifically directed at those cases where many genes (and their proteins) work together to create a single structure, like the flagellum of a bacterium (this is that whiplike "tail" that some bacteria have) or the mammalian eye. So the argument goes like "Evolution could not have made this structure because a whole bunch of genes must have mutated or changed to make this structure. This would be too deleterious, because of pleiotropy." So people have been studying pleiotropy, as in "how many genes actually have pleiotropic effects when mutated" and "how many traits are effected when one of these genes is mutated". The results are saying that the burden of pleiotropy or the burden of complexity is not as great as the critics imagine.

This is a big deal in evolutionary research, because it really gets into the heart of the matter. What does mutation really do? How much variation, or mutation, can we tolerate? How much "neutral" variation is there in our genomes? The kind you were referring to.

"Evolution could not have made this structure because a whole bunch of genes must have mutated or changed to make this structure. This would be too deleterious, because of pleiotropy."


Well - obviously this is untrue - considering there are all sorts of traits that involve hundreds if not thousands of mutations to come about.....ooops - that's not a logical argument, is it?

At the end of the day, single mutations are (not always) but commonly dangerous. They seem to degrade survivorship. You don't see many of them as the expression made them unfit and they are either outright dead or have failed to reproduce. The whole beast must always remain optimally fit for survivorship.

Jump in the lake and evolve :) grow gills. That's complex anatomy. Now you can't hang with the other humans and gills won't make you a successful fish.

There you go, Lee. It hasn't evolved -- it's mutated to a form which gives an advantage to the survivability of the bacteria, such that they multiply and become the dominant species in their niche. Works for me.

Lee - it's pretty clear to me that you have little or no respect for the rules of this forum.

You point out that I'm always quick into controversial posts - but if you read my comments, very rarely do I break the rules of this forum.

I wish I could say that same about you but even this post of yours to which I'm responding is just another in a long string of examples of your violations of the forum rules.

When I was a mod - people that repeatedly violated the rules were banned from posting. I don't know what's happened but I'm beginning to think maybe I ought to see if I can get my old job back.

Bconk, it has everything to do with it. You said the bible wasn't a scientific book. How much more scientific could you get when it told the world that the earth was round hundreds of years before science figured it out.


Well, the Greeks and the Egyptians knew it hundreds, if not thousands of years before the book you cite. And wasn't there a definition of "scientific theory" posted somewhere in this thread. Maybe a re-read is in order.

I, for one, have been very interested in this topic and would prefer to let those with knowledge intelligently discuss the topic (there sure are a lot of smartypants peoples here!) w/o the Religulous Thread Hi-Jacking! In fact, Kudos to all the members here who have gently steered the discussion back to topic and not into the realm of rule violations.

How much more scientific could you get when it told the world that the earth was round hundreds of years before science figured it out. A lot of science is just theory and not fact. Evolution is a theory and not a FACT. Scientists have never shown one shred of evidence that evolution is a fact. I think people on this forum needs to understand that.

Neither of the definitions fit at all (most church doctrines freely accept both concepts), but this is my last comment on the matter as it's borderline inappropriate not only for the thread but for the rules.

The Arkansas Supreme Court, back in 1985, I believe, ruled on this exact statement. The judge was William Overton. And a number of high courts have ruled on it since. The Bible is not considered a science book, at least according to a number of state constitutions and the US Constitution.

I believe I posted an informal, but generally accepted definition of scientific theory a page or two back. That should be a guide for what is permitted on this thread.

Also, someone made a comment that this thread is creating animosity, and therefore should be locked. That response would give power to anyone on any thread who didn't like what he/she was reading.

To revert to the discussion about the concept of evolution.

If you lop off the third base from each triplet in the DNA code, you get a doublet code which has Start, Stop and approx 15 amino acids which represent all 4 of the functional types (nonpolar, polar, + charged and - charged) needed for complex protein shape.

I think it's interesting that the code can be simplified so brutally and still signify proper form and function in protein expression.

What ever happened to the prokaryote gang and the notion of a single strand RNA hereditary code?

As eveybody knows, star ships dump their garbage before they go to light speed. Harrison Ford said so. Somebody tossed the kitchen scraps and that's the first DNA on Earth. What a gene pool! What if, what if the Panspermia thing turns out to be the best answer of all?

We do not know where we are going.
Nor do most of us care.
For us, it is enough that we are on our way.
