re: #116 jvic

Can anyone guesstimate how long it will take for speciation to be demonstrated in the laboratory? A decade or few? By the end of the century? (Could it happen via simulation on a megasuperdupercomputer before it happens in the lab?)

In what? A mammal or a bacteria? Creationists like to mention bacteria, but bacteria don’t have sex, and are probably chimera with a little virus help.

Mules are perhaps a partial existing example. All we need to do is figure out how to make them fertile, and maybe they would not breed with horses or donkeys.

Perhaps we could insert genes in a cat (2) that would make its offspring have an autoimmune reaction to sperm from normal cats. That would qualify as a species; except the creationists would also want the fur to be purple.
