re: #129 EdDantes

In short, pre existing traits that enhance the ability of an organism to survive
are passed on: That is natural selection not evolution. No new species has evolved.

So you’re denying the existence of mutations in the genome?

This is also something that’s demonstrable. You take a bunch of bacteria, bathe them in radiation, and you can, afterwards, find mutations that are de novo, that did not exist at all in the previous population. Or, if you have time, you just wait, and the bacteria will likewise produce original mutations.

Again, the position of “okay, I accept ‘microevolution’ but I’m denying speciation” is an argument used by creastionists. At no point have your anti-evolution views departed from those used by the ID proponents.
