Yeah I get ya. An admission that your never going to know everything is the key to knowing more I guess.

You're right.
No reflection no self.

I'm sorry sudly.
I don't think we are going to get along, but ignoring you is both childish and against my reasons for being here and HERE.

Thanks all.

To have little to say about the complexities of life is terrible, but to have very much to say is to be delusional. Nothing in particular is really known. Intelligence is as much of a mystery as anything else; it is only through voluntary or involuntary lack thereof that life is grasped. It should fall through our fingers, and yet there is so much to feel as it runs through. To not grasp but to let life sift through us, that is the idea, that is intelligent behaviour. At least when all is said and done, we left an interesting pattern on the beach of the cataclysmic kingdom of sheer existence, if we at least made more than a clenched fist with our feeble minds.

what is your working definition of evolution for this thread?

sudly said:*You are conscious and you are sentient and you should know that you evolved.




i disagree. none of us posting evolved.  it's highly unlikely any of our parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and so on evolved, outside of minor genetic mutations.  if you want to consider any minor genetic mutation evolving, then i will concede that point.  however, we are the PRODUCT of a former species that evolved into our current species.  until the next progression of homo sapiens sapiens comes to surface, no humans alive, imo, could be considered to have evolved.

OMG this much we do know.  This section of the forum is deteriorating, and some members need to at least study what drives evolution.  redgreenvines at least "gets it" on this one, and it's mutation.  That's it.  Either the mutation works out, or it doesn't.  But, that takes a long time to drive, and how can we know that given the changing environment that this year's good mutation won't be next years shit out of luck mutation?

You talking to me?
I understand evolution as its taught both from the Darwin Era through to now reading Dawkins and everything in between.
Its not really rocket science tbh mutations are either of benifit or not and will be on bred or not(nutshell).
This is merely base learning.

The E. coli long-term evolution experiment (LTEE) is an ongoing study in experimental evolution led by Richard Lenski that has been tracking genetic changes in 12 initially identical populations of asexual Escherichia coli bacteria since 24 February 1988. The populations reached the milestone of 50,000 generations in February 2010 and 66,000 in November 2016.

Over the course of the experiment, Lenski and his colleagues have reported a wide array of phenotypic and genotypic changes in the evolving populations.

With evidence in genetics, fossils, geology and microbiology evolution is scientific fact, just as the theories of gravity and electromagnetism are.

so, based on that, any mutation that does not yield "successful" results, i.e. adaption that allows one to continue surviving, would not qualify as evolution, per your definition?

if so, i stand by my statement that NONE of us are likely to have evolved, are evolving, or multiple generations passed have evolved.  So unless your comment, "You are conscious and you are sentient and you should know that you evolved.", was sarcasm, then your comment is false.

Lots of genetic mutations result in geno-/phenotypic changes that don't ultimately benefit the individual or any individuals born of that mutated individual.  like Lunar stated, it [can] take A LONG TIME for a successful mutation to yield itself.

Evolution is the accumulation of genetic changes that lead to adaptation and survival. Some mutations do not provide a benefit and so the organisms dies, sometimes the mutation does provide a benefit (e.g. thicker hair/stronger bones) and the animal does survive.

It's all apart of evolution.
