C'mon NOBBY where's that 150 hours of biology & science getting you?
Surely you know the answer?

Tom, you seemed interested... not even a guess?

Am I going to be proven right... again?

Um...I missed the question again. With all the OT nonsense, I must
have lost the thread. In fact, I was going to ask you about it

I promise - I'll give it a shot when I return - only could you restate
the question again in this thread which I will place a watch marker
on?

Thanks.

"What key point about differentiation of species did Darwin get wrong?
Hint: it has to do with traits of offspring."


Pangenesis.

Very good.

Now explain your answer in your own words.

When you were little, you were a cheerful, happy-go-lucky young lad. But
years of abuse in getting kicked around on rec.boats has turned you bitter
and wrinkled your brow. Your kids will inherit that wrinkled-brow look.

Actually, I wasn't. I had (still have) red hair and redhead's classic
temper (which has mellowed).

Since you're talking about somebody else, possibly yourself, please
continue....

Sorry to hear that. You shouldn't take usenet so seriously.

... Your kids will inherit that wrinkled-brow look.



Will your children tend to fall under the hypnotic sway of politicians
spouting religious babble? Will they tend to make foolish financial
gambles on overlavish housing? Darwin would have said yes!

Anyway, you've explained Darwin's error rather well. Excellent!

You guys are hilarious. See parable about the blind men and the
elephant. (I think it's from the Hindu tradition). One of you seems
hung up on "how" things happened and the other seems hung up on "why".
I believe that the universe as we perceive it is an expression of a
cosmic thought that begins, continues, and ends in a manner that we
would characterize as simultaneously- although within the cosmic
thought itself there is no such thing as "time."

Many cosmologies, including Genesis, support that idea. Genesis says
that
energy (light) was simply thought/dreamed/willed into being with a
cosmic "let there be....." and observes that energy took different
forms ("one to rule the day, another to rule the night"). Genesis
continues with matter being drawn out of a universe that was originaly
"without form and void" (meaning no presence/form or absence/void of
matter- not "shapeless and expired") If the universe is a cosmic
thought and there is no such thing as time, the Bible thumpers and the
guys in the white lab coats are on the same page and have been all
along. :-)
