ScienceDaily (Apr. 18, 2008) — In 1971, biologists moved five adult pairs of Italian wall lizards from their home island of Pod Kopiste, in the South Adriatic Sea, to the neighboring island of Pod Mrcaru. Now, an international team of researchers has shown that introducing these small, green-backed lizards, Podarcis sicula, to a new environment caused them to undergo rapid and large-scale evolutionary changes.
TAKE THAT BEN STEIN…ER…INTELLIGENT DESIGN (whoah, those rhyme!)
Original Article: Lizards Undergo Rapid Evolution
Cool article – nice find, BB
Remember—IDiots have faith that’s impervious to mere trifles like fact to the contrary.
They are still the same lizards. Its not as if actual speciation has occured- they are just distant cousins. So its not evolution.
Just thought I’d say it first.
Actually, if I’m reading the below definition from Talk Origins right, it is evolution.
This is just Big Science saying anything they want to be evilution is evil-lution.
Ah, eeeeeeeeeeevvvvviiiillllllution. I see. Sorry you were apparently swayed so strongly by Expelled the Movie LH
Well if that is the case it must be a totally wonderful movie, because I don’t think it will be opening in Britain, and STILL I HAVE BEEN SWAYED BY IT. Just more proof of Jesus’ love!
The arguments of Big Science are so weak that as far as I can see not one of the Faithful have posted a comment on the Expelled site saying “Actually, you have a point there”. That just shows how weak “Big Science” is.
If there was any basis in it, the Article “15 answers to Creationist nonsense” would have convinced Centurion68 on the message board that followed it.
Those who have Faith are totally unmoved, because they know the Truth. In fact scientists have said we should believe in God. Occams Razor says we should accept the simpliest explanation, and Believing in a Divine Creator is much easier to understand.
Lucky!
If the lizards don’t turn into cats, it’s just adaptation, not evolution. Glory Gee to Beezuz!
If these lizards had really evolved, why are there still lizards on the other island.
No no no no no! You’re asking the wrong question! It should be, “Where’s the peanut butter?”
If evolution was true you could open a jar of penut butter and find it had turned into lizards
I posted on the Expelled site about Yoko sueing, then I added this
The next post was
Given what I wrote I couldn’t believe it so I posted this
Note after 4 days it is still waiting moderation.
Sounds more likely they might be debating weather or not to ban you/dump your post.
Creationists banning something that contradicts them? No, can can you possibly say this- it never crossed my mind. Are you saying I have been Expelled?
Muhahaahahahaahhahahahahaahahahahahaaaa!
No.
Haven’t you paid attention in creationology 101? First the peanut butter turns into a banana, then into a lizard!
Because Peanut Butter is the perfect form designed to fit in the palm of the human hand?
Ewww, MisterMook. Even in my most dissipated bachelor days, I only ever put one finger into the peanut butter jar.
LH- I suspect that Aneika didn’t read your post. But it doesn’t matter one way or another- what counts for these people is being on the right side, not being right.
Zilch the fact these people are impervious to facts was painfully obvious from the board following the “15 Answers…”, with the ID iots posting claims in direct contradiction- especially ‘more and more scientists think evolution is wrong’. Its just the fact that after I wrote with a comment about nazis, an cretinist immediately said that the US was becoming like Nazi Germany (except Hitler won the original election without trickery)
