Re: Natural selection is proven wrong

... to speciate depends on its genetic learning rate (how fast it gains or changes new information/genes). Sexual reproduction has a good amount of crossover exchange which greatly accelerates the ability to adapt and change. Asexual reproducers such as E. coli produce clones of itself which are ...

Any SOLID arguments against evolution?

... because they never existed. Maybe I need to include a little on the missing transitionals in the theory. Sexual reproduction has a good amount of crossover exchange which greatly accelerates the ability to adapt and change. Yes completely true within designed kinds.The genetic material between ...
