Intelligent Reasoning

Promoting, advancing and defending Intelligent Design via data, logic and Intelligent Reasoning and exposing the alleged theory of evolution as the nonsense it is. I also educate evotards about ID and the alleged theory of evolution one tard at a time and sometimes in groups

The "Arrival of the Fittest" has Arrived

-
OK it looks like the "Arrival of the Fittest" will be my first book I read this year that allegedly supports evolutionism. However it isn't starting out so good with the author talking about the "power" of natural selection- NS has proven to be impotent and then also saying that natural selection means only the best adapted get through its filter- we know anything that is good enough gets through. Hopefully he was just paraphrasing Darwin but we will find out as I am only in the first chapter.

The author does refute keith s's contention that unguided evolution predicts an objective nested hierarchy- and yes, that also means Andreas Schueler owes me $10,000 (US).

The book makes a big promise and we will see if it delivers.

    You still haven't answered the question:

    In your approach to cardinal numbers, N being the cardinal associated with the integers if, as you claim,

    N/2, N/4, N/8, N/16 . . .

    is a decreasing sequence of infinite cardinals with a lower bound LB then is LB the smallest infinite cardinal number?

    Yes or no?

    You're making a claim, you have to defend it or retreat. Not answering is retreating.

    Jerad, You haven't answered anything- never. Not answering is retreating.

    Find that elusive theory of evolution, Jerad.

    Joe, I am awaiting the review. Do you need help with some of the big words? Try sounding them out.

    Well WS, there hasn't been anything on the arrival of the fittest. Quite a bit on the robust nature of metabolic networks, protein networks and regulatory networks. But nothing on how natural selection or any other materialistic process could do it.

    So all in all it was informative but didn't do what it set out to do. The author has no idea how unguided processes could have done it- build those networks, he just assumes it happened and then there was enough time to do the rest- because here we are!

    Quite disappointing for unguided evolution but it does have some positive ramifications for ID.
