[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] JK: [i]And [/i]evolved[i] into how we look today.[/i] You don't seem to know that there's a difference between traits being shared among family groups and actual "evolution." It's called "microevolution", as opposed to "macroevolution". Look it up. [i]Isn't natural selection a Darwinian idea?[/i] Yes. Darwin DID have some decent ideas. Different species arising through evolution just wasn't one of them, nor was it a logical outgrowth of them. Just because members of a certain species that have a certain trait are more likely to survive in a certain environment doesn't mean that they're also more likely to become incapable of reproducing with other specimines, and thus forming a new species. Tim: [i]"Natural selection", "evolution", "survival of the fittest"... They're all pretty much the same thing.[/i] No, they're not. See above. Rob: [i]Still, the space problem is there. Especially if you're bringing all the sauropods on board...[/i] Unless, of course, you bring young, or even unhatched eggs. No need to feed [i]them[/i], eh? There's also the question of exactly what would happen to all the species once they were in a completely enclosed environment, with no external time signatures. Have any experiments been done to that effect? Nimrod: [i]I don't understand, dinos were already extinct by the time of the flood, weren't they?[/i] Not necessarily. They could have been extinct, or they could have been brought as eggs, and later died out. Either way... [/QB][/QUOTE]
