I understand that, and still it would have been the best connection for evolution considering everything I have been presented with so far.
The fact that you think the existence of the crocoduck would support evolution further proves how little you actually know about the scientific theory you're trying to argue against. The existence of a crocoduck, as pictured in XYZ's post, would actually falsify the theory of evolution, not support it
I wasn't making anything up, it was a quote, and I provided the link, which was first given to me.
Just making stuff up now, lol. Somehow all the germ plasm in the world stops anymore mutations from ever occurring if the population of the whole grows at a rate above 0%? How do they contact each other, do they use the cloud, maybe they send out mass tweets?
So now your admitting we are no longer evolving at this time, why is that exactly?
It has been confirmed that humans evolved...
Due to the fact that its based on death rate, and our death rate has gone down yes it does.
The Wiki article doesn't claim humans aren't evolving any longer...and why would they? We are clearly still evolving.
Look...how about you actually bother doing some research before claiming stuff that 5min of research could have proven nonsense?
This is also why Pye said that its NOT blood, at least not any type of blood that we are familliar with because it's red not black, and still sitting there.
for what it's worth "he" is a "she" and she obviously hasn't a clue what I'm talking about. When I mentioned the red residue inside the cancellous holes, she said it's obviously dried blood. Dried blood inside 900 year old bone? First of all when blood dries it turns black and then after bacteria have scoured it from the bone there is nothing left but pure white bone. She has no empirical evidence to support anything she's been saying.
things like that lead me to believe she hasn't done her homework and I don't have time for poseurs

I was only saying it would be the closest thing at this point if it was real.

Again I was being sarcastic meaning if it were possible, of course knowing its not, its the closest thing to proof that evolution would have at this point.
Once again proving that you don't even understand the scientific theory you're trying to argue against. The existence of a crocoduck would be the exact opposite of what you're claiming it is. You're claiming that if it were real, it would be the closest thing to "proof"* of evolution that exists. I, and others, have pointed out to you that if it were real it would completely falsify the theory of evolution. Ergo, it's the opposite of what you claim it to be.
* I placed "proof" in quotes because you still seem unaware of what constitutes "proof" vs. "evidence". You repeatedly use them interchangeably when they mean two completely different things when
It has to be the biggest crock (no pun intended) I have ever heard of. Species morphing into other things, and even odder is how they leave no trace, and aren't showing any signs of this currently happening. With exception to viruses and specific marine life anyhow. Because we all know how easy it is to compare our genetics to these things, right?
so let me see if I have this correctly: you guys are saying that it's perfectly reasonable that all of a sudden or due to climate change or some other environmental stress, a new species can basically emerge by a random mutation that results in a complete transformation of morphology and physiology within a few generations, or something like that? You're saying you wouldn't have the crocoduck because the changes don't happen like a blending from one species to another but instead make these massive jumps into a whole separate other species then. Is that right? Does it happen with one individual entity of that species or simultaneously across several of the species randomly? or how do you explain these jumps across some pretty wide gaps and how does time factor in to that? Can you guys dumb it down or something so it makes sense?

typical inability to explain wtf you mean. thanks

Well first of all I never said it would be proof, you need to learn how to read. Especially on some of the links I have been provided where they clearly state they are not confirmed.
And you've now claimed it for a third time, and are completely wrong for a third time. Hypothetically, if the crocoduck existed, it would falsify evolution, not prove it as you keep claiming it would. The fact that you keep claiming the crocoduck would prove evolution once again shows how little you know about the scientific theory
