Again what I have read, and what I read from other ATS members differs about this, but ATS members are telling me that evolution has a point not only in the creation of new species, but also in some of their destruction.
To quote Lewis Black, when I hear something like this, I reach for a fossil, and I go like, "Fossil!".
It's not all theories and hypotheses, there are dead animals to be found and pegged to a particular period in Earth history. And I thought everyone knew that. I guess I'm not very evolved after all.
large evolution bundle of theories and hypothesis.
Boy, what a logic fallacy. "Intended" by who exactly? By God our Lord? How can you prove a point by using arguments based on same? Weak mind. Very weak.
It's only a fallacy if you ignored the obvious points about diet.
Something has programmed all this life to somehow know what they are supposed to be eating.
You have to watch a different video to get the findings after that.
Those were earlier DNA tests that were later proven to be wrong.
prove it, prove it, no I didn't, it was close enough to the full diet, not in the eyes of the deer, I never did, I said forbs is not a word.
And I have, just because you lack the intelligence to understand it doesn't mean its not true.
The following test later proved that to be wrong.
Again you will have to do more research, as later tests proved that to be wrong.
I never tried, because I don't care, there is a difference but I'm sure in your aimless beliefs, and waddle, it probably means the world to you.
My father taught me something very important when I was a kid. I asked him, dad, do UFO's exist, and he turned to me with the straighest face and said let me tell you something, if you look up in the sky long enough, you just might see something.
If that were true, species would experiment on food and we never see that.
I was able to prove this argument based on the fact of the human diet, how we eat so many things from so many food groups, and most of them aren't nutritious to humans in any signficiant way.
Actually this isn't a pop quiz, anytime you remove someone from their food, they will either have to adapt by eating something else or starve.
Then you must be illiterate as I have spelled it out many times in the prior pages.
Well then let me sum it up for you...
For the 5th time forbs is not a word, would you look at the wiki you sent me listed as forb. Of course plethora means more than 2, you just don't know how to count. The deer diet is close enough.
Tests would match the idea that species that seem to be eating target food, would be found to be eating healthy. Those that aren't would be trying to pursue that which is missing by eating in the food group of the missing food.
I never begged for the answer, I believe you don't have the answer.
IF TARGET FOOD EXISTS, HOW DOES THIS DISPROVE EVOLUTION?
How can you prove a point by using arguments based on same?
Tooth, are you aware that when you refer to people as incredulous, its not an insult?
Tooth, Still waiting on why the shape of DNA is the same in MAN, apes, chimps cats and fish..kinda blows the whole off planet theory.
Being that I had never head of it, I didn't know it was plural.
Really!! REALLY!
You dont understand that adding an "s" to the end of the singular pluralizes it?
Here is the Wiki article on Forbs.
And this is the list of contents.
It's nice to see that you have eventually learned how to use the system tags.
I've emboldened the appropriate parts for you. to revert to one of you more childish tactics: "Maybe you should contact the people at Wiki and let them know they're not using words"
That would depend on who it was that made the error, you still never showed me a definition of forbs, so it wasn't me.
Anyway, this distraction technique of yours is becoming tiresome as you always revert to it when you are in an unsure position. Now you could just "man up" and admit that you made an error around the pluralisation of the word, but I really don't have high expectations for that.
you do realize that every time you get into a p155ing contest regarding grammar, you lose.
Now what the hell is wrong with google?
Thats fine, I expected nothing more form you than a quick Google search and a link to the first piece of information that you thought corroborated what you believe.
Oh cool, that makes sense.
However, bear this in mind, incredulous (first synonym - Skeptical) is the opposite of credulous and the main synonym for credulous is gullible.
And I would agree with you if only one single person was able to prove that I'm credulous.
Either way Incredulity is no insult, On a forum such as ATS, (Motto "Deny Ignorance") I would urge all people to maintain their incredulity and and not fall into the insane gullibility of advance credulity demonstrated by yourself.
No, even after you pointed it out, from what I can tell, I was using it in the context that I expected it to work in.
Anyway, it was just an observation. Didnt really expect you to come back with "Oh yeah, I didn't realize that".
Then again, I could have it wrong, there is always the possibility that you are/were fully aware of the correct meaning of the term and think that credulity is something to aspire to.
I don't discredit the science, I agree with it. It's just I think there is a big stretch between growing mutations in bacteria or viruses, and claiming that humans have a common ancestor shared with apes.
Why do you deflect? The point was about that you tried to discredit the science of evolution right off the bat by saying that is it
The section I quoted wasn't referring to evolution as a whole, it was referring to parts of evolution.
...and I pointed out to factual evidence that really mean that it's not a "hypothesis" anymore, evidence being remains of various animals that can be approximately dated using geological strata etc
You mean why do you want to try to dismiss the facts as just me pretending to believe in them? The facts are the facts, species are all eating the same diet within a species group. They also appear to know that what they are eating is healthy as they aren't doing the same thing with rocks and dirt. There is intelligence involved, and no matter how you slice it, there is intelligence behind that as well to programm the diets. No pretending here.
Why do you bother to start a thread, and PRETEND that you want to PROVE something, whereby the very thing that you PRETEND you want to prove is PART of your "PROOF"?

Shame on you for being a lazy fool. Pye did not publish his book about star child because it was a human skull. Your so wrong. You need to do more research like I have. While you at it produce some people that disagree with him since he is such a fraud.
Not true. The only tests done were conclusive and correct. Pye simply did not like the answer. He rejected the results because they showed what Pye did not want to see. That's like you and this fantasy of target foods. There is no evidence that the work was done a second time. We have a repetitive liar claiming that unnamed and unknown people have validated his fantasy.
Then shame on you again for presenting it to me in plural when you probably knew google wouldn't search it that way.
And I showed forbs is a word. I don't believe English is a second language for you. There is no excuse not knowing that adding an 's' to the end of a word makes it plural. And I did prove all of those including forb and forbs.
The only thing wrong in any of this is YOU. You constantly lie, then have the guts to call me the liar. You are the one that haven't backed up all of your claims, so at this point its still opinion.
I repetitively proved you have lied and I have repetitively showed you are wrong. I am astonished at anyone getting nearly 100% of things wrong.
There is a difference between trying and failing.
And this from someone unable to figure out a second grade question about the rock animals eat.
Thats on a different thread, this one is about Target food.
Prove that the test ever took place.
The new lab that determined it to be alien nuclear dna with human mtdna was listed in another thread.
Name the lab and the people that did the test. It's a lie by Pye.
I'm not begging for answers, I'm begging for you to back up any and all claims with some type of proof rather than inundating my thread with your opinions.
You are being untruthful. You whined. You begged for the answer and finally someone had to tell you the answer to a second grade question.
Sure, such a closed mind that you couldn't believe that I came up with it. The difference between accurate and precise is irrelivent as concise was the proper word I used, you need to look that one up. Gazers and browsers could be the same to a deer is all I'm concearned about. You have to realise that deer do not conform to the confines of what humans understand.
Learn the difference between accurate and precise.
Learn the difference between grazers and browsers.
Target food is still no more than a fantasy, a product of a closed mind that is unable and unwilling to see evidence.
Once again because you will never get anywhere with just your opinion.
I remember people pointing out a so-called UFO. As they tracked it across the sky I announced that it was going to disappear now. It did because it was a circumpolar satellite going into the Earth's shadow and the position of the shadow was easy to estimate. The close minded fools that night refused to believe it was just a satellite.
I have yet to find a wiki that agrees with you.
Again arguing from your personal ignorance. Animals do and evidence has been supplied by multiple posters. You are wrong - completely wrong
Then in a way, that food would not be healthy for them.
That's not proof. It is an argument based on your personal ignorance of the subject.
Ruminants die if they eat highly nutritious food. They develop a disease called acidosis
Nope, they browse the same food group of what ever is missing.
So they do experiment. You know that animals experiment.
Just because your incredulous doesn't make it a fantasy.
You've stated what this fantasy is, but nothing more. Not a drop of evidence has been offered
Whats the matter, in denial much ?? I have told you and told you and you don't listen, I even shared a link proving that deer only eat bark when they are starving. It's not a NORMAL part of their diet. Just as I have also told you that a starving species could eat rocks or dirt, you would turn around and say that I'm contradicting myslef. We are talking about normal diets, not starving diets. Get that through your head.
That is a rough summary. It is not complete. The wikipedia entry for deer did not include bark. That was not complete.
I'm sorry but google doesn't recognize the word forbs. The first deer diet that I found was close enough to the full diet.
You are a liar I already provided a link to forbs. It is in this post.
www.abovetopsecret.com...
The deer diet is close enough? Are you referring to your mistaken posting? What are you referring to?
Not at all, the work is allready done, its just an issue of researching or searching diets to see who fits the bill. You would first have to identify species that are eating target foods only, and the only one that comes to mind for sure is abalone, then asking if he appears to be healthy. That however could be where the problem starts.
So you don't know. You suggest that tests could be done, but nothing has been done. So now you have some guesses here. Any evidence to support these guesses?
Probably hard to run a test on a fantasy.
did you have a failing thread about eating rocks and decide to try it out here? Why don't you just start a thread about eating rocks.
The answer was already given for the rock that animals eat. Did you miss that part? It is salt. That is why connector put up an image of popcorn. You responded to his post. It was a great hint. Did you beg? Yes you did
To bad I don't think your qualified to grade anyone else. Anyone that actually thinks that nutrition facts actually don't share nutrition information, or anyone that doesn't back up their opinions with proof.

20. F - for believing Pye's lies
I'm sorry but google doesn't recognize the word forbs
Being that I had never head of it, I didn't know it was plural.
Google still doesn't pick up a tag for searching forbs. It will locate forb however. Sorry not my faut and I'm not sure if its wikis faults for the absent of the tag.
That would depend on who it was that made the error, you still never showed me a definition of forbs, so it wasn't me.

Appetites — perceptions of need — usually link directly to physiological control systems and fall into a general category called behavioral homeostasis.
The situation for studying operant conditioning of Aplysia feeding behavior is almost ideal: 1. In search for food, the animals display seemingly random bites for food, even without any external stimuli triggering the bite (Kupfermann, 1974).
Yes the auto correction I get is forbes.
that's because google thinks you mean forbes( very popular seach term)....and auto suggests that. If will then say "search for forbs instead". The simple tricks of using google correctly.....
So If I'm not using it correctly please tell me how I'm suppose to get forbs out of forbes?
Notice on the link I provided....it is now suggesting "forbes". Learn how to use google properly....
Question: do you realize that google results are different for everyone? It is based not only based on popularly of search, but paid promotion, geographical region and previous search / browsing history
