Took all of 2 minutes to get that lot. All intentional tool manufacture and use.
 
It is, but no more so than other tool making for specific and immediate use already well documented, wouldn't you agree?

I dont disagree mate, the point i was making was that the significance lies in that it might cast a light on how the early hominids developed stone tools in the first place: maybe they were doing the same thing, smashing stones together and unintentionally creating these sharp shards until one of them noticed the sharp shards could be used to cut stuff. Maybe monkeys have entered the stone age? and humans not as unique as people think we are, but you have already mentioned that before.
 
I think one of the clearest demonstrations of evolution and not a creator is DNA and those crazy European science guys.

There was a group of crazy European science guys, that I think seriously need to be watched.
They took the genes from a mouse which makes the eye and swapped it with the genes that makes the eye in a fruit fly.

What happened.
I guessed some Frankenstein thing.
No The Mouse genes makes an eye in the fly, and it makes a perfect fly's eye.

Two creatures that branches from each other over 150 million years ago and they can swap DNA like sisters.

If you built the first plough would you build into it spare parts for an iPhone?

This is 100 percent true btw, i stopped asking people if they believe in evolution or not, i just ask if they understand it, and everyone seems to say yes, but when we start discussing theres always this "religious science" that comes inbetween, that no evolutionary biologist have ever said.

thankfully we have evolved on from this P35, this was probably what you looked like after the hawks 3peat of 20 million years BC:)

The election result in the US is a hit on claims we have evolved in recent times.
Many more Neanderthals interbred in the Americas obviously...

But but evolution is not proven, species diverging is an unseen phenomenon i thought? well guess what? gods workshop is working overtime

With support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), Bree Rosenblum and her team are studying evolution in action. White Sands lizards are undergoing adaptation and speciation on an extraordinarily rapid timescale. The lizards have become white to camouflage against predators, and may even be diverging into new species.

this will shed a lot of light on how and why there is genetic divergence. Fascinating article as this might change the way we look at evolution.
We found that when animals huddle in larger groups, their genes for regulating temperature evolve faster, even though there is less pressure to adapt to the cold environment because of the warmth of the huddle. This shows that an organism's evolution doesn't just depend on its environment but also on how it behaves.


To do this, we built a computer model simulating how the species' genes changed and were passed on over multiple generations. When the effects of huddling were built into the computer model, the reduced pressure to adapt was actually found to accelerate evolution of the genes controlling heat production and heat loss.
Why was this? Well, when there's less pressure to evolve, the genes are freer to experiment. When two related genes (or sets of genes) are well adapted to the environment, mutation of one gene may have catastrophic consequences for the species unless the other gene mutates at the same time in a complementary way.

Why are televangelist pagans posting here? stop polluting really. There is a god thread you can post your rubbish. If you want to argue against evolution cite your argument WITH CREDIBLE sources. Apparently thats too hard to do for some.
