That's a good example of adaptation to environment. It overlaps with Epigenetics. The unlocking of silent genes depending on variable factors. I find Epigenetics a fascinating and relatively new science.

Thanks for your link even if it reaches deaf ears :)

1. there are well over a million different life forms on the earth today

2. 99.9% of all life forms that ever existed is now extinct

3. you have nothing one step before it or one step after it

Maybe, that fish is JUST ANOTHER FORM OF LIFE and means absolutely nothing re: evolution.

And this article is a GREAT example of the difference between OBSERVABLE science and HISTORICAL (origins)science.

We all can observe what this fish does and how he does it...but the rest of the article is CONJECTURE about it's ORIGINS.

Christians have no fear of, nor dislike of OBSERVABLE science...indeed...we LOVE it and not only are many of the GIANTS of scientific history bible believers, current science is littered with good scientists who also believe the bible is the authority on origins.

No false dichotomy here.

What confuses people is that the word "science" conflates two different things: people use the word "science" for what is clearly historical science (beliefs about the past concerning origins) and for what is clearly observational/operational science (science based on a repeatable test, used to build technology)

Link to a short video explaining this by an Astrophysicist:

But thanks a BUNCH for bringing this up and allowing us to talk about God's creation again and again...I love it.

Keep up the good work.

Why can't the Christians leave us alone? They are always trying to prove us wrong! Atheist haters posting here prove we are right! Keep commenting on atheist posts, Christians. It keeps our non- religion before the public.
Damn, If I really thought like this, I'd shoot myself!!
