  • Adam Boulton is unusual in the Sky news world.

    He's intelligent, non judgemental, educated and clearly a free thinking atheist.

    I wonder what his relationship with the fool Eamonn Holmes is like?

  • @Picklezorz more like religion is ignorant and disrepectful towards him lol

  • To me we can look at the variety of dog species that we have produced via un-natural selection in a VERY short period of time - the concept that natural selection can produce such variation we see over millions of years seems perfectly plausible.

  • @Silversong88 Sorry - thought you were a creationist. A terrible slur on your character, I know, so forgive me :)

  • @Ellie8969 Sorry if I didn't come across clearly, I agree with you. Natural selection is consequential, not random. But then again, mutations are also consequential within a certain degree of hindsight

  • @Silversong88 Natural selection is not random - the mutations that drive natural selection are.

    Mutations can be beneficial, disadvantageous or neutral. Clearly a beneficial mutation confers advantage which allows the organism a better chance of survival which leads to it passing on the beneficial gene.

  • @thelogster

    random/non random

    @thelogster

    nature selects (with no consciousness of doing it of course) the genes that aids an organisms survival

    A dark colour moth on a dark tree will not be spotted by predators a lighter moth with less pigment will be. The pigmented moth will become dominant as that will survive to reproduce. A non random process. Dark tree – random. Gene shuffling recombination Mutation causing less/ more pigment – random.

  • @thelogster Who said it started by a random process? The "randomess" of initiation is simply a way of denoting a lack of understanding or information. Once it is understood it is random no more..

  • "natural selection is a non random process", and yet it is initiated by a random process, so how is natural selection not a random process again ??
