Again, forgive my ignorance, but can someone tell me why these guys found these "transition stages" from a land mammal into an oceanic mammal in the middle of a desert. I do not claim much of an understanding of marine biology, I certainly do not have much of an understanding of them, but wouldn't you think to find them somewhere closer to water. Specifically closer to the ocean as it was "evolving" into an oceanic life form over "80-90 million years".
No, when we say give us transitional fossils, we mean the fossils of animals that are part-way through the "evolution". What I see is a tiger or some sort of large cat, go to something that looks more canine than feline, progressing to something that looks like a crocodile, going to something that is stupid looking, go to a whale. Forgive my ignorance here, but can someone help me understand how anything in that supports the claimed transition?
@LoricaLady Actually from the looks of it, you're the only one refusing to debate. You were asked a very simple question and you completely dodged it.
ANYONE: If you see no replies to some posters below they know they are on ignore for things like name calling, personal insults and refusing to actually debate by evasion of Qs asked. If you wish to address any of the same points you feel they have made I would be happy to respond. However, I debate only with those who are civil & objective and actually debate.
@LoricaLady If they actually answer questions that puts them miles ahead of you. You couldn't even answer my simple question regarding your assertion of the supposed strawman I used. So how did you ever feel competent to have a discussion regarding genetics? You should read up on the Dunning-Kruger effect.
That route? You mean the route of expecting you to actually support your claims instead of just letting you get away with throwing around empty accusations?
@TheJaredJommer I limit my time by debating with those who are civil & objective.It also helps if they actually debate and answer Qs. Note the number I left for you which you have totally evaded. Once the evo-ites start getting into the insult mode it always escalates. I have better things to do with my time. If I debated with all those that go that route I would need several life times. Ask yourself why you can't answer my Qs. Look outside the matrix box. The truth is there friend. Finis
@LoricaLady I just did, it's known as telomeric fusion, aka translocation.
No, you realize you've been utterly trounced here so you're attempting to save face by declaring that I've used imaginary ad hom attacks and fleeing as quickly as possible. Though given your apparent level of knowledge regarding biology in general, not speaking may not be such a bad idea.
@TheJaredJommer "It's explained in the vid..." "Since it's real science I wouldn't expect you to understand."When people really understand a concept they are able to articulate it with their own words. You avoid my Qs & like most YT evo fans, when pressed for actual evidence, when asked to answer Qs which you prefer to ignore - you have another strategy. Start insulting the your opponent! (Another logical fallacy you should look up is ad hominem.) I debate with the civil & objective. BYE!
@LoricaLady So your argument is that it's a strawman because you can't actually show that it's a strawman? No, your projection of fallacy has no affect on the empirical data supporting evolution.
'Give details
I asked for you to explain how my statement was a strawman and you utterly failed. Now you want me to answer your question after you dodged?

@LoricaLady So how was it a strawman? Be specific.
