#selection

Read through the most famous quotes by topic #selection




That natural selection can produce changes within a type is disputed by no one, not even the staunchest creationist. But that it can transform one species into another — that, in fact, has never been observed. ↗


— Robert J. Sawyer

The most essential prediction of Darwinism is that, given an astronomical number of chances, unintelligent processes can make seemingly-designed systems, ones of the complexity of those found in the cell. ID specifically denies this, predicting that in the absence of intelligent input no such systems would develop. So Darwinism and ID make clear, opposite predictions of what we should find when we examine genetic results from a stupendous number of organisms that are under relentless pressure from natural selection. The recent genetic results are a stringent test. The results: 1) Darwinism’s prediction is falsified; 2) Design’s prediction is confirmed. ↗

We have stopped natural selection from purifying the species because deep in our heart of hearts, we are all terrified that we won't make the cut. ↗

Multiply, vary, let the strongest live and the weakest die. ↗


— Charles Darwin


#nature

Things exist either because they have recently come into existence or because they have qualities that made them unlikely to be destroyed in the past. ↗

I hope you find someone you can't live without.I really do. And I hope you never have to know what it's like to have to try and live without them. ↗

I could show fight on natural selection having done and doing more for the progress of civilization than you seem inclined to admit. Remember what risk the nations of Europe ran, not so many centuries ago of being overwhelmed by the Turks, and how ridiculous such an idea now is! The more civilised so-called Caucasian races have beaten the Turkish hollow in the struggle for existence. Looking to the world at no very distant date, what an endless number of the lower races will have been eliminated by the higher civilized races throughout the world. ↗


— Charles Darwin

I have nothing to do with the selection of stories. I'm the reporter. ↗

Natural selection is anything but random. ↗

Design can never be an ultimate explanation for anything. It can only be a proximate explanation. A plane or a car is explained by a designer but that's because the designer himself, the engineer, is explained by natural selection. ↗
