Most evolutionists hinge on some belief about shared ancestry. This DOES NOT prove evolution. It's backwards. There is NO evidence for a working, functional evolution. And, in fact, all of the "evidence" for common ancestry can be attributed to common Design elements. If you can't solve the problem going forward, to where it actually becomes useful, and real, then you believe in a new age fairy tale, taken all together. A false religion of so-called science that is a DILLUSION. Fate is not without a sense of irony, I suppose. The Bible has always made the same claim about what it is, and where it comes from, and still stands firm on testable, repeatable, observable scientific phenomena.

Snowflakes self assemble based on some pretty simple rules embedded in the physics of reality. There is no need for a carver to make the structure.

And evolution is not "trial and error". Its more like - change happens spontaneously all the time - some of those changes work better than others at helping make babies. Those changes are carried forward in the babies and over time they make dramatic differences in lifeforms.

Is it possible you don't really understand what evolution is?

Is it possible that we don't understand how anything works, including the rules, and we have a very primitive understanding of reality?

YES - its likely. We know very little.

Ok and evolution has nothing to do with physics. Its just like...there. yes maybe God isn't guiding everything. Or maybe God is. Maybe everything in existence is set up so we purposefully will never understand it. Because God wills it

Not true at all. All of science is physics. Physics is just the set of rules that describe the basic operations the universe.

And if a god is playing games to make it look like it does not exist - great. It has nothing to do with what I can know about this universe.

But just because we don't know everything does not mean we cannot build models about the world based on what information we have.

So, what models exist that make Darwinian predictions?

I use evolutionary algorithms every day in software engineering. You can put a fast replicating low load organism like yeast onto a task to evolve say an ability to process a chemical like lactase. The code for it is not in the initial spawned runs - but if you break off batches and increase the amount of lactose slowly - and cross breed the best surviving lineages - eventually you will hit upon a family of them that can process the lactose.

This is just because there is constant random drift. When a selection pressure - like the existence of a food source is available in a food scarce context, a geographic barrier, a container barrier - really anything that challenges organisms in a population ---- over time the ones that remain will be the descendants of ever better survivors in the selection context.

Its not really a hard idea to understand and requires no magic or force of god. Its built into the nature of reality. If I was a god - I would use evolution too because its so simple and explores an IMMENSE problem space in a massively parallel manner.

Does not mean we will ever understand. Science vs. God. Who will win
