It's actually pretty well explained how individual proteins evolve. It's been observed in several systems and we have everything from phylogenetic data to actual observations in model systems


I'd be interested to know more about this. Although I presume this protein evolution is genetically directed

To be fair to Dawkins, he has (finally) addressed the absolute lunacy of transgenderism

I think there's a good chance of him confessing in his belief in God before he dies

seems to me the left is obsessed with genital worship. penis pride.
Jewish senator Scott Weiner praises a transgender Satanist for his work promoting the LGBT community

Everyone is obsessed with genital worship when they are young lol

Why do you think she is a Satanist? And do you think the senator being Jewish is a problem? I don't know anything about either of them really, but the video doesn't seem too shocking to me, I'm from Canada so this sort of thing is standard fare lol

Note that this is not an explation of the origin of proteins, this assumes a protein already exists to evolve. We don't know how proteins came about as part of living organisms, but there are theories with compelling evidence.

Take a gene that makes a protein. Copy it. This happens pretty often.

Now mutate the promoter ahead of that gene so it isn't expressed. This turns off one of the copies of the protein.

Now, let it sit there for many generations and acquire random mutations.

Now due to random mutations, sometime down the line that promoter gets mutated back to be expressed again. It is now altered from the original. If it causes harm, the individual is disfavored and doesn't manage to mate. Maybe it mutated in a way to cause cells to die, or something. If it does something beneficial, like the same job as a different protein but more efficiently, it is kept around and that individual reproduces more efficiently. That protein now goes through the population as part of sexual reproduction.

You can do this with lots of proteins to get disparate functions from similar structures, and it's been observed in the genomes of related species. It's also how you get a similar mechanism for a flagella as the ATP pump, and explains why there's homology in those cases.



This has been studied to death in the past ~30 years and we have very strong evidence for this and other mechanisms of protein mutation.

Ohhh I see, I misunderstood.

Well it depends what you mean by normal, I expect many left wing politicians have praised transgender people in speeches like this, so I just don't find it very shocking in that sense.

No one ever has said a specific creator - God simply means the creator. It's not specific.

Different religions (Jew, Muslim, Christian) all disagree over what the creator wants for us. They don't disagree over the existence of the creator.


But all conceptualizations of a creator, at least those theistic in nature, seem to impute certain characteristics and meaning via religious belief that are quite confusing and seem like a leap from a base "creator".

atheists/antitheists are not the grand thinkers they believe themselves to be.

Agreed. Anime is a human right, gamer.

unlike repentance? can an unrepentant person even conceive the humility it takes to repent?

i was making light of what we were told during the lockdowns and the insanity. klaus schwab and the book covid19 2020 and the great reset. where they often talked of the "new normal".
the covid scam didnt quite full fill all the dreams the elitists had for the new world order. BLM has fizzled out. the 'pride community seems to be the new tool. its necessary to keep us divided.

Depends on if one is talking about the secular or religious versions of repentance.
