This is a normal post What's your point?
You seem a bit right wing on this issue.

Are you convoluting evolution with speciation?

Can you stop steering every conversation onto politics please? It's getting very boring. TIA.

This is a normal post Are you mistaking me for someone else?
Complaining that X is too political is a bit, er, right wing.

I just checked all my posts on this page, this is the only time I mentioned politics. At a push you could say my contribution to the golf discussion was political, but only if you are inclined to categorise environmental concerns as politics.

I'm worried you might have lost a tiny little bit of your mind.

This is a normal post No point. I read an interesting article on lead pollution in alpine ice and snow though.
I’m yet to be convinced that evolution can take decades rather than millennia, but the moth picture was pretty and its story was interesting too. I’m not going to ask what your point is, for reasons that’ll be abundantly clear to many on here.

This is a normal post Derp.
It's pretty obvious that you're convoluting evolution and speciation.

There's no onus on reality to make sense to you. If you open your mind to a fact based world view, your outlook will improve and people will find you more attractive.

This is a normal post You’re just a twat that wants a fight. It’s very boring.

This is a normal post He says, fighting, adding nothing.
I think if you really applied yourself you'd understand the difference between evolution and speciation and be able to insult me at the same time.

This is a normal post Evolution has been observed in real time in birds

This is a normal post Hmmm, evolution is more dynamic than I had previously thought.
But I was hoping for a video of a bird evolving in front of my eyes.

What kind of pace is human evolution going at? I know through better nutrition and health care we’re bigger, stronger and cleverer generally, but has something really dramatic happened yet? Are babies without an appendix coming soon? What kind of effect will the prevalence of IVF have on natural selection and therefore genetic evolution? I really should just google this, shouldn’t I?

This is a normal post I'm pretty sure humans are actually going backwards

This is a normal post Technology could be detrimental to the evolution of our brains in the long term.
In a similar way to how the domestication of the dog took evolutionary pressure off our sense of smell, the development of computers and communication technology could be taking pressure off our need to reason and retain information.
