Do you believe in evolution?

[xyzzy]

how do you explain the fact that a dog has never given birth to a cat

...the theory of evolution doesn't suggest that any such thing will occur.

It states that small mutations will occur, and that over many generations, species will completely change.

And a dog turning into a cat doesn't make any sense, even on a long-term scale. The required mutations wouldn't be beneficial to the dog-thing; perhaps a dog gaining wolf-like characteristics (and thus reverting back to the non-tame father) would be beneficial if, say, humans suddenly all died.

The theory of evolution is that microevolution will, after a long period of time, lead to macroevolution. Psuedoscience of dogs magically transforming into cats is stupid.

so how do you explain that the second law of thermodynamics means evolution is impossible unless there's some huge energy source out there pumping energy into earth

...

What?

I'm sorry, you've lost me. You're saying... mutations which do occur in all species... and are testable... that theoretically lead to large-scale changes... are impossible because there's not enough energy?

Do you have any idea how reproduction works? (And no, I don't mean in

that

sense, I mean, how DNA is transferred...) Or how any early development works? Just because there's alterations occuring doesn't mean we'll run out of energy.
