LOL I've seen the banana thing before. "Even the shape of the banana allows the entire process to be that much easier." No GTFO plz.

I do think Evolution is BS though. Natural selection is perfectly fine with me, and it makes sense. Even with natural selection you still retain the same species. I don't buy that humans evolve from something else or a fish is created from some amoeba. I don't buy that you get a new species from an existing one, without some type of intervention (cross-multi-breeding, for example).

umm... natural selection is the process through which evolution takes place... you cant say you think evolution is BS, but agree with natural selection, stupid: but you can say it the other way around,
natural selection is a theory to EXPLAIN how evolution takes place

I guess then you don't understand genetics, and how every member of a species isn't an exact duplicate of every other member of it's species.

I suppose you could say that is a type of evolution, but evolution in the way that people talk refers to apes turning into humans. Natural selection is simply a survival mechanism of a certain species. Examples are moths in London, changing from a white to black, to better suit themselves in the new urban environment experienced in the Second Industrial Revolution. The white moths kept being eaten because they stood out from the soot-covered buildings. That species type dwindled, leaving the black species to thrive in that particular environment.

Other examples are long-necked giraffes. Giraffes used to have relatively short necks. Through a natural process of birth (genetics just as the guy above me wrote), some giraffes developed longer necks. It enabled them to reach taller trees to gain more food once the food lower ran out. They survived, and through a long period of time, naturally they were the ones to reproduce, sending that genetic trait to their offspring.

In the end, they are still giraffes. They didn't morph into some other species. That's the distinction between natural selection and evolution. If you want to be technical, yes, natural selection is evolution, in the sense that a species adapts to an environment, and eventually changes. But scientists don't use that term in that sense. They use it to describe a complete species change. That is what I think is BS.

But why couldn't a whole species change after millions and millions of years? Your moth example is just a few hundred years of "evolution". Why can't that happen multiple times being compounded over the millions of years to create "new" species?
