   Hate to break it to you, Calvin, but the lead geneticist at Cornell wrote a book on how our genes are failing at the rate of 150 to 500 errors in our genetic codes every generation. (That is one thing that sci-fi like SG1 got right, with an older race literally dying out from cumulative genetic errors. They tried cloning, but it only worked to a certain point.) The cumulative deletarious mutations alone would disprove the notion of evolution— we are devolving at a quantifiable rate. About 15,000 errors have been catalogued and every human has a bunch of them. Only one genetic error that we know of— and it causes sickle-cell anemia— could be thought to be partially beneficial, because it gives some protection from malaria. The only good thing I know of out of the HCERA and PPACA was the elimination of the feeding frenzy on “pre-existing conditions.” It was getting to the point of doing genetic tests to determine who had what “pre-existing condition”, which is like wasting $1000 to save $10 since everyone has them.

   And then there are all the females who think that they should have had a tail and get a “Tail Removal Scar” tattooed on.

   @Nabuquduriuzhur

   You have it backwards; as evolution is unarguable by any scientific standards, what that demonstrates is that there’s something missing or wrong with either the research or conclusion (a bit like scientists using aerodynamics to “prove” that bumblebees can’t fly, for example).

    So, are we gonna go back to being four-legged and have a tail?
    No tail on Calvin.
    No pants on Hobbes.

    The culmination of creation?
    Then I would say “God” aimed really low, and took what he could get…
