re: #157 lrsshadow

ok so then are you saying that Evolution has a engineering or intelligent effect of mutation? Otherwise it would just be a series of random mutations with the best mutation for creature being selected by natural events.

Being selected by natural events means “not random” Evolution doesn’t occur much in static environments where nothing ever changes. So you have Sharks who haven’t changed much since ancient times because their niches always have existed somewhat the same somewhere in the ocean. You have Tuatara’s who go through an amazing amount of random mutation who have stayed pretty much the same because their environment doesn’t change.
You can see environments affecting evolution in historic times however with changes in environment that gulls have undergone, do a google on “Ring Species”.
