[QUOTE="The_Quiet_One, post: 8484141, member: 614562"] Your actions say otherwise. You seem to really try to prove yourself to all of us internet peons with your years of such and such experience or your driver(s) that you designed *shrug* Lol, I could care less about the theory of evolution itself beyond the fact you said it violated the conservation of energy. You're taking the conservation of energy way out of context. it makes me think you don'tfully grasp the conservation of energy nor even the laws of thermodynamics ....An organism is not an isolated system otherwise it would die quite quickly from not having energy intake (think a Big Mac).
