Does DaveScot say more them he means to?
| Quote | | How can we say whether or not random mutation and natural selection was sufficient to produce the end state when we don’t know what the start state was? |
He continues digging
| Quote | | And no, we don’t need to know anything at all about the intelligent designer. All we need to know is what is reasonably possible absent a designer. |
Huh? He explains...
| Quote | | If the change we observe goes beyond what we believe is reasonably possible without a designer then we make a design inference. |
Ahh, it's all clear now. So, was that an example of the explanatory filter then?
Of course the legendary DS ego makes it's inevitable appearance
| Quote | Is this rocket science or something so complex that it just goes over the heads of Darwin’s faithful so I might as well be trying to teach a hamster how to balance a checkbook as describe how to make a design inference to an ebola boy?
It’s very frustrating because this is just straightforward, simple problem solving to me. |
Simple problem solving? Then please do demonstrate. Give us a worked example!
So Davescot, I know you read this thread.
Please demonstrate the design inference for me. In the same message you say
| Quote | Of course we’ll have to make more estimations of the probabilistic resources such as how long the period of time rm+ns had to work, how many potential replications (opportunities to produce change), and the mutation rate of the organism.
We could get all that, or at least a close enough approximation, just by knowing the species from which the sequence came. In the real world we would know the species we were dealing with. |
So, pick an organism/sequence that has the documentation you desire and attempt the "design inference" please.

I also mentioned that He'd have to give me a thorough explanation as to *why* I must "eat human babies".

if there are even critical flaws in Gauger’s work, the evo mat narrative cannot stand
