If you don’t understand it, maybe you should take some biology courses. I’d
rather believe someone with a PhD or MD than someone who’s done a lot of
“research” on the internet.

I'm afraid some people you can't even discuss things with - because they
don't approach the world in any sort of rational way. The clues are
often in the dogmatic, extreme way they put their case. Unfortunately
you get a higher percentage of the nutters here than you meet in real life.

Anyway killfiles work.

So you do understand how not-alive things evolve? That's quite
interesting, could you share your understanding of this. I know you won't
because "it's not your job to 'educate' someone like me", yes.

Yes. You did use the proper verb ... »believe« ... trust and belief into
the medical system that 3rd cause of death in US ... I rather think myself
and not blindly »believe« what ever is spoon fed to us.

Yes, these types this one Peter repsesents are sure rather fanatic and
cannot have decent discussion between people who have different opinions.

Of course they do. But using kill files to hide from the views one doesn't
agree with is rather telling of character. Then again, living in a echo

I must clear this badly written second paragraph. I was talking about
medical system that is so slppy that medical errors are 3rd leading cause
of deaths in US.

Sorry for inconvenience ...

Evolution does not require life. Evolution requires reproduction
with changes, fitness tests that control reproduction and iteration nothing
more. It's an extremely effective way of seeking local optima in a phase
space. Look into evolutionary algorithms (aka genetic algorithms) and the
use of evolution in design (there's at least one wing profile in use that
was evolved in simulation first).

Fair, but "viruses" do not reproduction ... because they are non-living.
Reproduction ability is one of the biological definitions you need for
little thing called »life« ...

Appeal to authority. Classical logical fallacy. It's the Catholic way.
It's the way of all cultic thinking. 'Science' is a religion and only
those approved by the 'priesthood' have a right to speak. In this case
the occult degrees system is the authority. The occult system of degrees
in education originates in the system of degrees of the solar worship
cult of Mithras/Bel. The little black 'cube' hat is analogous to the
black cube of the Muslim cult. It shows conformity, uniformity with the
system.

Victims of this occultic mind-rape appeal to the authority of men who
depend on a 'system' for their sustenance. They reject self-sufficient,
self-directed, independent men who depend on themselves and reason.

Oil and water don't mix. Capable men who can stand on their own feet and
make their own decisions are always held in suspicion and contempt by
men who depend on authority for their false sense of security.

You cannot reason with such men. You can convince them that politicians
can be bought. But it is even easier to buy a scientist. It is easier
yet to put a college professor in your pocket. Even easier than that is
housing a 'journalist' in your purse.

Offering hospitals to intubate patients to death for a $38,000 payout
per death certificate has a word: bribery. It is also solicitation to
commit murder by medical neglect.

Rather than dealing with observable, provable facts like this they want
to establish themselves on a foundation of arguments over a virus that
no one has seen or proven to even exist. Then they demand that you prove
the virus doesn't exist, or you're the kook.

The heavy die-hards prefer a chili feast in a hermetically-sealed fart

If you wear a astronaut suit you can recycle your own gas to help the

Evolution does not require that the reproduction be self contained,
simply that it involves imperfect copying. Viruses reproduce very
effectively with the aid of a cell.

That was the goal. Research 'The Milgram Experiment' to see how
authority figures use their authority to get people to commit atrocities
in the name of a good cause.

Okay, I wasn’t going to contribute to this madness any more, but just one
more thought. If you don’t want to believe people with knowledge and
experience, where are you going to get your information? Are you going to
do research yourself to validate your ideas? Are you just going to pull an
answer out of your head (or other oriface)? The days are long gone when a
talented amateur can make major discoveries. Most science now (in most
fields) takes lots of money for big labs, lots of equipment, and lots of
people. I suppose you could also read some yahoo’s blog or watch OAN to
get the “truth.”

Classical logical fallacy. Just because all living things reproduce,
this doesn't restrict reproduction to living things.

Never seen to happen, "viruses" reproducing, it's just theory. And if they
cannot reproduce themselves, they doesn't qualify as living. Says
biologists, not me.

Still I don't get how non-living things are capable to evolve. With that
train of thought, when you photocopy something, that is also evolution,
since it's imperfect copying of non-living thing.

Prove me wrong!

So you call all the biologists having this "classical logical fallacy"
then. It's their thinking that to be alive one must have to have ability
to reproduce.

But I know you know they are in wrong!

Can you name those non-living things that reproduce, save "viruses"?

Evolution requires three things:

1: Reproduction with changes
2: Fitness tests that control the reproduction (to some extent)
3: Iteration

Your example had only one of the three necessary ingredients.
