More cut and paste nonsense from creationists websites?

1)  Once again, SS and others like him fail to understand what they read.  This is what Sanjuan and Elena really wrote (my emphasis) and in no way falsifies modern theory:

Whether systematic genetic interactions (epistasis) occur at the genomic scale remains a challenging topic in evolutionary biology. Epistasis should make a significant contribution to variation in complex traits and influence the evolution of genetic systems as sex, diploidy, dominance, or the contamination of genomes with deleterious mutations. We have collected data from widely different organisms and quantified epistasis in a common, per-generation scale. Simpler genomes, such as those of RNA viruses, display antagonistic epistasis (mutations have smaller effects together than expected); bacterial microorganisms do not apparently deviate from independent effects, whereas in multicellular eukaryotes, a transition toward synergistic epistasis occurs (mutations have larger effects together than expected). We propose that antagonistic epistasis might be a property of compact genomes with few nonpleiotropic biological functions, whereas in complex genomes, synergism might emerge from mutational robustness.

2)  I am always surprised when people go to so much effort to produce garbage.

3) On several cases, I and others have shown that this is not so.   Yet you keep repeating it in hopes of making it true.   The beaks did not "evolve", rather the conditions made it so that one aspect of the population was over-represented.  When conditions reversed the opposite happened.  Industrial melanism is clearly explained.   The moths always had a subsection that carried the dark pigmented gene, and as conditions changed the light moths suffered predation at greater rates to change the make up of the population, but the light colored gene is still in the population.

 Learn the subject, before you start to criticize.

4) There is mountain of homonid bones, leading back to the earliest primates.   You are just making up more lies.

5) Several animals have very clear and complete fossil evidence that shows the transition from the previoius form to their mondern form.    This is also the case for some animals that came to a dead end and are now extinct.

6) Your numbers are made up, your math sucks as does you reasoning abilities.

Your question regarding the uniquely human ability to use tool is only another indication that you don't understand anything about evolution - and I doubt you can solve calculus equations.   More than likely you are just parrotting or cut/paste what you seen in creationists sites like ICR and their like.

Why are we the only ones who get married, wear clothing? This is a philophical question and not related to evolution.  Many cultures exist where nudity is not a source of shame or sexual expression.   Because you follow your little mythology book like most of western society, you have body shame and associate nudity with sex which you think as dirty and shameful.  

7) Humans and monkeys and mice and insects all share the same sets of genes. No they don't.   They have some ancestral commonalities, but are also very different in function, loci and size.  If you knew how to use BLAST you know this is another false statement.   

8) Monkeys cannot breed with humans. If they could, we'd have to do some thinking on the subject of speciation and evolution

9) Not having all the answers does not make a mythology correct.   You primitive belief in supernatual origins, answers nothing - in a clear case of hypocrisy you demand that scientists have all the answers yet you blindly accept a mythology that offers no rational answer

10) The bible is a collection of stories collected from 66 books,  it is no different from any other book of fiction be it dianetics, torah, Koran or any other book or religion claiming to know what god wants.
