KCFS Discussion Forum

Sunday, June 26, 2005

Lately, I've been posting a lot over on the KCFS discussion forums. I recently submitted an extremely long post that analyzed one of the many "interesting" claims of YEC Walter Brown. In his book, he claims that all members of the family Canidae are probably descended from a "wolflike animal" that was lucky enough to be taken on the Ark.

I attempted to demonstrate that his scenario was highly unlikely. Here is the post. Let me know what you think.

Here's a little taste of what I wrote:
"In summary, in order for Walt Brown’s dog microevolution scenario to actually work, he demands much more out of natural processes than the actual scientific evidence supports.

"The above analysis is just an overly verbose way of saying that Walt Brown’s dog “microevolution” scenario is fantastically unlikely. Walt apparently believes with uncompromising conviction that the survivors of a single, catastrophic, global flood were the ultimate source of the biological diversity we see today. Unfortunately, this belief forces him to construct scenarios that overstretch the ability of natural processes to produce biological change."
